With crystal clear waters and no shortage of sandy beaches, there’s absolutely no reason why one wouldn’t want to have a beach wedding in Malta. However, organising such a lavish celebration of love in a beautiful, scenic setting which lacks the appropriate infrastructure is not without its challenges. Get Hitched walks you through the steps you need to go through to have your dream kickass beach wedding in Malta.
1. Consult with Experts
It should go without saying, but the first thing you need to do when organising a beach wedding in Malta is consult experts who are able to point you in the right direction. Visit Get Hitched.com.mt and start by writing the date of your wedding and the venue you’d like and then sit back and wait for the suggestions to roll in. Get Hitched can help you sort out everything from where you can get the cheapest marquee to the best catering.

2. Have the Right Documentation
It is important to note that in order to hold a wedding on a public beach in Malta, you will need a permit. That said, if you opt to get married at one of the several private lidos scattered around the island, you will not need a permit. While many people may dream of being able to just roll up and join hands in eternal bliss, that’s easier said than done because all wedding locations need to be approved by the Maltese Marriage Registrar beforehand. Try not to let this dishearten you: if you don’t leave things till the last minute, your choice will probably be given the green light.

3. Choose Your Date Wisely
A lot of people might not immediately take this into consideration but date is key when you’re having a wedding in a very public place. While Malta tends to be quieter in the autumn and winter months, the same cannot be said for summer. Make sure to scan all the online calendars you can and contact the appropriate local council to confirm whether or not something is happening on the date of your choice. Of course, this is not fool proof, however, it will give you an indication of how busy the public beach of your choice might be on a given day or time. With any luck, you might even be treated to a free firework show from a nearby village feast.

4. Make Choices
While getting married at a private beach which already has gazebos set up and can accommodate chairs, tables and lighting is most definitely easier, there are some couples who will opt for a particular beach because it has special significance for them. In this case, you can either make plans with a nearby hotel or you can put together all the components yourself through Get Hitched. Make a checklist of what you think you will need and don’t be shy to ask for advice and opinions. Once you input your wish to have a beach wedding, vendors will be suggested to you based on that which means that you won’t even have to do the legwork and sift through countless unverified vendors. Choosing the right place to have a beach wedding in Malta has never been easier!
