Laura & Marc said yes here, in September. If you can picture something similar, read this.

How they chose us

Laura and Marc wrote to us in May 2024. They had been planning for three years. They had visited six venues in Mallorca and two in Menorca. Their message was short: "We want something more intimate. We don't want a magazine production. We saw your photos on Instagram and the space caught our eye. Can we visit?".

A week later they came to the mill. They walked through the three rooms, stepped onto the terrace, sat under the stone vault. They didn't take notes; they looked at each other and said "it's here". They booked the date on the spot: 14 September 2024, a midday wedding with an evening cocktail.

The day

120 guests. Civil ceremony on the terrace (cream parasols, Mediterranean vegetation, an officiant who knew the family). Banquet in El Molino — the main room, under the centuries-old stone vault — with three long banquet tables. Mediterranean catering: starter tapas (canapés with local produce), cold and warm starters, main course (roast lamb or vegetarian option), three dessert options, Mallorcan cheese board as the close.

Final cocktail in the inner patio and the terrace, open bar, dedicated mixologist, acoustic DJ (no invasive sound, neighbours respected). The party ended at 23:00 — an early-closing wedding, grandparents made it home for dinner.

Concrete logistics

Capacity by format

Up to 130 guests in seated banquet with service. Up to 150 in cocktail/mixed-banquet. Up to 80 in El Molino alone. Up to 50 on the terrace alone. The 3 rooms + terrace together give you maximum capacity.

Catering

Contemporary Mediterranean cuisine, local produce. Adaptations for vegans, gluten-free, lactose-free, allergies. Menus closed 4 weeks before. External catering possible (with specific setup), though we prefer ours for logistics.

AV and production

Basic equipment included: wireless mic, ceremony speakers, ambient lighting. DJ/band brought by the couple. Mixologist and bar service billed separately. Day-of coordination by the SĀNTAL team (included).

Parking and logistics

Public parking at Plaça Progrés, 3 minutes' walk; private parking under Molino 2 with reserved spaces for guests. Taxis and Uber work well until 02:00.

Typical investment

We don't publish standard prices because each wedding is different. For an honest reference: a 100-120 guest wedding with everything (venue rental, full catering, bar, AV, coordination) usually lands in the €18,000 – €35,000 range, depending on menu, event length and season (high = May-October, low = November-April with 25-30% discount).

We don't charge commissions to external wedding planners — if you work with one, bring them. We don't have mandatory providers (florist, photographer, band), you choose your own. The only closed item is catering, due to kitchen logistics.

What we do differently

What happens at many Mallorca venues: 80 weddings a year, all with the same script, team exhausted by October. We do a maximum of 24 weddings per year in Palma. That means: the team is fresh for yours, we hold 4-6 planning meetings beforehand (not 1), and on the day there's a coordinator exclusively dedicated to you — not shared with another event.

We don't have a "standard" bridal suite — we use a private climate-controlled room set up bespoke with the hairdresser/make-up artist you choose. We don't impose timing — you pick midday-afternoon, afternoon-evening, or a double-day with dinner the following day.

Pre-weddings, ceremonies and nearby celebrations

We also do pre-weddings (symbolic evening ceremony, max 60 guests, freer format), vow renewals (short format, sunset on the terrace), and intimate pre-wedding dinners (night before, immediate family only, max 30 people). If you only want the civil ceremony without a banquet after, it's also possible — terrace ceremony + short cocktail, 60-90 minutes.

Next steps

The most useful: a guided visit to the venue. 45 minutes. We walk through the spaces, show you setup options, answer specific questions. No commitment. If after the visit you want a personalised quote, we put it together in 5 working days with proposed menu, timeline and budget.

If you want to see how a corporate event looks in the same space (different format), we have a dedicated post on the venue. And the Balearic Government letter recognising the Repsol Solete is here.
