On September 20, 2019, we got married in a open-air chapel surrounding by trees.
"Die Woud" just outside Caledon was our choice of venue. We both love earthly simplicity and nature, so the venue fit perfectly with who we are.
The day itself flew by. The love we experienced on our wedding day was indescribable. So many precious moments we could share.
Yes, we spend 12 days in Bali, Indonesia at Hyatt Regency Hotel.
The color scheme's inspiration came from my favorite flower, a protea. The colors were a mix of pink shades, rose gold and navy. I didn't really have a specific idea for my wedding dress and started searching for the perfect dress a month before our big day. I decided on a romantic dress from Oliveli with lots of lace to further emphasize the beauty of the forest. The end result was beyond my wildest dreams. Hair and make up was done by the very talented Leoume Vos.
Our service providers were top notch - we couldn't have asked for better service and the relationships we have created through it are very special to us. .
