Zelda

Hi, I'm Zelda. Growing up surrounded by strong, independent women, I've been instilled with the values of strength, confidence and determination. They taught me to be proud of who I am and what I have. I'm a free-spirited individual who loves to celebrate life's moments with loved ones. My grandfather showed me what it means to be loved deeply, and after believing true love might elude me, I've found my missing piece- someone who shares my zest for life and loves me for who I am. Together, we're creating unforgettable memories and living life to the fullest.

Willie

Hi, I'm Willie- a driven individual with a heart of gold. I'm passionate about my work and thrive on interacting with others but don't get on my bad side- I'm fiercely loyal and protective of those I care about. When I first met Zelda, I knew I had to make her a priority. Every night, after a long day of work, I'd visit her- no matter how late the hour. I was drawn to her energy, and before I knew it, I was hooked. I'd see her every day, and that's when I realized- I'd found someone special.

Our love story

First date

Their love story began amidst chaos, with obstacles threatening to derail their relationship before it even started. But Willie and Zelda were determined to make it work. Their fist date was far from traditional- a night out with mutual friends, surrounded by laughter and music. Yet, in the midst of that lively gathering, Willie knew he'd found his soulmate. He took a chance and proposed to Zelda that very night. Though she said no, deep down, she knew she wanted to spend forever with him. 

Engagement

The engagement was a Christmas morning surprise that didn't quite go as according to plan. Zelda accidentally opened the wrong gift, revealing the stunning engagement ring inside. The room fell silent as they locked eyes, both in shock. But, then, simultaneously, they burst into laughter. The tension was broken, and the moment become genuinely ‘them’. Willie seized the opporyunity, took the ring back, and asked the question that would change their lives forever. It may not have been the proposal he envisioned, but it was perfectly imperfect- a beautiful reflection of their relationship.

Wedding events

Nestled in the secluded Kromdraai valley, built on a 50 hectare estate, lies our beautiful and exclusive Venue in South Africa's well known world heritage sites. The river meanders under big old trees and majestic cliffs that form the backdrop of our beautifully landscaped gardens.

"I swear I couldn't love you more than I do right now, and yet I know I will tomorrow."
