Review of Quinta dos Machados - Country ...

Wedding of Rachel and Tom

Wedding of Rachel and Tom
September 2018

Much better than in our best dreams!

I met the woman of my life in Paris, but it was at Quinta dos Machados that we lived our 3 best days ever.

I cannot put into words what Rachel, I and all the guests feel, but I'll do my best.

As we entered in to Quinta dos Machados and we were welcomed by Carmo, we felt immediately at home. We realized that was where we wanted to get married.

We started with a barbecue by the woods and Ribeira de Pedrulhos the day before the wedding and it was just perfect ...... the food the ambience not to mention the friendliness and professionalism of all the staff.

The guests stayed in the hotel and as it happened to us, they also felt at home. This contributes to our marriage being in the opinion of many, the best marriage they have ever been to (our guests are demanding and came from all over the world). This feeling of belonging and family is indescribable and was recorded in the hearts of all.

After the wedding day ...we all got settled on the Quinta dos Machados, where there was a team of hairdressers and make up that treated all the ladies ... and made the party start early in the morning!

On this day one of the highest points was the ceremony in the woods, it was magical! The nature, the surroundings, the music and once again all the support of the organization (I want to highlight once again the involvement of Carmo).

After all, the day remained a dream come true, with cocktails served in a wonderful place, the food was exceptional, the service very professional and the staff was very friendly.

We end with a brunch the next day and the rest of the afternoon at the pool and in the woods discovering the sensory path and cycling.

We do not know how to thank Quinta dos Machados and his team, this is undoubtedly a place of exception and at the level of the best we know.

We recommend and will be back!
