Wedding at the Red Cross Palace | Inês e Eduardo

A Dream Wedding at Palácio da Cruz Vermelha

Have you ever imagined getting married in a palace in the heart of Lisbon in 2025, with a breathtaking view over the Tagus River and a setting straight out of a movie? Palácio da Cruz Vermelha (officially known as Palácio da Rocha do Conde d’Óbidos) remains one of the most iconic wedding venues in the Portuguese capital. This year, I’m sharing the story of Inês and Eduardo’s wedding—a day filled with emotions, elegance, and unforgettable moments, proving that 2025 is the perfect year to say “I do” in this stunning location.

A charming autumn wedding

Inês and Eduardo came to me through the wedding planner Outlux Weddings and Events.

They chose to get married in late November, that magical time of year when Lisbon’s Christmas lights start twinkling, and the crisp air makes everything feel more cozy. The day started out cloudy with a bit of rain, but that only made the atmosphere more intimate and romantic. And if there’s a perfect venue for a winter wedding, it’s definitely the Red Cross Palace!

This palace has a timeless charm—high ceilings, walls adorned with classical paintings, a golden library, and a breathtaking river view. It’s the perfect setting for an elegant wedding filled with history.

Getting ready at Palácio Ramalhete

The day started with Eduardo getting ready at home, surrounded by family and an incredible view over the Tagus River. The Christmas tree was already up, adding an extra special touch to the morning.

nês, on the other hand, chose an iconic location to get ready: Ramalhete Palace, a place filled with history and Lisbon charm. Now that Madonna no longer lives there (yes, there was a time when she was their neighbor!), the palace is once again available for those seeking a sophisticated and classic setting.

Autumn Wedding at Palácio da Cruz Vermelha

I already know the Palácio da Rocha do Conde d’Óbidos quite well, after having photographed two weddings there last year and another one the year before. It is one of my favorite wedding venues in Lisbon, for several reasons: the location, the view, the historic library in golden tones and the rooms with very high ceilings and lots of oil paintings on the walls. The rooms are big enough to feel comfortable but now too big.

A wedding at the Red Cross Palace

I’ve photographed several weddings at the Red Cross Palace, and I never get tired of this venue. It’s one of the most stunning wedding locations in Lisbon, and in 2025, it remains one of the top choices for couples looking for a mix of history, sophistication, and romance on their big day.

Inês and Eduardo’s wedding was the perfect combination of tradition and fun. The ceremony took place in the stunning library, surrounded by old books and the warm golden glow of the decor. The dinner was held in one of the grand halls, with live music and an incredibly lively atmosphere.

And of course, the party was epic! Between toasts, dancing, and so much joy, this wedding was the perfect way to wrap up my 2019 wedding season. But if there’s one wedding I’d love to go back in time and photograph again, it’s this one!
