It`s september and we re entering THE WEDDING MONTH and lots of

work for Ibiza Catering .

One of our favorites this summer is the fantastic down to earth

countryside style wedding in the heart of Ibiza. Authentic Set up in a 500

years old finca with NO BLING BLING ! pure , simple and totally

impressive !

A long wedding dinner table underneath old trees , a romantic ceremony

in the garden right next to the pool. Classic Ibizan cuisine , local and

organic products perfectly cooked and arranged – a true mediterranean

feast  for 90 emotional touched guests – thats the other , the natural side of

Ibiza.

The cocktail bar was attached to the 400 years old barn , a variety of fresh

baked fochaccia bread , warm fluffy and delicious – served right off the

oven.

The guests arrived and automatically felt homy and welcomed .

the couple reduced the amount of extern waitstaff to a minimum as the

atmosphere was authentic and more like a family style get together .

Food was passed around , taking care of each other was the motto of this

very special day : casual , relaxed and  very charming .

 

after the ceremony was over – the groomsmen helped carrying the stools

back to the dinner table which was decorated with the flowers directly

from the Finca garden . Local spanish wines and fresh baked bread with

aioli plus the best olives welcomed the crowd .

 

 

a variety of crisp and delicious salads plus finest iberico ham in super thin

slices started the dinner .

everything was served in family style ( bowls, platters, plates ) – a true

family table .

the main course was spectacular : Whole Hog Roast from a spit with

20 ibizan herbs and spices – cracklings to die for and crisp rosemary

potatoes combined with a mediterranean Ratatouille made of local

vegetables . simple, fresh and enough to feed an army ….

instead of serving a wedding cake , we served wedding ice cream from

a real 1962 Ice Cream Vespa Moto !

 

that was the surprise of the night

everyone was craving for excellent homemade ice cream in 8 flavors

after a variation of local cheeses , grapes & fresh figs the party was ready

for a fantastic dance under moon and stars . Ibiza wedding

far away from chrome, chi chi and the usual things everyone expecting .

we can say that we loved it because of its simplicity and authenticity .

the crew is happy to add another happy couple to our looooong client list

a couple that s happily ever after …..

all the best folks ! sending sunny greeting from Ibiza .
