Magical Moments

My Special Day

I had an idea of what I wanted and it all came together on the day perfectly. My wedding dress was bought from Wedding Connexion, a beautiful Morilee designer dress. I had two pairs of shoes that I wore on the day, a rose gold Forever New pair of heels as well as a pair of silver heels from Steve Madden. My hair was done by the lovely Chrislene from Harringtons and my makeup was done by the talented Mary from Makeup by Mary Carletti. My jewellery was very minimal, consisting of a beautiful bracelet my husband surprised me with on the day and a pair of earrings that are my moms.

The Venue

We got had our reception at The Hyatt Regency in Johannesburg. It was amazing, yes some guests did stay the night. We had a complimentary bridal suite.

My Bridal Beauty Regime

I tried to work out and stay healthy as much as possible, I did get eyelash extentions leading up to the wedding. I didnt change anything about my normal skin routine.

Wedding Elements

Our decor, flowers and furniture were all put together by the wonderful team at Seating Plan. They put everything together effortlessly.

Beautiful Bridesmaids

My bridesmaids wore dusty pink dresses with added rose gold sequins. They were each made according to the style the bridesmaids chose. They were from Wedding Connexion

Marriage Officer

We were married in the Maronite Catholic Church by the wonderful Father Pierre Chemaly.

My Captured Moments

We had 2 photographers and 1 videographer on the day from Flare Photography.
We also hired a photo booth that allowed our guests to take pictures throughout the night.

The Wedding Planner

The person who planned each aspect of our special day was my mom. She outdid herself and made it a lot less stressful for me. She organised everything for us.

Food & Cake

The Hyatt Regency has their own amazing chefs that made all the food for the wedding, they made exceptional starters, mains as well as incredible deserts.
Our cake was made by the lovely Chiara of Serendipity cakes. She captured everything I envisioned even down to the model boston terriers I had asked for the cake.

Wedding Stationery

We had all our stationery printed and designed by Little things Johannesburg, I did create my own monogram that we carried throughout the wedding theme. From the invites to the dance floor.

The Reception and Entertainment

Weeks prior to our wedding we did take dance lessons from the lovely Martha at Dancemore studios, she helped us perfect our dance to our song. Our sound and lighting was done by our DJ, the incredible Joe Ebersey, he definitely got the party going and all the guests on the dancefloor.
