It was a beuatiful garden wedding that was simple and elegant. I only family and the closest friends there. Luckily my sister had found the venue through one of her family friends. The weather luckily held up as the was alot of rain expected on the day.
I wore a beautiful dress that I hired from Morgan and Brown in Midrand: http://www.morganandbrownbridal.co.za/catalog/
All my hair and makeup was done by myslef and a friend. I had a team of family and friends who helped me get the dress on and who made sure I felt like a pampered bride. My beautiful daughter and brides maid wore an outfit from Wool worths in Fourways Mall, Her dress and shoes together didnt even come up to R200 and she looked too cute for words
Instead of a wedding cake, we opted for 4 dozen cupcakes. We had red velvet, chocolate, vanilla and carrot flavour cupcakes. We had ordered them from Tart at Leaping Frog on Fourways. The were absolutely perfect and all the guests enjoyed them.
My Walk down the Aisle. My eldest Brother Michael, walked me down the aisle to the song "Dont Stop Believing" by Journey. It was so funny, because he kept trying to tell me to slow down but I just couldnt wait to get to the aisle and get married!
The Marriage officer, was George van der Riet. we opted for a non-religious and non-denominational ceremony. He was very funny and the ceremony was amusing and short.
Nick and I really had fun and I laughed so much throughtout the ceremony
Our beautiful daughter, Eden, just wnated Mommy and Daddy when the ecremony was going on. She ran to us and wanted to hold my hand, as were in the middle of the creemony. It was the cutest little moment and so spontaneous. It made it feel so perfect that she was a part of it.
Our first Kiss as Husband and Wife.. we did it Twice :-)
The whole day was perfect and I could not have imagined it any other way. It was not an eloborate, crazy expensive wedding. Definitely not a Kim Kardashian wedding but It was my kind of perfect.
