Ibiza Wedding Venue Guide. My 5 Favourites

Ibiza is the best place for an unforgettable day. It’s a privilege to work here as a wedding photographer doing what I love. I have lots of couples ask me which are my favourite Ibiza wedding venues. There are just so many! And so many are amazing. So these are my personal favourites… not only for their combination of great service and lovely food but they also guarantee fantastic wedding photography!

Ibiza Wedding Venue Guide. My Favourites:

• Elixir Ibiza
• Can Gall
• Cas Mila
• Atzaro & Atzaro Beach
• Hacienda Na Xamena

The Venues:

Elixir Ibiza, Cala Codolar

Where: Close to the sunset beaches of Cala Conta on Ibiza’s west coast. Elixir is tucked away along a winding track and enjoys its own beach and cove.
Why: One of Ibiza’s only dedicated & exclusive wedding venues, Elixir offers impecable, friendly customer service and has stunning views of the Med and of Es Vedra. This venue is run so smoothly you’ll feel like you’ll never want the day to end! Take a look at their 5* Google Reviews to get more of an insight into why this Ibiza Wedding Venue is so popular.

Can Gall.

Where: a 30-minute drive from Ibiza Airport, making it a convenient choice for you and your guests. Its central location means you’re always within easy reach of Ibiza’s stunning beaches and lively towns—yet the venue itself feels like a peaceful retreat, far from the island’s hustle and bustle.
Why: Here we have authentic charm, a private setting, and a friendly dedicated in-house team all poised to make your wedding perfect. It’s a venue that offers both romance and relaxation, making your whole island experience truly unforgettable.

Cas Mila Ibiza

Where: Perched high above Cala Tarida Beach on Ibiza’s West Coast. Cas Mila is approx 20 mins drive from the hotels of San Antonio Bay and around 40-45 minutes from Playa den Bossa.
Why: Cas Mila has sweeping sea views with gorgeous sunsets and an amazing staircase for the best bridal arrival on the island! This venue isn’t exclusive but has worked hard to provide private areas for all parts of the wedding day, the new rooftop terrace is perfect for the wedding meal and is a great addition to this venue.

Atzaro & Atzaro Beach

Where: Atzaro Agroturismo Hotel is located in the Ibiza Countryside close to San Carlos. Atzaro Beach can be found on Cala Nova Beach in Es Cana.
Why: Atzaro and Atzaro Beach are both beautiful Ibiza Wedding Venues and all the events are run by a very professional team of planners. Atzaro is a hidden gem perfect for lovers of the Ibiza heartland. Ceremonies are held in the pretty garden area or by the stunning pool which is set in its own orange grove. The rest of the day is spent in the grounds of the hotel which are simply beautiful.

Atzaro Beach is set right on Cala Nova Beach and combines rustic charm with a modern feeling. This venue is a touch more laid back than Atzaro but the standard of service is still 5*

Hacienda Na Xamena. San Miguel.

Where: Near San Miguel, set on tumbling cliffs impossibly high above the sea.
Why: Weddings at the Hacienda are simply amazing. Ceremonies take place in their own amphitheatre with uninterrupted sea views. Your guests will probably be speechless for a good part of the day after they first see this. It really is incredible. Weddings here are exclusive and luxurious with each part of the day assigned to a special private part of the hotel. Stunning views come as standard throughout!

Ibiza Wedding Venue Questions. The Things You Need to Know…

Firstly congratulations! If you’re reading this, then you’ve got engaged and you’re thinking of getting married in Ibiza. With that choice I already know you have impeccable taste!  One of the first things, if not the very first thing to book is your venue. This choice should reflect you and your personalities and also be amazing for your guests. So not much to ask then! Ibiza is bursting with beautiful wedding venues. Beaches, Clifftops, Gardens, Villas, there’s something for every couple. But how do you choose which one is best for you? And especially when you’re so far away? These are my top 10 things to bear in mind when making your choices, whether your’re here visiting in person or deciding online. No matter what type of wedding you’re dreaming of these are the things you must know…

The Ibiza Wedding Venue Questions to consider…

Location 

Not only does your Ibiza Wedding Venue need to wow you, but you also need to find it! From personal experience there are a fair amount of places which although amazing require lots of map work and sturdy vehicles to get to them. If you are visiting in person (which I recommend) then you should time how long it takes to arrive at each potential venue. Was it difficult to find? Remember your guests will not arrive prepared for a cross-country hike! 

Flexibility

Not surprising to see this one move up the list! It’s an essential that’s super important at the moment and going forward. Should you be unable, or indeed uncomfortable about travelling once your date comes around what policy does your venue have in place? It’s important to ask and have clear exactly how many times you can postpone, what the terms are regarding this, and how soon before the day you can do this. Will there be a fee or will you lose a deposit already paid. Ibiza’s most popular and professional venues will have no problem helping you with these queries.

Hygiene & Safety

We’re all very aware of new levels of cleanliness and hygiene and your Ibiza Wedding Venue is no exception. Important questions to ask are what protocols will be in place for guests on arrival, what can they expect and how will things play out during the day. A quick scan around should tell everything you need to know but there’s no harm asking and having things clear.

Transport Options

No matter how tempted you are to ‘just let everyone get taxis’, it’s never a good idea. Ibiza has a notoriously unreliable taxi system which can’t be pre-booked. This often results in late arrivals delaying the ceremony and a large number of people stranded at the end of the night. Not good. Therefore your Ibiza wedding venue needs to be accesible by coach or at least mini bus. All professional venues & planners will have excellent transport contacts and be able to easily arrange for you and your group to arrive and leave with zero hassle.

