WEDDING VENUE
Perched atop the majestic Magaliesberg mountains, this whimsical wedding photoshoot unfolded at the breathtaking Steynshoop Mountain & Valley Lodge. The venue’s natural beauty was perfectly harmonized with its deep emerald and burnt orange hues, creating a visual symphony that blended seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. As a luxury country hotel nestled within a game farm, Steynshoop evokes an ‘Out of Africa’ charm, where romance and tranquility converge.
The picturesque chapel, captivating wedding photos, and elegant banquet in Harmony Hall all converge to create the ultimate celebration of love on your special day.
WEDDING DÉCOR
As the mastermind behind this Sun-kissed Autumn styled shoot, The Hanging Inspiration brought a crucial element to the table – décor. To them, it’s not just about adding some visual flair, but rather about completing the overall aesthetic of your special day.
For this particular setup, they expertly combined Macrame Chandeliers with gold candlesticks, emerald green and burnt orange napkins, and even incorporated macrame name tags from Skoonsus to create a seamless blend with the rest of the theme. The result is a truly Bohemian-inspired atmosphere that exudes relaxation and effortless elegance.
AUTUMN WEDDING FLOWERS INSPIRATION
The Bohemian chic wedding bouquet at Die Bloemhoek features a stunning combination of wildflowers, lush greenery, and white king protea. This enchanting arrangement perfectly captures the essence of a relaxed and peaceful celebration. The eclectic mix of multi-hued flowers beautifully complements the rustic setting, creating a harmonious blend that effortlessly brings together gold and copper accents in the table setup.

Meanwhile, the pièce de résistance – the wedding cake – was crafted by Sweet Joy – Wedding Cakes. This stunning masterpiece drew inspiration from the macrame chandeliers’ intricate details and incorporated a bohemian flair through hand-piped patterns on the burnt orange hexagon tier.
The sugar flowers that adorned the cake were meticulously hand-crafted by Joy herself, adding an extra layer of elegance and whimsy to this show-stopping dessert.
WEDDING DRESSES AND SUIT
Elna’s wardrobe transformation was courtesy of New Romantics’ innovative three-part dress design. The outer mesh layer offered a decorative touch, while the ecru lace beneath added a sensual, romantic flair. Meanwhile, the detachable floral sleeves allowed for a playful, sexy look perfect for sunset gatherings by the pool. This versatility speaks to the power of creativity, as expressed by Nadine from New Romantics Couture: ‘Creativity is the way I share my soul with the world.
