shuttles will be provided for welcome party and wedding day

Yes, there is a large parking area! Feel free to rent a car if you wish.

Address: Quinta da Conceição , Rua Quinta dos Canais, Canais, 2925-677

We plan for the celebration to finish around 4 AM, but we’ll enjoy the night without watching the clock.

Elegant summer formal: dark suit or dress trousers, crisp white shirt, and tie. Jackets are optional to keep you comfortable in the Portuguese heat.

Ladies bring the color and prints! Floor length gowns or elegant cocktail dresses. 

The venue has grass and cobblestones, so leave the stilettos at home — wide heels or wedges are perfect for dancing under the stars.

Yes, our wedding will be outdoors if the weather allows. Bring a jacket! :)

The venue is under an hour from city center in Lisbon & about 20-30 minutes from Sesimbra

During the Day taxis and Ubers are available.

Our celebration will begin with a Welcome Party on Tuesday, September 7, 2027

Yes! Tap water in Portugal is safe to drink, so bring your favorite refillable water bottle and stay hydrated while you're exploring.

Yes! Credit cards are widely accepted throughout Portugal, especially at hotels, restaurants and larger shops. Visa and Mastercard are the most widely accepted.  American Express is not as commonly accepted, so we recommend bringing a Visa or Mastercard as a backup.

Portugal uses the Euro (€), and ATMs are readily available. When withdrawing cash, we recommend looking for an ATM marked “MB” (Multibanco).  Multibanco is Portugal's national ATM network and is generally the best option for accessing cash while traveling. As always, check with your bank before traveling to understand any foreign transaction or ATM fees.

Most U.S. cell phones will work in Portugal, but international coverage and costs vary by carrier and plan. We recommend checking with your cell phone provider before traveling to see what international options are available to you. There are also Apps where you can download an ESIM, I’ve personally used Nomad and it worked great while being very cost efficient! You can find it in your app store & follow the directions to download the ESIM to your phone :)

A quick tip: Download WhatsApp!
WhatsApp is very popular in Portugal and throughout Europe and is a great way to stay connected while traveling. We may also use WhatsApp to share wedding-weekend updates and important information as we get closer to the celebration. It works over Wi-Fi or mobile data, so be sure to download the app before you leave home.

September can still be sunny and warm in Portugal!

Uber is readily available from the airport to our wedding venue and the nearby villages. (visit the travel section of this site for more details and updates)

If you plan to explore the country side and other part of Portugal, renting a car is easy and they drive on the "right" site of the road (like America)!

Trains are super easy from Lisbon to Cascais, Sintra:Link  Trains to Porto and Algarve.  (recommended site for trains to Porto & Algarve: LInk

Other than your wedding attire — which will be outlined on the official invitation, our #1 packing recommendation is a really good pair of walking shoes!  If you're planning to explore Lisbon or Porto, comfortable sneakers or walking shoes with good support and plenty of tread are a must. Both cities are incredibly walkable, but you'll encounter plenty of cobblestone and stone-paved streets, uneven sidewalks and hills, sometimes with a surprisingly steep climb. We learned this firsthand — looking cute is great, but your feet will thank you for choosing comfort!

We also recommend packing:

• Lightweight, comfortable clothing for warm days

• A light wrap for cooler evenings

• Sunglasses and sunscreen

• A hat for sunny days

• Comfortable shoes for exploring

• A swimsuit if you're planning to enjoy the pool or beach

• A small crossbody or secure bag for sightseeing

• Water bottle!

And one more tip: Leave a little room in your suitcase. Between the ceramics, cork, food, wine and other Portuguese treasures, you may find a few things you want to bring home!
