DRESS CODE

Get dressed up for night 1 at the palace. It will be Valentine’s Day after all. Color is encouraged!

Dress to impress — please wear black, but that doesn’t mean be boring! Feel free to get creative with fabrics and accessories.

Ideally, men in tuxedos and women in floor length dresses or jumpsuits. If you need help, click here for black tie guidelines.

FAQs

It will technically still be winter. However, the algarve is one of the sunniest places in the world. You can expect average daily temperatures to be between 60-75 degrees. Although it will definitely get chillier after the sun goes down.
Please note that it is shortly after the rainy season ends so there may be rain. In the event that it rains, the events will be moved inside. But you may be required to walk a short distance in the rain so be prepared.

The ceremony space is a short walk down 2 levels of stone stairs. So keep that in mind when selecting your shoe choice! Cocktail hour and dinner are also outside. However, they are just right outside the main palace and the surface is more sturdy.
