Our Wedding

Wednesday, May 18, 2022.Dan convinces his boss to get off early and drives 3 hours to catch a playoff hockey game.Peyton is convinced by her friends to go out and watch the game at the local dive.The Canes win Game 1 in OT; the city of Raleigh buzzes with celebration.The clock strikes midnight at Tin Roof, a most unexpected bar.Just as she begins to leave, he enters—our twin flames drift right into each other..."Hey! You look familiar", she says.He looks up; speechless.A thought darts across his mind, 'I know you from somewhere—but where?'She waits for him to collect his thoughts.He laughs, "Wait... YOU look familiar!"They hug and greet each other as long-lost friends.Her shirt reads, "Mama needs a beer"Dan is compelled to oblige.They crack a couple cold ones and dance until the bar closes.Peyton offers her couch for our weary traveler.Dan, once again, obliges.From that night on, they talk every single day.Over 3 years, across 3 continents.No matter time or distance,our star-crossed lovers laugh, cry, and hope for their future together.Today, that future has become the present.Over those years apart,through all the plans that seemed impossible gone perfect,and all the plans that seemed perfect gone completely out the window,the strange string of coincidences that brought them together spun and wove into a sturdy rope of faith—a faith that has guided them exactly where they're meant to be.With this rope of faith, Dan and Peyton tie the everlasting knot!

Things to Do

Flying in to Lisbon: Lisbon airport can occasionally experience longer passport control lines during busy travel periods. We recommend allowing extra time upon arrival and ensuring you have a valid biometric passport for the smoothest entry experience. Uber and Bolt are the easiest ways to get into the city once you land. Best Ways to Speed Up Arrival in Lisbon Use the ePassport Gates (If Available)Many U.S. travelers with biometric passports can use the automated e-gates at Lisbon Airport instead of the fully manual immigration line. Availability can vary depending on staffing and the new EU Entry/Exit System rollout. To maximize your chances:- Use a newer biometric U.S. passport- Avoid removing passport covers before scanning- Follow signage for “Automatic Border Control” or “eGates” Book VIP Meet &amp; Greet / Fast Track ServicesThere are paid VIP airport concierge services that can escort you through immigration and security faster at Humberto Delgado Airport. These are usually best for:- older family members- large groups- travelers with tight connections- luxury travelersNote: the airport’s official “Fast Track” product mainly speeds up security departure lines — not always immigration on arrival. Arrive Earlier in the Day If PossibleLisbon immigration tends to get busier when multiple overnight U.S. flights land simultaneously in the morning. Midday arrivals are often smoother.

How to get around Lisbon! 1. The Metro (Fastest for the City)The Lisbon Metro is clean, modern, and inexpensive. Airport Connection: The Red Line takes you straight from the airport to the city center in about 20 minutes. Lines: Four color-coded lines (Blue, Yellow, Green, and Red) cover most major neighborhoods. 2. Trams &amp; Funiculars (Most Iconic)Lisbon’s famous yellow trams are both a transport method and a major tourist attraction. Tram 28: Famous for winding through historic Alfama, but expect extreme crowding. Funiculars: To conquer the infamous hills, ride historic funiculars like Bica, Glória, or Lavra. 3. Rideshares: Uber &amp; Bolt (Convenient &amp; Affordable)Ridesharing apps are highly popular, cost-effective, and ideal when you are carrying luggage or traveling late at night. They are often preferred over traditional taxis, which can sometimes overcharge tourists. 4. Walking (Best for Sightseeing)Walking is the best way to immerse yourself in the city's charm. Just prepare yourself for a workout—Lisbon is the "City of Seven Hills," so sturdy, comfortable walking shoes are an absolute must. How to Pay: The Navigante CardTo use the public transport network (metro, buses, and historic trams), purchase a Navegante card (formerly Viva Viagem) for €0.50 at any metro station or kiosk. Zapping: Load a cash balance onto the card for discounted single trips (around €1.61). Daily Pass: For €6.80, you get unlimited 24-hour access to all Carris buses, trams, funiculars, and the metro. Apps: Download the Citymapper or Carris app to easily plan your transit routes around the city.
