I Do Knot - Weddings Planners Malta

I Do Knot Malta helped us, from January until November 25th, 2017, organising a two-day, tri-cultural, bi-lingual wedding for over 100 guests from all over the planet. As frequent travelers ourselves, The team was incredibly responsive and capable of working around our rapidly changing work schedules for both communications and on-site visits. If anything, sometimes information during the planning would fall through the cracks, but they would always remedy those instances with minimal disturbance to both guests and ourselves. I Do Knot had a tremendous range of dependable vendors, partners, and suppliers they interfaced with, and quickly managed to attune to our personal preferences and ideas for the wedding. If something was not available through their vendors, they would quickly source it from their network, even for obscure or foreign items or meals. They could switch rapidly from taking charge on something and offering us clear and concise ideas and choices, to assisting in letting us arrange or come up with ideas for things that we wanted to do a very specific way. During the wedding, the I Do Knot team was on-site, and on point. We've been told that no wedding happens without issues or last-minute problems, but with how fast and painlessly any of those were resolved, the wedding might as well be considered flawless. Without their help, it would've been absolutely impossible to make these perfect two days a reality.

The service of Petra and her team was first class. Every aspect was thought out and handled by the idoknot team. Each guest was looked after so well by the lovely Matthew. I couldn't praise these guys highly enough.

It’s hard to plan a wedding and it’s much harder to plan a destination wedding. But ours was perfect, thanks to the amazing support from Petra and her team. They were with us every step of the way, from picking us up (in a stormy night) and showing us around Malta the first time we were there to seeing us through everything during our wedding week. Petra and her team even took me dress shopping and I got the most beautiful wedding dress. They kept me calm and collected during the entire process and my husband and I couldn’t be more thankful for their help. We highly recommend Petra and her I Do Knot team.

Petra and her team are amazing the day went flawlessly. Charlene was lovely and so helpful when we were all getting ready, it is really handy having an extra pair of hands about when everyone is getting dresses on!. She made sure the brides had everything they needed and sorted out an issue with the hotel with a smile. Everyone knew where they needed to be and when. I think it really helped that Petra knew all the other suppliers and was able to easily keep in touch with them and manage everything. If there were any problems it was never made evident to the guests or the brides.The team were always about in the background if we ever needed them but never intruding which must have been hard when there was less than 20 of us. Overall I dont think it would have been possible to pull off the day without them. I would Highly recommend.

I Do Knot gave us friendly (yet professional) & thorough correspondence throughout the two years of planning. We genuinely mean it when we say there is nothing we could write that would praise them the amount they deserve or measure up to the appreciation we have for them. Our guests were all so complimentary, the planning was never stressful for us and everything went smoother than we could imagine on the day. They were personal, caring & helpful from the very beginning. We could not recommend I Do Knot enough.

Thank you so much for arranging our perfect wedding. Charlene and Matthew worked very hard, paying attention to every detail and making sure everything was perfect. Couldn't have asked for more.

Petra and all the team at I Do Knot Malta were wonderful, they listened to what we wanted and gave us options that suited us. Everything was very well organised and personal. I cannot fault their professionalism, dedication and commitment- it was first class! We put our complete trust in the team and they definitely did not disappoint.

Petra and Mauro were absolutely brilliant. They brought together a day that far exceeded our greatest dreams and beyond everyone's expectations. They were really relaxed through the whole process and despite some initial angst, we were beyond wow'd by their commitment to organising the perfect day. The 'I Do Knot' team provided so much support not only on the day but all the days leading up and beyond. This meant we, our families and friends, could really relax and enjoy every moment of our time in Malta! Thanks so much Mauro, Petra and team. Wishing you every success in the future.

The staff At I Do Knot were very professional in getting to know us both as a couple. They were able to evaluate what we wanted and tailor our wedding to us as a couple. During the planning process, communication was clear and flexible. They have a great deal of knowledge of local vendors In getting the best product at the best price. We were thoroughly impressed with the organisation and hard work of the whole team In making our special day come to life.

We engaged I DO KNOT to help coordinate the day itself and offer guidance, advice and ad-hoc assistance through the wedding planning process. The team most certainly helped to alleviate some of the stress and ensured our day went smoothly. Some of our guests even commented on how the day "ran like clockwork". Anything we asked, the IDK team delivered on time and with a smile. Their attention to detail, flexibility and professionalism are just some of the things that make them stand out from the rest. Without hesitation, we would happily recommend their services. Big thanks again guys!!

