Car Rental for Weddings in Istanbul

For your wedding day, with our car rental service in Istanbul, we offer 87 different models at daily rates starting from 1,600 TL (VAT included). We deliver your car to any address you wish, to Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gökçen; thus, you can arrange the right vehicle for your entire team, from the bridal car to guest transfers, all in one place.

Which Car Class Should You Choose for a Wedding?

The choice of vehicle for your wedding depends on who will drive the car and what role it will serve: bridal car, convoy, or guest transportation? On this page at Rent-Trip, 87 cars are listed; prices start from 1,600 TL including VAT, and as the class rises, comfort, equipment, and engine power increase.

Economy class: budget-friendly options

• Fiat Egea Hatchback: 5 seats, Gasoline, Manual, 1.4 L, 95 hp — 1,600 TL/day.
• Renault Clio: 5 seats, Gasoline, Automatic, 1.0 L, 90 hp — 1,650 TL/day.
• Hyundai i10: 4 seats, Gasoline, Automatic, 1.0 L, 67 hp — 1,600 TL/day.
• Toyota Yaris: 5 seats, Hybrid, Automatic, 1.5 L, 116 hp — 1,900 TL/day.
• Volkswagen Polo: 5 seats, Gasoline, Automatic, 1.0 L, 95 hp — 1,850 TL/day.

The economy class is ideal for couples who allocate most of the wedding budget to the venue and catering; models with low city fuel consumption stand out. Automatic vehicles in this class offer a practical compromise for drivers who do not want to drive manual in megacity traffic.

Comfort and Sedan: prestigious models for wedding convoys

The Comfort class is preferred as a wedding car or as the lead vehicle of a convoy; models include the Toyota Corolla Hybrid (2,200 TL/day), Honda Civic Hybrid (2,600 TL/day), Volkswagen Golf (2,500 TL/day), and Škoda Octavia (2,500 TL/day). Sedan-bodied options, such as the Volkswagen Passat Diesel (3,200 TL/day), Toyota Camry Hybrid (3,600 TL/day), and Škoda Superb Diesel (3,300 TL/day), offer a larger interior and luggage space; these vehicles are especially advantageous for long-distance transfers and honeymoon plans. In the Comfort class, age and driving experience requirements increase, and exact conditions are specified in the contract.

SUVs and large vehicles: practical solutions for guests

The Dacia Duster Diesel Manual (2,200 TL/day) and Opel Mokka Petrol Automatic (2,100 TL/day) in the SUV class, with their high driving position and spacious trunk, are useful for airport transfers for guests coming from out of town. If a short getaway to Sapanca or Bursa is planned after the wedding, these models are also comfortable on rough terrain; however, off-road driving is prohibited by the rental agreement. If vehicles for 7-9 people are needed in the convoy, we recommend separately considering the options on the minivan page.

Wedding Car Prices — Daily, Weekly and Monthly Rates

In wedding organization, the vehicle budget is as decisive as the class choice. At Rent-Trip, daily rates start from 1,600 TL including VAT; for weekly and monthly rentals, the daily rate decreases. Below, you will find exact figures according to the duration of your wedding and the prices of popular models.

Daily rental prices: starting from 1,600 TRY including VAT

For a single-day rental for the wedding day, prices start from 1,600 TL including VAT for Economy class hatchback models. This segment includes the Fiat Egea Hatchback, Dacia Sandero, and Hyundai i10; 1.0–1.4 L petrol engines and 67–100 hp power range are sufficient for city use. If you want an automatic, the Renault Clio rents for 1,650 TL and the Hyundai i20 for 1,750 TL. Moving to the Comfort class, the Toyota Corolla Hybrid is 2,200 TL, Volkswagen Golf 2,500 TL, and Honda Civic Hybrid 2,600 TL. In the sedan segment, the Volkswagen Passat at 3,200 TL and Toyota Camry Hybrid at 3,600 TL become the flagship of the wedding convoy. The daily fee includes compulsory traffic insurance; the coverage of additional protection packages is specified in the contract.

