Ibiza Small Wedding FAQs
Can you legally get married in Ibiza?
An Ibiza wedding can only be regarded as ‘‘legal’ if one of you is catholic or a resident of the island. Any ceremony conducted outside of a catholic church or away from the gaze of the local town hall will be symbolic. This is great news though! It means that you can have complete freedom over your Ibiza Small Wedding and particularly your ceremony.Â
How long is the ceremony?Â
You have a lot of say in how long your ceremony is and every celebrant that I recommend is a specialist in this area. Some couples just want something short and sweet, whilst others may welcome a nice recap of their time together along with some nice readings. The advantage of an Ibiza Small Wedding is that you get to choose and your celebrant will be happy to guide you. Typically a ceremony lasts between 15-30 minutes
How long does the whole thing take?
With ceremony and photography, you will need between an hour and 90 minutes. This ensures you make the most of the setting, enjoy a personal ceremony created just for you and some lovely photos afterwards. If your ceremony is close to a beach, cliff top or in pretty countryside then how long you spend there afterwards is completely up to you. Â
How does the photography work?
An hour is usually all you need to get enough photos of the occasion. This would include your arrival, the ceremony and then some relaxed shots afterwards. You can expect to receive 80-100 edited images within the week. These would be available to download via a pro gallery service. You will also receive a gallery of photos resized for social media and sharing.
Can we choose any place we like?Â
Yes! Within reason 🙂 The beauty of Ibiza Small Weddings is that you are free to have your intimate celebration almost anywhere you like on the island.Â
You can’t place any structures or have seating (due to local laws) and music/noise has to be kept to a minimum) but you’re free to enjoy almost any place in Ibiza for as long as you like. You might already have a spot that’s special to you both, or I can happily recommend the best areas.
How can we book?
Ibiza small weddings and elopements are usually booked between 3 months and 3 days beforehand. Short notice isn’t a problem if myself and the celebrant have availability 🙂 The ceremony day and time is then confirmed with a small deposit.
When is the best time to get married in Ibiza?
Small weddings take place in beautiful places, these are however public. You may have some places almost to yourself in May, June, Sep or Oct, but find that in July and August it’s very difficult to secure a spot where there aren’t lots of people around. The heat is also something to consider, especially if your group includes small children or older people.
What time does the ceremony take place?
Ceremonies can take place either early morning or around an hour before sunset. Early morning weddings can be a lovely experience as the light is nicer, the air fresher and the beaches emptier.

Ibiza Small Wedding & Elopements – Best Venues
You might prefer an intimate venue if you have a small group, Ibiza has some beautiful options if you would like something a little more organised. Here are my favourite 6.
- Mar de Santa – Santa Eulalia
This is a great spot right by the sea and within walking distance of Santa Eulalia. It’s just far enough away from the town to feel peaceful and intimate. The food is amazing and the shady beachfront keeps things comfortabe thoroughout the day. - Santa Marta – Santa Eulalia
A beachfront restaurant just outside of Santa Eulalia. The staff are friendly, the venue modern and well decorated and you couldn’t be closer to the sea! - Petunia Ibiza – Close to Cala Carbo
This boutique hotel is the ultimate in intimate hideaways, and comes with stunning views of Es Vedra as standard. - The Beach – San Antonio bay
For those staying in the Bay or over in town, this beachside venue is a really easy pick and perfect for family ceremonies by the sea. The celebrations continue with good food and drinks and a busy bay within walking distance for those that would like to enjoy the day for a bit longer. - Atzaro Beach – Cala Nova
Authentic bohemian beachfront setting with turquoise waters as your backdrop. The team are extremely professional and helpful and also offer in-house planning services. - Cala Bassa Beach Club
Stylish and chic beach club with amazing views across the sea. This venue offers a vibrant yet intimate experience.

We have just looked through the finished photos and they are truly amazing. The areas you chose for us to have them were perfect and we really couldn’t have asked for more.
I’m not one for ‘enjoying’ having my photos taken but Anne listened to every concern I had and made sure it all felt incredibly natural, as if she wasn’t there. Communication was great and the turnaround for the eagerly awaited photos was super fast.
