We had the most beautiful day. It was the moment that every feeling I have felt, every moment I have kept close throughout the journey and everything I have imagined it to be, came together and became a reality and fell perfectly into place. One of my highlights was when our eyes locked as I came down the aisle and I was overwhelmed by the fact that I can't wait to start my life with this man that I prayed for. The rest of the ceremony was blessed.
It was and exciting, amazing, absolutely every girl's dream wedding!
It was such a special moment when my Dad saw me for the first time in my wedding dress. It is such a big moment in a girl/ woman’s life. A moment I’ve been dreaming of forever. That moment I tapped him on his shoulder, and he turned around can never be forgotten.
When my Dad walked me down the aisle and I saw my husband to be - I realised that I’ve dreamt of this day for so long. This is the moment most girls dream of, so, it was just so perfect. I couldn't imagine a better day! I married the love of my life.
A truly spectacular experience, I had no idea where we were going. I was only allowed clues and the destination would be confirmed once we were on our way.
The first stop was Colesberg we stayed in a quaint guest house called Honey Locust Guest House, a beautiful place with a classic vintage feel. The rooms are large fitted with a bit of a vintage Victorian bathroom. Very elegantly put together.
Knysna was our next stop, most beautiful Guest House on the Hill Falcons View Manor, is situated on a hill overlooking Knysna Lagoon, We had so much fun, we travelled from Knysna to Plettenberg bay just to be with the Elephants “My Favourite Animal”.
Again, we ate and drank and toured everywhere we could. We tried new meals, shopped at new places and tried new cocktails.
Our Journey then travelled to sedgefield, Oudtshoorn, Mossel bay, Hermanus “Route 62” to Cape Town and then back home in Johannesburg.
I had the most beautiful wedding dress! Unique, modern and Elegant, Classic look and feel, luxurious satin, lace detail.
I truly felt like a princess with my hair in soft curls and of course little bit of purple.
My wedding look goal was to be timeless and elegant.

Cradle Valley is a beautiful and charming wedding, romantic country overlooking the dam and horse paddocks on the edge of the Cradle of Humankind.
A tranquil water stream flows softly in the background between the venue and chapel, while our adorable ducks celebrate in the water, the stream then meets our remembrance bridge before connecting the two Cradle Valley dams
