ABOUT
FOUNDER & WEDDING PLANNER
PETRA SIMÕES
Hello, and congratulations on your engagement!
I founded Apoema Events with a simple intention: to create celebrations that feel deeply personal, where every detail has meaning and couples feel supported throughout the planning.
My studies in Luxury Event Management at Glion Institute of Higher Education in Switzerland shaped my approach to hospitality and attention to detail. Weddings gave that foundation a personal purpose — bringing together people, stories, and thoughtful design.
Today, I work closely with each couple and take on a limited number of weddings each year, allowing me to give every celebration the time, care, and attention it deserves.
YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH ME
Planning your wedding is a personal journey, and I’ll be your point of contact throughout — helping you explore ideas, make informed decisions, and keep sight of what matters most to you.
From finding the right venue and selecting trusted suppliers to managing your budget and developing the design, I bring each element together with your priorities in mind.
On the wedding day, my team and I oversee the preparations, coordinate suppliers, and guide the flow of the celebration, so you can enjoy the moments you’ve been looking forward to.
INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION
Apoema Events was named one of the Top Wedding Planners in the World 2025/26 by Weddings & Honeymoons.
A meaningful recognition of the care, dedication, and personal attention I bring to every celebration.
