Magical Moments

 

Oh what a wonderfully, blessed and amazing day (and weekend)! No words could describe just how perfect every single thing was... and the build up and preparation was so blessed - in ways no one could ever understand. We had the BEST wedding venue with friendly, sufficient and helpful staff and BEAUTIFUL views. Our videographer and photographer captured the best moments of our wedding and the guests enjoyed every minute of it. When the clock struck 00h00 the bride celebrated her birthday as an extra to the wedding and we danced away until 3h00 and some guests even later.

The Honeymoon

 

Unfortunately not.

My Special Day

Reserved Decor - Perfect, perfect, perfect!! The smell of forest when we walked into the venue was devine. The bouquets were all and more I expected and everything was just perfect.
Lapeng Guest Lodge - No words to describe how amazing this venue and its staff were. I actually have no words that could describe this place - and that is a good thing!!
In Abundance Photography - The best!! I would have never ever settled for any other photographers, and the proof is most definitely in the pudding or rather, the photos!!
Unmissable Make Up - Make up was done to the tee, exactly what we asked for and it looked stunning!
Hair Patio - Again, exactly what we asked for. The hairstylist also incorporated a bit of fun into the designs and we were super happy!
Behind the Vows Videography - Kenneth... what to say!! He really went the extra mile, even more!! He made the bride's dream of having a wedding video, come true and then made the video EXTRA special and oh how gorgeous it is!!

The Venue

Lapeng Guest Lodge - I repeat... No words to describe how amazing this venue and its staff were. I actually have no words that could describe this place - and that is a good thing!!
60 guests stayed over at the venue from the Friday to the Sunday, the wedding being on the Saturday. The other guest made alternative sleeping arrangements.
