While there are many different Ibiza wedding venues available to those brides and grooms-to-be who have chosen the white isle as their wedding destination, there are very few high-end locations with the capacity to host a very large number of guests and offer all services and catering in house.

Enter the sophisticated and stylish Ibiza Gran Hotel… With all the hallmarks of a classic and contemporary wedding venue – think professional gastronomic catering, stylish seating, a dedicated indoor and outdoor event space and an in-house planning team – the hotel also boasts stunning views across the Mediterranean to Dalt Vila, is conveniently located near to all the island action and five-star luxury service. As a matter of fact, it’s more than five-star, as Ibiza Gran Hotel is the only resort in Ibiza to have been categorised by governing officials as ‘Grand Luxe’. It seems when you choose Ibiza Gran Hotel as your Ibiza wedding venue, all you need to bring is love!

The beauty of staging your wedding in such a spacious and professional setting is that you needn’t worry about dashing around the island on your wedding day for hair and make-up or organising transport in between ceremonies and receptions. Ibiza Gran Hotel also offers special rates for your guests’ accommodation, in addition to a complimentary suite for the bride and groom. With an onsite spa for relaxing massages or face and body treatments in the lead up to the big day, plus fabulous facilities and dining options, easing into your wedding week here should be a breeze for one and all. All wedding packages at Ibiza Gran Hotel are extensive, including menus, seating plans and guest list, floral arrangements, decorative chair covers, free parking (for 10 vehicles), the wedding cake and so much more (conditions apply). Every last detail is thought out for you, so all you need to do is select the little extras that matter most for your event. Photographers, childcare, limos and luxury cars, DJs and more can be arranged – the in-house event planning team are dedicated to making your wedding dreams come true.

After seeing the bride and groom say ‘I do’ and kiss, it could be fair to say many guests are then looking forward to tucking into the food at an Ibiza wedding, and the Ibiza Gran Kitchen have a variety of wedding menu feasts to choose from. A tasting session for up to six people is included in the package price – and the hardest part is choosing which option to take as each and every menu is mouth-wateringly delicious, with kids’ menus, plus vegetarian and gluten-free dishes also available. The options are endless, and the quality unrivalled. With six formal menus, all with an international twist, to choose from – all including snacks served at the table, hot and cold bites, main meals, wedding cake (seven different flavours to choose from), white and red wine, sparkling wine or champagne plus coffee and tea – you’re spoilt for choice. Specialist food stations can also be added on to your package, such as typically Spanish, with hand-cut Bellota cured ham, paella and lobster rice or sushi and fresh oysters, or alternatively, thematic corners can be created to add a fun ambience to the event – choose from Japeruvian, oriental, Mexican or sweets.

Toasting the newlyweds is a time-honoured tradition and Ibiza Gran Hotel’s extensive drink menus ensure there will be plenty of cheers throughout the day and night alike. With open bar options – standard, premium and extra premium – available at an hourly rate, your guests will be sipping on beer, wine, sparkling, aperitifs, brandy and spirits, not to mention water and soft drinks to keep them hydrated in between! Lovers of Gin will be pleased to see that a ‘Gin Club’ can be added to your package, with a selection of the world’s finest gins, plus high-end tonic mixers being served up by a professional barman. There’s also the option to add a cocktail bar, with a huge list of beautifully presented drinks to choose from or the opportunity to create a bespoke selection based on your tastes. Expect glasses tinkling all night long!

The wedding team at Ibiza Gran Hotel ensure you don’t need to lift a finger on your wedding day – apart from the aforementioned cheers, of course! Sophistication, good taste, elegance and romance are their specialties – combined with the stunning location, top quality gastronomy and the flexibility to design the wedding of your dreams, Ibiza Gran Hotel is without a doubt one of the island’s most revered wedding venues. The high quality service continues from Ibiza Gran Hotel, long after you’ve bade farewell to your final guest. On their first morning as Mr & Mrs, the newlyweds receive a special breakfast delivered to their suite plus two access passes to the famous Open Aqua water circuit at Open Spa to help them ease into married life! One full year later, they’ll also be gifted accommodation in the suite (with spa access again) to celebrate their first anniversary and relive the happy memories back where it all began. It’s the Ibiza wedding venue that keeps on giving…
