Magical Moments

 

Seeing my husband cry, I know everyone expects it but I truly didnt.

Having my whole family together, and seeing members I hadn't seen in ages.

Seeing everyone putting such an effort into getting dressed up and being so happy for us.

My mom, my dad and my bridesmaids. None of this would have been possible without them.

The speeches, my 2 bridesmaids as well as my Father and husband- very emotional and special

The Honeymoon

 

We experienced sensational Thailand. It was the most amazing destination. Island hopping and snorkeling were my highlights.

Marriage Officer

This man was exceptional, such a warm hearted gentleman who made every step of the way an amazing (humerous) experience.

He really kept the ceremony light hearted and tapped into our personalities so well.

A wedding is one of those rare moments in life when you gather with all the people you cherish and, in so doing, express what it means to be in love.

My Captured Moments

Stella Uys, wow where do I even begin. Stella makes you feel so relaxed from the moment you meet her. I knew I would use Stella the moment I saw her work. All her images are timeless and she really gets down and dirty making sure she gets the best shots possible.

The Wedding Planner

Oxbow Country Estate provided us with 2 coordinators Adam and TJ. TJ ensures the bride is always happy and is willing to run a mile for you. He does the final touches and works his magic behind the scenes. Adam was our main coordinator who took us through all the steps from the first day we viewed the venue until we said I do. They were both amazing and really became part of the family.

The Reception and Entertainment

We decided dance lessons were a unessacary cost and decided to rather use the money elsewhere. We ended up totally winging our first dance ( it was probably not the best idea at the time) but man oh man was it so much fun, we really had some laughs.

DJ: Andrew from Cream Cheese

We also had Rike' the saxophonist who played during the ceremony and canapes. She is so talented, wow
