Richie & Bri
BASTION TERRACE WEDDING, VALLETTA
This wedding location is nestled between 16th Century bastions, with spectacular sea views, in a 5 star hotel in Valletta.
Richie and Bri first contacted me over 3 years ago but due to Covid their original wedding date was postponed, so when they made it to Malta in June this year it was an extra special celebration.
Malta has always been special to the couple, they came on holiday several times and have a home here. Richie also proposed to Bri in Malta with the Grand Harbour as a backdrop so it was no surprise they would want to marry here. The hotel itself, Grand Hotel Excelsior was also special as it is where they used to stay on their trips.
The Bastion Terrace was a beautiful setting for their ceremony. Decorated with bright coloured gerberas around the outside of the railings and also in the urns which were set up with the sea view backdrop.
A pianist set the mood for the ceremony and the cocktail whilst guests enjoyed drinks and nibbles.
Dinner was set up inside the marquees which are positioned in front of the terrace offering the spectacular views whilst guests enjoyed their 5 star dinner and open bar.
I wish Richie & Bri all the best in their future together and a special thanks to all my suppliers who helped with this wedding.

Testimonial
My husband and I were so happy that we chose Lisa at Amethyst Weddings to be our Planner. It was the best decision ever! We started planning our big day in 2020, hoping to get married in June 2021. We had everything booked and then the Covid shutdown happened. Lisa took care of all of the postponements and had everything changed to June 2022. She has excellent contacts for everything including flowers, photographer, musicians, make up artists, hair dressers, and decorators. She was able to arrange multiple quotes and suggestions for our decorating needs. She liaised with the venue on our behalf, which was very useful, because we live in Germany. She arranged all meetings for us for when we were in Malta, and handled a sudden cancellation of multiple meetings due to us catching Covid with grace and good humour. She coped with all of our changes with a smile and empathy, although this would have caused her much work. We never had to wait for answers to our questions (even on weekends and when she was on holiday!) and she gave us regular updates. On the actual day, the venue, flowers and decorations were just perfect, the hair and make up artists were early and did a great job, the dress she helped me to find was lovely, and Lisa was there to manage it all. So many people said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. We could not have done it without her! We highly recommend choosing Lisa to help you with your special day.
