LOVE LETTERS
At TALES we pride ourselves in knowing that the relationships we build are for life, as there is nothing more reassuring than to know that a wedding is only the beginning of a lifetime of sharing.
Creating beautiful events is a driving motivation but, what really keep us accomplished is to know that after all the laughter and happy tears, we will receive the forever photos of future wedding anniversaries, baby bumps, and all other events that life has to offer.
Here are some of the love letters that our couples addressed us.

Hi Marta, just wanted to say a big thank you to you and the entire Tales team. The entire wedding, from set up of the ceremony right through to tiniest details of the napkins exceeded our expectations. You took our vision and brought it to life and executed things beautifully. We are so grateful for the journey we've been on with you and for that you will forever hold a special place in our hearts. You were more than our wedding planner. You were our support system, you kept me calm throughout the process. No task was too big, you always came with ideas and solutions. You worked all hours despite the time zone in Dubai. You went over and beyond your call of duty.
Our wedding was scheduled 3 times from India, Dubai and London. But now I know why because our wedding was destined to be in Portugal and for all our family and friends to be in attendance and to meet you. I'm sad it's over!!! Both our families are humbled by your grace and affection and everything you did to make them feel comfortable. You're class act! Love, Kam & João
As seen in THE LANE:
Our wedding planner was the brilliant Marta Lourenço from Taleswpt. As we were planning an overseas wedding, we needed someone on the ground who would have an existing network and would be able to coordinate with all the vendors. Marta truly did all the heavy lifting in bringing our vision to life, finding and meeting all the vendors, making design and styling suggestions based on my mood boards, and offering ideas and managing our expectations all along the way.
Sendo portugueses a residir no estrangeiro e a casar em Portugal, decidimos contratar os serviços de um wedding planer para nos ajudar com o nosso casamento e optámos pela TALES. Não podíamos ter escolhido melhor!
A Marta percebeu logo a nossa visão para o dia e tornou toda a organização do casamento extremamente fácil e agradável.
A Marta tem uma ótima rede de fornecedores para todos os gostos. Tudo ficou perfeito e sentimos mesmo que todas as escolhas de fornecedores seja local, comida, flores, DJ, fotógrafos etc ia exatamente ao encontro daquilo que queríamos para o nosso dia.
A pandemia fez com que tivéssemos de mudar de planos umas quantas vezes mas a Marta e sua equipa acompanharam e apoiaram-nos ao longo do processo sem que tivéssemos nunca de comprometer a nossa visão.
Continuamos a receber elogios em relação ao casamento, todos os convidados comentaram o quão bonito foi (e o quão boa era a comida). Muitos disseram que foi o melhor casamento ao qual foram e só posso concordar, não mudávamos nada!
Marta e equipa, OBRIGADA por tudo, não podia ter sido melhor.
Relembraremos sempre este dia com muito carinho :)
Marta and her team organized our wedding in August 2021.
All of our guests said, that they have never been to such an amazing wedding and that it was like out of a movie and that they will still talk about it in 50 years.
We are super super happy that we chose her to plan our big day because no one could have done it better!
Marta did an outstanding job and did everything so that we could have the perfect day.
She is on time, replies quickly to messages, has a lot of experience which can save some money and prevent mishaps, has an amazing style and is able to create the most beautiful wedding you can imagine. Plus she has contacts to the best people in the industry and knows who suits your style/taste/etc.. best.
To make it short: So worth it - highly recommend and a huge thank you to Marta and her lovely team!!!!
Marta conquered us in the first meeting - she was lovely, smiley, fresh, full of ideas and of a 'hands-on, ready to go' attitude. She was also very honest about what we could expect from the journey of planning a wedding, all the struggles and all the things that could be achieved. We had no doubts! Throughout time, she remained the same. She has this great capacity of really listening and understanding you as a person and as a couple, what your taste is, what your dreams are, where you draw the line, and she is flexible in attending these requirements and addressing each of us 'sharply'. She also has great taste, experience and connections, which just makes it easier to do everything. The journey was a fabulous path of conversations, skype calls, information exchange, ideas rolling, and always fun, always positive, always firm - she knew she would get all the pieces together, even when it felt like an immense load of unnconnected dots. And she is patient enough to get you through the 'zilla' moments and assure you everything will be alright! We felt Marta pretty much as a cool friend always by our side - you have a question, you ask Marta; something is failing, Marta will help us solve; you have this crazy over the top idea, Marta will try to make it come true; you have no clue at what time your reception starts, you tell your friends to ask Marta. In addition, she naturally relates to your friends and family and to all the suppliers involved, adding to the 'loving family feeling' of the big day. Her team is the mirror of all this - fun, smiley, committed, tireless, connected. They made all the difference during the big day, smoothly and discreetly, perfect. They make it look easy, and we know now it is definitely not! Above all, they brought to life exactly what we had dreamt of, except better. I've been recomending Tales to all my friends and family and I will continue doing so. And I'll keep Marta on speed dial for all questions and for all celebrations that will come. Thank you SO much, Marta and team!!! Thank you will never be enough. Um beijinho, Mafalda & João (#loveontherocks)
It was a A W E S O M E!! We know that we gave you a hard job with 500 guests! But you Marta? You were incredible since day one. Always ready to help, happy and full of ideas, we knew how to handle us and all the suppliers in the best way possible. Honestly we have NOTHING bad to say, only to thank you! Thank you for all the attention, availability, flexibility, patience and love you shared with us during this last year. We are forever grateful for everything you have done for us in the last 11 months. It's a wrap!
