Henna Night Boat: A Private Kına Celebration on the Bosphorus
The henna night (kına gecesi) is one of the most emotional and special moments before a wedding. If you'd like to celebrate it not in a crowded hall but in the middle of the Bosphorus, on a boat that's entirely yours, Sea Pleasure is here. With your close friends and family, an intimate and unforgettable henna celebration is possible — with music, candles and unmatched views.
Why a Henna Night on a Boat?
A henna night calls for privacy; a setting closed to outsiders, with only your loved ones, makes the evening far more meaningful. On the boat the deck is entirely yours — no one interrupts, and the night flows at your pace.
The sunset and night views of the Bosphorus give the celebration an atmosphere no hall can offer. It also makes a magical backdrop for photos and video.
Decoration, Music and Programme
You can bring your own decorations (candles, flowers, lights), your henna tray and your music; connect your own playlist to the boat's sound system. We plan the programme with you in advance and shape the flow of the night around you.
Unlimited tea and Turkish coffee are on us; wine and drinks are served on board, and you can bring your own refreshments too. Fishing aside, we can plan most of the celebration details you have in mind.
- Max 10 guests — an intimate celebration for a close group
- Your own decorations, henna tray and music
- Captain included — a safe, smooth evening
- Unlimited tea & Turkish coffee; BYO refreshments
Sunset or Night?
For a henna night, the sunset session offers a warm, romantic start; you begin the celebration in golden light and continue with candles and lights as darkness falls.
A full night session, with the bridges and city lights, creates an even more magical atmosphere. Let's talk on WhatsApp about which time suits you.
Who Attends and How Is It Planned?
A henna night is usually celebrated with the bride's close female relatives and friends; our boat is ideal for an intimate group of up to 10 guests. It's perfect for those seeking a smaller, private celebration.
You share the date, group size and programme on WhatsApp; we give a clear quote based on availability and plan your evening together.
Departure and Booking
You can choose whichever of our three pickup points (Yeniköy, Beykoz, Kuleli-Çengelköy) is most convenient for your group. We confirm the meeting spot and time in advance.
The price varies by duration, date, group size and programme. No fixed list and no online payment — message us on WhatsApp and we'll give a tailored quote. Since the wedding season is busy, we recommend planning early.
