A Beautiful Wedding at Casa Do Lago

We had the pleasure of photographing Lisa & Chris' wedding day at Casa Do Lago in Portugal. In this blog post, they tell us all about how they met and their top tips for planning their special day.

Your Love Story....Tell us where it all began.....

We matched on Tinder, Chris messaged me saying we had the same taste in pens (he could see we had a mutual Facebook like) then I proceeded to ignore him!

A couple of weeks later we were at a mutual friend's going away party before he moved away to Australia, I always assumed he was a player so didn't give it much thought but then he won me over with his charm and 9 years later here we are..

When and where did you get engaged?
