After the proposal we found ourselves in a very busy preparation schedule and we didn’t know where to start. But first of all we wanted to find the right person who capture our special day. We were so lucky because a good friend of us, who is a wedding planner, recommended you. Also we heard your name from another couple of friend who worked with you and we heard so many good things about you. Lastly when we went to the venue and the venue owners passed your name we knew we would be together on our wedding day:) After our first meeting you were so easy going and friendly, we trusted you fully. And when the big day arrived, you and the team worked so flawless and smooth, we are grateful! Every time we look at the photos and the wedding film, we say “We’re so glad that we got to work with you.” We thank you and your team dear Derya, for your amazing job you did for us and for your warmth and help. We love you!
