Glamour Algarve Weddings

Glamour Algarve Weddings is led by two planners, Carin Virginio and Patricia Francisco. They describe themselves as destination luxury wedding planners and work as a small team, pairing planning with hands-on coordination so that each supplier is in the right place at the right time on the day.

Their service is boutique in scale. Couples work with the same two planners from the first email through to the wedding itself, with ideas shaped around the couple's own preferences and expectations rather than a fixed format.

“At GLAMOUR WEDDINGS, we create, stylize, and execute your story.”

Glamour Algarve Weddings

Weddings take place across the Algarve, from beach and clifftop ceremonies to palace gardens, quintas, resorts and whitewashed villas. Recent celebrations have included venues such as Estoi Palace, Vila Monte, Vida Mar, Pine Cliffs and Tivoli Carvoeiro.

Alongside planning they offer elopements and micro weddings for smaller, more personal days, and a reservations service that books hotel rooms, apartments and villas for guests, with help arranging excursions, golf packages, car rental and children's entertainment.

Amazing Wedding Planners

Patricia was absolutely amazing she went above and beyond for us for our wedding. We had to change the date due to a huge festival being on and Patricia was amazing she done everything for us and just confirmed our new date with us. Patricia responded so fast to every email with any questions that we had. From the very start she was a pleasure to deal with and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Patricia and Carin. We would highly recommend them.

Review

We had the pleasure of working with Patricia and Carin to plan our wedding in Portugal. We felt we had instant friends in Patricia and Carin. These are two people who we could trust implicitly to help us find exactly what we needed. They were able to answer any questions we had and were incredibly flexible to all of our needs. We would have no problem recommending them to anybody looking for two amazing wedding planners.
