Eugene & Bonita

All you need is love…..was the motto of this wedding. Eugen & Bonita were dating for over 10 years before they decided to tie the knot, or before she decided she was ready for the big step A couple like them is very unique and actually the best couple any supplier can wish for. Everything was organized from top to bottom and so perfectly. We had our own supplier table, even with a a gift for all of us. If you treat your suppliers well, they will be your best friends I can’t say enough how much we LOVE Bonita & Eugene, they are the ultimate couple and if we would have to write down what kind of couples are the best to film, I am just going to show their video in the future….And their entire family was so nice to us, what can I say. La vie est belle. The best part ever, I almost forgot, we did a trash the dress right after the first dance, the couple jumped into the Spa pool, that was so awesome!!!! To conclude, congrats Bonita & Eugene, you guys rock! Our Studio on Club buddy Christiaan David took their amazing photos. Well done, man!

Sarvesen & Luveshni

This was our first Hindu Tamil wedding and we just LOVED it. Wow, what an amazing experience to be part of, it was really such a cool vibe…all the details, the traditions, the people….I can go on and on, lets say we were overwhelmed. We already know that the Indian culture is amongst the most friendly in the world and Sarvesen & Luveshni and their entire family made us part of this spectacular day and made us feel we are part of the family, which of course, was great! As I was standing just next to the stage, I wasn’t aware of all the fire and smoke and only realized later that the incense stick was just below my tripod and I was wondering where all the smoke came from And the guru was very cool, I think you need a lot of practice to remember all the steps of the ceremony and what to burn when. All in all an amazing experience. Our studio buddy Christiaan David took the photos, what can I say, brilliant as usual.

Alan & Colette

Pretty girls surround themselves with pretty girls. We can definitely confirm this after we filmed Alan & Colette’s wedding. Wow, the bride looked like she came out of a magazine and her bridesmaids added some more attractiveness to the picture. Even Alan’s younger brother talked about the talent during his amazing best man speech. By the way, the best speech we have ever heard, this young fellow will definitely be popular with the ladies He said he wished he would be 10 years older seeing how pretty the bridesmaids were. Alan’s dad said the same thing in reverse, he wishes he would be 40 years younger What great event it was, if we quote from weddings that means it was an awesome wedding. The opening dance was epic and well executed. The venue was awesome and the party crowd was jamming to the music. Food was exquisite, well chosen and plated….as you can already read from our comments we really thought this wedding was exceptional. Also, the couple was amazing. they were relaxed, no issues and just enjoyed every single minute of their wedding day. Our good friends from Tyme Photography shot their awesome wedding photos. Well done guys, always so cool to work with you!

Thank you for everything! Alan and I are just blown away by the DVD – we can’t stop watching it and showing it to all our friends.

Ravindran & Prisha

Dear Wedding Diary, today we had an AWESOME wedding. Small, intimate, cultural with a touch of glamour. Alright, I won’t continue with the dear diary stuff, I personally never had one –  the girls did and it was very boring to read although I know i wasn’t to suppose to read it Anyway, back to the wedding, it was a cultural mix between Christian and Hindu, which I call a very cool combo. The couple kept their guest list short and sweet and made a huge success out of their wedding day. You could see they are technology geniuses, they had a live feed from Australia via skpype where Prishas sister and her family did a speech. Very cool, almost felt like an Oprah episode, not that I watch the show and therefore I won’t know anything about it:) The venue was grand, the Fairway Hotel & Spa. A world class venue, from food to service, I like! Suppliers were well chosen, sorry my head just fell of my body, got too big Alright, I am actually referring to the photographers from Fisheye. Hannie & her partner really did an amazing job, and it’s so much fun working with them. The crowd was ready to take the roof off and Ravi & Prisha truly enjoyed themselves. Another awesome December wedding!