Dear Marta and Raquel, thank you so much for your thoughtfulness, expertise, dedication, and kindness to make our special day so so special for us and our guests! Everyone enjoyed it so much, and we definitely couldn't have done it without you :)! You both are amazing ladies, and I have no doubt in recommending you to anyone dreaming of a wedding in Portugal! I tried to write a review on Google, but couldn't log in successfully. I may try again when back in Canada. :). Thank you for the well wishes, we also wish only the best to you. May your life be filled with blessings and happiness day after day. <3. Thank you for all that ou do, it is so so appreciated! :)!
Marta - Thank you so much for all your help and patience in planning our big day at Casa Arte. We are so happy with how it turned out and are so lucky to have these memories forever! Hope we can stay in touch - all the best. We are so thankful! XX
We have no words to thank for all the excellent work, which lead to the happiest day of our lives, that we reminisce about every day whenI wake up, always wanting to go back and relive the process all over again. It was definitely an excellent choice that we did because, not only we hired the best wedding planner, but I dare to say that besides the professional connection, we developed a friendship that will last forever! I for sure recommend Tales' services, as my wedding could not have been better and without Marta it would not have been the same at all. Thank you for everything! You know that when the baby comes you will have to organize the christening Big kisses and thank you so so much for everything.
My husband and I got married in Sintra in 2018 and Marta organized everything for us: Location, catering for 4 days, decoration, activities outside the wedding and many more details. She put in a tremendous effort to really understand what we desired and to fulfill all our dreams for the special day. She also came up with very nice ideas herself on how to make it even more special. We wanted a very small and intimate wedding and this is exactly what we got. The location was perfect and the decoration pretty yet simple (as we had explicitly asked for!) and with a lot of lovely little details we would never have thought of. She even involved her friends and family to give us exactly what we wanted: A family celebration in a beautiful setting. During the preparations she was always quick to respond and organized everything very well. Every contact with her was very friendly and she creates a lovely atmosphere around her. The vendors she chose were reliable and delivered good quality. Thanks to Marta we had a fantastic wedding and we will always keep a warm place in our hearts for her.
Marta thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It was better than what we had ever imagined and you did everything for us! You had all the patience in the world! It was the best day of my life!! Please thank all of your team. I will thank Rita for the spokes and the videographer team as well. Diogo was brilliant! You did more than what we had requested for!! The sax was perfect! The food and the drinks were amazing!
First of all I would like to say thank you to Marta for being part of the most special day of our lives!
We travelled all the way from California to have an elopement at Praia da Ursa, quick ceremony followed by a photo session with Pedro Bento. Everything was very well organized and Marta was awesome making everything flow smoothly. She was also great communicating and having everything done before our arrival to Portugal. Marta is very attentive to the details and treated this event with so much love and care, I could not be happier with the results! Everything was very easy and smooth so we could really enjoy every second. She also recommended the best professionals!! I had my hair done with Tania de Sousa and she was the best!!! The photos with Pedro Bento are incredible, awesome quality and just what I expected very natural and spontaneous! Thank you again Marta, now we have the most beautiful memories from a moment that we will need forget.
Working with TALES was the best decision we could have made! In the beginning we were indecisive because we did not know if we wanted to hire a design and decoration service. After many days of research we understood that this would definitely be an asset for our big day. Having this type of service saves us a lot of time and work. In reality, Marta and her team made sure our day was wonderful and were so helpful. They were so helpful, answered all of our requests, and worked hard to make sure we had a day according to our desires. It could not have been better! Thank you TALES for all your love, which can be seen every time you do a service"