We are a danish couple whom went to Malta to get married. We found Petra and I Do Knot online and they made our wedding even better than we had hoped for. Giving us ideas to the perfect venue they listend to our wishes and made usre everything was perfect. Petra even did her magic since I only 1½ half day before the wedding discovered that I had left the lace to the weddingdress in Denmark :O Any doubts or hesitations, Petra blew away. Our highest recommendations here from Denmark :)

Malta is a beautiful island steeped in history and memories for people from all walks of life and cultures. Helping to create those memories is a dedicated team from I DO KNOT - they are the most wonderful people you would wish to meet. They responded exactly to our requirements for our perfect wedding day - a small intimate ceremony (only the two of us). They listened to everything we wanted and implemented those wishes and made it a day to remember. We got all that we asked for and then we got some more. The warmth and happiness directed towards us for our special day actually started from the first email and when we met the I DO KNOT team and the Registrar on the day we landed in Malta they made us so at ease and welcomed - we felt as though we had known them for a lot longer. The extended team selected by I DO KNOT - make-up artist, hairdresser, photographer and chauffeur were all very professional, friendly and helpful. The florist also provided a bouquet with all the flowers requested in the style desired. The support from I DO KNOT continued throughout our stay on Malta and their interest in our family's response to the "surprise wedding" continued following our return to the UK (we had kept the wedding secret - the response from our family was overwhelming joy). We hope to continue our friendship with the I DO KNOT team by returning to Malta for more holidays and perhaps meeting up with them should they come to the UK also Their generosity will live with us always.

Petra, Mauro and Matthew and all of the team from I Do Knot gave us the most incredible day of our lives! We decided soon after getting engaged that we wanted to have a destination wedding. We had never been to Malta so we decided to contact a number of wedding planners in advance of our first trip. Petra and the team were by far the most responsive, enthusiastic and helpful of the planners we contacted. They asked us a couple of simple questions to get an idea of the type of wedding we had in mind and they put together an itinerary of truly incredible venues. As we went around each of them Petra seen which venues we liked and instantly thought of another venue, Limestone Heritage. We had seen pictures online and had thought the venue might be too big for our wedding party size but Petra knew best and scheduled a visit the next day. We couldn't have been happier when we seen the venue. From that point on we knew we wanted Petra and the team to organise our day. She took the time to get to know us, understand what type of day we wanted and helped keep two very laid back people (me and the husband!) on track throughout. Petra was never more than an email, text, skype away 7 days a week. The wedding day itself couldn't have gone better. The team were on hand from early morning in our hotel, coordinating transport and logistics for us and our 60 guests until early the next morning when the party drew to a close. Everyone at I Do Knot went above and beyond what we would have ever expected. Having met up with Petra and Mauro many times now in Malta and Dublin we can honestly say they are two of the most hard working, dedicated and nicest people you can meet. They were great to work with throughout the whole process and were more than just wedding planners, we have no doubt that we will be friends for many years to come! If anyone is considering getting married in Malta, we would have no hesitation in recommending the team at I Do Knot!

From start to finish I Do Knot provided an amazing service. They were accommodating, flexible, professional and most of all, creative. I had every faith in them that our wedding day would go to plan. The day completely exceeded mine and all of our guests expectations. I would recommend them to anyone thinking of getting married abroad.

Petra and Mauro go beyond the job description of wedding planners. They took care of absolutely every detail of the wedding and the holiday for us and our 49 guests. The details of our wedding day were planned over a period of months leading up to the wedding and we had regular contact with Petra and Mauro through email and Skype. They were always friendly and professional and it was clear to us that they had the expertise and creativity to put together the wedding we really wanted. We would encourage any future couple to trust Petra and Mauro completely as you will not be disappointed with what they can deliver. Our wedding at the Salt Pans in Gozo was like nothing we could have imagined. It really was the dream wedding for us. We were all blown away at how I Do Knot transformed the raw setting of the Salt Pans into a beautiful wedding venue. Every supplier that they used from chairs, flowers, caterers, musicians and lighting were very high quality and great value. On the wedding day, Petra and Mauro, along with wonderful Matthew, ensured it ran smoothly and took care of everything behind the scenes. We are absolutely thrilled to have had Petra and Mauro create our special day. They are both lovely people who could not have done any more for us during our time in Gozo. They also coordinated all the accommodation and transport for our guests as well as day trips and meals which took all the pressure off us. Thanks to them we were able to enjoy every minute of our time in Gozo. We cannot thank them enough for the experience they provided for us and our guests.

