Quinta da Matina - The Wedding
We are delighted our wedding ceremony will take place here on the lawn and under the shade of the palm trees at Janey's parents' house, Quinta da Matina. This beautiful place is very special to both of us and we are very grateful to Andy and Hilly for allowing us to take up the reins for a day!
You'll find the house in the village of Portelas, about 3km outside Lagos. We will provide directions, more info and detailed maps nearer the time. There will be ample parking here but if you choose to take a taxi from Lagos centre it shouldn't cost you much more than 6 Euros. We will also be providing transport for those that require it from here to the reception venue, which is about 4km away - more details to follow. Things will probably kick off from 3:30-4pm - TBC.

Duna Beach Club - The Reception
We always wanted to get married outside, somewhere hot and preferably on the beach. Duna Beach is about as close as we could get! Located among the sand dunes at Meia Praia beach, our reception will be open air and under the stars. More details about timings, menus and the like will appear here in due course but we shall be here from approximately 6:30pm (TBC). Oh and we'll probably keep just a few surprises up our sleeves - just to keep you on your toes!
Team Wedding!
None of this would be possible, of course, without our crack team of helpers pulling the strings, otherwise known as The Wedding Party. Let us introduce you!
The Parents: Andy & Hilly Nicholls, Liz Mitchell.
The Bridesmaids: Funmi Majekodunmi, Susanne Emans, Amy Purefoy, Alice Dartnall.

The Morning After...
We will be hosting a Sunday brunch at Quinta da Matina the day after the wedding for all those who would like to come (and can make it out of bed!). It will be a leisurely affair, kicking off around 12ish. More details to come nearer the time.
