Every wedding is different, but most couples will need a core team of 8–12 suppliers to ensure the day runs smoothly.
Here is a clear breakdown of what you’ll typically need — and what is optional.

---

✔ Essential Suppliers (recommended for all weddings)

1. Wedding Planner (strongly advised)

Not mandatory, but highly recommended.
Your planner manages:

• Timelines
• Supplier coordination
• Installations
• Guest flow
• Décor setup
• Ceremony logistics
• Troubleshooting
  This allows you to fully enjoy your day without stress.

2. Catering (Required → Zest only)

Zest handles all:

• Food service
• Bar service
• Drinks
• Staffing
• Equipment
• Cutlery, glassware, serviceware
• Setup & breakdown
  They are our exclusive partner — no other caterers allowed.

3. Photographer

To capture ceremony, speeches, couple portraits, details and celebrations.

---

4. Celebrant / Officiant

For symbolic ceremonies.
(If you want a Catholic ceremony, you must marry in church — closest are San Agustín and Es Cubells.)

5. Music / DJ

• Ceremony music
• Cocktail hour playlist
• Dinner background music
• DJ for The Cave
  Live bands are allowed until 22:00.

  Taxi services cannot be relied on in Ibiza and cannot be pre-booked.
