Marrying in Portugal, living elsewhere
Your gown is made to your measurements in our atelier in Cascais, near Lisbon. The first fitting can be by video, wherever you are, and the finished gown is delivered across Europe.
How it works from abroad
A first fitting by video. We meet by video wherever you live: we talk through your wedding and the silhouette, take your measurements and talk through the fabric. It is always complimentary, and you decide afterwards.
Twelve to sixteen weeks in the atelier. From confirmed measurements your gown is cut, sewn and finished by hand — Italian silk tulle, French floral lace, beadwork and three-dimensional appliqué.
A final fitting, then delivery. We perfect every line at the final fitting, then press, pack and deliver your gown across Europe. Tell us when you will be in Portugal when you first write, so the timeline can be planned around your travel.
When to begin. We recommend starting six to nine months before the wedding, to leave time for fittings. A shorter timeline can sometimes be accommodated — ask the atelier.
Price. Made-to-order bridal gowns begin at €2,000, reserved with a 50% deposit; the balance is due when the gown is complete.
