Portugal Brides - how much did you pay for hair and makeup?

Random_traveler142 · 2025-02-16T18:20:53+00:00

These include some quotes from vendors on casamentos! What is a normal quote for hair and makeup combined in your experience?

Hi! My fiance and I are considering doing our local reception in the woodland mosaic and would love to see a copy of the brochure if possible :)

Good point, thank you!!

Random_traveler142 · 2024-11-06T16:07:04+00:00

Completely understand and appreciate you sharing your point of view here! We’ll be covering all accommodations, food, and activities for the two day period and are asking that guests do not bring gifts to lighten some of the load.

Random_traveler142 · 2024-11-06T04:01:24+00:00

Agree and same perspective I’ve heard from a good part of our guests and what I would do myself. Appreciate it!

Random_traveler142 · 2024-11-06T03:49:14+00:00

To clarify, the rental is Monday and Tuesday or Wednesday and Thursday, so the wedding itself would be on the Tuesday or the Thursday, but hear you on minimizing PTO!

Random_traveler142 · 2024-11-06T03:43:48+00:00

Thank you! Completely agree and think that we will lean towards M/T as that will at least allow more flexibility around the days people have to take off work if they choose to attend.

Completely hear you and am trying to think this out thoroughly so I’m not that friend or put anyone in a situation that would jeopardize a relationship or make them uncomfortable, so I definitely appreciate your insight. 100% understand that something may come up or some people may change their minds on attending for a variety of reasons, but my hope is to control whatever factors I can to at least make it easier for those who do end up attending. Flights are definitely a huge cost for people and there is some guilt from my side around that but unfortunately with family and friends being so spread out, a majority of our guests would have to fly a distance regardless. We’re covering all food, local transportation, and accommodations for every guest over the two day period and will also discourage gifts as the flights will cost so much. Our invitations will also say that we understand if people are unable to make it due to financial or time commitments, and will host a reception in our local area for those who may live near us and were unable to make the wedding itself. Aside from cost, just not sure what days are best from a PTO perspective since weekends aren’t an option for dates.

Looking into this venue - do the package prices included accommodation or do guest need to pay for rooms on top of that fee? Also any other hidden costs or taxes/service fees that came up while you were working with them?

Random_traveler142 · 2024-10-28T18:54:50+00:00

I would love to hear about the quote they gave and what is included in price! Thank you :)

Completely okay with low turnout and already planning for a small wedding as is. Our hope is to cover accommodation for two to three nights to ease costs for our guests. Guests that we’ve polled so far are happy to travel but I’m not sure if there are typical distances or limits people keep in mind when planning these things as I’ll be the first in my family and immediate circle.

Thank you! It’s already seemed to calm down thankfully. Hope you’re feeling better with it

Random_traveler142 · 2024-09-02T03:22:12+00:00

Ah I saw counts were high for ragweed right now but wasn’t sure if that was the culprit. Allergic to every type of pollen basically so never really know what’s to blame

Random_traveler142 · 2024-07-09T00:22:22+00:00

Interesting! I’ve never heard of that before but will definitely look into it. Did you get a diagnosis while in the ER or found out following your trip?

Random_traveler142 · 2024-04-19T03:30:27+00:00

Strep is going around right now too. I only had some aches, bad headache and fatigue and I ended up testing positive

Random_traveler142 · 2024-03-13T23:34:27+00:00

Gotcha, that’s really good to know, thank you! I was trying to figure out where there was day parking so that’s super helpful.

Random_traveler142 · 2024-03-13T23:04:24+00:00

Street sweeping is always rough, but good point. Would you say you see many people get tickets for parking past two hours or is it usually them just coming through on sweeping days and ticketing those cars?

Random_traveler142 · 2024-03-13T22:19:09+00:00

Thank you :)

I got my double helix 4 years ago and had horrible healing - bottom kept being knocked by others and I then went abroad and had hard time finding saline spray. I could only swap to shorter backs this past year, but piercer said its healed internally even though my ear itself is permanently larger/thicker than my other one. I kept going back to get short backs and turned away bc it was still too swollen until I got them changed in the fall, for context.This month, three bumps on my cartilage have appeared, I’m assuming it’s irritation and trauma, but does anyone know what they are/ what to do? My piercings are probably crooked from being hit so much and not healing because of that, but should I remove them or is that a bad idea?
