A picturesque venue set in the quaint town of Franschhoek played host to their celebration and was the perfect backdrop for the winelands experience that the couple were hoping for. The venue’s secret ‘lawn courtyard’ set in the middle of the vineyards surrounded by the panoramic mountain ranges set the scene for their ceremony. With simple but bold aisle details of gorgeous King Proteas and a custom made gazebo adorned with soft voile and striking mass floral arrangements in shades of whites, and the bride’s favourite colour, duck-egg blue.

Elegant vintage décor details were featured throughout the day and added beautiful thoughtful touches. For pre-drinks the guests were offered a taste of Italy with an impressive selection of cold meats, cheeses and preserves at a Charcuterie table. A comfy vintage inspired lounge pocket was set up on the lawns for the guests to relax and enjoy a typical Franschhoek summers day. A surprise was arranged for the bride and groom by the bridesmaids, which created not only amazing photographs but also a symbolic celebration of their unity. Each guest was given a white helium balloon to release and the couple a special red heart shaped balloon.

At the reception, the tables were filled with handmade stationery items and exquisitely styled floral arrangements that consisted of soft white roses, babies breath and tulips. Wooden elements added a natural texture to the table and stylized fruit and succulents added a variety of additional colour. The couple’s monogram ‘COSA’ played as a theme throughout all the wedding stationery and was even brought through in their impressive white and duck-egg blue dessert station! 

Sabrina’s exquisite couture dress almost stole the show till the couple wowed their guests with their Latin inspired first dance, which set the party mood for the rest of the evening.
