Wedding at Our Quinta, Portugal
Documentary Wedding Photography & Videography
This wedding at Our Quinta in Portugal was joyful, unconventional, and deeply personal — shaped entirely around connection rather than tradition. With around fifty guests and two days of celebration, the experience felt more like a gathering of friends than a formal event.
The celebration began the day before with a relaxed pizza party, setting the tone early: easy conversations, shared laughter, and zero pressure. On the wedding day itself, preparations remained calm despite passing rain, giving way to a ceremony and celebration that unfolded freely and without restraint. From playful rituals to spontaneous moments of chaos and joy, everything felt unfiltered — a wedding built on trust, humour, and unapologetic happiness.
Why Our Quinta Is a Unique Wedding Venue in Portugal
Our Quinta offers an open, natural setting that encourages weddings to feel lived-in rather than staged. Surrounded by greenery and generous outdoor space, it allows celebrations to stretch across days instead of hours, creating room for connection beyond the ceremony itself.
The layout supports a relaxed flow — from preparation to ceremony to party — without separating guests or breaking momentum. Its versatility makes it ideal for couples who want to blur the line between wedding and gathering, where moments happen organically and energy builds naturally as the day unfolds.
A Calm, Documentary Approach to Wedding Photography
Nothing about this wedding followed a script — and that was the point. Preparations were unhurried, portraits happened quickly and naturally, and the ceremony embraced humour and surprise. Sunglasses, drinks in hand, songs sung by everyone present — moments were lived fully instead of being managed.
As the evening arrived, the celebration shifted into pure movement and release. The cake — made of traditional pastéis de nata — became part of the dance floor rather than a formality. Sugar icing flew, bodies moved, and joy took over. These are the moments documentary coverage exists for: real, imperfect, and impossible to recreate.
