Though church ceremonies remain firm favourites in Malta, civil ceremonies are on the increase both with local couples and also with an ever-increasing number of foreign visitors who wish to combine the exchange of vows with a honeymoon.
Possibilities for civil weddings at the Palace are endless - whether one opts for a simple ceremony in the gilded Ballroom or on the upstairs open air terrace, followed perhaps by Champagne and canapes, or a full-blown Buffet or silver service Gala Dinner for friends and family in the gorgeous Palace gardens, this fairytale venue remains exclusively yours for the evening. You may therefore utilise any area of the Palace, including the lavishly decorated Ballroom, the elegant Sala Lombarda or the lovely gardens for those all-important photos.
Venue Hire Fees are charged for the exclusive use of Palazzo Parisio and Gardens outside public (excluding Luna di Sera, the Luna Lounge & Cellars). Rates are available on request and will vary according to number of guests and whether the function is on a weekday or weekend.
Civil Ceremonies can take place Monday to Sunday between 15:00 hrs and 18:00 hrs.
Civil Ceremony followed by Dinner: Venue Fees are based on 5 hours rental and there is no minimum as to the number of guests.
Wedding Cakes are available in Almond, Fruit or Chocolate with a choice of one, two, three tiers or more - prices on request. Silver-coated Almond Perlini and Pasta Reale, plus 2 Witness Cakes are also provided on a complimentary basis, when ordering a three tier cake.
