wedding in portugal...

Sorry, I'm of no help with your question but just wanted to say welcome to hitched x

Hi Ashley congrats on your wedding plans i’m also organizing my wedding in portugal, firstly we wanted to do it ourselves but as we are very busy at work have decided for a wedding planner, our hearts were set around the eastern part of the Algarve the Tavira area but now have moved on to Alvor. We have contacted a few wedding planners and finally booked Rebecca http://www.algarveweddingsbyrebecca.com/ as we fell she understood our wishes better. Our wedding is a mixed one my boyfriend is brazilian I know it wud be difficult or almost impossible to get his whole family and friends all the way from Brazil so only a few will be flying from Brazil to attend the wedding like his close family and a couple of good friends therefore we’re expecting a small group only. As music is of such importance to us we booked double cocktail they are the band that performs most of the abroad weddings according to the revues online, I know they will be able to cater for our English/irish/brazilian guests.

What kind of venue are you looking at? Let me know if you need any help or Rebecca’s contact and I’ll gladly forward it to you. best of luck with the planning x

Ahh hello bekkijane thank you xx

Hi Kimmiechap, thank you and to you too! We are also hoping to use Rebecca as the same as you she has come across to be really friendly and nothing Is a problem! Were looking at a villa wedding, around villamoura. Not sure on guest numbers etc yet just want to find our ideal wedding venue first and then we shall go from there. Have you discussed the marriage licence yet? about having to be in the country a few days before the wedding??

Thank you for contacting me lovely to know someone else has chosen Portugal and Rebecca xx

Hi Ashley sorry for the late reply Rebecca has shown me a few gorgeous villas in Villamoura unfortunately they were a bit too big for our group. Best to know how many guest you are expecting before booking a venue imagine you book a big villa expecting a large group and only half shows up then would be better a restaurant maybe or a smaller villa.

I’m sorry I cant be of help on the abroad legal side of things we are only having a blessing no need for a marriage license doing the legal bit at home before the wedding. we will be signing a make believe register for the pics and for our guests like the real thing no one needs to know we will be already legally married before that. Ask Rebecca about the license I'm pretty sure she will be able to help you on that.

Let me know if you need any extra help or advise on suppliers as we have contacted a few ones online before making any definite decisions.

Happy planning ?

HI Rhisheds I got married in Portugal and I'm portuguese. I'm not sure how to solve your problem, but if there is anything you need translated please do let me know. Happy to help

Samwillow There are so many villas all around Portugal that you can hire out for weddings, then there are the amazing castles throughout as well as many old heritage buildings, the food is usually good and the weather is guaranteed. We got married in Portugal 8 years ago. Would do it all over again.

Hi ashley, welcome to the group
