Ir-Razzett L-Abjad, Malta
Where & When
The wedding ceremony and reception are both in the same place, so there’s no need to worry about moving around! The venue is called Ir-Razzett L-Abjad (the direct translation is ‘The White Farm’), which is in the town of Iklin in the east of Malta. The ceremony starts at 3pm, so please arrive for around 2:30pm to allow time to get seated. This will be followed by drinks, a sit-down dinner, and dancing until after midnight.
There’s a car park there for those of you who wish to drive, but we would recommend getting a taxi there and back as we’re planning to be partying till late and hope you’ll join us!
ECabs is a reputable taxi company: https://www.ecabs.com.mt
And Bolt is a taxi app, similar to Uber: https://bolt.eu/en-gb/cities/malta/
Where To Stay
We are staying near St. Julians, which is one of the most popular tourist areas in Malta. It’s right next to the sea and there are loads of restaurants and bars to go to, and a couple of small sandy and rocky beaches. Other nearby areas we’d recommend are Swieqi (Steph’s family home is here!) and Sliema.
From these areas there’s a more frequent bus service compared to other parts of the island. The wedding venue is roughly a 10 to 20-minute drive away from all of these places, traffic dependent of course. Bear in mind that the traffic can be very heavy in Malta at times!
Other popular tourist areas are in the north of the island (Mellieha, Qawra, Bugibba, St.Paul’s Bay) where the larger sandy beaches are. However, these areas are a bit further away from us and the venue, so you may need to hire a car to get around more easily. If you do decide to stay in one of these areas, we can recommend The Dolmen Hotel (shown below).
Recommendations
When looking to stay in these areas, the main thing to watch out for in reviews is noise. Feel free to ask us for any advice on accommodation you find, but here are some of our suggestions:
Gifts
While it’s enough of a present that you’re joining us to celebrate our special day, if you’d like to give us a gift, donations to our honeymoon fund would be amazing or see our wedding gift list below.
