Mallorca’s popularity means that it’s a familiar destination for many people, so they can imagine themselves there at your wedding. It’s a whole lot easier than getting people to commit to a long haul flight to the Caribbean or Maldives!

4. Flights

Flights are quick, flexible and inexpensive from everywhere. So it’s super-easy for your guests to find the right flights at the right prices.

5. Great value

People who have stayed in Mallorca before won’t be intimidated by the idea of having to spend a fortune while they are here.

They know they’ll be able to find good value for the rest of their stay. Hotel prices can notoriously high in many places in Europe, but in Mallorca accommodation is plentiful with a good range of prices. And if you have friends and family coming from the USA, Australia or the Far East, Mallorca is a great mid-way point.

6. Family-friendly

Mallorca has some great family-friendly places for weddings and it’s easy to arrange nannies to take care of little ones.

But if you do decide to have an adults-only wedding, your guests get to have a mini-break for themselves with the freedom not to worry about entertaining the children.

Children can take part in the ceremony as flowergirls or ring-bearers

7. Great cuisine

One of the larger costs of any wedding is the food and drink during the day and the evening. Mallorca offers everything from Michelin-starred chefs, to informal wedding barbecue buffets with delicious grills, fresh fish and tasty desserts. It’s all washed down with excellent value wines and sparkling cava (Spanish champagne).