The Salt Pans in Gozo was the most amazing venue for a wedding. My niece and her fiancee were married there last week and to say I was bursting with pride was an understatement. I did not have any involvement with the wedding arrangements but I communicated with Petra regarding accommodation booking and she was always very helpful and informative. The attention to detail throughout the whole proceedings was amazing and both Petra and Mauro were around to ensure everything was running smoothly. Everyone involved in transporting the parties throughout their stay in Gozo, for the airport and ferry transfers and wedding day transport were polite, helpful and efficient.Matthew was excellent. The waiting staff at the wedding were also good and worked very hard on the day to ensure the drinks were flowing and the food was well presented. I cannot thank Petra and Mauro enough for their fantastic organisation and making this special day unforgettable. I would not hesitate to recommend their services and this venue in particular. It was very very special.

I DO KNOT are a very professional, organised and creative team. From concept and planning, through to operations and follow-ups, they were fantastic to work with and provided a good all-round service. They were also really friendly and fun.

It is hard to put into words how amazing our experience was with the I Do Knot Team. From our first exchange of emails we could feel Petra's passion for wedding planning. She is such a capable, inspired, warm and genuine person and I knew she had to be part of our big day. We both got to know her very quickly and she got to know us, to the point that she could offer me exactly what I wanted when I was unable to put it into clear words because she just "got" it. Having the expertise of the I Do Knot team to help us in all the planning made our life as bride and groom just so much easier. Nothing was ever an issue. We honestly felt that they were excited as we were. Which is a lovey warm feeling. On the day of our wedding we had 92 irish people travel to the amazing island of Gozo for one of the best days of our lives. As a bride, I was actually quite calm (much calmer than I had expected I would be) and I put that down to having the I Do Knot team by my side during all the preparations. Petra, Maura,Matthew & the rest of the team put in weeks and months of work to give my husband and I the most perfect day of our lives and they exceeded our expectations in every single way. They even surprised us with a spectacular fireworks display as the night kicked off. It was such a treat and caught us completely by surprise. I can honestly say that I am forever grateful for the service they have provided. We consider them our friends now and there is not one thing I would change about our day. Thank you I Do Knot. You are the best at what you do! Lots of love, Natasha Conneely

Dear Petra and Mauro, I just want to thank you and your team for such a fabulous occasion, the wedding of Natasha (our daughter) and Tomás. Words cannot describe the experience we all had. From our ease of transport from Malta airport to the beautiful Pergola farmhouses , through the pre wedding days, the amazing wedding day and beyond. Your professionalism and your constant support during our stay made our time in Gozo a time we will never forget. You gave Natasha ,Tomas, Liam, their family and friends a wedding that was superb in every way. You and your team, always friendly, helpful and with smiles looked after us from early in the day until the early hours of the morning. thanks to the chef for great food, BBQ and wedding meal, to the all musicians for beautiful music during the ceremony at the Salt Pans and back in the magical villa. What a day ! The fireworks were the cream on the cake. We thank you all again and wish you and your family and team health, happiness and life's blessings. With great fondness, Caroline and Martin Connaughton.x

A trip to Malta to my sisters wedding was made absolutely exceptional due to the care and attention of Petra and her team. The wedding was beautiful and everything went perfectly. The I do knot team went the extra mile to ensure that the bride and groom enjoyed every minute. Petra went above and beyond our expectations of a wedding planner. They made sure that the major aspects of the wedding went without a hitch but also found time to help with the minor tasks, e.g. carrying sleeping children, making sure everyone was on buses to airports etc. Everything was accompanied with a smile and a “don’t worry about it” attitude. A constant observation was the care and attention that Petra and her team took in helping and caring for each member of the wedding party and each guest. Their team effort, ability and care were extraordinary.

We have just returned from Malta where my new husband and I had an asbolutely perfect wedding day. I never thought I would have been able to celebrate my wedding day with such success and perfection... yet that was before I met Petra and her team. From the beginning, Petra ensured we were happy with every aspect of our wedding day, often thinking about aspects or elements we wouldn't have considered. Throughout the entire process, I was confident in Petra and her ability to organise our big day. All of our guests were in high praise of her ability to coordinate their stay in Malta too, which is an important aspect to any overseas wedding. I honestly look back at my wedding photos and can't believe that was OUR day!! We owe it all to Petra and her team. We cannot highly rate them enough. They have been a huge part of our lives throughout the last year as we planned our big day and we hope they will still be part of our lives in the future too! If you have found or are looking for the perfect venue in Malta, I believe I Do Knot will achieve your dream day too!

