Canan Kalkanlı and Ulaş AkbaşTwo lovely people have just got married.  Canan Kalkanlı and Ulaş Akbaş were married this weekend, (9th, 10th and 11th October).

Canan works in Deniz Bank, Kalkan, where she deals with agricultural customers.

Ulaş is the chairman of the youth branch of the CHP in Kalkan, (the same party as the current Mayor of Kalkan).  He is also a businessman, involved in Fotos Pizza restaurant, and the excellent Turkish news website, Kalkan Haber.


The wedding was on Friday, with celebrations continuing on Saturday and Sunday.  On Saturday evening hundreds of family and friends came together to wish the couple well, at a party held in their honour.

The venue was the grounds of Yeşilköy First School.  There was live music, much dancing and a firework display.  

There was also the traditional ceremony where the couple are given gifts of gold, jewellery and cash.  Some was pinned or otherwise attached to Canan and Ulaş, with a significant amount of Turkish lira collected in a supermarket carrier bag.  Every little helps.

We think they make a great couple, and we wish them well in their married life together.
