Still have questions? Let’s clear them up.
Is it worth hiring both a photographer and videographer for a destination wedding in Portugal?
Absolutely. Photography freezes emotions in time, while video captures the movement, sound, and raw energy of your day. When you hire us for both, everything flows naturally — one team, one vision, no distractions. It’s the best way to relive your wedding exactly as it felt.
Do you work with US couples too?
Absolutely. We’ve worked with couples from New York, California, Texas, and more. We adapt to your time zones and communication style.
Can you help us find a venue?
Yes — we have a solid list of unique wedding venues in Portugal we love working at. From modern rooftops to forest hideaways.
Do we need to speak Portuguese?
Not at all. Most of your planning can be done in English. We’re fluent, and so are most of the vendors we recommend.
What’s the legal process like for foreigners getting married in Portugal?
It’s possible to do the legal part here, but many couples do the paperwork at home and have a symbolic ceremony in Portugal. It’s more flexible and stress-free.
How far in advance should we book?
Ideally 9–12 months for peak dates. But if your plans are last-minute, reach out — we’ll see what we can do.
Planning a wedding abroad sounds exciting — but let’s be honest, it can also feel like a logistical puzzle. If you’re based in the UK or US and thinking about getting married in Portugal, we’ve got you.
We’re The Storytellers — a photographer and videographer duo based in Porto, Portugal. We work with international couples all the time, especially from the UK and US. Some come for the sunshine, the landscapes, the food. Others come to break tradition and do things their way.
Whatever your reason, we’re here to help make the process easy, beautiful, and fun.