Accessibility

It’s likely you’ll have a mixture of families and older guests at your Ibiza Wedding. Will they be able to move easily around the venue? Is it safe? Whilst a cliff-side stunner might be your dream, would your guests with children feel the same?
Make sure you check where each part of the day will take place and how guests will move between each area. 

Ceremony Area

Where is this? Is there shade and will it be peaceful when your ceremony takes place? Some Ibiza Wedding Venues are next to big hotels which can get very lively of an evening. Your viewing might take place in the morning so you may miss how noisy things can get for your ceremony and reception. Be sure to ask about this.

You’ve spent lots of time investigating photographers on Instagram/Facebook/websites and you already know the style you like. But then once you’ve decided, what’s next? What expectations should you have for your Ibiza wedding photographer, and what can they expect from you?
Choosing your wedding photographer is very personal. It’s an essential element of the day and the images are going to live with you for a lifetime. Therefore, it’s important both yours and your photographer’s expectations are clear and compatible from the outset. It will make things so much easier later on!

Preparation…

Most wedding photography packages will include getting ready. Some couples would like both bride and groom coverage, whilst others would just like to focus on the bridal party. This is the first thing to clarify. If you’re both in the same place getting ready, a villa for example then your photographer will have no problem capturing both bride and groom. However, if you would prefer a more thorough coverage, you’re in 2 hotels or even in the same hotel but in different rooms this may not be possible. It’s often recommended in these situations to have a second shooter on board.

It’s up to you how much preparation to include, but as a guide it’s usually 1-2 hours before the bride leaves for the venue. If the dress is on and you’ve a moment for the first time reveal to family 15-20 minutes before you set off that’s amazing! Then your photographer can happily skip off to the venue, set up and have a few moments with the groom before your make your arrival.

Arrival at the Venue…

Every photographer knows that those moments between arrival and the start of a wedding can be very tense. So your arrival and photos with bridesmaids & family are all taken calmly and quickly. It’s ideal to discuss with your photographer beforehand if you would like any additional photos at this point. It’s easy to forget with so much happening all at once.

The Ceremony…

Things happen quickly during a wedding ceremony. It can be easy for small but important details to be missed. Be sure to talk your wedding photographer through the ceremony you’ve created with your celebrant and outline and special moments which aren’t to be missed.

The Couple shots…

A moment of dread for most! But with good communication beforehand, this should be an enjoyable moment for you both. It’s where your most amazing photos get created, the ones you’ll want to share forever. We understand that most people aren’t comfortable in front of a camera. If you are nervous about this moment, be sure to tell your photographer this. They will put you at ease and explain the process.

It’s also recommended finding out from your venue how much time you will have for the couple shots and what time they will happen. Sunset in Ibiza no matter which side of the island you are on is a super important time for the best photos. Find out in advance what time the sun sets on your date and ask for your timings to make allowances for this moment. We may also need to take a guest or 2 to help us, so it’s good to have asked them in advance if that will be ok. As a final note, don’t forget the flip flops! Even if the bride puts on her shoes at the beach, it’s essential that she can arrive there safely and we also avoid very unhappy feet!

The Meal…

No one likes a photo of themselves eating so usually this is your photographer’s break time and will put the camera down for a while until the speeches begin.

Cutting the cake and the First dance…

Once the speeches are over your wedding planner will usually get the party started by asking you to cut the cake if you have one and then begin your first dance. As these events usually unfold naturally, your photographer will be on hand for each moment. However, if there are any surprises or out of the ordinary events planned, then let your photographer know. They will want to be in the right place at the right time getting the best photos possible. 

Your Wedding Essentials…

• The full name and a map if needed of where you’re staying.
• Mobile contact details for the photographer and make sure they have yours.
• List of possible helpers on the day for group photos and the couple shoot.
• Flip Flops!
• List of any special moments or events which will take place. When they are scheduled to happen and where.
• Sunset timings.
• What happens if things run over? Does your photographer charge for extra hours?
• Have Fun! It’s the best day of your lives!

I think the most difficult thing couples face when considering their wedding photography is how can this person we barely know capture us, like the real us? That’s why I love to chat to you first, find out your interests, why you love Ibiza too, what sort of wedding are you having? All those things that make you you and your day super special. I want everyone I work with to feel as relaxed as possible; maybe not 100% attainable whilst on a public beach in a wedding dress but we can get near it!

One of the best things about an Ibiza Wedding are all those amazing photos you can show off of you and your most loved looking blissed out on a beautiful beach. All that sunshine and stunning scenery should be captured in a fun yet dedicated way which is why our Ibiza beaches are my most favourite places

I’ve been an Ibiza Wedding Photographer for almost 10 years now which makes me one very lucky girl. I love what I do, not only because I enjoy meeting new people and taking pictures of them but because I’ve got to see so many new corners of this wonderful island. I like nothing more than showing off a secret cove or cliff top and then getting to do a shoot there that will be treasured.

I know I’ve had a good shoot when a couple or family tells me they’ve had fun and enjoyed the experience, that means the world to me So I hope you’ve enjoyed my favourite Ibiza Beach Wedding Photography examples and have got some inspiration for your own wedding.

Have you seen the Ibiza Photography Instagram page? I’d always thought it was such a great way of displaying my work and also connecting with other people who love photography. And did you know it now outperforms Facebook in engagements? Not actual engagements… That would be lovely but very weird!

I’m lucky enough to have reached a nice number of organic followers, over 2200 which is awesome! Imagine putting all of those people in your living room I don’t think I want to stop there though. I get such good feedback from couples, those who are planning an Ibiza Wedding and those who have already got married here. It’s so lovely to have that direct connection with everyone, and also see a little more of your lives.
