Welcome to Portugal!! This will be a rooftop gathering with views of the ocean and a lighthouse. There will be light bites and an open bar from 3p-5p (wine, beer) along with a couple of special speeches. This happy hour will serve as a gathering to welcome everyone to beautiful Carvoeiro and to get excited for the celebrations ahead! Shuttle will be provided back to Tivoli (which is close to our next HH stop) https://thelighthousegrillandbar.com
5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Happy hour stop #2! This is optional, but we will keep the happy hour going at this beautiful cliffside bar location with crashing waves against limestone cliffs. Kalli's dad's favorite stop in this area! There is no official website but you can find it on IG or FB (Yelp here) https://www.yelp.com/biz/o-stop-carvoeiro The ideas is to then separate for dinner with groups of friends of your choosing, downtown Carvoeiro (or location of choice) before the big day tomorrow! Here are some restaurant recommendations: https://www.totheseastories.com/post/best-restaurants-carvoeiro
1:15 pm - 11:00 pm
Meet at Azur Bar at 1:15pm. Ceremony starts at 2:00pm promptly. Dress Code: think elevated cliffside formal, coastal chic. We want people to have an excuse to wear something colorful, fun, UNIQUE (avoiding whites/blacks) while looking classic & polished. Life is short, let’s have fun get that pastel or linnen suit you've been eyeing!
