Nicola and Joe were married at Mountain View Farm in Cape Town which is a five minute drive from where the bride's parent's live. The couple now live in Abu Dhabi but wanted to return to the bride's home for their wedding. "Our wedding was loving, full and chilled", the bride explained. "We live in the UAE so this was a destination wedding for us, even though my family still lives in South Africa. Joe is from England and so we had a big crowd of our friends from the UK and Abu Dhabi too. As Joe is a firefighter we had to do some photos in the local fire station!"

Tatum and John were married in South Africa in April. They planned the wedding from London, where they now live. "Our wedding was Boho-ish", said the bride. "We really wanted the day to reflect who we are, so we didn't follow any set theme but used elements of many things that we loved. There were lots of fresh flowers, candles in jars and pretty fairy lights everywhere. We also wanted to stay true to our African roots so included elements of traditional Xhosa fabric in the bunting, napkins and blankets."

When I'm presented with a wedding where the bride rocks lace mouse ears, carries a rainbow lollipop in place of a bouquet, and her bridesmaids wear adorable little antler headbands, it's going to be pretty much impossible for me to turn down featuring it. Have you ever seen so much cuteness all in one place?! The wedding took place at Rockhaven Farm in South Africa.

Rosie and Bryce had many influences for their South African wedding, but most of all they wanted a day that was fun and relaxed and one where there was plenty of good food! "The inspiration for our wedding came from multiples sources", began the bride. "Namely; our 5 years together in Dubai, my time living and working Venice, Italy and our travels there, the countless markets we've experienced, and most importantly our upbringing. We didn't deviate drastically from the norm, but we definitely threw a celebration that was unusual in the South Africa context."

Bianca and Richard's wedding was held on Big Bay Beach in Cape Town.

Most of the reception décor was borrowed from people they knew or bought cheaply in China Town.
