Hotel Xereca Ibiza Wedding: Bethany & Callum’s Celebration
When Bethany and Callum chose to say “yes” at Hotel Xereca Ibiza, they opted for more than just a venue — they chose a place that would shape an entire wedding weekend experience.
Surrounded by citrus gardens, Mediterranean vegetation and historic rural charm, Hotel Xereca offered the perfect balance between elegance, privacy and relaxed Ibiza energy. Guided by their wedding planners at Marry Me Ibiza, Bethany and Callum created a celebration that felt deeply personal, immersive and unforgettable for every guest.
This real wedding story captures not only the beauty of the venue, but also the rhythm of the days, the shared moments with loved ones and the thoughtful planning behind every detail.
The Venue: Hotel Xereca Ibiza
Located just minutes from Ibiza Town, Hotel Xereca is a boutique rural hotel set among gardens, open lawns and natural Mediterranean landscapes. Its layout offers multiple versatile spaces that can be adapted for ceremonies, receptions and multi-day celebrations.
What makes Hotel Xereca particularly special for weddings is its flexibility: gardens, pool area, marquee space and indoor club coexist seamlessly, allowing couples to design a fluid experience rather than a single-day event.
Why Bethany & Callum Chose Hotel Xereca
Bethany and Callum were looking for a venue that felt intimate yet dynamic — a place where guests could truly relax and connect.
Their vision included:
- Privacy, without feeling isolated
- Natural surroundings, with character and authenticity
- Versatile spaces, adaptable throughout the weekend
With the guidance of Marry Me Ibiza, they were able to see the full potential of Hotel Xereca not just as a wedding venue, but as a setting for shared experiences before, during and after the big day.
The Wedding Day Experience
A Meaningful Morning: Activities & Connection
The wedding day began slowly and intentionally. Instead of rushing into preparations, Bethany and Callum used the morning to connect with their guests.
The group gathered for breakfast, sharing relaxed moments together. After that, the experiences split naturally:
- The bride and her friends enjoyed a private yoga class in the authentic shala located on the property. Guided by an exceptional mentor, it became a moment of grounding, feminine energy and calm — the perfect way to start such an emotional day.
- The groom and his friends, meanwhile, headed out for a morning of golf, combining activity, laughter and quality time together.
This balance of relaxation and shared experiences set the tone for the entire celebration.
Ceremony by the Pool
The ceremony took place in the pool area, surrounded by pine trees and lush Mediterranean vegetation. The natural backdrop created an intimate yet striking setting.
At the altar, two dense columns of white flowers framed the couple beautifully, enhancing the simplicity and elegance of the space without overpowering it. The ceremony felt serene, emotional and deeply connected to the environment — a perfect reflection of the couple’s vision.
Garden Aperitif & Interactive Moments
Following the ceremony, guests moved to the gardens for aperitifs among the greenery. This area became a lively and social space, filled with laughter and movement.
Interactive elements added personality to the moment:
- Polaroid cameras encouraged guests to capture spontaneous memories
- A mirror sign invited everyone to take playful selfies
These details transformed the cocktail hour into an experience rather than a transition.
Dinner Under the Marquee
Dinner took place beneath the venue’s marquee, beautifully illuminated with fairy lights. Live musicians created a warm, elegant atmosphere that carried throughout the evening.
Emotional speeches followed, and the couple’s entrance became one of the most memorable moments of the night: guests stood up, waving their napkins in the air in a joyful, authentically Spanish celebration that filled the space with energy and emotion.

1. Thoughtful Planning by Marry Me Ibiza

2. A Full Wedding Weekend Experience

Hotel Xereca also proved ideal for:
- Welcome events
- Pool parties
- Day-after celebrations
This multi-day approach transformed the wedding into a shared journey rather than a single event.

bride’s review
«I cannot tell you how incredible Marry Me Ibiza are – but I will try! My husband and I visit Ibiza regularly and decided to have a look around a few venues on a trip to the island. I contacted Marry Me after seeing them online and they were incredible from start to finish. Planning an abroad wedding is not an easy job and there is no way I could’ve done it without them!! They showed us around some venues after hearing what we were after and we chose the incredible Xereca Hotel that we hired exclusively.» – Bethany Brittain
