How did your love story begin?

 

We met in High school and couldn't stand each other. Then we became friends and that grew to best of friends. We faced a lot of challenges and still he stayed by my side. One day he said we have a choice to either date or have to change our friendship style. I couldn't imagine life with out him.

Tell us all about the proposal.

 

He did the message at the evening service, at our church. Afterwards he needed a love prop. He came and got me and then had our song play, with a slide show of our story. At the end it said "but the one thing I have never liked about you ... your surname ... can I change it?"

Magical Moments

 

The moment walking down the aisle, seeing Anthony and how I thought he looked very handsome and I was marrying him.
Our vows, they were heart moving.
Spending time with our guests and enjoying the atmosphere.

We just stayed at a Guest House for two nights, close to us. Aviators Retreat Guest House.

My Special Day

My wedding look was elegance but natural. My hair was platted on one side with a bunch and few loose strands. My makeup was done to look natural. The dress was made by my mom, mainly with a lace look.

The Venue

We got married at our church, Christian Heritage Church and then had our reception at Kleinvallei.

My Bridal Beauty Regime

I tried to be careful of what I put on my face and kept up with my exercises.

Wedding Elements

The decor was very rustic, not a lot of flowers but your more rustic looking flowers.