Advantageous rates in weekly and monthly rentals

Weekly rental is calculated by multiplying the daily rate by six days: an economy car starts from 9,600 TL. For the monthly rate, the daily rate is multiplied by 21 days—from 33,600 TL onwards. This formula provides a significant advantage over daily rental for couples who will keep the car for more than a week for wedding preparations and the subsequent honeymoon. In long-term rentals, the vehicle's condition, tire wear, and fuel level are recorded in a report at the time of delivery. The deposit amount and mileage limit are specified in the contract; these items vary depending on the vehicle class.

Popular models and prices

If your wedding spans a week, the weekly rate saves the equivalent of one day's fee compared to daily rental. If you will use the car only on the ceremony day, the lowest-cost option is Economy class manual models; if comfort and prestige are your priority, opt for the Hybrid Sedan class. When comparing prices, remember that VAT is included in the price — no surprise costs will arise.

Automatic transmission and hybrid — urban comfort and fuel savings

To reduce wedding day stress, the choice of transmission and fuel type is as decisive as the vehicle class. While automatic transmission facilitates driving on ramps and busy streets; hybrid engines reduce fuel consumption during long convoy waits. The majority of the 87 vehicles in Rent-Trip's fleet have automatic transmission, and 4 hybrid models are available for rent.

Automatic Transmission: Comfort in Traffic

On the wedding day, the bridal car driver has to constantly stop and go in traffic; in this case, a manual transmission can be tiring, especially in hilly neighborhoods like Beşiktaş and Beyoğlu. Automatic transmission eliminates the hassle of clutch and gear shifting, allowing the driver to focus on both the road and the convoy. At Rent-Trip, popular models in the Economy class such as Renault Clio, Hyundai i20, Peugeot 208, Opel Corsa, Volkswagen Polo, and Citroën C3 are all automatic. In the Comfort class, options like Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, and Volkswagen Golf offer extra performance in city transitions with a power range of 130-184 hp. Daily rates for automatic cars start from 1,650 TL and include VAT; manual models are mostly diesel. If you are going out of town for wedding photos, we recommend choosing an automatic car — driver fatigue significantly decreases on long roads.

Hybrid Models: Toyota Yaris, Corolla, Camry — Fuel Advantage

Hybrid vehicles use the electric motor at low speeds to significantly reduce city fuel consumption; this provides an advantage during wedding day convoy waits that last for hours. In the Rent-Trip fleet, hybrid options are offered in three models: Toyota Yaris (1,900 TL/day), Toyota Corolla (2,200 TL/day), and Toyota Camry (3,600 TL/day). The Yaris, with its 1.5 L engine and 116 hp, offers maneuverability in the compact class; the Corolla, with its 1.8 L engine and 140 hp, combines comfort and luggage capacity in a sedan body. The Camry, with its 2.5 L engine and 218 hp, stands out as an upper-class wedding vehicle; it can be preferred as a bridal car. All three models have automatic transmissions and can be rented at prices including VAT. The economy of the hybrid engine is especially evident in long-distance honeymoon plans — a round trip from Istanbul to Sapanca is approximately 240 km, and over this distance you achieve significant savings compared to a petrol car.

Wedding Day Vehicle Delivery — to the Hotel, Venue or Airport

On the wedding day, time is everything; it is possible to simplify the car rental process by having the car come to you instead of going to a pickup point. Rent-Trip delivers to all districts on the European and Asian sides of the city and to both airports; thus, the car is brought to the hotel where preparations are made, the venue where the reception will take place, or the address where you are staying.

