Sintra · 18 September 2027
For you, with all our love For , with all our love
A silk ribbon, a golden seal and a yes beneath the wisteria.
Margaux and Alessandro would love you to join them for their wedding, one September evening, at a quinta tucked away among the mist and ferns of the Sintra hills.

An 1890 herbarium
Our story
We met in a second-hand bookshop in Lisbon, both reaching for the same book: an 1890 herbarium with watercolour plates of wisteria. Neither of us would let it go, so we shared it over a coffee that lasted all afternoon.
Seven years later we are going back to Portugal, to a quinta in the hills where the wisteria, if the summer is kind, blooms a second time in September. That is where we want to celebrate with you.

The day
One September evening in the hills, from the garden to the last dance.
-
Ceremony beneath the pergola
In the wisteria garden, with the hills wrapped in mist beyond.
-
Drinks on the camellia terrace
White port, oysters and a string quartet among the ferns.
-
Dinner in the glasshouse
Long tables under the glass, candlelight and gold-rimmed porcelain.
-
First dance
And then music, until the mist rolls back up the hills.

The venue
Quinta das Glicínias
Fictional sample content
A romantic quinta invented for this sample: an ivory and rose façade, blue azulejos, a pergola heavy with wisteria and an iron-and-glass glasshouse among the camellias. On a real website, this is where the address, parking and a map link would go.

Good to know
Everything you need to arrive unhurried and enjoy the evening in the hills.
-
Coach from Lisbon
A coach will leave central Lisbon at 15:45 and another Sintra station at 16:45, returning at 1:00 and 3:00. Sample times.
-
Where to stay
Quintas, guesthouses and small hotels in Sintra and along the Cascais coast. On a real website, our list with booking codes would go here.
-
Garden formal
Soft tones and fabrics that flow. The ceremony is on lawn and gravel, so block heels are best.
-
The mist in the hills
Evenings turn cool among the trees, even in September: bring a wrap or a light jacket.
Until the wisteria blooms again
It’s now part of our story. Thank you for being with us!
