Welcome Happy Hour
3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Clube Golf Mar, Centro Comercial, Lj., Carvoeiro, Faro 8400-550, Portugal
Dress code: Cocktail Casual. Think: a less formal version of the wedding dress code. Men may wear shorts, with button downs or a nicer polo/collared shirt. For women, feel free to wear skirts, dresses, a two piece set, whatever puts you in the party mood!
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! https://thelighthousegrillandbar.com
Happy Hour #2
6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Cocktail casual
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!

Wedding Ceremony, Reception, Celebration
1:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Carvoeiro, Portugal
Dress Code: think elevated cliffside formal, coastal chic. The White Lotus. We want people to have an excuse to wear something colorful, fun, UNIQUE (avoiding whites/blacks or super dark colors) while looking classic & polished. Life is short, let’s have fun get that pastel or linnen suit you've been eyeing! Please take a look at our Pinterest mood board here for inspiration: https://www.pinterest.com/kalliveldman/k-+-n-wedding-mood-board-carvoeiro-portugal/
