Planning a wedding in Ibiza

Paissa de Bernat. Have you played there before?

exclusivity fee is different to venue hire fee - cas mila will let you hold a wedding there without having exclusivity.

only one or two venues have a compulsory venue hire fee and most venues work on a minimum spend basis - 60 people seems to be about the norm to get the venue to yourself without paying an exclusivity fee.....

this was for 2011, not sure if it's changed much for 2012 and 2013 but it would be great if you could share what you found too.....

yes, nice villa! here are some pictures from my favourite gig there:-

should give you an idea of what to expect although you'd be lucky to get another sunset like that!!

Yes, we were told that after midnight, the speakers just get turned around, so they're facing inside. Then we'll just move the dancing inside. But I'm assured it won't be a problem at all. I'd put your queries to your venue and your DJ and see what they say. This was really important to us which was one of the main reasons we chose Pura Vida, as we found them more accommodating in this way. I didn't want to risk the party being over at midnight! x

they also get turned down a fair bit at that time and the doors are closed too, so try and get the party well underway by around 22:30 to make the most of your time outside.....

also, it can be pretty hard to move the crowd inside at midnight, so make sure the bride and groom are straight inside and on the dancefloor ;-)

Hi! I've just joined too, Our wedding is June, in Jesus Church then Amante too., can't wait! We are basing ourselves at Talamamca for the week,

Have been stressing a little on the times too and have confirmed church for 2pm and straight to Amante after that. Are you doing anything after Amante, like an after party?

Also has anyone made plans for the next day? We are having a get together in Ocean Drive in Talamanca and hoping to go t a club afterwards - has anyone got any tips on getting a group onto guest list for Pacha for example, so you can have an area reserved :-)

We've been to ibiza for the last few years in Oct so i'm not too worried about the sunsetting but i was worried we'd not have long enough to party afterwards but my minds been put at rest - thanks avaryone.

Cas Mila does give the option of exclisivity but we decided not to bother - the layout means that the wedding will be quite seperate anyway.

We have decided to do something the day before the wedding with all of our guests rather than the day after. Were going to have a picnic at sunset near es vedra -it will be almost a year to the day that we got engaged at the same place.

Congratulation!

Sorry ,i havenot go to Ibiza☹️

that's quite a popular option for weddings, but it's a minimum of €150 per person for the VIP - that's the only way to get an area reserved. to be honest, i think that money is much better spent on chartering a boat.

I've DJed at a fair few two day weddings where they partied the day before, or the day after, on a sailboat or catamaran and they've all been amazing!!!

Some people even have the whole wedding on a boat, ceremony and all, which I think is brilliant.

Hey Ibizalovin

What have you decided to do about the earlier service/entertaining guests?

Hi there everyone,

Just signed up - been meaning to do it for months but kept getting sidetracked - you know how it is while wedding planning!

I'm another Ibiza bride - Getting married in San Carlos church on the 10th of June, and it can't come quick enough! Felt it was only right as it is my second home and has been for my family for the past 50 years.

Having a reception/meal at our family friends apartment complex, something a wee bit different, and I honestly cannot wait to get over there again! Oh and of course get married, ha!

Hi, we're looking at other church options and it looks like we might be going with San Jose. It is so much further to travel but its so beautiful and the timings work better.

We have to take ££ into account when thinking about timing v. travel v. feeding people entertaining all that sort of thing... bleugh if only budget was not an issue ?

Welcome new Ibiza brides!

While I'm here does anyone know how I can get extra luggage (read wedding cr*p) across to the island. Was going to take it as spare baggage but suddenly have more than I thought I would. Have had a email from Excess Baggage and they've qouted about £120 door to door for approx 30 kgs, I dont have that much but they have a 25kg min. I think £120 sounds reasonable but wondered whether you knew any others?

I've just booked an extra suitcase onto the plane, so I'll have my hand luggage with my dress in, and 2 hold suitcases. Then my OH will have his hold case and hos hand luggage. I think it cost me an extra 30 quid.

Pix how many kgs did you get extra? and this is a totally stupid question but does it have to be a bag or can it be a box... I know I feel stupid even asking ?

So my church situation is changing day by day at the moment.... argh!!!So does anyone have the contact details for the recommended wedding Spanish guitar musicians to hand? Looks like I might be going back to an earlier service and want to entertain my guests for at least a couple hours. I have been sent a few recommendations but don’t have any at work with me today and I want to get an email out to them ASAP. Has anyone had a quote?

Thanks

Flamenco guitarist and/ or dancer: Paco Romero +**** 092/

This is the recommended person amante has on the wedding list.

Ibiza Wedding Shop also do bookings for guitarists. They say from 275 euros.

Only an extra 10kg, but that takes my total up to 30kg. I am only going for a week so this should be plenty. My stuff is bulky, rather than heavy if you know what I mean.

Weirdly I was just pondering booking a flamenco dancer if possible. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it too.

Hi Everyone,

This is my first post on the forum :-) I have been reading this thread for months though! But we are finally booking our wedding at Cas Mila with Candi from Ibiza Wedding shop this Saturday, for 22nd June 2013 - feels like ages away but were very excited!!! Just need to decide now which menu to go with.....

You can book flamenco dancers through Ibiza Wedding shop too!

RE: luggage

Is anyone doing a seperate honeymoon after the wedding? I was thinking we might go over to Formentera after the guests leave to spends some alone time. The thought of dragging all the luggage with us, however, is making me think twice.

Ibiza Wedding Shop quoted me 295 euros for the guitarist, for an hour...

Hi there, do you have yet a florist? We would like to offer you our services. I would like to invite you to have a look to our facebook side "flowers ibiza". There you can have a look to some decorations we made in the church of Santa Eulalia. If you would like to have a flowerquote you contact us as well at our webside www.flowersibiza.com. best regards from Ibiza. Kristinxx

If you google courier to Ibiza, a 10kg box is roughly between £60 and £80 through Parcelforce. The mail in Ibiza is not what I would call the most efficient of services so it might be best to have it couriered a fair bit in advance to avoid any mishaps x

Sorry, It wasn't my itention to "spam" like you say. But to help.

If you still need a car I can send you a list of prices, we know someone who rents Oldtimers. As well "ducks united" have beautiful cars. And it is a very funny way to move from the church to the restaurant. And as well if this could be an option, We know someone who have the tipical horse carriage.
