ABOUT US

Fatima Poptani - WeddingBox Algarve & Lisbon
MEET FATIMA - YOUR WEDDING WINGWOMAN IN PORTUGAL

Hi, I’m Fatima — a wedding planner based in Lisbon, where I plan beautiful celebrations for couples from all over the world.

My approach is simple: I listen, I understand what matters most to you, and I plan a wedding that genuinely reflects your style and your story. Whether you’re imagining a relaxed ceremony by the ocean or an elegant event in a historic venue, I’m here to guide the process and make it smooth, organised, and enjoyable.

I believe weddings should feel authentic and personal, not overwhelming. That’s why I take the time to get to know you both, your preferences, and the details that make your relationship unique.

What you can expect from me:

- A calm, structured approach to planning

- A strong network of trusted suppliers and venues across Portugal

- Clear communication in fluent English

- Support that helps every couple feel confident and at ease

Outside of work, you’ll often find me walking along the beach, spending time with my family, or exploring new locations that might be perfect for future weddings.

 

If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely invest in your day and handle the details with care, I’d love to help bring your vision to life.
