Sonho a Dois is a wedding planning company in Faro, in the Algarve, founded in 2010 by Noélia Jacinto and Carla Valentim. Both were born and raised in the region, and the team has planned more than 1,500 weddings for couples from around the world. The name means a dream shared by two people.
Planning is full-service and built for couples organising from abroad. The team handles venue search, supplier selection, budgets, tastings, timelines and the wedding day itself, and travels with couples to view venues and attend menu tastings. Noélia, Carla, Sandra Martins, Marisa Valente and Jessica Sofia each lead weddings, supported by administration coordinator Liliana Patrícia.
“Doing weddings is more than creating a happy day… Is taking part of a start of a happy life.”

Design is part of the service. The team looks at the venue, the light, the season and the feel the couple want, then builds a direction that runs through flowers, stationery, table design, lighting and linens. Their stated approach is that trends should never lead the celebration. The photographs they publish run from white garden ceremonies and clifftop aisles above the sea to church weddings, vintage cars and long banquets under festoon lights.
Every couple receives a private online planning space. Before booking, it shows more than 50 Algarve wedding venues with photographs, menus and details. Once planning begins, it opens up access to more than 150 trusted suppliers with portfolios, packages and prices, alongside the timeline, budget, payments, guest list, seating plan and moodboards, plus a wedding website to share with guests.