We travelled to Ronan and Genevieves Wedding as a party of 6 comprising of 2 adults and 4 children aged 7,6,4 and 2. My wife Charlotte is Genevieves sister and was a bridesmaid and my son and 3 daughters were page boy and flower girls. Petra was extremely helpful in organising every last detail for us. She dealt with the hotel and when the hotel couldn't gaurantee us rooms together ( which was an absolute necessity with our children ) arranged for us to get a suite comprising of 2 rooms. She arranged for all our transfers too and from the airport and to and from the wedding venue and personally made sure we were all on the bus. She arranged for child car seats for our kids on the buses when we asked as it became apparent that child car seats are not standard on buses in Malta. When our three youngest kids fell asleep at the wedding venue she (unprompted) organised for chairs to be brought so that they could sleep comfortably and then enlisted her husband and another helper to help me carry the 3 sleeping children to the bus at 12.00am (for which we have lovely photos.) All in all I couldn't find a single fault with her service and would recommend her highly.

Petra & her team provided an exceptional professional service throughout my stay in Malta. The wedding ceremony & reception were spectacular, all overseen by Petra throughout. One recommendation I would like to make is that consideration be given to abolishing the single supplement for single guests. Thank you for making my stay in Malta extra special.

As a guest attending a wedding in Malta, I found Petra and her team extremely helpful, friendly and professional. Our whole trip ran so smoothly thanks to all their planning and hard work. It was greatly appreciated and the wedding was absolutely breathtaking.

Service excellent. Friendly relaxing unobtrusive. Maybe wedding speeches not to start until after the main course is served. Guests hungry after Ceremony and Reception and when seated for Wedding meal are anxious to begin eating and would be in better humour for listening to speeches after some food . This would be my only suggestion to improve the occasion.

Petra, Mauro and the team are worth their weight in gold! They were extremely diligent throughout the process of organising our wedding and struck the balance between professionalism and friendliness perfectly. They have a contacts book to die for and we were very happy with all the suppliers they used. It's no wonder they have won so many accolades for their destination wedding organisation.

Thank you so much to Petra and Mauro. We planned our wedding at short notice to coincide with our holidays in Gozo and Petra was magnificent, within the tightest time frame she helped us to organise the paper work and put together exactly what we were looking for. I think we're so lucky to have met Petra, she really is fantastic at her job. Again, the biggest thank you.

Who Doesn't want peace of mind on their Wedding Day!! That's why we highly recommend I Do Knot services to anyone who needs help in organizing their wedding. We have been provided with several venues and suppliers with reasonable prices to choose from. Both Petra and Matthew are very organized and did the job in a very Professional and efficient way, and on top of that they were very friendly and supportive through out the whole Wedding Planning. All was carefully Planned. Thanks for helping us having the Perfect Wedding Day.

I can honestly say we had no idea what to expect when we booked flights to go to Sharon and Stephens wedding in Malta and even if I had, it would have exceeded every expectation. From the top secret details until the evening before the wedding to the beautiful relaxed ceremony and speed boats transporting us to the best wedding meal I have ever had, every single detail was covered in perfect style. Easily the best wedding I have ever been too. Petra, Mauro and all at I DO KNOT - you are amazing at what you do. And a big thanks to Sharon and Stephen to inviting us to be a part of the awesome day

I spend my summer interring for Petra and Mauro at I DO KNOT and it was the most incredible experience! I got to learn so much from them. They inspired me and made me love wedding planning more and more every day! Everything in the company is done by a certain standard and only the best is offered to their clients. The exceptional quality of their services and their love and passion for making people's dreams come true work together to make sure every single guest receives the best! I was incredibly lucky to have had the honor of being a part of the little family of I DO KNOT and I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking into getting married in Malta. After all, everyone needs the Best for their special day and Petra and Mauro offer nothing less!

