About this venue

Location

In our experience as wedding planners in Europe, we have proven that the best Portugal weddings do not happen only along the beaches. They also occur in Portuguese wine regions with endless vineyards and picturesque green valleys.

This 15th-century wedding palace is one of those venues that make dreamy vineyard weddings come true. Located at the heart of the wine region of Alenquer, you will find yourself surrounded by endless vineyards and vibrant greens that best characterize the Portuguese countryside.

Not only that. Alenquer is also known for its harmoniously designed houses resembling a big amphitheater. Alenquer is interestingly called the "crib town" for this reason. Alenquer is also home to the protected area of Serra de Montejunto, rich with green rolling hills and juniper valley, an exciting site to visit for your honeymoon in Portugal.

Reception

Anywhere you serve cocktails in this venue, your guests will be delighted by the vineyards, gardens, and courtyard views. Let them smell the breeze and enjoy the picturesque views of the wine region of Alenquer while you snap some shots after the ceremony.

As for the wedding reception, you can have it inside one of the palace's rooms, or the grandest way possible, inside the unique and pretty greenhouse. The greenhouse sits in the middle of the venue, surrounded by the palace buildings.

Taste the modern and traditional Portuguese dishes prepared by the venue chefs, and dance the night away afterward. The greenhouse can serve as the area for the wedding dinner and the venue for your evening party. Decorate it the way you want according to your theme, and make every bit of your wedding dream come true.

Contact us and chat with our wedding planner if you want this palace to be the venue of your Portugal destination wedding.

Ceremony

Whether you're imagining an outdoor wedding, a solemn ceremony, or a royal indoor wedding, you can have it in this beautiful palace.

The ambiance of the palace will make you feel like you're in a Bridgerton episode, with all the glam, romance, and history of the early 19th-century.

You can tie the knot in the middle of its beautiful garden or the spacious courtyard where lovely outdoor weddings take place. Imagine saying your I dos on a fine sunny day with lush greenery and the historic ivy-walled palace in the background.

You can also have an intimate ceremony inside one of the venue's various rooms with high-end decor and large windows opening up to the garden and the courtyard. The rooms are great alternatives to the palace's outdoor areas when the weather fails to cooperate on your wedding day.
