Planning tips for a Susona Bodrum wedding
A wedding at a Bodrum resort runs smoothly when a few details are settled early. With Ramarossi, one team looks after them for you:
- Season. The resort opens in spring and closes for the winter, so we confirm its dates for your year before you fix the wedding date. July and August are hot, and an evening ceremony is more comfortable then.
- Wind. Summer afternoons on the Aegean can be windy. We plan décor that holds in the wind and keep a sheltered option ready for the ceremony.
- 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 76 rooms, suites and villas can hold, we help you book rooms nearby and plan the transfers.
