Love in motion, even through the most challenging times.

In the fall of 2020, during the height of the pandemic, we created something magical in As Valinhas, Santo Tirso. Surrounded by nature, this unique project was designed to inspire intimate weddings filled with beauty and authenticity. Together with a team of incredible partners, we captured the essence of love in uncertain times.

If you’re searching for wedding inspiration in nature—whether it’s an outdoor setting, stunning fall vibes, or pandemic-adapted celebrations—this project is sure to spark some ideas for your own special day!

Why choose a nature-based wedding?

Especially during the pandemic, outdoor weddings became a popular choice, providing safe, open spaces and a strong connection to natural beauty. In the fall of 2020, the natural surroundings of As Valinhas in Santo Tirso offered the perfect backdrop for the concept of “Nomadic Love.”

The vibrant autumn colors, falling leaves, and the gentle light that only this season can provide created a breathtaking setting. This concept not only embraced the beauty of the environment but also symbolized love’s resilience and adaptability in the face of uncertainty.

No great project is done alone, and we were lucky to collaborate with extraordinary partners who shared our vision:

• Photography and Videography: Their work captured every magical detail, turning moments into visual masterpieces that tell the full story of the day.
• Florists: Seasonal foliage and autumn flowers were used to reflect the spirit of fall, with natural and lush arrangements that blended perfectly with the environment.
• Bridal Fashion: Flowing, ethereal dresses with light, graceful designs complemented the natural setting and brought movement to every shot.
•  Cake Design: The cake was an absolute showstopper, inspired by the autumnal palette. Featuring rich tones and intricate details, it reflected the essence of the season while being a delicious work of art that impressed both in taste and design.

Each of these partners added a unique touch to the Nomadic Love concept, creating a visual and sensory experience that will inspire couples looking for a wedding full of authenticity. And Ana brought cake for everyone 😀

Fall 2020: A Wedding in Pandemic Times

The impact of the pandemic on weddings: The year 2020 brought unprecedented challenges, and the wedding industry was significantly affected. Many couples were forced to delay or reimagine their celebrations. It was in this spirit of adaptation that the Nomadic Love project was born.

The idea of a more intimate, nature-focused wedding became more relevant than ever. The wide-open spaces of As Valinhas provided a safe, airy environment, where social distancing could be practiced without losing the magic of the moment. The natural surroundings also brought a sense of peace and hope in an uncertain time.
