In 1989, a young carpenter with a vision set out to create a unique wedding venue on the south coast of Malta, overlooking the Natura 2000 site of Wied Babu in Żurrieq.

Inspired by the beauty of the surroundings, Joe Baldacchino named it the "Garden of Eden'...

Joe crafted a spacious, open-plan venue from wood, featuring expansive glass doors and windows that invite natural light and stunning views indoors, creating an unforgettable setting. As Malta’s wedding market thrived in the late 1980s, this harmonious blend of craftsmanship and nature quickly became renowned as the perfect venue for intimate weddings.

Over the years, Eden Lodge, as it was later renamed, has evolved through modern refurbishments, yet the original wooden architecture remains a defining characteristic. The venue now offers the ideal combination of contemporary practicality and traditional garden charm, making it perfect for intimate weddings and civil ceremonies. Whether hosting indoors or outdoors, the mature garden and terrace provide a stunning backdrop for summer garden weddings, while the venue’s versatility ensures a beautiful experience all year round.
