Getting Married on Ibiza
Are you planning to get married in Ibiza? Bas Uijlings lives on the island and captures weddings through photography and film in Ibiza and other extraordinary destinations worldwide. With 24 years of professional experience and over 600 weddings photographed, Bas combines local knowledge of Ibiza with a relaxed, international approach.
Why Getting Married in Ibiza Is So Special
Ibiza is much more than just an island for sun and parties. It is precisely the combination of nature, Mediterranean atmosphere, unique architecture, and a relaxed lifestyle that makes it an extraordinary destination for a wedding.
A wedding in Ibiza is often about more than just one day. Family and friends travel to the island together, stay for several days, and experience much more than just the ceremony. A welcome dinner, a relaxed day by the sea, the wedding day itself, and a collective farewell can together form one great story.
This makes getting married in Ibiza not just a wedding, but a complete experience that you share with the most important people in your lives.

Those getting married in Ibiza can choose from very different types of wedding venues. Luxury hotels, historic fincas, private villas, beach clubs, and locations with sea views ensure that almost every wedding has its own unique atmosphere.
Below you will find a selection of well-known locations that suit different styles of an Ibiza wedding.
Ca Na Xamena
A spectacular location high above the sea in the north of Ibiza. The combination of cliffs, views, and Mediterranean architecture makes this an extraordinary setting for a luxury wedding.

Private villas and fincas
For many couples, a private villa or finca is the ideal place to be together for several days. You have space for a welcome dinner, the wedding day, and a relaxed closing without having to constantly change locations.
A multi-day wedding in Ibiza
Many couples choose to turn their Ibiza wedding into a multi-day experience. This gives you the time to truly be together with family and friends.
The first evening can start with a welcome dinner. The following day is the wedding day itself. This might be followed by a beach day, brunch, or a collective farewell.
It is often between the planned moments that the memories you will value most later are created.
If you want to give all your time and attention to your guests during the wedding day, we can of course also capture the most beautiful images during a separate photo shoot the day after your wedding; we can even expand this with an underwater photo shoot in Ibiza.
Shanna and Rik are getting married on Ibiza
Shanna and Rik’s wedding in 2022 took place at a luxury villa in the heart of Ibiza. We were there right from the start of the preparations to capture their days on the island. After our first meeting, a Dutch-speaking wedding officiant presided over the ceremony for this Belgian couple.
Afterward, there was a big celebration, with games, delicious food, and dancing. To cool off, everyone took full advantage of the pool, which the children especially enjoyed. A beautiful wedding cake was served for dessert.
At 11:00 p.m., the party at the villa had to end due to local noise regulations. But that certainly didn’t mean the evening was over. Along with some of their guests, Shanna and Rik headed to Hï Ibiza, where Fischer was set to DJ. Everything had been arranged well in advance by their wedding planner, and the evening went exactly as planned.
Note: The photos from Hï Ibiza were taken with an iPhone; professional photography is prohibited there. The quality doesn’t meet our standards, but we’ve included them for the sake of the story.
The day after the wedding, we met up with Shanna and Rik again for a Beyond Wedding Shoot. We took plenty of time to capture some special shots in Ibiza and even took underwater photos with the newlyweds.
Review from Shanna and Rik: “We had such an amazing time—the photos are beautiful! Thanks for everything!”
