If you are planning a luxury destination wedding in Portugal, Ana and Inês are the planners you want by your side. My husband and I live in the United States, but we were both born in Venezuela and my parents are Portuguese, which is why Portugal was such a meaningful place for us to get married. With guests traveling from all over the world, planning a multicultural destination wedding could have been overwhelming, but they made the entire experience seamless. Ana and Inês are incredibly organized, responsive, and thoughtful. From the early planning stages through the wedding day, they handled every detail with professionalism and care. Their experience as wedding planners in Portugal was invaluable, and they made the entire process feel easy and enjoyable despite the distance. Our wedding weekend was flawless, and we were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment thanks to their hard work behind the scenes. Beyond their talent and expertise, they are also warm, kind, and truly wonderful people to work with. We are forever grateful to them for helping us create such a beautiful and unforgettable celebration in Portugal. If you’re planning a wedding there, I highly recommend them — you can also see their incredible work on Instagram @weddingplannerinportugal.Posted on Rúben GomesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Queremos deixar um agradecimento especial a toda a equipa pelo trabalho incrível que fizeram desde o primeiro dia até ao final do nosso grande momento. A vossa excelência, dedicação e profissionalismo foram visíveis em cada detalhe, e sentimos sempre que podíamos contar convosco para tudo. Todos os nossos convidados ficaram encantados com a organização, e nós não podíamos estar mais felizes com o resultado. Um agradecimento muito especial também pela ajuda na mudança do vestido — foram incansáveis, atenciosas e fizeram-nos sentir sempre acompanhados e tranquilos. Obrigada por tornarem o nosso dia ainda mais bonito, mais leve e verdadeiramente inesquecível. ❤Posted on Eric CasinelliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wedding Planner in Portugal was truly the best wedding planner we could ever ask for. Coming from abroad, we put a ton of trust into our wedding planners, and they exceeded expectations in EVERY way! Our 70 person wedding at Forte de Cruz was unbelievably stunning, from the stunning flower arrangements everywhere to the magical golden-hour cocktails on the parapets. We used every part of the venue, and it made it feel like every phase of our wedding had a new, stunning setting. We wanted a fun, colorful, and dancing-filled wedding, and WPIP took that mission and ran with it! Any request, no matter how crazy, they made it WORK. Hanging wicker lamps, creative suggestions on party favors, even helping the bride with her bustle on the day of the wedding. We had people we didn't even know reach out to our friends/family and say "Wow that looks like truly the most fun/beautiful wedding I have ever seen!" Inês was incredibly accommodating, as well as easy and so much fun to work with! She brought a relaxed yet always well-prepared energy to our regular meetings. All of the other wedding planners that we met with while we shopped around didnt even compare - the kind and fun energy they bring to the table is palpable from the moment you meet them. The companies that they work with (i.e. DJ/MC, venue staff, and photographers) brought the same professional/accomodating, yet vibrant and fun-loving energy to the day of the wedding. (Highly suggest booking their car service as well, both on the day of the wedding and the rest of the trip... the drivers were an ABSOLUTE highlight.) We received so many compliments about how awesome the staff was - which is a very random compliment in the grand scheme of a wedding so you know they meant it! We could not have been more impressed with how well they handled our wedding, and we are eternally grateful to their hard work and energy to make it our best day ever. My wife and I now try to convince people to get married in the same place, just so they can have a fairytale venue, and more importantly, work with such amazing people who will meet their every need for their special day! Thanks so much Inês and WPIP!!Posted on Justin Alejandro LladocTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Easily the most beautiful day of our lives - Ines from Wedding Planner in Portugal truly delivered to our expectation. Procuring the services of Wedding Planner in Portugal, you will experience the following: Their most stellar qualities: 1. An organized approach, especially overseas clients like us, who are currently based in Singapore and Norway. Through organized platforms such as Google Shared Drive and Whatsapp Groups, as well regular connects with Ines, you will have a handle on the details of your special day. 2. Great value. The base price for the packaged wedding is competitively set, with a heartfelt and premium experience for you and your guests. My advice is to be watchful for the additions, as they can add up and not necessarily add to the experience. But after our wedding and all euro's add up, we believe it's fantastic value. 3. Competent and Strong Roster of Suppliers. For us, this is the greatest value-add of Wedding Planner in Portugal in that they connected us to a strong set of photographer, videographer, venue (+caterer for the food & drinks), limousine + limousine driver and musician. More than competence, they treated us with so much warmth and humanity. Rave reviews from our guests on the food, drinks and music at our wedding. We are excited to see our official photography and videography, which will come out in the next weeks/months. 4. On the day of our wedding, Ines - our wedding planner - was professional, courteous and polite to our guests. She truly let us relish every second by taking care of everything and not intruding unnecessarily in our special moments. Thank you very much @Ines for your professionalism. Opportunity Areas - Wedding Planner in Portugal can improve in the following areas: 1. As we conducted a 6-hour wedding reception, it could have been amazing, especially given her extensive experience, if Ines gave us more ideas on: a) Program during the lunch. We settled with putting together our own speeches, as well as giving the floor to selected guests. It worked out eventually, but it would have been better if we had more options to select from. b) Maximizing the value of Tagide Restaurant: Ideas to make the event more memorable that are within the scope of Tagide Restaurant (venue + food/drinks) would have been most welcome to come from Ines. For example, the wine fountain on the day itself, or using the bar below at one point in our Programme as the whole restaurant was closed. 2. Responsiveness can be improved. However, we understand Wedding Planner in Portugal manages multiple clients. When it mattered and as the event was approaching, Ines was extremely responsive. All in all, we recommend Wedding Planner in Portugal. We highly appreciate your expertise and services! You gave us the wedding of our dreams.

