Odette & Marthinus make such a lovely couple. I was very excited to be a part of their amazing day. From the moment I met them, I knew this would be a great heartwarming wedding. They had their wedding at Makiti Wedding Venue – a venue with absolutely gorgeous gardens which is nestled in Kromdraai Valley – on the 5th of April 2012. They decided on a peacock feather themed wedding with a turquoise colour scheme. As neither of them are from Johannesburg, friends & family came from all over to celebrate this special day with the couple. Odette looked fantastic in both her ceremony & party dress! I also love how eager all their guests were to be photographed. It’s always such a nice experience when all the guests at a wedding are there to sincerely support the couple with their big step into marriage, and this was definitely the case at their wedding. Congratulations to the both of them. It was an amazing day!
Here’s what Odette has to say about how their wedding day:
“Ever since we met, we always wanted to be different from others. We wanted our wedding to be different and special. We combined what we liked. Our inspiration came from the colours of a peacock’s feather – the blues, greens, bits of purple and turquoise was very lovely to work with. It is a possessor of some of the most admired human characteristics and is a symbol of integrity and the beauty we can achieve when we endeavor to show our true colors. Makiti, the venue we chose, was a lovely and beautiful place with a magnificent garden for fantastic photos.”