When we got engaged in November 2014 we couldn’t decide whether to go for a simple wedding at home or to go away and avoid the usual traditions that didn’t really excite us. We had looked into a few locations briefly and the first thing we noticed was that when we left our details with the staff at exhibition stands we didn’t hear from them again. We had thought perhaps that a destination wedding would become a hassle and we were back to square one. Then we met Petra and Mauro. From the first conversation they were professional, competent and most of all – crazy about Malta! I left my contact details with Petra late on a Saturday afternoon and she promised to send me information the following day – which she did. I have to say that throughout the ongoing process of arranging the wedding with many emails and skype calls, Petra didn’t fail to miss a deadline. Long story short, we went out for a visit in April with some friends for 4 days and packed in 4 possible venues and a lot of site-seeing. We couldn’t decide between two of the venues so decided to ask if it would be possible to include both! The response from Petra and Mauro – but of course! We cannot speak highly enough about the commitment and hard work from these guys, every single detail was thought of and they handled it all with an air of ‘I’ve got this’! We were looking for a fun and relaxed day - not–a typical formal wedding, this seemed to really inspire their creativity and they presented many ideas for us that we could include. The day itself was filled with lots of fun, speedboats, fire juggling and fireworks. The décor was relaxed – no chairs for the guests at the ceremony, rather we had lots of coloured cushions and a big tent that was previously used in a movie set. We weren’t going for elaborate, we were going for fun and laid back, and this is exactly what we got. Petra and Mauro love what they do and that is obvious in how excited they were for any ideas that were agreed upon. We ourselves actually got to enjoy the day as much as the guests did, many times when we have been to weddings the bride and groom look tired and worried if everyone has been talked to. Going to Malta gave us the time to spend with family and friends throughout the week, it allowed them to break the ice with one another and it meant the wedding day was as we say in Northern Ireland ‘great craic’! Our wedding was far from traditional but we didn’t feel like weirdos either – we got to get married in the most beautiful setting with our nearest and dearest and felt like everything was totally in control. We should mention that operationally it would have been quite a challenge due to the two venues being on separate islands, thanks to the hard work from Petra and Mauro however, the day seemed totally seamless. I Do Knot totally exceeded our expectations in every way, they even came to the airport to see the guests off when they were leaving, a personal touch that they weren’t obliged to do but it meant a lot to us that they did. If we could offer any advice to anyone considering a destination wedding – definitely consider Malta, we have visited some beautiful countries over the years and Malta has so much to offer. Any reservations that we would have considered at the beginning regarding the intricacies of a foreign wedding needn’t have been an issue, they understand the laws and there was no barrier regarding how they comprehended exactly what we were looking for – thank you so much Petra and Mauro for giving us the most beautiful day! Stephen & Sharon

Loved every minute of this Wedding. Very well organised. Would recommend to anyone.

As guests at Tom and Pat's Ruby Wedding celebrations we cannot praise Petra and Mauro enough. It was an honour to be part of such a superbly organised event. Their skills were clear to see but more importantly their ability to make everyone feel so welcome. We are sure that I Do Knot will be very busy next year and for many years to come

Excellent. Nothing but Praise for Petra,Mauro and all the team at I DO KNOT. We celebrated our ruby wedding anniversary in Malta and I DO KNOT arranged everything for us and our 18 guests from Ireland and England. Such hard work and professionalism provided us with a unique 're proposal event' full church service, hotel, entertainment events etc etc. The I DO KNOT team were there for us,for all the whole 2 weeks and made it such a wonderful event that will never be forgot by the whole party. Feel free to ask them for more details of our functions they provided and you will see exactly how good they are and what such nice people they are and clearly a credit to the people of Malta. They deserve the awards they have achieved so far and Im sure there will be many more. Tom Hampton

Every detail from start to finish was perfect. Petra couldn't have done anymore to make this day more special.During our time in Malta Petra was seen as more than a wedding planner, she was a well trusted friend that we all relied on and she delivered above and beyond. Thank you again Petra.

Petra is absolutely amazing. She managed everything I needed and was always on time and professional. She is as sweet as can be and I am so happy that she was involved in my wedding. It gave me a sense of calmness to know she was there!

I would recommend Petras and her "I Do Knot" team to everyone! As getting married in Malta was a really last minute decision, Petra was super fast in providing us with best options and deals! I reached out to few companies, but Petra was outstanding and stood out right away! Could not be more thankful. And this comes from a wedding planner herself. I I trusted our day to her, anyone can!

I cannot recommend Petra Gasan and her I Do Knot team highly enough! Petra planned the perfect fairytale wedding for us in Malta last month. We are so happy we had Petra as our wedding planner, from start to finish she was there, answering every question promptly, taking in our vision of our wedding and our ideas and coming up with great suggestions and ideas herself. Petra suggested the perfect church and reception for our big day, and organised every detail of our wedding faultlessly. Our guests were so impressed with Petra and her team on the day of our wedding, as were we, as she co ordinated everything without a hitch. It was a relaxing and stress free day as Petra and her team dealt with everything and left us with nothing to worry about. We are delighted with our wedding and have great memories of our special day to look back upon thanks to Petra, we could not have done it without her ! :-)
