Jess & Bonga 31 December 2011

Wow, this was a truly unique and amazing wedding. Jess – an American girl of Asian decent – and Bonga – a South African guy of Zulu descent – fell in love one day and are now a perfect example of how well different cultures can come together. It was a real celebration of culture (and there were many to celebrate) filled with a lot of happiness, colour, dancing and interesting traditions. Despite a truly torrential downpour of rain, hail and dark rolling clouds, it was a wonderful day.

Below are some beautiful pictures from Bright Girl Photography. I also just had to include a couple of fascinating shots from their traditional ceremony – enjoy!

Tasha & Jason 7 January 2012

This was such a beautifully detailed wedding, and all thanks to the multi-talented bride Tasha (whom also happens to look like a supermodel). But lest not forget her charismatic and handsome helper, Jason. These guys were hands on all the way, and Jason was by far the most involved groom I have met. This beautiful, classy wedding was a real team effort, which can only bode well for their marriage. Such a charming couple.

Here are some lovely photos from the one and only  Mr Brett Florens. (I threw in a couple of pictures from the drown the gown shoot outside of Netherwood, just for funsies)

Pearl and Allen 19 November 2011

This was a stylish wedding. Pearl was full of old-world glam and even had two different dresses! Allen was charming and handsome while the bridesmaids carried through the theme with their Jackie-O inspired dresses. A beautiful spectacle to witness, and you could really feel the love between Pearl and Allen.
