Isabel & Simon

we recommend making porto city centre
your base for the weekend
friday's reception is in the city centrethe main event is a short drive away
(we will provide transport both ways)

by air

francisco sá carneiro airport (opo)
30 min drive from the city centre

by land

porto has 2 convenient train stations
são bento + campanha
both equally convenient

accommodation

we will be staying at the
[hotel tbc]
we invite you to join us
we have a room block + discount
book by [tbc date]
+ be sure to mention our wedding
if not, the city is full
of great hotels + airbnbs
fitting every budget and taste

getting around

porto is designed for ambling on foot
without all that much planning
we highly recommend walking as much as possible
to soak up the romance
(and maybe catch a saudade or 2)
however, it's also very hilly
(tiring, but part of the charm)
so please plan accordingly
uber + taxis are plentiful and cheap
the metro system is modern + fast
(you can pay with contactless)
car rentals are also simple + economical

our story

Isabel & Simon

gifts

joining us in porto is a huge gesture
and it ain't cheap
your presence is the only thing we want
physical, emotional + choreographical
if you insist on giving something material
then we would be extremely grateful
if you wrote us a heartfelt letter
or contributed to our honeymoon fund

Isabel & Simon

why porto?

there are only a handful of places
made for joy + relaxation
situated on beaches, rivers + vineyards
where the food is honest
and the wine is world-class
we're two iberian souls
when we came here the first time
falling in love felt easy
and despite being born elsewhere
it was clear we were at home
the city is known as 'invicta'
— the unvanquished one —
for resisting a years-long siege
when all around it fell
feels like a pretty good omen
as a place to start marriage
