Wedding dining menus are meticulously prepared by world-class chefs to ensure you spend more quality time with your guests and organize a more comfortable wedding experience. For your catered organizations, you may choose from the exquisite menus listed below.
Royal Menu
Complex Istanbul, our sports-oriented culture and activity center, is also at your service for joyful gatherings such as weddings. We are delighted to host you and your guests in our hotel’s elegant halls (specifically our “Mabeyn” hall).
Among our all-inclusive wedding packages and proposals, the wedding meal is undoubtedly one of the most crucial elements. The Complex Istanbul kitchen has prepared two exclusive wedding dining menus under the “Royal” collection. (Both menus generally consist of a starter plate, a warm appetizer, a main course, and a wedding cake. The preparation and service of the wedding cake are included in our package programs.)
Royal Menu 1:
- Olive Oil Starter Plate: Fresh green beans in olive oil, stuffed bell peppers, stuffed vine leaves, white cheese, haydari, tomatoes, cucumbers, and seasonal greens.
- Warm Appetizer: Mushroom crepe bundle served with tomato sauce.
- Main Course: “Beef Entrecôte” served with soufflé potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and demi-glace sauce.
- Dessert: Wedding cake.
Royal Menu 2:
- Turkish Appetizer (Meze) Plate: Circassian chicken, hummus, eggplant salad, haydari, lentil patties, spicy mashed salad (acılı ezme), white cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, and stuffed vine leaves.
- Warm Appetizer: Cheese-filled flaky pastry (talaş böreği) served with spiced yogurt sauce.
- Main Course: “Lamb Tandoori” served with seasoned rice (iç pilav), seasonal vegetables, and jus sauce.

Our culinary enthusiasts may curious about the recipes for the demi-glace and jus sauces. As any gourmet knows, the secret to red meat lies in the sauce; however, we respect our chefs’ professional secrets and keep these recipes confidential. We offer menu tasting sessions before the event so you can experience these flavors firsthand.
