Want to show your love for your partner in your own way? We all like to show a certain degree of elegance and charm, especially during the most important events of your life such as the wedding day. In fact, when it comes to organising a wedding, we all want to make it memorable for ourselves as well as for our guests. There is more than just a traditional wedding. The popularity of quirky weddings is growing because it gives a couple the chances to show their guests more of themselves. However, unconventional locations are more likely for small weddings and what might be possible abroad could not be feasible in Malta.
What is a quirky wedding?
A quirky wedding is actually an unconventional way to celebrate a wedding ceremony. Undoubtedly, the most influential feature of a quirky wedding is the location. In fact, the choice of the location is crucial for the success of a quirky wedding. Good examples of unusual and attractive locations can be public libraries, art galleries, old council building, old factories and way more, as long as it is a public place. Therefore, a unique location could make the wedding more fun and the couple could have the ceremony at their favourite place.
Furthermore, the couple can also opt to make a spectacular entrance at the ceremony. This can be done in many different ways like by boat, riding a horse, on board a traditional means of transport and so on. It’s wherever the couple feels comfortable with and how they want to make their wedding more elegant.
However, for weddings in Malta, it is common to have the ceremony and the reception at two different places. This is only an advantage because the reception venue can now also be a quirky and elegant location. So overall, the wedding could be less formal and the couple can add more personal details to their most important day of their lives, as long as the venue is approved by the Marriage Registry in Malta.
Why a quirky wedding in Malta?

Although the country is quite small, Malta has a good potential for quirky weddings, especially in relation to what it has to offer in terms of characteristic and unique locations. A quirky wedding represents a lifetime experience and, as such, needs to have an extraordinary location, for example:
- Racecourses

The richness of Malta consists of such places which are always seen within the local context of the Mediterranean style. As a bride and groom, this could be the perfect location.
How to plan a quirky & elegance wedding in Malta?
Quirky weddings are currently on the increase. This is due to many factors and, particularly, to the wish to get extraordinary and unforgettable experiences. In this way, the wedding day can be made really exceptional for the marrying couple and for their guests alike.
However, when planning a quirky and elegant wedding and looking for these particular venues, there could be some drawbacks. For example, historical halls might be limited to restricted opening hours for private functions and this means one would need to take timings into consideration. It is also fundamental to be able to plan everything accordingly, but knowledge and expertise are essential to planning a proper quirky wedding. Furthermore, a couple needs to have a contingency plan in case of bad weather or a change in the number of invited guests. Finally, this is one of the reasons why it is always essential to seek a professional advice and discuss with a wedding planner all the thoughts you have.
