Feedback from some of our clients who had their wedding in Sliema
Yuliya and Alexei – Sliema is a was very busy city in Malta. I was stunned that our wedding planner found us this greatly restored villa to get married into. Despite the wedding venue was in the centre of Sliema it felt very intimate and away from all the hassle and bustle. Very Very romantic and the attention to detail (both our wedding planner as well as from the wedding venue) was incredible.
Jodie and Mike – Loved our Sliema wedding. We had some guests with mobility issued and the wedding venue was a stone throw away from the hotel. The decor, flowers, service and the overall vibe was great. Look forward to visit Malta again and I am sure we will again stay in Sliema
