The Municipal Chamber of Ponte de Lima presents the XVII Verde Noivos, starting tomorrow, November 14th, at the Fair and Exhibition Pavilion, dedicated to the world of weddings and ceremonies.

The event, running for two days, will gather exhibitors, demonstrations, and various activities, with a highlight on the creations of two local designers from Ponte de Lima, Flávio Brandão and Elisabete Ralha. Their proposals emphasize creativity, identity, and craftsmanship.
Elisabete Ralha, creator of the brand bearing her name, will present her own bridal and ceremony dresses, featuring coordinated pieces from her 2027 collection. Fashion shows are scheduled for Saturday at 4:30 PM and 10:00 PM, and Sunday at 5:30 PM.
The creations of young designer Flávio Brandão will grace the runway on Saturday at 10:30 PM. His pieces explore tailoring, silhouette, and individual expression, notably featuring a dress entirely made of linen from THE OBLIVION collection, paying homage to the artisanal tradition and cultural identity of Ponte de Lima, as part of the 900th-anniversary celebrations of the municipality.
The program also includes a symbolic wedding ceremony, choreography demonstrations, segments dedicated to fashion and trends for brides and ceremonies, a ring workshop, cake design and sushi show cooking. Musical performances by local artists David Felgueiras, Trio Emsemble Adágio d’Lima, and Diogo Penha will also take place.
The event opens its doors on Saturday at 2:30 PM and runs until 11:00 PM. On Sunday, Verde Noivos opens at 2:30 PM and closes at 7:00 PM. The full program can be consulted online.
