Who Says Corporate Can’t Be Luxe?

Who Says Corporate Can’t Be Luxe?

Earlier on in the 2017 season, Cardamom Events were asked to organise a corporate incentive trip for a group of 90 investment bankers. Of course, we grabbed this opportunity gladly, as there is nothing we enjoy more than showing off what the magical White Isle has to offer.

There is so much to see and do, so it would be easy to attempt to cram as much as possible into our guests’ event, giving them a plethora of activities and options.

However, as experience has often shown, less is more, and in our usual serenely unique style, we gave them a full day on the Mediterranean Sea on a luxury boat party with water sports and on-board catering, followed by a fabulous 3-course dinner of sharing plates  accompanied by champagne and cocktails, and a disco at the stunning Lamuella in their open air dining and dancing area.

All planning, organisation, transportation, logistics and entertainment were taken care of by Cardamom Events.

Cardamom’s First Events of Summer 2017

Cardamom’s First Events of Summer 2017

It’s only May and we already have two major events under our belt. Two extraordinary birthday celebrations delivered with love.

For Lillijana’s birthday we were asked to provide an intimate, jovial and musical environment at the client’s family home. We were able to create a rustic vibe which was carried through from the furniture (our new bespoke-made wooden tables), to countryside flowers and a relaxed service to cater for all the wonderful surprises on the day.

The food too was an informal affair – big family-sized sharing platters with a vegetarian bias provided by Chef Alessandra.

A wonderful family celebration with friends from far and wide, and musical performances from start to finish.

For Pip’s birthday bash, we created a unique and intimate celebration with a luxury dining experience.

The venue, Villa Marysol, is modern yet relaxed with sea views and a high-level interior.

Again we brought our unbeatable attention to detail, down to the opulent table settings of handmade crockery, cutlery and glassware made in Portugal, which gave an edge of sophistication to the day…

 

Teams include:

Chef Juanpi Leonardi

BackRoom Productions

Ibiza House Orchestra

DJ Buddah

A Day In The Life…

So what really goes on when the island’s most elite event planners throw an event in their own home? Step inside and take a peek…

Wedding and corporate event planning comes naturally to Navine and Craig, directors of Cardamom Events. So one spring afternoon, they invited a group of personal friends to enjoy and alfresco lunch by the pool of their exquisite Ibiza villa and made it look both relaxed and luxurious in an effortless manner.

One of the Cardamom team’s in-house chefs Ally Beatty prepared a delectable menu of fresh seasonal plates. Highlights included his whole cauliflower shwarma with pomegranate, coriander and pine nuts, his heavenly slow-roasted vegetable antipasti and his bite-sized edamame sliders. The wine flowed and the sun shone. A perfect primavera day…

Cardamom recommends…

Cardamom recommends…

It’s September. For many people in Ibiza that means time to finally start to ease off the throttle of summer madness – plus the vacation crowd attracted to September often seek a slightly more luxurious and relaxing trip to the island. Why? Well, the weather gets slightly less scorching yet the days are still long and warm, the sea is now at perfect dipping temperature, and with slightly fewer tourists, the overall island energy (and traffic!) is much more pleasurable.

Our September recommendation therefore comes in the form of the 5 star Aguas de Ibiza Revival Spa. At 40€ to access for non hotel guests (which includes use of the pools and steam rooms), and with bolt on Clarins treatments and restaurant options such as a set three course lunch, there is arguably no better way to unwind in Ibiza. The Santa Eulalia spa was renovated last winter and now hosts some beautiful spaces to unwind and you leave feeling like you’ve received a true 5 star experience.

We visited the spa a couple of weeks ago and the experience was simply magical. Opting for the three course lunch which included a salad starter, chicken main and fruity desert we then entered the spa and did the rounds of the steam rooms and jet pool – to ease up our knotty shoulders until we received Clarins hot stone massages – which were incredible. The staff were polite, professional and calming – as was the entire experience (which came in at around 200€). Just what we needed!

Aguas is also a fantastic venue to host your Cardamom event (think rooftop birthday drinks with marina views, a wedding in a luxurious courtyard or hosting a dinner in one of the many fine dining restaurants at Aguas), plus the bedrooms and suites are divine (group bookings made through Cardamom receive a 10% discount). Go on, treat yourself! For more information, contact [email protected] today.

Make your own version of our famous Cardamom Cava Sangria

Make your own version of our famous Cardamom Cava Sangria

So it’s a UK bank holiday today, and that means one thing – Family & friends having BBQ’s (no matter the weather)! In honour of it being the peak of summer – we thought we’d share a special secret with you today!

Cardamom have created a few food and drink items over the years which guests always ask us how to make at home. One of these is the enjoyment of our Cardamom Cava Sangria recipe. Ideal for a hot afternoon – refreshing, fruity, ice cold and with the perfect amount of alcohol to relax you into any event, this drink choice is very popular in Ibiza, especially as an event welcome drink. To try our recipe at home, simply follow the following steps:

Prep time: Part day before (15 mins max), 30 mins on the day

Equipment:
Glass jug x2 (or x1 item similar to hold fruit in fridge overnight)
Knife
Chopping board
Fridge space
Stirrer
Wine glasses for serving

Ingredients:
1 apple
1 pear
1 peach
A handful of strawberries
Sugar syrup
Ice (lots!)
30cl Vodka
20cl Dark Rum
25cl Cointreau
Cold fresh orange juice (no bits!)
A cold bottle of Cava (or two!)

How to:

1. Cut up the apple, pear, peach, strawberries, place into jug (or similar) & cover in sugar syrup. Leave overnight to soak in the fridge.

2. Use fresh jug and fill ½ way with ice.

3. Add vodka, rum, cointreau, fruit.

4. Add orange juice until jug ½ full.

5. Add cold cava until full & stir.

6. Refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Now – we tend to make our cava in mass production, meaning the recipe quantities are just a guide. If you feel you want more alcohol, more fruit or to add your own twist – play around with it until it is your very own recipe! Plus one extra top tip for even more enjoyment; put your glasses in the freezer 1 hour before serving, then remove and pour into chilled, frosted glasses!

Contact us today to order our very own cava sangria at your Ibiza event [email protected]. Special thanks to Fernando our Matre Di, for sharing this top secret recipe! 😉

Cardamom Corporate

Cardamom Corporate

2016 has been a successful summer of progression for Cardamom so far. Whilst our weddings, private events and catering projects have remained fruitful and something we are incredibly passionate towards, we have also focused on delivering some key projects for our Corporate clients – which is becoming an increased area of focus for professional events happening in Ibiza.

Combining his wealth of experience in luxury group travel, business incentive projects and corporate hospitality, Dirk also has an impressive list of incredible corporate event suppliers and specialists on the island – making him the perfect addition to our team.

This included a cooking show, catering and all transport managed by Cardamom. Following this we partnered with our friends Amplified and Kit & Caboodle to work on an energy drink prize winners event with 30 guests across two weeks, where we delivered a full schedule of on site catering which saw our chef Juan Pi flip Burgers with Ibiza DJ legend Carl Cox! We also supported a luxury boat event for press surrounding this project with our catering as well.

October will see the next corporate project for us, which is an employee incentive project for international travel company. 120 guests will enjoy a fantastic agenda of beach games plus a high end gala ginner – all by team Cardamom.

Something sweet

Something sweet

One of our gorgeous couples wanted something special and sweet this year. We did a vanilla bean lactose free cake topper covered in marshmallows and dripping chocolate (to cut), with a macaroon tower alongside it (raspberry, vanilla and almond flavours), which added some colour and fun to this beautiful wedding.
