About Us

Two people, five brands,
one very long list of
weddings.

The Wedding Island isn't a franchise or a booking platform. It's the newest chapter from a business-partner duo who've spent years building a small family of wedding and event brands together, and who now want to do the same thing for American couples on Mallorca that they've already done for couples from Germany, Japan, and beyond.

Who's Behind It

Markus & Anikó

A wedding planner with 300-plus weddings behind her, and a former hotel-and-lodge builder who's called 95 countries a work trip. Together, they run the whole family of brands.

Wedding Planning & Officiating

Anikó Arzner

Anikó has planned and led more than 300 weddings, fluent in German, English, and Spanish, and equally at home managing a 12-person ceremony or a 200-guest estate buyout. She's the reason the logistics behind every Wedding Island celebration actually hold together.

Operations & Guest Experience

Markus Recknagel

Before weddings, Markus spent years building lodges, hotels, and language schools across Ecuador, and travelled to 95 countries along the way. He brings that same builder's instinct to every Wedding Island celebration: the logistics, the local relationships, and the small surprises that make a place feel considered rather than rented.

How We Work

What we actually believe about weddings

01

Curated, not listed

Every venue we recommend has been walked and vetted by us first. We'd rather show you five right venues than fifty possible ones.

02

The stay is part of the wedding

We design the days around the ceremony, not just the ceremony itself, because a wedding weekend is judged on all of it, not just the one afternoon.

03

One team, the whole way through

From the first email to the last goodbye brunch, you're working with the same two people who've done this hundreds of times before, not a rotating cast of subcontractors.

The Family Of Brands

One team, five ways to celebrate

The Wedding Island is the newest member of a small group of brands we've built together, each one built around a different way of celebrating.
