Rachael and Mike travelling from the United States to Lisbon, one of Europe’s most vibrant capitals, the couple chose to begin their next chapter aboard a boat sailing along the Tagus River, embracing the romance, freedom and unforgettable scenery that only a wedding at sea can offer. Inspired by a heartfelt proposal while scuba diving near Acadia National Park in Maine, their spring wedding blended boho charm with romantic details in a palette of peach, white, pink and dusty blue. The bridal bouquet featured roses, eryngium and eucalyptus in soft white and dusty blue shades, while the reception tables were adorned with delicate floral arrangements of roses and greenery displayed in small glass vases, complemented by woven rattan accents that added texture and character to the celebration. Surrounded by sparkling waters, spectacular sunset views and the timeless beauty of Lisbon unfolding around them, every moment felt intimate and incredibly special. As the bride shared with us, «My favorite moment from our wedding was when all of our friends were dancing along with us as we were sailing the Tagus River watching sunset and the palacios from the water…». From the relaxed atmosphere on board to the thoughtfully curated details, this wedding perfectly captures the beauty of celebrating love in a destination that feels both adventurous and deeply meaningful!
