Choosing your location

Ibiza combines Ibiza Town, quiet coves and countryside fincas. Choose one base for the ceremony and the dinner. A cliffside or beach setting and a countryside finca are different days, and the roads between them add up. Put the transfer on the timeline before you promise portraits at two places. See Ibiza tourism: official visitor information for destination background.

What to ask your venue

Ask whether the beach or terrace is private to your event, how guests and suppliers reach it, and which room is the indoor backup. Confirm outside photo and film team access, any fees, and the music and noise rules.

Planning your wedding photographs

Start on the property. A cove or a walk through town is a separate block with its own time limit and a backup if the area is busy. Do not split wedding-day portraits across two venues unless the transfer is already on the timeline.

Planning your wedding film

Wind and the sound of the sea can compete with outdoor vows, so agree microphone placement before the ceremony. If the party runs late, decide which part of the evening the film team covers, and where speeches happen.

Timing, light and weather

Ask the venue which hours the ceremony space is in sun, and how the wind usually behaves there. Request photographs from your month, check the light for your own date, and keep the indoor room ready.

Bringing Bella Vita with you

Choosing a photo and film team before you travel gives you time to discuss style, priorities and the moments that matter. For combined coverage, ask for a proposal naming both team members, their roles, the hours on each day and the finished photographs and films you will receive. Flights and accommodation are part of the travel plan; they do not replace the creative fee. Ask for a written total covering travel, lodging, transfers, venue access costs, currency and taxes before committing.

Before you reserve

  • Is the ceremony space private?
  • How long is the transfer between the venue and any other location?
  • What is the indoor plan if the wind moves the ceremony?
  • Confirm whether you want a legal marriage abroad or a symbolic celebration, then obtain the current requirements directly from the relevant authority.
  • Ask your suppliers to confirm any permissions needed to work at the destination and venue before booking travel.
