Hi,

My sister wants to get married in CVO next June, but we are having problems finding out about the legalities, I have tried to contact a few CVO.com members who I know have done it, but have received no replies, can anybody help. If it is very complicated, she may consider getting married in a register office in the UK and having a blessing in CVO.

Also she is looking for the perfect venue
She is a bit unothodox and would like maybe a villa with fantastic location or a really nice restaurant, again with nice grounds, anybody got any ideas?
I know you won't let me down

Thanks in advance

I don't know any answers to the above Tricks..but..
are you gonna be bridesmaid?
and can I come and take pics for a 'story' please

Any escuse for a drink Ellie !

Hi Ellie

No. I'm not going to be bridesmaid, my 13yr old daughter might be, but only if she can wear and mini-skirt and far too much make-up
I'm sure there will be a place for an 'official best selling author

Ill bring along me camera/notebook & pen.........

When friends of ours enquired, they were told they had to have been Portuguese residents for at least three months. This was some time ago, things could have changed!

why don't you try alvor's church for the wedding and carvoeiro for the reception?

i think the priest in alvor is more liberal, you'll have to give a generous donation to the church tought, the church is very hold and constatly needs maintenance and the priest is in charge of it, and he doesn't get much money from the vatican, ho and a bottle of a good malt whisky, he love's it

My wife and I are rapidly careering towards our second (bakelite?) wedding anniversary, and with the benefit of hindsight, we realise that the most perfect spot in the world for our wedding in 2003 would have been the "Alamo" Church on the East Cliff of Carvoeiro. Every time we've been back to CVO since, we have visited the church to see what we missed.

If your sister wants a truly memorable spot, with not a fag-end or crisp packet in sight, that is the place to have her wedding.

Failing that within the precincts of the lighthouse at Cape St Vincent, the most south-westerly point of Europe. (Well, I had to work Nelson into this post somehow!)
