"Portugals wedding capital." Sintra by cachaseiro
Sintra Travel Guide: 529 reviews and 2,121 photos
Sintra is a very romantic little town set right outside Lisbon up in the hills.
the town is full of castles, churches and other historic buildings and is one of the most scenic towns in Portugal.
Sintra has specialised in arranging weddings because of it's romantic setting.
I went there for the wedding of two of my best friends in may 2007.
Two years earlier my old friend Claudia from portugal came to Denmark to start up a buisness and i introduced her to my good friend Lars and they ended up getting married.
We had a really nice wedding party there with people from all over the world as both Lars and Claudia are keen travellers and have lot's of friends around the world.
- Pros:very pretty
- Cons:very touristy
- In a nutshell:worth a couple of days.

So- Claus now you have found the ideal setting, you can get married lol! Nice little page and photos.
I too want to get married in Sintra, it's been my dream but so far no one wants to take me! Claus, it was pure fun to finally meet you at the Meet. Next time we need to have a really good conversation. Just got back from Algarve.
Thats a beautiful opening picture and a great story to go along with it.
Seriously, what a great place to have a wedding. Loved Sintra. Did you go to Belem just for the pastry? That's why I went :D
Love the castle. Nice pictures. :-)
The only thing I remember from Cintra is an excellent açorda dish! I missed the romantic side, obviously!
Ahh, so romantic - the story and the locatin! Hope the party was great as well :)
Thanks a lot for your comment! Indeed, Sintra seems the perfect place for a wedding :-) Hope you liked it!
Sintra is indeed a beautiful place for a wedding! Looks like everyone was very happy with it all but, did anyone dance with the best man?!
The best man looks fabulous. Lovely little wedding page.
