Wedding Gallery

 

My Special Day

My whole look was very natural and not over done..I tried to look as natural as possible. My hair was done up in an up style. My make-up was very natural. My wedding dress tight fitting, but still very flattering.

The Venue

Got married in Port Elizabeth. We had the ceremony at St Marks church. Our reception was at the Milestone in Port Elizabeth.

My Bridal Beauty Regime

I had no bridal beauty regime. I didn't think it was necessary to change myself as I tried to remain as natural.

Wedding Elements

My décor was very vintage and wad done through the Milestone venue. My grandmother was in charge of my flower arrangements. It was all very beautiful.

My Groom And His Groomsmen

Myself and my husband put there outfit ideas together. They wore Navy chino pants, white buttoned up shirts, homemade bow ties and hanky's. The finished the look off with navy suspenders, and brown shoes and belt.

Beautiful Bridesmaids

My bridesmaids wore a rustic pink infinity dress wrap around.

No, I made use of my family to assist me and make this day possible.

Wedding Transport

This was quite a struggle, we battled to find wedding transport.. but we ended up making use of my fathers vehicle.

Food & Cake

My aunty made our wedding cake. I have attached a picture of the cake. We decided to have in house catering done through the venue. Our menu was spectacular. All our guests complimented us on the food.

Wedding Stationery

My sister in law and mother in law.

The Reception and Entertainment

We had my cousin stand in as our DJ/lighting guy. He was amazing and we couldn't thank him enough. My sister in law taught us how to dance. I am absolutely useless when it comes to dancing.
