Take Our Word:

Stick to pale tones to create a calm milieu but add a bit of fire by choosing one bold colour and accessorise with a multitude of candles.

The Story:

Irish based Katherine and Steve knew that their South African wedding was to be celebrated in an ocean front setting. Together with the beautiful seaside venue, it was paramount to incorporate modern yet vibrantly coloured décor elements that represented the joy of the day. The look we created embodied effortless glamour with a hint of modern simplicity. A bridal car chauffeured the couple to their seaside church ceremony, followed by pre-drinks to live Jazz music. Once everyone had sufficiently enjoyed scrumptious canapés the main meal was served at intimate, candle lit tables in the exquisite dining room overlooking St James’ rugged coastline. As the sun set behind the mountains this group of hand picked friends and family toasted cheerfully and enjoyed each other’s company until late into the night.

From exquisitely designed stationery to use of delicate purple orchids with a large array of candles, a uniquely vibrant ambience was created.
