Mini Wedding in Istanbul for 60–100 Guests
Some celebrations become more beautiful with a crowd, while others feel more meaningful when shared with the people closest to you.
Fewer guests do not mean a lesser wedding. At Liya All, Mini Weddings offer couples planning a more intimate celebration with 60–100 guests the opportunity to experience Liya on a more personal scale.
A Mini Wedding is not simply a smaller version of a large wedding. A more limited guest count creates a different kind of celebration, allowing the couple to spend more time with their guests, experience the details in a more personal way and enjoy the waterfront atmosphere of Sedef Island more fully.
Today, one in every four weddings held at Liya is chosen in this format, showing how strongly couples value this more intimate atmosphere.
The All’N One approach continues seamlessly for Mini Weddings as well. Just like larger weddings, the day is planned as a full-day island experience, and all privileges included in the Elite and Plus packages remain available. Sea transportation, Liya’s in-house gastronomy, décor, photography and video, wedding planning and music are brought together and delivered within one integrated structure.
This allows couples planning a wedding for 60–100 guests to choose a more intimate celebration without compromising on Liya’s service standards or the comfort of the overall wedding experience.
For celebrations with a larger guest count, you can explore our All-Inclusive Wedding on Sedef Island page or discover Liya All’s other wedding and event services.

How Does a Mini Wedding Work at Liya All?
At Liya All, a Mini Wedding is planned for 60 to 100 guests while still offering the comfort, service quality and operational structure of a larger wedding from the preparation stage through to the end of the night. The planning process follows these steps:
Date and Weekday Island Atmosphere
Mini Weddings are available throughout the year from Monday to Thursday. Weekday celebrations create a calmer and more private atmosphere, allowing couples and their guests to enjoy the natural waterfront setting of Sedef Island in a more relaxed way.
Choosing the mini ELITE or mini PLUS Package
Couples choose either the mini ELITE or mini PLUS package according to the wedding they have in mind. The standards of the All’N One system are included at the same level, from table styling and fresh floral design to professional photography and video, sound and lighting, and the event team.
Liya Kitchen Menu and Sea Transportation
Food is not outsourced. It is prepared fresh in Liya’s own kitchen by Liya’s own chefs. Once seated, guests can choose their preferred main course from 11 different options. The private motor yacht reserved for the couple and the sea transportation arranged for guests are organised by the Liya team according to the wedding schedule.
Arrival on the Island, Pre-Hosting and a Full-Day Celebration
The Mini Wedding day begins with the couple arriving on the island by private boat and the Pre-Hosting experience on the preparation terrace. Family and friends are welcomed on the island, followed by the waterfront ceremony, sunset cocktails, dinner and music. The celebration continues throughout the day as a complete island wedding experience without being limited to a short event format.

- Liya – Bostancı40 minutes
Upon request, sea transportation can also be arranged from Beşiktaş, Kabataş and Yeşilköy on Istanbul’s European side.
There is no motor vehicle traffic on Sedef Island, and access to the island is entirely by sea. For Mini Weddings of 60–100 guests at Liya All, sea transportation is not treated as a separate detail outside the celebration. It is managed directly by Liya as part of the All’N One experience, using Liya’s own sea transportation network.
On the wedding day, the couple arrives on the island aboard a private Axopar motor yacht reserved especially for them. A private service is arranged from Dragos Marina for family members and close guests using a Liya vessel, while other guests travel directly to the Sedef Island pier on boats departing from Bostancı. Guests are welcomed at the pier by the Liya team and guided to the event area.
At the end of the celebration, three different return times are offered for guests: early, standard and late departures. A second Axopar sea taxi remains available throughout the day for additional transfers, and the entire sea transportation operation is managed by Liya from the first arrival on the island until the final return of the night.
