Why should I hire a wedding planner for my destination wedding in Portugal?

When hosting a destination wedding, we highly recommend that you hire wedding planners, as each country has their own rules and specificities. Particularly concerning our wedding venues, which are historical places.

Through experience, Wedding Venues Portugal gain knowledge when it comes to their local vendors and suppliers, and therefore they know best whom to choose, to ensure that you only receive the best service at the best price.

The Venue has a coordinator; do I need a wedding planner?

The venue coordinator ensures that the venue itself is working and that anything that has to do with the venue is fixed. However the wedding planner not only communicates with the venue coordinator to ensure that all is working, they also ensure that your wedding in Portugal is running smoothly.

The Cocktail hour took place around the fountain in the joy of their family and Guests. Drinks and finger food was served while the string quartet was playing.

Guests had opportunity to sneak around, while Kelly and Kar were taking photos in the gardens. The Monserrate Palace offers endless photo opportunities, so many beautiful details to capture.

The Cocktail hour is over, the photo session fineshed is time to move forward. The beautiful Music Room, the pianist and the food are all ready!

The wedding favors were the portuguese Pasteis de Nata (custard cakes). The Pasteis de Nata are typical from Portugal and they are made of puff pastry and custard cream.

The wedding cake, the dance and the open bar were celebrated in the Tea House (few steps from the main Palace) as dancing is not allowed in the main Palace.
