As every bride says, there are so many wonderful memories because of course this was the BEST day of my life <3 It truly was a very happy day where you could feel everyone's love for us in the air.
* My mother-in-law running around to make our day special - I literally think she ran a marathon for us.
* My dad crying when he saw me in my dress for the first time - his words being "I never understood what a big day in your life this would be until right now, you look beautiful".
* My mom, mother-in-law and sister trying to help me in my dress.
* My bridesmaids when they saw me in my dress for the first time.
* Reading Glen's letter he wrote to me how he will love me forever and treat me like a princess. He also gave me a beautiful gold bracelet that has 2 arrows pointing towards each other and engraved on the inside saying: "From this day and forever my Bella 27.11.21."
* Struggling to open champagne with my bridesmaids that the photos taken you can see them crying with laughter.
* Waiting to enter the chapel but before that all the groomsmen lined up with the bridesmaids and they said "We not looking Lechar, Glens meant to see you first but you look beautiful." They were so nervous and I thought to myself this must be bringing back memories of their own wedding day.
* Walking into the chapel and seeing Glen all handsome waiting for me and looking a little nervous lol.
* The most special ceremony, I get goosebumps thinking of when our priest friend Ryan asked everyone to stretch their hands over us for a blessing.
* The kiss - you have to see the photos to understand :)
* Pink ice-cream truck - the hardest sell Tor and Manny (our Mc's) have ever done - convincing guests to have ice-cream when it rained lol
* My father-in-law, I've never seen someone smile so much - he literally smiled from the start of the wedding till the end, I think he was still smiling the next day.
* Glen carrying me for our photos everywhere, while its raining, with an umbrella so we can get to those perfect spots.
* Our first dance - the patients Glen had to try learn this dance with me and how we aced it.
* My father daughter dances - something I will treasure forever.
* The funniest and heart touching speeches.
We started off at the beautiful Summerfields near Sabi. Glen then planned a surprise honeymoon to Mauritius however that got canceled due to flights covid and flight restrictions. So instead we went to the Midlands and stayed at Brahman Hills. We experienced fine dinning at it's best complimented with the most wonderful staff. ❤ Thank you @onzams and Peter for making our stay unforgettable. We won't forget the kindness and hospitality you showed.

We got married at Bell & Blossom. I had always wanted a forest wedding and this was the most beautiful setting that felt like you were in a forest. They had a beautiful glass chapel and a big open reception all. It was really a fairytale experience having our wedding there.
All suits came from Khaliques.
