03 Apr The Authentic Indian Wedding at Penha Longa of Nikita & Viren
July 2023 | Penha Longa & Forte da Cruz
It was in the enchanting beauty of Sintra that Nikita and Viren celebrated their love in a vibrant event full of originality, where tradition and innovation blended harmoniously.
Carefully planned by the talented Unique Dream Wedding, this original wedding in Sintra was unforgettable, with unique details that transformed the three days of celebration into a magical experience.
Nothing was left to chance.
Traditional ceramics and typically Portuguese flavours on the first day.
The butterflies on the second day.
And the incredible and unique wedding cake on the third.
There was no shortage of details that characterised this original wedding in Sintra.
The festivities began with a welcome reception at the Penha Longa Mercatto in the Penha Longa Resort hotel.
On the second day, the celebration continued with an exuberant Mehendi and Sangeet that filled Penha Longa with vibrant colours, butterflies and the contagious joy of the guests. The 14th century monastery of Penha Longa, with its unique location, its gardens and the surrounding Sintra Mountains, was the perfect setting.
Music, dancing and the soft scent of henna were ever-present as Nikita and Viren, dressed in traditional Indian costumes, celebrated with family and friends.
And then came the final day, with a splendid Hindu ceremony under a Mandap adorned with delicate flowers that seemed almost part of the majestic nature of the Sintra mountains. It was there, in the historic ruins of the Nuncio, that Nikita and Viren exchanged sacred vows. A dream setting that our team already knows so well and which always allows for the perfect union between culture and landscape.
But there was more.
After the ceremony, the couple and their guests were surprised with a magical reception at the magnificent Forte da Cruz.
In a space that needs no introduction, the party ended on a high note, with a lively dance floor. It was an atmosphere of pure joy and celebration.
An inspiring dream wedding!