Delivery to Hotel or Venue: Wedding Day Plan

Having the vehicle delivered to the venue where wedding preparations are underway saves the team's time. Delivery is planned around busy hours such as hair appointments or pre-invitation photo shoots. You can pick up the vehicle from a hotel in Şişli, a venue in Beşiktaş, or a salon in Kadıköy. The Rent-Trip operations team contacts you before delivery to determine a suitable time window according to the wedding schedule. The vehicle is brought to the specified address, ready for key handover and contract signing. If the delivery point has a parking lot or a safe area where the vehicle can be parked, the process is even faster—just mention this during reservation.

Pickup from IST and SAW: car after your flight

Guests coming from out of town or abroad for the wedding can pick up the car at the airport after landing. Istanbul Airport (IST) is in Arnavutköy, and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) is in Pendik; since the two airports are on different sides of the city, the correct airport is chosen according to the wedding venue's location. Rent-Trip has separate pages for both IST and SAW, and delivery takes place at the terminal exit. Sharing the flight number in the reservation against flight delays ensures the car is kept ready. To leave without wasting time after landing, simply call the operations team as soon as you exit the baggage claim area — the car is directed to the meeting point.

Car Rental for Foreign Guests — Required Documents

Renting a car in the city for guests coming from abroad for your wedding takes only a few minutes when the right documents are ready. At Rent-Trip, the process for foreign visitors is completed with a passport, driver's license, and a credit card issued in the main driver's name. Since delivery is made at the car, no additional office visit is required.

Rental conditions for foreigners: passport and driver's license

• Passport: Regardless of the country where the rental is made, a valid passport and entry stamp to Turkey are mandatory; an e-visa printout without a stamp is also accepted.
• Driver's license: A driver's license from your own country is sufficient; if it is not issued in the Latin alphabet, an International Driving Permit (IDP) must be added.
• Credit card: A credit card in the main driver's name and enabled for international payments is required for the security block; transactions cannot be made with someone else's card.
• Age and experience: As the vehicle class increases, the minimum age and license experience requirements increase; the exact limits are set out in the rental agreement.

Credit card and age requirements: set out in the contract

Since Comfort or Sedan class cars are generally preferred for the wedding convoy, the age and experience requirement for these models is higher than for the Economy class. For example, a guest wishing to rent a Toyota Corolla or Volkswagen Passat is expected to have held a license for a longer period compared to a smaller model like the Renault Clio. At Rent-Trip, all these conditions are clearly listed in the contract before the vehicle is delivered; the deposit amount, mileage limit, and details of insurance coverage are also stated in the same contract. The block amount on the credit card varies according to the vehicle class, and the release time depends on the bank's processing time after the vehicle is returned undamaged. For a honeymoon plan after the ceremony, renting the car for a week is more advantageous than the daily rate; the weekly fee is equivalent to six days of the daily price and includes VAT. Guests from countries whose passports are issued in the Latin alphabet do not have to carry an IDP; however, to avoid problems in Turkish traffic police practices, it is safe to carry an IDP.

HGS and Intercity Travel — Honeymoon and Trip Plans

For couples planning a honeymoon or an out-of-town trip after the wedding, routes starting from Istanbul and HGS usage on bridge crossings are an important part of the car rental process. With Rent-Trip vehicles, it is possible to go to Sapanca, Bursa, or Cappadocia; however, to clarify your route and budget, it is necessary to know the toll fees and durations in advance.

What is HGS and how does it work on bridges?

HGS is the electronic toll system used for bridge and highway crossings in Turkey; thanks to the HGS device or tag in the vehicle, payment is made without stopping at the booth. The functioning of HGS in Rent-Trip vehicles is explained in detail on the site's HGS page. The amount to be paid varies according to the bridge you use and the time of crossing: Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge is 110 TL, the Eurasia Tunnel is 280 TL during the day and 140 TL at night, and the Osmangazi Bridge is 1,170 TL. An unpaid crossing, if not completed within a certain period, is reflected as a penalty of four times the fee. Therefore, when planning a route with bridges, have your HGS balance checked; otherwise, you may face an unexpected penalty upon returning from holiday.

