You could have a lavish and luxurious wedding for hundreds of thousands of euros, or a budget-friendly unique and gorgeous wedding for less than twenty thousand euros. It is very important to work with a destination wedding planner that knows the island and can offer you the best packages that suit your needs and budget.

5. Beautiful and Pristine Beaches

White sand and crystal clear waters are characteristics of most of the beaches in Mallorca. While you might not select a seafront venue and opt for a traditional finca or a countryside hotel, you might still spend days at the beach with your partner soaking in the sun, or your guests might be enjoying the variety of water sports offered all around the island. On every side of the island, you find hidden gems of rocky coves and secluded, pristine beaches that you could visit for a romantic and private getaway with your partner.

6. Incredible Mediterranean Cuisine

Mallorcan cuisine has been exposed to various influences over the centuries and is based on all the Mediterranean ingredients. There is a fusion of styles with most restaurants and caterers generally offering Mediterranean dishes as well as traditional Mallorcan ones, all of which are rooted in local ingredients. With a variety of fish, seafood, local meat, seasonal vegetables and fruits, freshly baked breads, sweet and salty pastries, and a generous use of olive oil and garlic, who wouldn’t be in love with this cuisine? For your wedding dinner, there are a variety of options to choose from as well as Michelin Star chefs to hire for a special and luxurious wedding dinner experience. 

7. Fun Activities and Cultural Opportunities

Mallorca is filled with fun activities for sports enthusiasts, culture seekers, and beach lovers. Even though the island is the largest of the Balearic islands, it is still relatively small. This means that you and your guests can easily travel around the island to explore the various areas and all the activities they have to offer. 

There are various natural parks and nature reserves that are protected areas of incredible natural beauty. Activities for you and your guests could include walking, hiking and wildlife observation. 

If you or your guests are water lovers, you also have a lot to enjoy. These include scuba diving and snorkeling, waterskiing and jet skiing, sailing, kitesurfing, paddle boarding and kayaking.  

Nature lovers could also explore the Serra Tramuntana which is the most important mountain range in Mallorca. It runs from the southwest to the northwest of the island and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The beautiful melange of mountains, valleys, and forests combined with historic towns and villages harmoniously contribute to the exceptional mountain range. You and your guests could enjoy a day exploring parts of the extraordinary mountain range and bask in the amazing panoramic views.

For the culture lovers, there’s also a rich history all over the island, from the Chopin Museum in Valldemossa to the famous cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma.

An experienced wedding planner could help organize day-time trips that are interesting for you and your guests throughout your stay before and after the wedding.

8. Magical Views for Beautiful Photos and Lasting Memories 

A wedding on the magical island of Mallorca will definitely be unforgettable! But when stunning landscapes, breathtaking picture perfect views, and impressive venues are in your background, your photos and videos would be all the more incredible, leaving anyone that sees them amazed and awestruck. Your family and friends, and the professional photographer if you hire one, will definitely be snapping photos and videos during the wedding day as well as throughout the duration of your stay in Mallorca, capturing those special moments in time for memories that will last a lifetime.  

9. A Vibrant Nightlife

Mallorca offers a thriving nightlife all around the island. There is a wide variety of trendy nightclubs, rooftop bars and beach clubs that you could book partially or exclusively to party with your guests before or after the wedding. Let your wedding planner know if partying at a nightclub is an event you would like to add to your destination wedding itinerary.

10. Family-Friendly Environment

Even though the island boasts a very vibrant nightlife, that doesn’t mean that children are not catered to and well-taken care of. There are lots of venues and hotels that are family-friendly so the little ones won’t feel left out. It is also quite easy to hire babysitters to take care of children during adult only events, or if pre-wedding parties last until the wee hours!

With the island being a hot destination for weddings, it is best to get in touch with a wedding planner as soon as possible if you decide to have your destination wedding there.
