About Us

WHO WE ARE

Your Trusted Event Team in Antalya

Solara Event is an Antalya-based wedding and event planning company specialising in destination weddings, private celebrations and corporate events in Antalya, Turkey.

For international clients, planning an event in another country should feel exciting—not uncertain. We act as your trusted team on the ground, bringing together creative direction, venue and supplier coordination, budgeting, guest logistics, production and on-site management through one dependable point of contact.

From our first conversation to the moment your final guest departs, every decision is considered from both a creative and operational perspective. The result is an event that looks exceptional, runs seamlessly and allows you to remain fully present throughout the experience.

Our Story

Solara Event was founded in Antalya in 2023 by Selin Özyurt with a clear belief: meaningful events should never feel interchangeable.

Rather than repeating standard designs, Selin set out to create celebrations shaped by each client’s story, personal style and chosen setting. Her approach to concept design, décor and guest experience soon established the distinctive visual identity behind Solara.

In 2026, Berkan Özyurt joined the company, strengthening its project management, operations, business development and international client services.

Today, Solara brings together creative vision, structured planning and local expertise to deliver events that are both beautifully considered and confidently managed.

Two Areas of Expertise. One Cohesive Plan.

Selin Özyurt

Founder — Concept & Design

Selin creates the visual world of each event, from the overall concept and colour palette to floral design, table styling and decorative details.

Her work begins with the people at the heart of the celebration. Every design is developed to reflect the client’s personality, complement the character of the venue and create a memorable atmosphere for their guests.

Berkan Özyurt

Operations & Business Development

Berkan manages project planning, budget frameworks, venue and supplier coordination, event-day operations and international client communication.

Having spent ten years studying and working in the United Kingdom, he brings an international perspective, clear communication style and structured approach to every Solara project.

By considering design and operations together from the beginning, we ensure that what looks beautiful in a presentation is also realistic, buildable and carefully delivered on the day.

A Bespoke Approach, Built Around You

We do not believe in forcing every client into the same package or repeating the same setup from one event to the next.

We begin by understanding your priorities, guest count, preferred setting, budget and, most importantly, how you want the occasion to feel. From there, we develop a tailored concept supported by a clear and achievable operational plan.

Once the direction is approved, we bring the design, suppliers, production schedule, installation and event flow together within one coordinated process.

Our role is not simply to create a beautiful setting. It is to remove uncertainty, anticipate challenges and make sure you are free to enjoy the occasion without managing suppliers, answering operational questions or watching the clock.

Local Knowledge. International Standards.

Antalya offers extraordinary hotels, private villas, gardens and Mediterranean coastal venues—but delivering an event here successfully requires more than choosing a beautiful location.

Seasonal availability, weather conditions, hotel procedures, installation access, technical limitations, transport and local supplier coordination can all influence the final experience. Because we understand how Antalya’s venues operate, we can identify these details early and plan around them before they become problems.

Alongside our clients from Turkey, we work with couples, families and companies from the United Kingdom and other countries. We provide English-language communication, remote planning support, venue research, accommodation and transfer coordination, destination wedding logistics and on-site assistance for international guests.

Wherever you are planning from, you have a knowledgeable local team representing your interests and protecting the standards agreed throughout the process.
