A Vibrant Wedding
Breaking away from Traditional Wedding Themes
Seven years of love and commitment culminated in Reuben’s proposal, setting the stage for a wedding that would reflect the unique essence of their relationship. As we embarked on planning, our focus was on creating a vibrant and unconventional celebration that deviated from traditional wedding norms, mirroring the colorful tapestry that was our journey together.
Personalised Groom Gift
As I prepared to take Reuben’s hand and seal our love, I wanted to make this moment truly unforgettable. So, I surprised him with a heartfelt voice recording of the iconic song ‘Love You Till the End’ by The Proclaimers. Our intimate ceremony took place on a picturesque dam, surrounded by loved ones who had gathered to witness our vows being exchanged.
A touch of personal flair was added with my mother-in-law’s exquisite handiwork – the bridesmaids’ dresses in an array of colors perfectly complemented the groomsmen’s bowties, creating a visually stunning harmony that reflected the beauty and uniqueness of our love story.
Walking the bride down the aisle
This poignant quote by Renthia highlights a unique aspect of her upbringing, where two men played a significant role in her life. The phrase ‘gave me away’ takes on a different connotation here, as it’s not about abandonment or relinquishing responsibility, but rather an acknowledgement of the dual support system that nurtured her growth.
Capturing Memories
What truly impressed me about the photographers and videographers was their exceptional ability to put us at ease. Deon Coetzee, our lead photographer, and his team demonstrated a keen eye for detail, capturing every moment with precision. Their greatest gift, however, was gifting us timeless memories that will continue to bring joy in years to come.

Wedding Wine Fountain
The evening’s ambiance was elevated by a sophisticated wine fountain, while handcrafted candles, carefully prepared for our pre-wedding photoshoot, added a personal touch to the gifts. A special memorial frame served as a heartfelt tribute to those who couldn’t be physically present but remained with us in spirit, their love and support deeply felt.
Unique Wedding Cake
The vegan culinary experience at our event was nothing short of extraordinary, with 172 delighted guests leaving the sumptuous feast without a single crumb or bite left behind – an impressive feat considering only three attendees were vegan. To add to the delight, our wedding cake took on a unique form as a majestic watermelon tower, while sweet treats like rich vegan chocolate brownies and tangy lemon meringue desserts further satisfied palates.
Flower-Decorated Chandelier
It was a night to remember when Reuben unexpectedly paired his outfit with green, matching the iconic Cutlass Supreme’s classic color. The evening’s festivities got underway with our first dance, set to Metallica’s powerful ballad ‘Nothing Else Matters.’ As we twirled beneath the majestic flower-adorned chandelier, the atmosphere was electric and the memories unforgettable.
Magical Wedding Day
As we wrapped up the vibrant color run, Reuben and I stole away for a tranquil moment on the lush grass to relish the enchanting day. Refreshed and revitalized, we rejoined the celebration, taking the time to express our gratitude to each guest before bringing the night to a close. The next morning, we savored a delightful vegan breakfast, the perfect culmination of our unconventional yet unforgettable celebration of love.
