Magical Moments

 

It was such a privilege having my daughter arrange a make up artist, take complete control and making sure that her mama is looking like a goddess.
Having my son come from Cape Town to walk his mama down the aisle.
Having a tango dance partner come to our home to snap pictures of us before heading off to the venue.
Needless to say, our entire day was special to us.

The Honeymoon

 

No! We had just bought a house and decided to renovate instead of travelling.

My Special Day

I decided to be a goddess, a movie starlit for my special day.
My dress was from "Silk Stitches", off white with a boat neck, very regal. I added elegant long gloves, wore a diamante/gold crown and pearl earrings. I have embraced my natural grey hair which was styled by "Iambrett" My makeup was done by a talented "Nonny" I wore one of my dance shoes, off white to complete my look.
