Look no further than Herdade Malhadinha Nova, a beautiful country house in the Alentejo region. This place will enchant you with its natural beauty, luxury accommodations, and personalized service.
We were so lucky to photograph a wedding at this stunning venue and we are delighted to share you more about this wedding at Malhadinha Nova in Portugal.

The Alentejo region is a hidden treasure in Portugal, with its scenic hills, vineyards, and quaint villages. It is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the tranquility and charm of the countryside. Herdade Malhadinha Nova is located in this lovely area, offering a private and cozy oasis for couples who want to have a memorable wedding in Portugal.
Herdade  Malhadinha Nova has luxurious accommodations for up to 60 guests, with a variety of villas, suites, and rooms to choose from. Each room has its own personality and style, with modern amenities and cozy touches to make you feel at home.
Herdade Malhadinha Nova has a farm-to-table philosophy, using fresh and local ingredients to prepare delicious and healthy meals. You can have a customized dining experience, from cozy family-style dinners to grand banquets, that matches your wedding theme and style.

Hans and Irene had a beautiful wedding at Herdade Malhadinha Nova, a rural wedding venue in the Alentejo region of Portugal. With the help of Rixt, a wedding planner from Trouwen Portugal, they planned a three-day wedding celebration that was full of love and joy. The first day was a welcome party where the couple and their guests enjoyed some tasty food and dancing. It was a great way for everyone to meet and mingle and to start the festivities. The second day was their wedding day, which was full of love and happiness. Joao, the videographer from Joao Rosa Visuals, captured every moment with care and skill. He made a beautiful film of the couple’s wedding day, showing their passion for each other and for life. The third day was a relaxing brunch at the pool, where the couple and their guests relaxed and reminisced about the previous two days. It was a perfect way to end a wonderful celebration of love. We were honored to photograph this wedding as a team. Unfortunately, Avieta could not join due to a recent operation. Luckily, my friend and colleague Rui Vaz Franco from Love Is My Favorite Color was there to assist me. I am very thankful for his help and friendship. This experience taught me the value of having a supportive network of photographers who can help each other in times of need.
We had a great time at Herdade Malhadinha Nova, a rural wedding venue in Portugal that offers a unique and intimate wedding experience. We are happy to have captured these memories for Hans and Irene and their families to treasure forever.
