The Wedding Website of Sid Howard and Rhiannon Nitsos
We braved a scouting mission in May of 2025, battling sunshine and bottle after bottle of vinho verde to get our bearings in Ericeira - here's what we learned:

Travel Note

Lay of the Land

Our wedding is 45 minutes outside Lisbon, which is where we recommend flying into! Our venue is in Santo Isodoro, a small town perched on a hill just northeast of Ericeira. Theres a small market and two breakfast/lunch spots at the main roundabout and its only a 5 minute drive to park in the northern lots of Ericeria. You can walk 15-20 minutes down to Praia de Ribeira d'Ilhas, the main surfing beach, but walking to town would be a trek.

Rental Car

Auto Europe

This is like European Priceline - We recommend using them to find the best deal and booking here might get you a discount - you probably don't need their 3rd party insurance. Lisbon Airport is probably the most convenient pick-up/drop off location. We do NOT recommend driving around the city! Get your car on your way to Ericeira.

Rental Car

Guerin Lisboa - Aeroporto

Lisboa, Lisboa 1700-008, Portugal
 

We had a good experience with Guerin - affordable and hassle free - I recommend a manual transmission for a more authentic experience... if you're up for it

Travel Note

WhatsApp

We'd recommend downloading WhatsApp before the trip, as it's commonly used in Portugal and will be the easiest way to communicate with us, other guests, hotels, drivers and vendors while abroad.

Shuttle

Wavy Bus

June 26, 2027 10:30 am - 11:45 am

We haven't tried this but could be a good option if you aren't opting for a car. Currently runs one trip a day each way: 10:30a Ericeira to Lisbon 11:45a Lisbon to Ericeria

House Or Rental

Terra Lodge

18 Calçada do Cravo, Santo Isidoro, Lisboa 2640-086, Portugal
 

This could be a cool spot near the venue to book with friends!
