Caroline & Owen. Cas Mila Ibiza Wedding Interview!
Where was the wedding: Cas Mila Ibiza
When was the wedding: 24 Oct 2021
The Ibiza speed wedding!
Can you plan and have an Ibiza wedding in 30 days? Yes of course you can!
As soon as I heard the story, I knew I was going to love them and their wedding! Caroline had originally booked a completely different venue and date and was looking for a photographer to come and take some relaxed photos of them all. Unfortunately, I couldn’t be there as I was supposed to be in the UK (sad face) But fate was on my side. Caroline changed her mind. And the venue and the date! Only potential obstacle, it was going to be in less than a month!
The end of October is gorgeous in Ibiza. The days can be warm and the sunsets are stunning. Only minor obstacle is the chance of rain. As luck would have it, Caroline and Owen missed a 2 day downpour and had their Cas Mila Ibiza wedding on one of the most beautiful days of the month. All’s well that ends well 🙂
I caught up with them to find out just what it was like to plan and have their Ibiza wedding in super quick time.
A little bit about you, what you do and why you wanted an Ibiza wedding.
This was a second marriage for both of us so we knew instantly that we didn’t want a big white wedding or all the stress and formalities that come with it. We’ve come to Ibiza for holidays for many years so it’s very special to us and it has become our family’s “happy place”. There isn’t really anywhere else we would choose to get married! We got engaged in Palma, Majorca so the Balearics feature heavily in the story of us!
How did you find Cas Mila and what made you choose it?
We found Cas Mila online! We actually didn’t see the venue for the first time until the day before the wedding as Covid prevented us from making any trips out before the big day. But we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We did watch many videos and read many reviews when making our choice so felt confident it was what we were looking for in terms of a beach front venue, amazing views and relaxed vibe! We knew we wanted our children to play a big part in our day so didn’t want anywhere too formal or stuffy!!
Describe the planning process and how it felt to organise a wedding so quickly?
Obviously due to Covid there was a lot of uncertainty. As well as having to move our original date, we only knew for definite that our wedding could go ahead 4 weeks before the big day! So until then no planning had been done at all. It really was all organised in under a month!! We couldn’t have done it without our amazing wedding planners Olga & Leanne who were so calm and super organised. Their meticulous attention to detail made us feel very confident they’d leave no stone unturned to get everything planned and booked in time. And they didn’t disappoint, we wouldn’t have changed a thing! They delivered on every single level.
Tell me about your experience getting married at Cas Mila?
Cas Mila was everything we could have hoped for and more. A beautiful beachfront setting overlooking a stunning beach. The views are just amazing and we were so lucky to have clear blue skies and sunshine followed by the most incredible sunset. The whole set up of the wedding area is done to make the most of the beautiful view. Everyone at Cas Mila went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. The food, the service, the organisation and professionalism were all just spot on. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to which is some praise indeed! I genuinely couldn’t recommend this venue enough, we are so pleased we chose it.
A few words about your photographer 🙂
Anne, you were a pleasure to have at our wedding. You listened to what we were looking for from our pictures and instantly made us feel relaxed. You were there to capture every moment but in a discreet way and never in our faces. We were so happy with our photos.
What are your favourite Ibiza places, beach, restaurants or bars?
Well obviously now Cala Tarida will obviously be a very special place to us and we’ll definitely be back. The beach there is just beautiful and perfect for young children. We usually stay in Cala Llonga on the other side of the island but I think after a week enjoying the most amazing sunsets we are now forever more sold on this side of the island!! Visiting Es Vedra to watch the sunset one evening was in particular a special moment. We would definitely recommend hiring a car to explore the island – as well as Ed Vedra we also visited Time & Space and the abandoned festival club both of which are well worth visiting! We love the Sunset Ashram for food and drinks in a beautiful spot.
