Celebration
The Hen & Stag Weekend
Three days, two nights, one yacht. The format the office runs more than any other.
The hen weekend in Ibiza, run well, is the format the office is asked to plan more than almost any other. Three days, two nights, the bride and her closest friends, one yacht, one villa for the morning of day one and the evening of day three.
Day one is intentionally calm — the hen weekend should not peak on its first evening. Day two is the long one: a swim at Espalmador, a chef's lunch at Cala Saona, the bow becomes the dance floor at sundown, the night ends when the bride says it does. Day three is the recovery — brunch on the aft deck, a final swim at Cala Bassa, disembark by 16:00.
The office handles
Quietly,
in the background.
- 01A welcome gift for the bride from the host — wrapped, in her cabin, when she arrives
- 02Cards from the friends who could not come, slipped into her cabin by the stewardess on the second night
- 03A photographer for ninety minutes at sundown on day two only
- 04Discreet sober support — if anyone isn't drinking, a parallel non-alcoholic drinks menu without it being announced
- 05A driver on standby through the weekend for anyone who needs to leave the boat or the villa unscheduled
- 06Optional DJ for the second-night sundown set — pre-paired with the boat's system

Suggested yachts
Built for this kind of day.
35.0 mFriendship
115ft Benetti — the flagship of the fleet. Refit in 2019, full-beam master suite, four further guest cabins, and a sundeck built for shaded dining at twelve. A crew of six runs the boat as a household: chef, two stewards, captain, two engineers. Built for weeks aboard, not days.
31.0 mDark Knight
102ft Leopard with twin MTUs, 26 knots flat. Built for owners who'd rather arrive than cruise — Formentera in forty minutes, Mallorca before lunch. Twelve guests across five staterooms; a crew of four who've been aboard since the 2023 refit.
31.0 mLa Romana
Sister hull to Dark Knight, refit 2024. Same Leopard 102 chassis, same twin MTUs — finished in warm teak and cream. Flybridge jacuzzi, foredeck sun pads, a tender lift that handles 4.2m. Quieter at speed than the original.
30.2 mLady KC
99ft Maiora with zero-speed stabilisers — comfortable at anchor in any swell. Flybridge jacuzzi, sun beds, sound system, and a full provisioning package included: seabob, jet ski, paddleboards, drinks. The reliable choice for guests who value stillness over speed.

Questions we hear
Most-asked.
How many friends can the bride bring?+
We recommend 8–12 friends on a single yacht — small enough for one conversation, large enough for a real party. Over 12 we arrange a second yacht alongside.
Can we hire a DJ for the boat?+
Yes. We have a short list of DJs we recommend specifically for yacht parties (the acoustics, wind and salt are different from a club). Tell us the date and we'll quote both the DJ and the boat.
What about activities besides swimming?+
On request: a private yoga teacher brought across from Ibiza for a session on the bow, a paddle-board race, a tender ride to a small cove, a sunset photographer, a private chef demo. Tell us the bride's interests and we shape the day around them.
Is there a separate stag option?+
Yes — same format, calibrated differently. Most stag weekends include jet skis, a wakeboard rig on the tender, a chef who does a proper steak lunch at anchor, and a quieter, longer brunch on day three. Tell us the groom's name in confidence and we plan around him.
