FAQs

What is the weather like?

The average day time temperature in Lisbon in July is 75-80ºF (20-30ºC) so pack your best swimwear. However, it does get chilly in the evenings as temperatures can drop to 56ºF (13ºC).

With that said, please remember to bring sunscreen (unless you want to look like a Portuguese jamón) and some warm layers for the evening.

(*Note: you will not need warm layers for Saturday as the reception will be inside a tent)

What should I wear?

Welcome Cocktail Party

Cocktail / Smart Casual Attire

Wedding Day

This is a black tie affair.

On the shoe front, ladies - try to avoid wearing stiletto heels. There are a bunch of grassy/dirt areas that you might have to walk in so wear chunky heels, wedges or sandals. Can't have any of you ruining nice shoes or breaking any ankles. Additionally, we will be providing flip flops so everyone can be more comfortable once the dancing begins.

What should I pack?

Here are your must-pack items:

  • Passport - please make sure the expiration date is over 6 months away from your travel date. If not, you will need to get an expedited passport ahead of your trip.

  • Electricity Converters - Type C

  • Comfortable Shoes - Lisbon is a great walking city but there are hills and the streets are made of limestone which can be slippery so pack accordingly (do not wear flip flops)

  • Weekend Outfits (and don’t forget your sunnies!)

  • Toiletries & Medication
