A seafront wedding venue in Florya, Istanbul

For a destination wedding, the practical side matters as much as the look:
- Your guests can stay, eat and celebrate in one place, with 306 rooms and suites on site.

Good to know
Planning tips for a Crowne Plaza Istanbul Florya wedding
A wedding at a seafront hotel runs smoothly when a few details are settled early. With Ramarossi, one team looks after them for you:
- Guest rooms. Plan your guests' rooms before you send invitations, so family and friends can stay at the hotel where the wedding takes place.
- Getting around. Florya is on the European side, away from the historic centre. For welcome days and sightseeing, we plan transfers, or guests can take the train from Florya Akvaryum station towards the city's sights.
- Music and timings. Outdoor music may have an end time set by the hotel. Plan the ceremony outside and the party indoors if you want to dance late.
- Weather. Terraces by the sea can be breezy in the evening. Keep an indoor plan in the Admiral Ballroom for spring and autumn dates.
