Every girl dreams of a beautiful palace. How about pink palace? This is the second name for Palacio de Estoi in Faro. What happens when the groom wants to make his fiancée dream come true and takes all the wedding planning in his hands. Dean has organized amazing family celebration in the Palace gardens overlooking tremendous sunset over the hills. And he also decided to capture this beautiful wedding day with Faro wedding photographer.

The bride was getting ready in a private apartment in Olhao.  When I arrived to start bridal prep photoshoot, I was met by a friendly and joyful maid of honor. The bride Kitti has just started her makeup with amazing Susana Aleixo. Two ladies from B Hairdesign soon after started doing Kitti’s hair.

Soon after the ceremony the cocktails and canapes were served in the gardens. The guests greeted the newly wed couple,  and relaxed in the shadow with nice drinks. This is perfect time for candid shots and also formal group photosession.
