MR & MRS MADLALA |thornbirds johannesburg weddingJune 5, 2015

Sazi & Daisy celebrated their union as husband & wife at the idyllic Thornbirds Centre in Johannesburg with a splendor of purple & lavender. I’ve been eager for their wedding ever since we captured their engagement photoshoot last year (click here to view their engagement photoshoot at Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens). One of my favourite memories of their day was how much everyone enjoyed themselves, almost all the guests were on the dancefloor by the end of the evening! It was a happy & beautiful celebration of two people that are perfect for each other.

What was your favourite part of your wedding day?

MR & MRS LE ROUX |kiepersol parys weddingJanuary 22, 2015

Sammy & Shaun said their vows on the 29th of November 2014 at the always majestic, Kiepersol Wedding Village, in Parys, Free State. Their day was a true reflection of their relationship as a couple: filled with elegant, graceful touches whilst still having a very comfortable ambience. Even the loadshedding during the reception went almost unnoticed – these two and their guests would not let anything stop them from celebrating their most precious day. It was an amazing fairytale day and I’m thrilled we could be a part of it!

Gabi & Andre said their vows on the 1st of March 2014 at the picturesque Casablanca Manor Wedding Venue in Pretoria. It was a beautiful rainy day and I just loved working with this lovely couple. Gabi looked amazing in her beautiful gown fit for a princess and along with their wedding theme being elegant with touches of pink and grey, it truly was a fairytale day 🙂

MR & MRS DU TOIT |kuthaba bush modimolle weddingMay 28, 2013

I really love when couples book me way in advance – it gives me so much time to get to know them. They end up feeling more like friends than clients! Madelaine & Jaun are one of these couples. I’ve been chatting to Madelaine for many months about their wedding day and she kept me up-to-date with every part of the planning process. I have such a soft spot for this beautiful (inside & out) bride and it was devastating when I heard that her father passed away just before their wedding day. I thought it was beautiful that she dedicated a very precious scrapbook to her father on the day to make sure his presence was felt. Her elegance in dealing with every and any difficult situation has given me such great respect for her.

Their vintage dusky rose wedding was held at Kuthaba Bush Lodge in Modimolle, Limpopo on the 20th of April 2013. It was a weekend affair and started with a social braai the Friday evening, their wedding on the Saturday and a breakfast buffet on the Sunday morning. We were all pretty tense when it POURED on the wedding day – now don’t get me wrong, rain can be amazing on a wedding day – but these two were hoping for a sunny day and I just felt they deserved to have this wish come true. Needless to say, it was a BIG relief when the rain stopped just before the ceremony started and we had the most beautiful golden sunlight to work with during the newly-wed session. 🙂
