Magical Moments

 

To have had all our loved ones celebrating such a special day with us. We are grateful to have such an amazing circle of friends and family! One of my bucket lists was to have my grandparents at my wedding and it really meant a lot to me to have had them there. Sounds cliché, however not many people are so lucky and blessed to have a family and good friends.

The Honeymoon

 

Yes, we traveled to Stellenbosch, Hermanus, Kakamas, Bloemfontein. We were very adventures, went kayaking, zip lining, horse riding, wine tasting, off road quad biking and so much more.

My Special Day

I am a less is more kind of girl, vintage chic was the theme, rose gold, burgundy and a touch of blush pink. My hair was side swept, lose with a bit of curls. I chose a romantic soft smokey eye with a nude pink lipstick. Jewelry from Lovisa. Wedding dress from Michelangela bridal boutique.

The Venue

We got married in Cullinan, Victorian Manor Wedding Venue, the service is the absolute best as well as the food.

My Bridal Beauty Regime

I went onto the 28 day diet, I also joined boot camp which was soooo much fun. I lost 7 kilograms before the wedding and it felt so good to have accomplished that. Due to a healthy diet my skin was looking great and there was no need for any additional treatments except my daily face routine. I also took additional vitamins which helped me stay focused and energized.

Wedding Elements

The venue was so beautiful there were no need for to much decor, and like a previously mentioned "less is more" , however I love lighting so we had plenty of candles as well as fairy lights.

My Groom And His Groomsmen

Suits were hired from Euro suit. WOW, they looked stunning !!! Groom wore a black tuxedo which was chic and sophisticated, VERY HANDSOME. Groomsmen wore a grey and black suits.
