From Passionate Wedding Photography – “Montes Claros, a hotel tucked away in the center of Lisbon but surrounded parks and green areas is perfect for intimate destination elopement for elegant and sophisticated couple!”
“This unique bridal session reconnects with nature and took a place amongst secret garden passages, bushes, blooms and a lake with swans and ducks – in the center of Portugal’s capital city! Very well hidden on the one of the highest hills of Lisbon, the breathtaking and endlessly romantic scenario greeted us at every single step.
The play of shadows and sunbeams throughout arches of the long corridor made the bride get in deeper touch with nature and intensify unique emotions while enjoying the Earth through bare feet.”
“The tablescape on the garden stone wall was styled to evoke feelings of pleasure of all senses by using soft cotton linens with textures and naturally-scented candles with salts and herbs. The napkins were adorned with details of quartz mineral stone on eucalyptus leaf thus intensifying sense of love. Early spring bird´s songs accompanied the day! The bride felt embraced by the nature while deeply enjoying this lovely secret spot garden and the silky texture of her laced veil.
We truly hope to inspire couples around the globe to discover Lisbon secret spots and gardens and enjoy intimate, romantic, elegant and pure connection with nature and each other!”
