The banks of the Douro River have a magical appeal that you can only feel. Words do not do it justice. You probably have already seen a few pictures of the Upper Douro wine-producing region, one of UNESCO’s world heritage selections. And, hopefully, you have already tasted the wines: red, white and the rich and sweet Port Wine, neither of them will ever let us down.
For a wine lover, having a wedding in Douro region is the ultimate choice. It has it all: the scenery, the food (and wines, of course), the astonishing vineyard estates, the cellars, the tastings, the boat rides, the bridges. The lot!
In this video by Maria Imaginária, we follow a fun couple, Raquel and Victor, who made sure that they were getting their best friends all together for a good time before their wedding. The girls took a swim in the pool, but the boys ended up taking their play time to the actual Douro river. And what a lovely playtime it was: best friends, fresh water and majestic views surrounding them.
