Magical Moments

The Honeymoon

 

We are yet to go on honeymoon, we had a short 4 day stay at KolKol near Botriver which was stunning and so relaxing ❤️

My Special Day

I wanted a very natural and romantic fairytale look.
My dress was designed by the most amazing Charlotte Francina, she was a gem from start to finish! She was amazing at interpreting my vision and making it a reality! She also went the extra mile and made me the most beautiful garter.
For hair and make up I wanted a soft and elegant look, and Algria Ferreira and Jeanette Genis were just the team to make me look exactly how I envisioned.
Jewelry was very simple, I wore pearl earrings that I have owned for many moons and on the day my father gave me a necklace given to my gran by my grandfather on their 25th wedding anniversary, I wore this around my wrist, this was a super special gesture as the number 25 is quite significant, the 25th being our wedding date and the day we met 5 years ago.
Shoes were from Witchery and were so comfortable.
Bridal and bridesmaid robes were made by vows bridal, they offered a great, fast and efficient service ❤️
