One of the biggest highlights for me was when I realized that everything we hoped and prayed for turned into reality, everything exactly how we wanted - an outdoor fairy-tale wedding! :) Everything was outside, the reception and ceremony which made a lot of people uneasy, but actually worked out better than we could ever imagined :) I loved everything about our wedding, but my biggest highlight was walking down the isle with my dad and walking towards the man of my dreams. Promising him to stand by his side forever makes me the happiest woman alive :) :)
Yes, we went to Mauritius :) It was the best holiday of our lives!! we basically went to paradise and did not want to come back :)
I was going for Simplicity and elegance: my hair and make up wasn't done very dramatically, but natural and soft.
Detail is my middle name therefore I had loads of detail in my dress and decided to go for a rose gold high heel.
Hair and make-up - Skoonlief
Shoes - Imaani

I went for peeling every month at a medical spa which made a big difference on my face. Its very important to start doing this at least a few months before your wedding. I also did a lot of training at Virgin active and followed a healthy diet with my hubby. For stress management I also went for a deep tissue massage once every month which also helped me a lot.
Our theme was simplicity and elegance with a touch of rustic to go with the outdoor wedding style. The colors were green, brown, grey, dusty blue with red and soft pink.
I got the look from Pinterest, where the bottom part of the dress looks the same, but the top part looks different for every bridesmaid.Two bridesmaids were wearing pink and the other two dusty blue.
