Our Story

Clarence and Courtnie

On a sunny day in August 2021 we met at our close friend’s wedding, just before the first drinks we shared our first drink.

By Bonfire night we made it official. Over 2022–2025 we spent time travelling, healing, laughing, and learning more about God and each other.

We celebrated New Year’s 2025 in Berlin with two of our close friends. We saw the Berlin Wall, ate amazing food, visited every Christmas market we could find. Then, on a snow-covered New Year’s Eve, with fireworks lighting up the sky and even the streets, Clarence proposed in the most perfect way (even though he said he would never propose in a different country).

In 2027, we will become husband and wife and would love for you to join us.

Cascais in June is warm and dry, typically 23–28°C, with a light coastal breeze in the evening. A light layer for after sunset is a good idea.
We love your little ones, but we've chosen to keep the day adults-only, with the exception of immediate family. Thank you for understanding.
Only guests named on the invitation are included in our numbers with the venue. If you're unsure whether this includes a plus-one, please reach out to us directly.
As soon as they're booked. Your RSVP moves from provisional to confirmed once we have your flight details — this helps us finalise numbers with the venue.
Portugal uses the Euro (€). Cards are widely accepted, but it's worth carrying a little cash for small taxis, tips, or local cafes.

Just next door to Cascais, with a lovely seafront promenade you can walk between the two. There's a bit of old-school charm here — palm-lined gardens and (if you fancy a flutter) Europe's biggest casino.

A bit quieter and greener, with its own little marina and beach. There's a lovely train line running right along the coast, so it's an easy one if you don't fancy driving.

Vila Galé Collection Palácio dos Arcos
5★ · Palatial & grand

Honestly magical — a little hillside town full of old palaces and gardens, tucked into the forest. Well worth a visit even if you're staying elsewhere, but just as lovely to base yourselves here for a few extra minutes' drive.
