Destination weddings on the Balearic Islands

The islands on the Balearics are dotted with archeological and cultural heritage sites that guarantee an authentically historic vibe for your big day. From medieval towns to old villages with century-old architecture, there will always be a reminder of where the islands and its inhabitants came from. One of the most sought-after heritage sites for destination weddings in the islands is the Dalt Vila in Ibiza where streets are made of cobblestones, and the whole city is walled as it was in the medieval times - a perfect place for historic elopements outdoors or inside a medieval building.

For laid back weddings with not more than 30 guests, villas and country homes in the islands will be an amazing choice. These homey structures stand out for their rural charm and the beautiful nature that surrounds them. Vineyards, olive groves, and almond blossoms as far as the eye can see are only some of the nature scenes that you can find near the villas and country homes on the Balearic Islands. Having a summer, spring, or autumn ceremony in a private villa amidst this rural setting could be your best option for your destination wedding.

Sunset is undeniably the most romantic time of the day for weddings by the beach. It’s when the skies display a magical color palette right before the night begins. It does not come as a surprise that many couples getting married in the islands begin their ceremony late afternoon.

It’s also a custom in Spain to party ‘til the morning, so it makes perfect sense to say your I dos late in the day. A wedding timeline like this involves less stress and a more laid back ambiance because no one needs to get up early and rush the preparation.

Without a doubt, most couples getting married by the beach or in a country house amidst a rural setting on the Balearic Islands prefer a boho-themed wedding above all else.

Wedding venues are decorated with rustic wooden arches, tall pampas grass, eucalyptus and fern prints, rattan table decor, as well as beige and terracotta tones, among others. In Ibiza, for example, the boho theme is most preferred because it is akin to the adlib fashion, which is all about dressing as you like but always in style. Many wedding venues here are boho even without additional decor because they are made with Adlib inspiration in mind.

Along with boho weddings, modern ceremonies are common on the Balearics. This kind of wedding simply means no traditional format and is based completely on the preferences of the couple. You can ditch the tradition of the bride walking down the aisle and instead hold each other's hands while walking down the aisle together.

You can have Peach Perfect Wedddings' celebrant who is on hand to help create and deliver your wedding ceremony uniquely for you. Instead of a veil, the bride can wear a modern headdress, and the announcement of the couple as newlyweds can be as wild as the couple wants it. Modern weddings are not about breaking rules, but about a celebration without any rules at all!

The Mediterranean cuisines are endless, and you must not miss any of them in your wedding reception. Spain is full of fiestas, big celebrations with enormous amounts of food. You can follow this pattern for your destination wedding on Balearic Islands.

Most couples who flew all the way to Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, or Formentera for their destination wedding brought only a small group for their big day. And they gave their guests an amazing Mediterranean treat in a luxury gastronomic experience they will never forget.
