The style of Portuguese sovereign has varied over the years. Currently, there is no Portuguese monarch but there is a pretender: Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza. He styled himself following some of the ancient traditions of the Portuguese monarchy.

Yes, D.Duarte, Duke of Braganza follow some traditions of the Portuguese monarchy. And I think that in your marriage did too. It should be noted that the last kings of Portugal married in the Church of Santo Domingo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igreja_de_São_Domingos_(Lisbon)) while D.Duarte married at the Jeronimos Monastery (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerónimos_Monastery).

Amelia's white wedding dress was made of faille silk with a long train. Her lace veil was a gift from friends from France. She wore a garland of orange blossoms on her head.
