Sofia & Rui chose October for their big day. We love the light and the colors in the Fall and the weather was just perfect.
We started the day with Sofia and his family. Bridesmaids were so funny and welcoming, and we had some good laughs before heading to the Venue in Lisbon.
Secret Spot - Getting Ready With Friends
When we got to the gorgeous apartment where Sofia was getting ready, Lilia Costa was already doing the hairstyling. Andreia de Almeida – M.U.A. did the makeup and Sofia was looking amazing. And this was even before we saw the dress, a delicate short-sleeved dress from Pureza Mello Breyner atlier that looked perfect on Sofia! The bridesmaids were wearing petrol blue dresses and were looking radiant!

The ceremony took place at the beautiful church of Nossa Senhora do Amparo in Lisbon. Sofia & Rui were very emotive and it was such a beautiful moment.
