My Special Day

It's obvious we have to start with the Dress!!!!
My dress was made by Bride Zilla.
If I have to describe my dress in 3 words it will definitely be, comfortable, elegant and fun.. My dress material was Satin, Chantilly lace, Soft tulle & lace applique....it had a little "party" in the front with clear beading & crystals that was attached to the lace. At the back it had a zip & covered buttons, with this beautiful lace going downwards that mixed with the soft tulle. The style was a fit and flare.

My hair and makeup was done by SK Beauty,
My Hair was all back only with a little curl handing loose on the sides, it was full of curls and was finished off with a fish plat.
My Make-up was natural, did not really go all out, soft lipstick with a light Smokey eye.
My Jewellery was one for my Mommy to pic, so she surprised me with the most beautiful white pearl bracelet & earing's.
My shoes were(no other word) awesome, I wore my blue vellies, (Want ek is n afrikaanse meisie) with some unpaired socks … It was my something borrowed.
My Lingerie.... Our secret :)

The Venue

My had our special day at Fort Simon Wine Estate
A castle-styled venue, surrounded by vineyards.
We had the Ceremony and the Reception on the premises, the Ceremony took place in the Chapel (an old wine cellar)... I just fell in love with it the first time we visited.. The Reception was in the reception hall, surrounded with gardens and lawns, a pond.


Unfortunately accommodation was not available for the guests however there was a lot of B&B's in the surrounded areas.
