When Ibiza meets India

Divya & Ollie Dickson 25 & 26 May 2024

 

 

Cardamom had the pleasure of meeting Divya & Ollie to plan their wedding over a year ago.
The couple struck us immediately as charming, elegant and good humoured, and they were surrounded by a loving and warm group of extended family and friends.
Their first wish was a Spanish style Mehendi party at their family house in Cala De Real, so we dressed the venue in colourful sari fabrics and served a wonderful traditional paella to their guests. The weather, the view and the family excitement made the first night the perfect ice breaker for all the guests to come together.
The big day comprised of 2 ceremonies. The Hindu and Western wedding ceremonies were organised separately at Atzaro Agroturismo in the Olive Garden and The Farm area with changes of outfits and styles. Both families were fully represented and the canapés and Indian wedding dinner were perfectly executed by Chef Lucia.
Our personal favourite part was a surprise acoustic performance by close friends Harriet, Grace & Tom of “You’re Still the One” which has special meaning to Craig and Navine from when they had their own Anglo-Indian wedding 23 years ago. Something they will share in common with our new friends Divya & Ollie forever…
A beautiful, family orientated wedding ❤️

It may all be work work work in the summer for the Cardamom Events Ibiza team. However, sometimes a little surprise pops up and we get to do the most wonderful things!

Earlier on in the season, an impromptu meeting invitation took us to the Peninsula Hotel in Paris – an offer we couldn’t turn down!

Teatro Pereyra – A Taste of Ibiza’s Iconic Culture

A Night At The Theatre – Teatro Pereyra finally reopens

Cardamom were recently invited to a night out at the theatre at the legendary Teatro Pererya in Ibiza Town. With 125 years of history, the Teatro Pereyra has been part of the collective imagination of many generations in Ibiza. For decades, it was the epicentre of the social and cultural life of the island, facilitating all kinds of activities: theatre, ballroom dances, variety shows, meetings, conferences, film screenings, etc. Now, after 16 years of remodelling, it has reopened its doors with the aim of recovering its identity and becoming part of the social life of all the people who had not been able to enjoy it until now.

The show’s name was Hippie Heaven – a live music dinner show created by Nacho Cano, one of the most recognised musicians, composers and producers on the national and international scene, as well as being an artist associated with Ibiza for decades. We were escorted to our booth, but later relocated to a table right at the edge of the stage where we fully submersed ourselves in the experience.

The show was accompanied by dinner service and cocktails created by international chef Emiliano Crucely. The story travels back in time to depict the history of Ibiza through dance and song. It truly was the most magical night. Thank you to Teatro Pererya for their hospitality and for reintroducing an important cultural scene to the island.

Cardamom Wedding Food Tasting

Behind The Scenes at an Atzaro Food Tasting

So much goes on behind the scenes of Ibiza wedding planning. One of the most important aspects of a wedding is the food, of course.

One of the Cardamom family’s nieces is getting married soon and we are planning the upcoming wedding ceremonies over several days with the main wedding at Atzaro.
The first step was the important tasting. Cardamom and Atzaro have always had a special partnership over many years but this time Chef Lucia hit the ball out of the park.
The tastiest Mediterranean/Indian delights from Canapés to dessert the family were blown away and so were we! Especially since Lucia has never been to India but researched the recipes extensively and put her personal touches to it all with the help of fresh farm vegetables from Atzaro itself.
Such amazing food and service from Rafa also.
Always a pleasure to work with Atzaro 😍 (Images below)
