Quinta do Jordão

Quinta de Jordão is located in Vila Nova de Gaia, next to the Arrabida Bridge and only one minute from Porto. This reminds us of an enchanted forest with its heady green landscape and avenue of linden trees. The farm has a beautiful lake, a chapel and a wonderful garden: the Tenda space, the avenues of the Tilias and the Botanical garden. All in all it’s a spectacular space to spend your special day.

Quinta d’Alvre

This venue is surrounded by incredible beauty and we couldn’t recommend it more. The tranquility and scenery make for a perfect wedding. It is located deep in the hills of Santa Iria in Gondomar but can be accessed extremely easily. Three reasons why we think it’s the best location: two large and wonderful halls, huge gardens and its natural waterfall. This Quinta also works with AmbientaEventos that will create the wedding that suits you the best.
