Intimate Celebrations,
Shared with Those You Love
Whether you celebrate just as a couple or with up to thirty guests, we shape the day around your story and the people you choose to share it with.
From finding the right setting in Portugal to creating your bespoke ceremony and coordinating the day, we bring local knowledge, thoughtful planning and personal attention to each celebration.
Why Portugal?
I Love as Love Loves - Fernando Pessoa
Portugal brings together Atlantic landscapes, historic places and a warm welcome. From coastal cliffs and palace gardens to villages and vineyards, each setting offers a different way to celebrate.
Our couples bring different cultures, identities and life experiences. Whether you are marrying, renewing your vows or bringing your families together, we help you find a place and a way to celebrate that feel right for you.
We do not simply find locations; we interpret landscapes to mirror your personal narrative.

Local knowledge. Personal attention.
Elope in Portugal began with an idea by Anabela Lança, who manages the project and brings together a Portugal-based team with a presence in Lisbon and Porto.
A sociologist specialising in communication and an APC UK-certified celebrant, Anabela combines creative direction and thoughtful planning with a careful understanding of each couple’s story, wishes and priorities.
Together with our local partners, we guide each couple from their first ideas to the celebration itself.
