Magical Moments

 

Our wedding was at a lodge in Dinokeng Game Reserve. We did set up and break down by ourselves which was crazy but on the day I just remember being completely calm even when my dress torn just before I walked down the aisle. Best moment of the wedding was when I walked out down aisle and I looked at my husband and he was crying. I felt all that love and joy he felt and I couldn't wait to marry that man.

The Honeymoon

 

No, our plan is to go to Croatia next year
