A Dream Proposal!
Inês and João’s story began with a proposal straight out of a movie! João planned everything down to the last detail. While on holiday in Cape Verde, he got down on one knee on the beach at Ponta Preta and gave Inês a very special engagement ring—a family heirloom hidden inside a seashell he found in the sand.
With a beginning like that, you can probably imagine how amazing the wedding turned out to be…

The Wedding at Quinta dos Machados – Planning & Emotion!
After saying their much-anticipated “yes,” Inês and João teamed up with Outlux Wedding Planner to make sure every detail was just right. Quinta dos Machados proved to be the perfect choice, offering a dreamy setting for the ceremony and a warm, welcoming space for their guests.
Of course, there were a few bumps along the way (as with any wedding!), but the final result exceeded all expectations. Dinner was served outdoors, taking full advantage of the venue’s natural beauty, and once the music started, the dance floor quickly became the heart of the evening.

Photos to Keep the Magic Alive
One thing the couple never hesitated on was photography. “The day flew by!” they told me afterward.
That’s exactly why photography matters so much! It helps us relive the most emotional moments, notice little details we might’ve missed, and hold on to the energy of the day forever.
