It was with the very first email that Renata and Harry stole our hearts. “We love animals, photography and a good laugh” read one of the lines, and we knew it then and there that it would be very unfortunate if we didn´t get the chance to photograph the wedding of the authors of this lovely message 🙂 So after a friendly Skype chat and a couple of more email exchanges, we were on board of the beautiful journey for the couple´s wedding countdown.
On the wedding day we accompanied Renata and Harry right from their getting ready moments, and a happy smile never left the couple´s faces. The effortlessly beautiful Renata had her bridal preparations at the Pestana Palace, while Harry, accompanied by his family and friends, got ready at a nearby apartament.
They picked up Monserrate Palace as the ground of their wedding, where the palace´s gorgeous interiors served for a heartfelt exchange of vowes, while the stunning exteriors were an ideal location for the reception party.
You could feel the excitement filling the palace´s Piano room as the guests came trickling in, and you could see the pure happiness on Harry´s face as he saw his stunning bride walking down the arched corridor. The room quickly filled with very touching exchange of wedding vowes and the couple´s public expression of love. It was actually hard to keep the tears at guard at times – suddenly the vision came blurry as we looked through our lenses 😉
Right at the start of the wedding reception Harry surprised the guests with something very special. After getting a microphone from the Jazz Band and asking for the guests´attention, the air suddenly filled with fabulous Sinatra classics sang by the groom himself. It was definitely one of the highlights of this beautiful day, and Harry showed his great singing talent once again at the dance party later on.
We loved being part of this beautiful wedding! Details were so special and through the day you could feel and see the beauty, the love and the families and friends blending in and getting to know each other. The guests´ genuine love and well wishing to the happy newly weds was also palpable. Toward the end of the cocktail party we took Renata and Harry for some portrait taking and palace exploring. And the surrounding beauty, kissed with the sunsetting light was not in a short supply.
