Ah, the Blue Lagoon — where the Mediterranean’s turquoise waters kiss sun-kissed limestone cliffs, and where every second breeze seems to whisper: “Say I do here.” If you’re dreaming of a beach wedding that feels like a fairytale without the overpriced glass slipper, Malta’s Blue Lagoon might just be your happy ending.
Why Choose Blue Lagoon Malta for Your Wedding?
So, why here? Picture this: you, standing barefoot on a tiny island called Comino, surrounded by the impossibly blue waters of the Blue Lagoon, your partner’s smile brighter than the Maltese sun. There’s no need for heavy décor — nature has already done the job (and she’s fabulous, might I add).
Malta’s Blue Lagoon is a bucket-list-worthy location. Its vibrant blue waters, secluded coves, and dramatic cliffs form the perfect canvas for couples looking for something intimate, personal, and wildly photogenic. Whether you’re eloping or inviting your dearest 20 (or 50) souls, this spot effortlessly balances romance and adventure.
How to Plan Your Blue Lagoon Wedding (Without Losing Your Mind)
📜 Legal Side (yes, it’s a thing)
Malta welcomes international couples to tie the knot. But, like any good island adventure, there’s paperwork involved. You’ll need:
- Valid passports
- Birth certificates
- Marriage application (filed at least 6 weeks prior)
- Official translations if your documents are not in English
Find all the official info on the Malta Marriage Registry.
⏰ Best Timing?
Summer? Gorgeous, but also busy. Picture sunbathers turning into unexpected wedding guests. For a calmer, more private vibe, aim for late spring (May–June) or early autumn (September–October). Early mornings or weekday ceremonies? Even better.
⛵ Getting There
Comino is only accessible by boat, giving you full-on “Pirates of the Caribbean but make it romantic” vibes. Regular ferries run from Malta and Gozo — check Comino Ferries Co-op — or go all-in and book a private boat. Your guests will love it, and it makes for unforgettable photos.
Setting the Scene: Less is More
Trust me — Blue Lagoon needs little help. A delicate arch with local wildflowers, barefoot guests, maybe a rustic table with Maltese pastizzi (cheesy pastries that make everyone smile) — voilà, magic. And if dolphins decide to crash the party (it happens more often than you think), consider it a blessing.
Tip: Beach blankets instead of chairs? Instant charm.
Malta Wedding Photography — The Secret Sauce
Your wedding photos here won’t just be “pretty” — they’ll be art. The sun, the sea, the cliffs, the spontaneous wind in your hair (nature’s hair stylist), and that authentic Mediterranean glow are the perfect recipe.
As a photographer who’s walked these shores many times with joyful couples, I know the secret spots and when the light hits just right. Yes, I’ll probably make you run barefoot at sunset — but trust me, it’s worth it.

Where to Celebrate After “I Do”?
Comino itself is pure nature — no hotels, no banquet halls. That’s part of the charm. Most couples hop back to Malta or Gozo for the reception. Some of my favorites:
- Ta’ Frenc (Gozo) — tafrenc.net — rustic fine dining
- Xara Palace Relais & Châteaux (Mdina) — xarapalace.com.mt — for those who want to feel like royalty
Bonus: Turn It Into a Mini Honeymoon
Why not? Explore Gozo’s secret beaches, dive with colorful fish, or sip wine at a vineyard under the stars. Malta is small but mighty when it comes to hidden gems.
Real Talk: The Only “Con”
Malta’s weather is usually chef’s kiss, but nature likes to keep things spicy. Always have a Plan B (or at least a backup umbrella). And please, leave only footprints — the Blue Lagoon is too precious for glitter confetti.
Why Couples Love It (And So Will You)
Blue Lagoon weddings aren’t just weddings. They’re sunlit adventures, salty-hair kisses, and laughter echoing off limestone caves. You’ll tell this story at every dinner party for the next 50 years, and it will never get old.
