What does wedding planning with Event Boutique include?

Event Boutique's wedding planning service begins with a deep discovery conversation about your vision, values, and aesthetic. We then develop a comprehensive strategy covering timeline, venue and location options, guest experience flow, vendor curation (photographers, caterers, florists, musicians), accommodation coordination, budget allocation, and logistics planning. Our planning approach is architectural and intentional—every decision is made to serve your overall vision rather than follow convention.

How long does the wedding planning process typically take?

Destination wedding planning timelines vary based on complexity and availability. We typically recommend 6–12 months for a comprehensive planning process that allows for thoughtful venue curation, vendor coordination, and experiential design. For couples with flexible timelines, we can work with accelerated schedules. During initial consultation, we'll discuss your timeline and what's realistically achievable for your specific wedding production.

How do I choose a wedding venue in Portugal?

Event Boutique works with you to select a venue that aligns with your vision, guest experience goals, and production needs. We evaluate venues across multiple dimensions: architectural character, light quality at key times of day, spatial flow and guest journey, accessibility and logistics, atmospheric potential, and alignment with your aesthetic. We have deep knowledge of palace venues in Sintra, coastal estates in Cascais and Algarve, wine estates in the Douro Valley, and urban venues in Lisbon and Porto. We'll show you options and guide you toward the venue that serves your wedding production best.

What are typical budget ranges for destination weddings in Portugal?

Event Boutique specializes in luxury destination wedding production with budgets typically ranging from €70,000 to €250,000+. Budget depends on guest count (typically 50–250 guests for destination weddings), venue rental, accommodation coordination for guests, catering and beverage, florals and décor, photography and videography, music and entertainment, logistics, and production services. During planning, we'll develop a detailed budget breakdown aligned with your vision and priorities.
