I was ready for the service on time, we had to wait in the car for all the guests to take their seat, I loved spending that moment with my brother (the driver), my dad and my two bridesmaids, my twin sister and a dear friend. (some jokes were shared).
I loved walking down the ile taking the grooms hand and making the promise to my groom that I will be with him till death do us part. I felt so close and connected with him. I felt God's presence during the entire ceremony. Another precious moment was when the pastor blessed us it drizzled softly. There was also a rainbow outside!!
My best memory was when we went to do the couple shoot. We had so much fun.
We went to Thirsty Fall near Magaliesburg for the first three days, for the next five days we went to Magoebaskloof Adventure chalets and the last five days we went to TiruLodge at Mabilingwe Nature reserve.
I went for a very natural look. a look that would represent me as everybody knows me in everyday life.

We got married at Die Randjes venue. This venue is situated about 30 km from Rustenburg on the R30 road. This is a farm venue. Amazing view of the mountains. Far from the rushing traffic of town. a venue for nature lovers.
Our guests stayed at several locations including:
1) Die Randjes Guesthouse;
2) Kareekloof Game Farm;
3) Protea Hotel;
4) Several other locations near the area.
I went treatments at Placecol Jacaranda centrum.
The decor was rustic and natural.
