5 best event planners in Malta to hold grand extravaganzas
While planning small parties is fun and exciting, large gatherings can be hellish to coordinate on your own. The amount of communication needed can be too much for a single person.
This is where event planners remove the stress for clients by handling every detail, building backup plans and contingencies, and ensuring the entire event runs smoothly from start to finish.
I’ve personally had the help of some through the years and have come up with my choices for the best event planners in Malta. Through their experience, any party can be lively and hassle-free.
How much do event planners charge in Malta?
Event planners in Malta typically charge between 10% to 20% of the total cost of each event. This doesn’t include additional fees for specialised services, the duration of the planning, and additional hourly rates.
1. KG Events Malta
Address: 26, Binja tal-Gvern, Triq il-Gdida Ħal Luqa, LQA 1551
Contact Details: +356 7761 8905
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM
KG Events Malta is meticulous with what they do, which I’ve seen firsthand. Their organisers are best equipped to handle weddings, but they’re also capable of working with all demanding events.
This service is affiliated with the International Wedding Planners network, highlighting its strong industry credibility and expertise. Its high standards are evident in every event, making it a preferred choice for both local and international clients.
The types of events that they cater to range from baby showers to hen parties. But it doesn’t stop there, as I’ve seen them do well with serious events, like conferences.
I like that the firm has dedicated florists, photographers, and videographers, which lessens the need for clients to look for their own. Additionally, they’re connected with several five-star hotels and venues, so it’s as easy as choosing which one you’d like.
Still, their additional services aren’t included with the initial payments, so keep that in mind.
Big thumbs up, and I highly recommend her services
“Katia is the sweetest most professional person, she is very approachable, helpful and nice. An excellent service provided with a smile and she’s understands her client. Big thumbs up and I highly recommend her services.”

2. JUGS Malta
Address: VF2F+RVQ JUGS Malta Ltd, L-Imqabba
Contact Details: +356 2138 3825
Operating Hours:
- Open 24 hours
JUGS Malta has more than 20 years of experience with over 8,000 successful events delivered. I was impressed by the founders, Josef Gafa and Gianni Zammit, for their innovative approach to all corporate events.
Rather than simply focusing on events, they also provide unique services for team building experiences, conferences, and expos. I do appreciate their range of options, including both indoor and outdoor experiences, as well as seasonal offerings tailored to different times of the year.
It doesn’t stop there since they can even work on virtual conferences, which is a rare service that I haven’t seen elsewhere.
Aside from these, they deal with the usual events, such as summer parties and weddings. Impressively, these come in a variety of themes, the most unique being the Maltese-Inspired events option.
However, these events often create external disturbances that can disrupt smooth operations, especially when neighbourhood complaints arise and interfere with the overall experience.
It was engaging and stress-relieving
“The wool-web energiser organised during our corporate event was great fun!! The participants loved it – it was chaotic, engaging and stress relieving. Thanks JUGS for the great organisation of this activity!!”
– Stephanie Zahra (MT), Google Review
The day went by very smoothly
“Our place of work recently organised a team building event.. Event was well organised and JUGS took care of the whole setup for the day. The staff was very friendly and organised. Games were well planned out, the day went by very smoothly and everyone enjoyed the day.. Games were enjoyed by all ages.”

3. The Wedding Organisers by Jurgen Briffa
Address: Triq l-Għenba, Ħ’Attard
Contact Details: +356 7740 8897
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Thursday: 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
For a dedicated wedding planner, I’d recommend working with Jurgen Briffa. Since 1999, his event planning firm has helped clients save both time and money by managing the entire event from start to finish.
Clients appreciate his meticulous and refined approach as a planner. From the very beginning, Jurgen works closely with clients to develop the best possible plan for their needs. I was also impressed that he stays involved throughout the process, even through rehearsals.
His services cover the entire event, from securing the venue to arranging essentials such as security personnel—services clients may not initially realise they need. Jurgen even provides doves, further showcasing his dedication to delivering a complete and well-coordinated experience for his clients.
Even on the day itself, Jurgen is often working behind the scenes to ensure everything runs smoothly and flawlessly for both the bride and groom.
However, I do wish Jurgen offered his services for a wider range of events, such as baptisms and hen or stag parties, given how much his clients value his meticulous approach.
We couldn’t be more thankful
“We couldn’t be more thankful to Jurgen for making our wedding day stress-free and seamless. From the very beginning, Jurgen was always available to answer any queries we had, no matter how big or small, which gave us complete peace of mind throughout the planning process.
On the big day, he ensured that everything ran smoothly, coordinating every detail to perfection so we could just enjoy the day. His calm and reassuring manner made him an absolute pleasure to work with, and we genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us out with our wedding.
Thank you, Jurgen, for going above and beyond!”
– Anthony Borg, Google Review
We are truly very grateful for all the hard work
“We would highly recommend Jurgen and this business in helping organising your wedding.
From the first moment we met Jurgen, we were happy with the meeting and knew that he was the person we wanted to help us with organising our wedding.
He was very professional, compassionate, patient, understanding, responsive in our communications and was with us from beginning till the very end.
We could not have asked for anyone else. He was amazing and knew his work well.
We felt very at ease and relieved knowing that he was there to help and support us in what we needed to do and on our big day 🥰
Thank you Jurgen, we are truly very grateful for all your hard work and will also keep it close to our hearts.
We wish you all the best,
Anastasia & Mehmet”

