The princess received a thorough education. She spoke French, German and Italian, in all politeness and good manners, and was an appreciable music cultist. On January 10, 1723, the capitulations of the princess’ marriage contract to the prince of the Asturias were granted in Paço da Ribeira. At night there were fireworks in Terreiro do Paço, all the ships docked on the Tagus River were flagged and lit with brilliance, and there were equally bright illuminations throughout the city. The next day, the wedding was held by proxy, at the Patriarchal Church where King D. João V was proxy to as the Prince of Asturias.
