The weather turned out to be amazing. The ocean on top of dune was stunning. The light sea breeze was absolutely perfect, and the tears that rolled down my Sheldons face was incredibly beautiful. Was magical walking Barefeet down the isle to be next to him.
We are only going in December. We decided to make a tick on our bucket list together. We are going to Finland, to go and see the Aurora lights is a glass igloo, while sitting by the fireplace drinking red wine.
My hair and make up was done by Marnel Toerien. I’ve never looked so beautiful, when I saw myself in the mirror for the first time, I started crying. She was so much fun.
My dress was handmade by Estelle Dunhauser, my lace came from Spain. She actually made my matrix farewell dress for myself and my sisters. She’s been a family friend for years, when she gave me my dress she said “ it’s like a made a dress for my own daughter “.
My Jewelery was crystals and pearls. The lace in my dress was also crystals and pearls. My wedding was on the beach, so I rocked it Barefeet the hole night. My feet was sooo dirty the next morning. My nails was done by Tammy Taylor, with stunning art work. Ring fingers said I Do, Mrs and our initials on my other fingers. It looked stunning.
Being a part of your celebration in some small way makes my work so much more rewarding.
My venue was in Yzerfontein, venue called Strandkombuis. It’s was a beach wedding. My guests stayed at the venue, the rooms was not the best, and the venue didn’t provide a cleaning service or daily clean towels which was very upsetting. But the food was absolutely delicious. We both always said we wanted a beach outdoor wedding. And it turned out to be the best.
I went for a wash and blow at Megs Hairsalon in Yzerfontein, and they were so great. Got a hair treatment for some extra softness. Hairsalon was breathtaking, and the head massage was just why I needed. I got a facial and a pedicure tan Tammy Taylor in JHB, before we flew to Cape Town for the wedding.
All my flowers was all white orchids from Holland, and white roses and white lilies from Cape Town. I also added some ivy leaves for a touch of green. The hole white outside tent was lit up with fairy lights and purple park van lights, it looked like scene from a fairy tale. I also had a cartoonist to draw cartoon pictures of my guest and fire dancers for entertainment. My flowers was done by Karen from Flowers on the Stoep. All my furniture was hired from Baie Goeters and Makiti. We didn’t use any items from the venue as it all was a bit outdated and dirty. We hired everything in new. It all looked so beautiful. Breathtaking actually.
