From Çiğli to Aliağa: half an hour on the motorway

From Çiğli to Aliağa: half an hour on the motorway

Most people in Çiğli who are looking for a wedding venue look towards the city. Our suggestion is to try the other direction as well. It's roughly 45 km from Çiğli to Aliağa, about half an hour on the motorway. On most evenings, getting from Çiğli to Konak across the city takes longer than that.

Our garden is in the centre of Aliağa, in Kültür Mahallesi. You come off the motorway and you're here in a few minutes. There's a car park for those coming by car.

It's easy for guests without a car too. Çiğli is on the İZBAN commuter train line that runs to Aliağa. You get on the train and get off at the last stop. From the station it's about 2 km to the garden, a few minutes by taxi. For evening weddings, don't forget to check the time of the last train home.

The garden

Weddings take place in the open air, under the trees. There's an arched bridal aisle, a dance floor under string lights, a pavilion with columns and a separate bridal suite for the bride and groom. The garden holds up to 1,200 people.

We run two sessions a day, midday and evening, and there's only one event in the garden in each session. We don't have an indoor hall, and our season runs from May to October. As well as weddings, we host engagement parties, henna nights, civil ceremonies, church-style ceremonies, graduation parties, hen and stag parties, birthday parties and circumcision celebrations (sünnet).

Leave Çiğli in the late afternoon and you'll be in the garden half an hour later. Before you come, call +90 554 130 01 99 or message us on WhatsApp. If you're coming from other parts of Izmir, have a look at our Izmir post.
