From Visa policy of the Schengen area:
To be able to enter the Schengen Area/Bulgaria/Croatia/Cyprus/Romania visa waiver, the above Annex II nationals are required to:
- have a travel document which is valid for at least 3 months after the intended date of departure and which has been issued in the previous 10 years
If your passport expires in less than two months, then unfortunately you will likely be refused boarding your plane by your airline.
Its 2 and a half months, but i take it that won't matter much here?

@Subterfugue The passport must be valid until three months after you intend to leave the Schengen area. Whether it expires in less than two months or in two and a half months, it certainly does not meet that requirement.