Post-Wedding Getaway: Routes to Sapanca, Bursa, and Cappadocia

For a short honeymoon from here, Sapanca is about 1.5 hours away, and the Bursa and Uludağ region is about 2 hours via the Osmangazi Bridge. If you are planning a long trip, Cappadocia is reachable by car in about 8 hours; for this distance, choosing a comfortable sedan or SUV makes the journey more enjoyable. When heading out of town, consider the car's fuel type and transmission structure: on long roads, a diesel model may be more economical than a petrol one. Additionally, an automatic car reduces fatigue on long journeys after heavy city traffic. Weekly rentals offer advantageous rates compared to the daily rate; this eases the budget for multi-day plans like honeymoons.

Wedding Convoy — Advantages of Renting More Than One Vehicle

Renting multiple cars for the wedding convoy allows you to combine the bridal car and guest cars in a single reservation. At Rent-Trip, you can plan different classes from among 87 cars to be delivered to the hotel or venue on the same day.

Vehicle combinations for the convoy: bride's car + guest vehicles

• Bridal car: Comfort class sedan models—Toyota Camry at 3,600 TL/day or Honda Accord at 3,400 TL/day—create an elegant backdrop in wedding photos.
• For family: 5-seat SUVs — Dacia Duster 2,200 TRY/day, Opel Mokka 2,100 TRY/day — practical for carrying the bride and groom's relatives.
• Guest groups: Economy class hatchbacks — Fiat Egea Hatchback 1,600 TRY/day, Renault Clio 1,650 TRY/day — do not strain the budget for guests' city transportation.
• Large convoy: 7-seat models reduce the cost per vehicle by lowering the number of passengers; 8- and 9-seat options are also available.
• Chauffeured rental: Chauffeur service for the entire convoy eliminates the burden of parking and navigation in Istanbul traffic.

When planning a convoy, all vehicles must be coordinated to arrive at the same delivery point and at the same time; Rent-Trip delivers to the European and Asian sides of the city and to IST and SAW airports. Combining different classes in a single reservation takes less time than managing each vehicle's contract separately. Before finalizing the number of vehicles for the convoy, determine the route for the lead car and guest vehicles—this will clarify how many days each class is needed.

Conclusion — A Guide to Choosing the Right Car for Your Wedding

The right choice in wedding car rental begins with considering budget, vehicle class, and delivery plan together. When choosing among 87 cars at Rent-Trip, first clarify the role: bridal car, convoy, or an out-of-town getaway? Prices vary between 1,600–15,000 TL/day including VAT; for weekly rentals, the daily rate is multiplied by 6 days, and for monthly, by 21 days, thus lowering the daily cost for longer plans.

• Budget: Economy class starts from 1,600 TL; Comfort and Sedan models range between 1,950 and 3,600 TL. SUVs can be rented from 2,100 TL.
• Class: For the bridal car, a Sedan (Toyota Camry, Škoda Superb) is suitable; for guests, a 5-seat Hatchback; or for large families, 7-seat models.
• Transmission: In metropolis traffic, automatic transmission provides comfort; hybrid Toyota Yaris, Corolla, and Camry offer fuel advantages.
• Delivery: The vehicle is delivered to your hotel, wedding venue, or to IST and SAW airports; both the European and Asian sides are fully covered.

After clarifying your wedding day program, notifying the delivery address and time in advance facilitates the operations team's planning. If you are considering an out-of-town route, take into account HGS toll fees for bridges; Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge is 110 TL, Osmangazi Bridge is 1,170 TL. For foreign guests, an International Driving Permit is required for passports, entry stamps, and licenses not written in the Latin alphabet; the credit card must be in the main driver's name. Age and driving experience requirements vary by vehicle class and are specified in the rental agreement.

After setting your budget, number of guests, and delivery point, the only step left is choosing the model that suits your needs. Any couple who clarifies these three parameters will receive their car without issues on the wedding day.
