Couple from London

Fun-loving couple Sherina and Akil desired a truly relaxed but chic and private wedding. We gave them a great sunset view of iconic sights, with the welcome dinner kicking off with a photoshoot of the couple in Lisbon– the ideal way to celebrate the character and colourful streets of Portugal.

Their wedding celebration took place atop an atmospheric clifftop, their ceremony under an ancient tree, with the ocean below. Olive trees lined the paths to the sea, evoking a countryside feel, while an 8 piece string quartet performed under the setting sun. 

Guests enjoyed a mediterranean al fresco-style feast on tablescapes of dusty blue and delicate coral linens, a colour palette we carried throughout the festivities and came to life in the bride’s hand painted wedding dress.

During the reception, a DJ from London got guests dancing under the stars until the early hours of the morning.
