Sarah & Jacob - 05.07.2025

American Love at Penha Longa Resort – Sintra

Sarah and Jacob chose Portugal as the perfect setting for their destination wedding. The celebration began with a welcome party at Penha Longa Resort, at the beautiful Mercatto Restaurant, offering the most breathtaking sunset view. It was a wonderful evening to meet the couple, their families, and friends, full of laughter, great weather, and warm energy.

The next day, wedding day, brought quite a surprise! The wind was incredibly strong, and at one point, Sarah’s veil flew away. You can even see it in the photos below! Of course, we managed to catch it later, but it turned into one of the most memorable and fun moments of the day.

Their symbolic ceremony, officiated by Sarah’s brother, was filled with love, tears, and joy. Sarah and Jacob are a sweet and shy couple who trusted me completely, even from miles away. That trust allowed me to capture the real essence of their connection, emotional, natural, and timeless photographs they’ll cherish forever. These two days were organized by the amazing Ritas, Wedding Planners at Meliora Events.
