When should we arrive to Porto?

Answer

While our first event isn’t until June 9, we highly recommend arriving no later than June 8. This will give you time to settle in and avoid any last-minute travel hiccups. Been there, done that—and we’d miss you too much if travel delays kept you away!

Question

What should we expect for the kids on the day and night of the wedding?

Answer

Our nieces and nephews are so special to us, and we want them to enjoy the day just as much as the adults. We’ll have a babysitter to ensure everyone can relax and feel at ease. The kids will be invited and encouraged to play and have fun! We know they won’t want to sit at the dinner table for hours on end—and we wouldn’t expect them to. We’re aiming for a balance: a relaxing environment for the adults and a playful one for the kids.

Question

What should we expect from the reception?

Answer

Look forward to a curated dinner, delicious wine, dessert, music, and tons of fun!
