A beach and show-venue wedding in Lara
Nirvana Cosmopolitan stands on the Lara coast east of Antalya city. The hotel was known as Kervansaray Lara until it reopened as Nirvana Cosmopolitan in 2021, and it was renovated in a programme running from 2023 to 2025.
A feature of the hotel for a wedding is the Cosmos Theatre, a show venue in the hotel with large video-mapping surfaces and an LED screen. It is listed for about 500 guests at a gala dinner and 1,200 at a party, and it names weddings and special celebrations among its events. Outdoors, the 175-metre sandy beach and the wide pier give you a setting by the sea.
The resort is open all year and offers ultra all-inclusive among its board options, with several à la carte restaurants, a spa, an aquapark and a sports centre, so your guests have plenty to enjoy in the days around the wedding.
- A show venue with video mapping for the reception.

Planning tips for a Nirvana Cosmopolitan wedding
A wedding at a large all-inclusive resort runs smoothly when a few details are settled early. With Ramarossi, one team looks after them for you:
- Guests who are not staying. All-inclusive resorts may charge a day or event pass for guests from outside the hotel. If some of your guests will stay elsewhere, tell us at the start so we can plan around it.
- 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.
- The theatre date. The Cosmos Theatre also hosts shows and other events, so we check its availability for your date early.
- Guest rooms. Plan your guests' rooms early, especially for a summer date. Our guide to resort room blocks in Antalya explains the options.

Can we get married on the beach at Nirvana Cosmopolitan?
The resort has a 175-metre sandy beach and a wide pier, so a ceremony by the sea is an option we look at for your date. We suggest the late afternoon, when it is cooler and the light is soft.
Can we have a legal (civil) wedding at Nirvana Cosmopolitan?
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. Read more about a civil wedding in Antalya. You can also marry legally at home and hold a symbolic ceremony in Antalya, if you prefer.
Where can we hold a welcome dinner or henna night?
The resort's à la carte restaurants, gardens and pool terraces 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.
