After the preparations, the celebration continued at Quinta do Vale, in Santo Antão do Tojal. This venue combines traditional architecture with contemporary elements, offering a sophisticated and welcoming environment.

The vast gardens, with trees and plant life from different parts of the world, create a naturally lush beauty all year round. The banquet hall, which can host up to 250 guests, provides access to the lakeside garden – an ideal setting for the cocktail hour while guests await the couple.

The civil ceremony took place outdoors, on a lawn surrounded by gardens that encircle the pool, creating the perfect atmosphere for the moment. Emotion was present in every detail: Vanessa’s nervous excitement, Bruno’s quiet emotion, and the happiness of the wedding guests. These genuine emotions are what make a wedding photographer’s work so fulfilling and inspiring.
