aving visited The Oaks
in Greyton, South Africa,

Robert and I knew that
we wanted to get married there

one day. The venue is set against
the backdrop of the Zonderend

Mountains, and perfectly combines
style, natural beauty and tranquility.

I wanted to have a simple yet
stylish wedding where everything

worked together to provide a
romantic and welcoming feel. The

main colours were duck egg blue
and purple. I worked with a local

company, Flamboijant, who provided
the flowers and decorations. All the

flowers were seasonal I loved the
combination of Christmas roses,

lavender and succulents, and all our
guests commented on them.

One of my favourite details
were our invitations, which were

painted by a South African painter,
Frans Groenewald. Frans uses the