4. Afterglow Events
Address: Central Business District, Triq il-Kalkara Tal-Gir, Birkirkara BKR 9064
Contact Details: +356 2703 3860
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM
Afterglow Events works with a wide range of well-known clients, such as Coca-Cola and Pepsi. Since their establishment in 2011, they’ve been a household name in Malta, known for their unique Afterglow effect.
Each event becomes a memorable experience thanks to the agency’s bespoke approach, designing décor and activities based on the client’s wishes. I also appreciate their transparency in their work ethic and the consistent updates they provide, which clients highly value.
Their services are also well known for team-building experiences, and I can personally agree with that. They offer a wide range of activities, including canvas and cocktail painting, as well as a unique game show experience.
For typical events, they are known for hen parties, entertainment experiences, and themed events. I’ve seen how efficiently they work—from the initial branding and concept development all the way through to execution.
However, clients are required to settle their fees within business hours. Otherwise, their events may be cancelled.
We cannot imagine doing the event without their assistance
“Afterglow have assisted us with the logistics and planning of our La Valette Marathon since 2022. They have always proven to be professional and ready to help. We cannot imagine doing the event without their assistance.”
– Francesca (corsa.mt), Google Review
They were so easy to communicate with leading up to the event
“Afterglow helped us with entertainment for our daughters 6th birthday, and they were so easy to communicate with leading up to the event.
And at the event couldn’t have asked for better entertainment from the animators, all the kids loved it and they really came in with such a great energy and positivity. Happy to know where to go to for future kids events and would highly recommend. Thank you Afterglow!”

5. Perfect Weddings
Address: Fl 2, Apple Orchard A, Mdina Road, Ħ’Attard ATD 9036
Contact Details: +356 9940 2419
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Another dedicated wedding planner is Perfect Weddings. Established in 2009 by Patricia Falzon, she’s been working in the industry since 1995 and has been a feature in the Maltese wedding scene.
Her weddings have been featured in numerous blogs and magazines around the world, and she caters to all types of weddings. I like that, aside from the traditional Catholic ones, she can also cater her services to whatever culture the bride and groom originate from.
She has venues in Malta and Gozo, which are beloved by clients. My favourite of these has to be the Valletta view, as this modern-designed restaurant is perfect for large gatherings. Additionally, I like the Red Tower and the Castle on the Hill for their rustic vibes.
Perfect Weddings’ portfolio is extensive, and clients can easily look through it to see which wedding resonates with them.
However, they don’t offer extra services, such as catering, so you’ll have to look for a different service for each vendor.
They anticipated every detail
“It’s genuinely hard to put into words just how incredible Pat, Sara, and the entire Perfect Weddings team were. From our very first conversation in July 2024 to the day we said “I do” a year later, they were nothing short of phenomenal.
From day one, we were blown away by their deep knowledge and understanding of Asian weddings, their warmth, and their “nothing is too much trouble” attitude. Pat and Sara didn’t just plan our wedding — they lived it with us. They became our advisors, our sounding boards, and at times, our therapists — always knowing exactly how to calm us down when wedding stress inevitably crept in.
Their dedication went far beyond what we ever expected. They anticipated every detail, found creative solutions to every challenge, and handled every moment with professionalism and care. Thanks to them, everything ran seamlessly throughout the wedding weekend — and our guests couldn’t stop praising how friendly, organised, and attentive the Perfect Weddings team was.
Quite simply, our wedding would not have been possible without Pat and Sara. They went above and beyond in every possible way, and we will be forever grateful. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.”

The name says it all
“Well… where to start!!!??? Perfect Weddings…. the name says it all really!
My partner and I had been looking to get married in Malta for a few years and when it finally came to start making arrangements and organising our special day we knew we would need to seek the assistance of a wedding planner out in Malta. We looked around, saw a couple of planners but had no doubt what so ever who we would be asking to help us out after we met Pat from Perfect Weddings for the first time… It was an absolute no brainer. She took her time, listening to what it was my partner and I wanted from our wedding day and helping us understand what we needed to do to make it happen, which as it turned out, was not alot, Pat and her Perfect Weddings team were absolutely fantastic throughout the 12 months of planning. Relentless, tireless in making sure we were kept in the loop at all times and that we would have nothing to worry about.. which gave us time to concentrate on the fun stuff. Perfect Weddings is a really well established company and it is no surprise to me why this is. Attention to detail and the effort Pat and her team put in when planning a wedding is just phenomenal, nothing is ever too much trouble for the team and they completely exceeded our expectations and more! Our wedding day was fantastic and enjoyed by all the family and friends that were able to make the trip to the Beautiful Island of Malta. We visit Malta regular and we have made many friends out there over the years and I’m delighted to say we have gained a few more this trip and will certainly be keeping in touch with Pat and her team all year round. Congrats ladies, you all did amazing for Rainey and me, thank you so much. See you soon”