When we decided to do a destination wedding in Portugal and bring 100 guests from across the United States to celebrate, we knew we needed a local expert planner. I am an event planner myself, and knew I would be picky. We interviewed several wedding planners, and it was clear from the very start that Ana was the most informed, well-connected, and respected. We felt confident immediately in partnering with her. When we told her we were interested in Casa dos Penedos, she had the Penha Longa team on speed dial ready to get availability and pricing. We requested transportation vendors; and her brother’s shuttle company made for another seamless coordination. When we needed help with a few stationary items for day-of, she had an in-house designer on top of it. Too many examples of this to type here! Ana’s ability to understand and execute on our vision, priorities, and taste made the process so enjoyable. Throughout the wedding planning process, she went above and beyond to help advise us not just on the venue decisions - but also the hotels, restaurants, rehearsal meals, and much more. She was always eager to help via whatsapp and video chats, while keeping an organized wedding book that we could collaborate on. We had an incredible wedding week so many with our loved ones told us it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. As a bride and groom, we felt no worries or stress day-of, all thanks to her! If you’re looking to get married in Portugal, Ana de Lima is the best of the best! Always happy to be a reference for her! Alyssa & Elijah (August 18, 2025)Posted on Mark KrasnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. There are no words worthy enough to describe the magic, beauty, and bliss Ana created for our wedding. My husband and I are still left speechless, filled to the brim with joy, feeling incredibly blessed to have worked with the angel that is Ana. From our very first call with Ana we knew we were in good hands. Planning a wedding in Portugal from across the ocean in Miami was no easy feat, particularly due to the specificity of experience we wanted to cultivate for our guests, but Ana filled our journey with laughs, incredibly tasteful recommendations and guidance, and a grace that truly makes her a master of her craft. Our wedding weekend included two events, each of which accommodating 46 guests - a welcome dinner and party at La Distillerie in Lisbon, and our wedding ceremony, dinner, and party at the iconic Forte Da Cruz. We also wanted a variety of entertainment, cuisine, flowers, decor, and cocktails for both events. Ana BLEW US AWAY with the experience she beautifully manifested for both events! Not only were all of her selections incredibly tasteful, but exceeded our expectations altogether. Just as importantly, all of the musicians, florists, videographers, and other vendors Ana recommended are simply incredible humans, and showered us with their warmth, kindness, and patience throughout the weekend. Ana - you truly are a magician. Thank you for making our weekend even more special than we could have thought possible. From our hearts to yours, levar-te-emos para sempre no coração. Obrigado por tornares o impossível possível ❤️Posted on Megan Skye HunterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ana and her team gave us the most beautiful fairytale elopement I could have ever imagined. It was so easy to choose the location that suited us best from her vast collection of venues. I had a vision in my head of what our day would look like and the reality surpassed anything I dreamed of!Posted on Lindsay HenningfeldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Wedding planner in Portugal! Planning a destination wedding in a country we’d never visited felt daunting at first, but Ana and her team made the entire process a breeze. From the start, she was responsive, organized, and always prepared with options that matched our vision perfectly. Her network of venues was fantastic; it was easy to find options that felt like they were handpicked for us. Ana’s calm and reassuring demeanor was a true gift, keeping my emotions in check, even during the more stressful moments. Whenever I had questions, she was quick to respond with creative solutions and helpful insights. Her vendor network was outstanding; every person we worked with was professional, kind, and contributed to making our day unforgettable. The entire wedding weekend was curated to perfection and far surpassed anything we’d ever dreamed of. Many of our guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding they’d ever attended, and the whole event felt like something out of a fairy tale. For anyone considering a destination wedding, I highly recommend Wedding planner in Portugal. Her dedication, expertise, and exceptional value make her an absolute standout – she truly made all the difference!Posted on Laura MannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Me and my husband have just had our wedding at Forte da Cruz on the 3rd of October and wow what a wedding, it could not of happened without Ana and her team! From the initial meeting, everything went smoothly and Ana was always available on Whatsapp or a call when you had additional questions which made planning from the UK a breeze. What I loved is that on the actual day you don't need to worry about a thing and you can let Ana and team take care of everything so you can make the most of the day and enjoy yourself! It's even the little touches like Ana personally delivering your bouquet to your hotel the morning of the wedding! Thank you so much for helping with my dream wedding, I would highly recommend! xPosted on Mike MongeauTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommended! We are from Canada and hired Ana de Lima for our elopement in Lisbon. She took care of everything; we had a fantastic English speaking wedding officiant, Marta. Our venue was an incredible restaurant with amazing food and a beautiful view of Lisbon. Anna Nunes photography was excellent. We received our photos in less than a month and very happy with them. Wedding cake was brought in and some gorgeous flower arrangements my wife was very happy with. We had an amazing day, and all we had to do was show up! No stress. Thank You Ana de Lima for making our day amazing! Again, I highly recommend using Wedding Planner in Portugal, you won't be dissapointed.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
