Melissa & Andrew

Melissa "Keys", just kidding, but seriously, this bride was a true masterpiece of perfection (in all aspects!). Her kind and gentle nature was contagious, and her calm presence and giggle made everyone feel at ease. Andrew, an amazing product designer, looked at her with such love that it was clear their future together was going to be a never-ending wave of affection. The venue, Santa Clara 1728, is an architectural marvel, renewed by Aires Mateus, and dates back to 1728. The festivities were hosted entirely in the hotel, starting with an intimate ceremony in the grand hall, where guests were surrounded by a sea of flowers leading up the staircase and a dreamy blue organic display of puffs on which guests were seated. The cocktail hour was held on the patio, with a masterpiece of cake to share, cocktails, and canapes, where lush greenery surrounded the guests. The day concluded with a private and special dinner at Ceia, a very intimate and privileged experience. The decor was a true reflection of the exquisite beauty of the venue and the elegant simplicity of Melissa and Andrew. It was a day filled with love in every aspect.
