A family-rooted name.
A vision built on love.
We are LAVINI Weddings, founded by photographers and storytellers Helena Araújo & Lucho Vargas, a couple who believes that an intimate wedding deserves the same beauty, care and artistry as any grand celebration.
LAVINI was born from our desire to offer couples from around the world the chance to elope in Portugal with simplicity, elegance and trust.
Our name is a tribute to our children, Laura and Vinicius. A reminder that every story we capture is treated with the same dedication and emotion as we give to our own family.
We make any idea and wish come true
We provide full-service planning
Over the past decade, we have guided more than 200 couples through weddings across Portugal: from palaces and vineyards to cliffs, islands and historical towns.
Our team of photographer-guides – personally trained by Lucho – ensures a cohesive aesthetic and a calm, intentional experience.
