Real Life Weddings Carmel D’Arcy & Steven Jenkins Wedding on the 1st of September 2013
“When Steve and I met in 2003, I knew that, not only would he become my best friend but that one day we would be married. Several years later, when he popped the question on a wintery night in London my mind immediately raced to where we would celebrate our big day…

e had always planned on getting married abroad but, with a young son and a 60 strong group of friends and family joining us for the ride, we were conscious it was a big decision to make. Our prayers were answered when a friend suggested Malta. Just a 3 hour flight from London, it offered the kind of Mediterranean Charm that seemed too good to be true. On our first visit we were blown away by the picturesque coastline and stunning views. There was no question it was both a perfect destination to holiday and to celebrate our wedding. Although we had settled on a destination, the prospect of arranging a wedding aboard was still daunting. Fortunately we found Sarah Young a wedding planner based in Malta. To say that her and her team were phenomenal is an understatement. From the first meeting I knew that we were in extremely professional hands. Sarah managed every aspect of the wedding in incredible detail and at a speed which was second to none!! We were blessed with a stunning choice of venues, menus, suppliers and more. Any fears I had about organising

a wedding abroad were quickly relayed by Sarah’s involvement. The wedding day was everything we could have wished for and more. The personal touch of Sarah, her assistant and her team meant that it went to perfection and that made for a very relaxed bride!! The ceremony in the garden was beautiful and so romantic, the dinner set up in the ballroom was breath taking and to top it up we then partied the night away enjoying the wedding to the full. Friends and family congratulated us on such a spectacular venue and flawless day. It really was a day we’ll never forget!!”
