Picture this: You’re standing barefoot on a golden beach, the Mediterranean breeze is gently playing with your hair, and the love of your life is smiling at you under the fiery Ibiza sunset. Sounds like a dream, right? But before you get too lost in this beautiful vision, let’s talk numbers—how much does it actually cost to say ‘I do’ in Ibiza?
Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, Ibiza offers breathtaking venues, top-tier services, and, of course, a price tag that can range from “wow, that’s reasonable” to “should we sell a kidney?”. Let’s break it down!
The Big Picture: How Much Should You Budget?
On average, an Ibiza wedding costs between €20,000 and €50,000, but prices can vary depending on your venue, guest list, and overall level of luxury. Of course, if you’re after a lavish, no-expenses-spared experience, costs can climb beyond €100,000—especially if you’re booking a five-star resort or a private island.
However, if you’re smart about it (and read this article to the end 😉), you can still have a magical wedding without completely draining your savings.
Venues: From Boho Beachfronts to Luxury Villas
Ibiza has something for everyone, from rustic countryside fincas to exclusive beachfront clubs. Venue hire can range from €5,000 to €20,000, depending on exclusivity, location, and guest count. Here are some stunning options:
-
Petunia Ibiza – A boutique hotel with dreamy sea views. Ideal for smaller weddings, with prices starting at €400 per person. If you want full exclusivity, you’re looking at €20,000+ per night.
-
Atzaró Ibiza – A gorgeous countryside retreat surrounded by orange groves. Venue hire starts at around €10,000.
-
Elixir Shore Club – One of the best beach wedding venues, with costs around €12,000+ including catering.
-
Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza – Perfect for music lovers. Wedding packages start from £9,489 for 50 guests.
💡 Money-Saving Tip: If you’re flexible with your dates, booking in the off-season (October–April) can save you thousands!
Catering: Feeding Your Guests (Without Breaking the Bank)
Food and drinks are a major expense. Most Ibiza wedding caterers charge between €100 and €150 per person, which usually includes a multi-course meal and an open bar. Some venues offer all-inclusive packages, which can simplify things.
For a more budget-friendly option, consider family-style sharing platters or a sunset BBQ instead of a plated dinner.
Photography & Videography: Capturing the Magic
Let’s be real—your wedding photos will outlast the tan you’ll get in Ibiza, so this is not the place to cut corners. A professional photographer in Ibiza typically costs between €2,000 and €5,000, while a videographer will set you back another €2,000–€4,000.

Music & Entertainment: Because Silence Is Not an Option
A DJ in Ibiza costs around €1,000–€2,500, while a live band will start from €2,500. If you want something truly unique, consider hiring traditional Spanish guitarists or even a fire-dancing performance for that extra wow factor.
Florals & Décor: Bringing Your Vision to Life
Decor in Ibiza can range from minimalistic elegance to full-on Ibiza festival vibes. Expect to spend €1,500 to €5,000 on florals and décor. If you want a dreamy boho wedding, Ibiza’s florists can create stunning pampas grass and dried flower arrangements for a chic, modern look.
💡 Money-Saving Tip: Use the island’s natural beauty to your advantage! A sunset ceremony on a cliff requires almost no additional décor.
Legalities: The Boring (But Important) Stuff
If you’re not a Spanish resident, getting legally married in Ibiza can be tricky. Most couples opt for a legal ceremony in their home country and have a symbolic celebration in Ibiza. If you do want to go the official route, paperwork fees start at around €500, and the process can take a few months.
Guest Accommodations & Transportation
Hotels in Ibiza range from €150 per night for mid-range options to €500+ for luxury resorts. If your budget allows, consider booking a private villa where guests can stay together—it’s often cheaper than booking multiple hotel rooms!
For transport, renting a private shuttle for guests costs around €500–€1,500, depending on the number of people and locations.
💡 Money-Saving Tip: Choose a venue where accommodation is included in the package!
