Hotel Palácio Estoril
Logistics

Travel & Stay

The wedding takes place along the Estoril coast, a thirty-minute drive west of central Lisbon. The hotel, the church, and the reception are all within walking distance of one another.

Where to Stay

A block of rooms has been reserved for our guests at Hotel Palácio Estoril, a landmark hotel that has hosted royalty, writers, and the occasional spy since 1930. Booking instructions and the group rate will be added here. Details TBD

Getting There

Fly into Lisbon Portela Airport (LIS). It is the only major international airport in Portugal and is well connected to the United States and Europe.

From the airport to Estoril is roughly 30–40 minutes by car or taxi. A train along the Cascais line also runs from central Lisbon to Estoril.

On Foot

Once you are in Estoril, every wedding venue is within a short walk of the hotel. No shuttles, no caravans — bring comfortable shoes.

Before You Go

Your passport must be valid through at least September 2027 — three months past the wedding weekend. If it expires before then, renew well in advance. US passport processing can take weeks.

ETIAS travel authorization. Starting late 2026, US, UK, Canadian, and other visa-exempt travelers need ETIAS approval to enter the Schengen Zone. €20, applied online, usually approved within minutes, valid three years. March 2027 falls in a six-month transitional period, so you may technically enter without it — but apply anyway. Use the official EU portal only; lookalike sites will charge you more and do nothing for you. Official link added closer to the date

The basics. Portugal uses euros. Contactless payment (Apple Pay, Google Pay, tap-to-pay cards) is accepted almost everywhere. Outlets are European two-pin (Type F), 230V — a basic universal adapter is all you need.
