We answer ALL your questions about Destination Weddings in Portugal!

Are you starting to think about your destination wedding in Portugal? We’re sure many questions are running through your mind right now!

For us, it is not the first time that we are backstage at a destination wedding in Portugal and we know exactly the doubts you must have and the answers to them!
That’s why today we leave you a little cheat sheet to help you with some of the questions you may have!

WHAT SHOULD BE THE FIRST STEP?

If you live abroad, the most important first step, we know it’s already obvious to you: is to hire the help of a wedding planning team! After that, the first issue to deal with is, without a doubt, arranging the venue for your destination wedding. Only starting from here, and with a defined date, can the other suppliers be contracted, so that they can confirm their availability! This is one of the decisions that you should consider the most, as the venue must meet all your requirements, but with our help we guarantee that it will be a sure shot!

WHERE IN PORTUGAL SHOULD YOU CELEBRATE YOUR DESTINATION WEDDING?

We know that this is a difficult choice because our country is fascinating from North to South! If you are looking for something more urban, but with the luxury of a 5-star hotel, Porto and Lisbon are the options for you. If you like nature and a more rustic style, you will love discovering the Douro Valley. On the other hand, if you imagine your destination wedding next to the beach, you have to explore the idyllic beaches of the Algarve!

WHAT ABOUT LEGAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GETTING MARRIED IN PORTUGAL?

Getting legally married in Portugal involves navigating through certain requirements and paperwork, but don’t worry, we’re here to make it as smooth as possible for you. We’ll provide you with a comprehensive guide to the legalities involved, including obtaining the necessary documentation, such as marriage licenses and certificates. Our experienced team will assist you every step of the way, ensuring that all legal aspects are taken care of seamlessly, allowing you to focus on enjoying your special day.

HOW DO WE HANDLE ACCOMODATION FOR OUR GUESTS?

Ensuring that your guests have comfortable and convenient accommodations is essential for a successful destination wedding. Leave this task to us! We’ll work closely with you to understand your guests’ preferences and budgetary considerations. Whether it’s luxury hotels, charming guesthouses, or cozy vacation rentals, we’ll curate a selection of accommodations that meet everyone’s needs. From booking room blocks to coordinating reservations, we’ll take care of all the details, ensuring that your guests have a memorable and enjoyable stay during your wedding festivities.

BUT WHAT IF IT RAINS?

 Although we still cannot control the weather, we can assure you that even with rain or wind, your Destination Wedding in Portugal will not fail to be a success! That’s why it’s important to define an indoor plan B in advance with which you’ll feel equally happy and everyone will still have fun!

ARE THERE ANY LOCAL CUSTOMS OR TRADITIONS WE SHOULD INCORPORATE INTO OUR WEDDING?

Incorporating local customs and traditions into your wedding can add a unique and meaningful touch to your celebration. Portugal boasts a rich cultural heritage, and there are plenty of customs and traditions that you can incorporate into your special day. From incorporating traditional Portuguese music and dance performances to serving local delicacies and wines, we’ll help you infuse your wedding with the essence of Portuguese culture. Our team will work closely with you to understand your preferences and vision, ensuring that your wedding reflects your personal style while honoring the beautiful traditions of Portugal.
