Nicole and Michael are two of the nicest people I’ve met. Their wedding was on the 2nd of May 2014 at the magnificent Shepstone Gardens in Johannesburg. Their day was perfectly planned and it was fantastic to be a part of. Mr & Mrs Young both looked magnificent and I had so much fun working with this sweet, down-to-earth pair. Some of my favourite parts of their wedding day was all the handmade touches to the decor and wooden signage in the venue’s gardens; the black bridesmaids’ dresses; the bride’s purple Converse shoes; and the splendid ceremony area.

MR & MRS MULLER |lombardy pretoria weddingDecember 20, 2013

Lauren and Leigh are an amazing couple – they are so vibrant and energetic together and their wedding day was filled with pure happiness. I haven’t seen so many guests on the dancefloor in a while; from young to old, all the guests went all out to celebrate this beautiful couple’s precious day. Lauren and Leigh had their wedding at the gorgeous Lombardy Boutique Hotel in Pretoria on the 26th of October 2013.

I adore all the personal touches that Mr & Mrs Muller added to their wedding day – my favourite is the heart shape (made from a piece of Lauren’s father’s clothing) Lauren had stitched onto her wedding dress as well as the exchanging of flowers during the ceremony.

How did Leigh propose?
