Why couples choose it
A sandy beach and lagoon near Milas-Bodrum Airport
Le Méridien Bodrum opened in 2017 as LUX* Bodrum Resort & Residences and now trades under Marriott’s Le Méridien brand. It is set across 83 acres of secluded coastline at Adabükü, with 650 m of soft sand, a lagoon seawater pool and a lawn by the sea.
The hotel offers weddings and describes the sandy beach for the ceremony and the lagoon, with its Aegean views, for the reception. Its panoramic meeting hall is 270 m² and seats about 60 at a banquet, so for a larger dinner we look at the lawn, the garden and the beach.
Stella, Toro, Bodrum Blue and the Peninsula Bar over the sea, Vitalica Wellness and a kids’ club for ages 4 to 12 give your guests a holiday around the wedding. The resort is about 15 km from Milas-Bodrum Airport, which keeps transfers short, and about 29 km from Bodrum town.
- 650 m of soft sand on a secluded coast.
- A lagoon seawater pool for the reception.
- About 15 km from Milas-Bodrum Airport.
- Residences and villas for families.

Where a Le Méridien Bodrum wedding can take place

The beach
650 m of soft sand, which the hotel offers for a wedding ceremony.
Lagoon pool deck
The lagoon seawater pool with its Aegean views, which the hotel offers for a reception. The lagoon is for guests aged 16 and over, so we plan a separate space if children attend.

A sample wedding day
Your wedding day at Le Méridien Bodrum
Every wedding we plan is designed around the couple, but a day at Le Méridien Bodrum could flow like this.
Getting ready
The couple can get ready in a suite, residence or villa, while guests spend the day on the beach or by the pools.
Ceremony on the beach
If the beach is available for your date, the ceremony can take place on the sand in the late afternoon, when the heat has eased.
Cocktail by the lagoon
While your guests enjoy a cocktail by the lagoon pool, you take portraits on the beach and the lawn in the evening light.
Dinner and dancing
Dinner can be served on the lawn or in the garden in summer. If you want to dance late, we plan where the party moves.
Good to know
Planning tips for a Le Méridien Bodrum wedding
A wedding at a resort near Bodrum runs smoothly when a few details are settled early. With Ramarossi, one team looks after them for you:
- Location. The resort is in Milas, about 29 km from Bodrum town, so we plan transfers for guests who want an evening in the town.
- Season. The hotel does not publish season dates, so we confirm what is open for your year before you fix the wedding date. July and August are hot, and an evening ceremony is more comfortable then.
- 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.
- Guest rooms. If your guest list is larger than the hotel's 112 rooms, suites, residences and villas can hold, we help you book rooms nearby and plan the transfers.

Can we have a legal (civil) wedding at Le Méridien Bodrum?
In Turkey, a legal marriage is performed by an authorised marriage officer from the local municipality. Couples from abroad usually need passports, birth certificates, a certificate of no impediment from their own country and a health report from a public hospital, with official Turkish translations of foreign documents, and the exact list depends on your nationality. Whether the officer can come to the resort is decided by the municipality, so we check this for your date. You can also marry legally at home and hold a symbolic ceremony in Bodrum, if you prefer.
Where can we hold a welcome dinner or henna night?
Bodrum Blue, Toro and the Peninsula Bar are options to look at for a henna or Mehndi night or a welcome dinner. We plan each event of your wedding week so it has its own setting.
