Wedding at Herdade da Emberiza | Helga & Daniel

It all began with a marriage proposal in a place that held special meaning for the couple, offering a breathtaking view over the Douro River. This setting, filled with significance for both of them, marked the beginning of their journey toward the altar — and an incredible day at Herdade da Emberiza.

During the wedding preparations, the couple faced a major challenge: Daniel suffered a severe meniscus tear that required surgery and a period of recovery. With Daniel physically limited, Helga took on most of the wedding planning responsibilities. It was a tough few weeks, but the unconditional support of friends and family was essential in overcoming the obstacles and keeping the dream of their wedding at Herdade da Emberiza alive.

Choosing the venue for the ceremony was the easiest decision: as soon as they visited Herdade da Emberiza, they knew it was the perfect place to celebrate their love. The natural beauty and warm atmosphere won them over instantly.

One of the biggest advantages of Herdade da Emberiza was having the guidance of Dalila Costa Carrilho, an experienced wedding planner and flower designer. Dalila accompanied the couple every step of the way, offering invaluable tips and coordinating all the details on the big day. Her presence was crucial to ensuring everything ran smoothly and stress-free.

The party was full of energy and surprise moments — the kind you remember forever. After the traditional bouquet toss, Daniel added a twist by throwing a bottle of whisky to his single friends. It sparked laughter all around, but the moment took a funny turn when the bottle hit the floor and shattered! Amid the cheers, laughs, and jokes about “bad luck” for the next one, the relaxed and joyful vibe of the party carried on into the night.