Sa’ad & Nabeela

An extremely good looking bride makes for an awesome DVD ! This was definitely the case for Sa’ad & Nabeela’s wedding. Ok Sa’ad, you also cleaned up well.  The couple was so ready for their big day and so was their entire family. Their guest list hit the 800 mark which is pretty much the entire family and a few friends as the couple explained:) Well, I always thought I have a big family but the only way I can invite so many people is if I invite all my Facebook contacts (and some I don’t really know ) Needless to say, the event was grand, glamorous and chic. The guests were so friendly and everybody kept on complementing us on the good work we are doing – gotta love an ego booster like this. I can understand now why Nabeela and Sa’ad invited their entire family, they are really an awesome crowd. This was the first time we worked with Seybrand Cilie together and it was great. What a cool guy and brilliant photographer, after we saw the photos we immediately invited him in our hall of fame, the top photographer’s list. Our rule is simple, we need to first work with a photographer, he or she needs to be better than awesome..and if we gel well they are on our list. We only want the best for our brides so they need to have the X-Factor. Alright, I admit, I stole the term from the show, isn’t it amazing how the americans turn an old concept like pop idol, call it X-Factor, do minor changes and make a big success

Josh & Angie

Sundays are becoming more and more popular to get married. First of all, it was great being back at Oxbox Estate, what a cool venue. Because it was a morning wedding everything was relaxed and calm. The couple was ready to have their best day of their lives. Everything worked out perfectly and as you can see on the clip the wedding was a great success. The couple showed excellent taste by choosing plated food – it was devine. Their guests enjoyed the party and what better way of spending chilled sunday afternoon at a great venue, with great food and entertainment. The wedding planner Sianne from Wedding Guru did an outstanding job with the decore and making sure everything is one time. Our dreamtream was also present, so Christiaan David took their amazing wedding photos, well done Chris, solid & glamorous as usual.

James & Joanne

There are  times when a couple walks into your studio and you just connect. Well, James & Joanne were definitely this kind of couple. Needless to say, their wedding was a cool event. Before I go into more details, I need to say this, Joanne’s Grandma flew in from the States, wow she is over 90,  still up and dancing and having a great time. Isn’t that something …ok, lets get back to our superstars! Joanne was just in an awesome mood the whole day, not once did we have to ask her to smile, it was painted all over her face James is a solid guy and a perfect gentleman. The crowd was ready to take this party to the next level, and they did What a vibe the entire wedding had, with cool live house music, a saxophonist playing to deep house tunes, and a good looking singer All was perfect! Pictures were taken by the giant & amazing Michael Tree  & his team, well you could see the couple had exquisite taste!

Jordan & Andra

A lot of couples meet through friends and family…..well, Jordan & Andra’s story sounds like it’s from a movie. If you watch our little clip you’ll know why. This was one of the weddings we couldn’t wait to shoot. The couple lives in the States and we met them almost a year ago before the wedding. The ceremony was split in half, one part was Jewish, the other, Christian. We thought this was very cool, especially the ending of the Jewish ceremony is always so much fun! Andra is probably the kindest person we have met at a wedding, she was so friendly and easy going, whatever we asked for she always smiled and said:”I trust you guys!” and this felt very special. We know what we are doing and clients appreciating this makes us feel like superstars. Jordan is a fantastic guy and as easy going as Andra. Well, there you have it, the perfect match. The venue, River Meadow Manor, had a Cape Town Winery flair, and it’s in Gauteng Our good friend Michael and his wife from Glenister Photography worked together on the day with us. Having your friends working with you always makes the whole experience amazing. The photos came out really cool!

Everyone in the USA loves your work, we think you can make it big here too!

Aiden & Ezanne

When you walk into the bridal suite and the bridal party welcomes you like a superstar, you know you are at the right wedding. What an amazing couple, bridesmaids out of a Vogue magazine and a gorgeous looking bride who is just sooooo happy. A perfect recipe for a perfect wedding. The day was heating up and we all thought the sun will fry us dry but luckily the venue they choose had perfect air cons, cooling the place done The venue was Diep in die Berg in Pretoria, awesome, close by and really nice. Aiden’s groomsmen were his sisters which was really a cool idea. We got the most  beautiful shots at their couple photo shoot thanks to the brilliant photographer Rensche Mari. She is really excellent and her photos are in a league of their own.

Thanks a lot, the DVD is great!

Juan & Mariska

What a great start into 2012 with this amazing wedding. It’s so great to see when family helps out at a wedding, this makes the entire event even more special. The couple was relaxed and enjoyed themselves to the fullest. The best weddings are always the ones where the couple is just having a great time. Obviously the vintage cars the couple organized for their grand entrance and the photo shoot, was truly amazing. This was definitely the best start we could have had for our wedding season. The crowd was heating up as the DJ started his show, all in all, a wedding well done. Congratulations to Juan & Mariska!
