We met at high school when we were in grade 8 and starting dating the following year (1999).
-
From there onwards our relationship grew stronger and stronger...
-
...and 10 years down the line David proposed while we were on a cruise with some friends just off the coast of Mozambique.
-
Our 9 ½ month engagement period was full of great excitement as a result of us knowing that after a decade of dating we were finally reaching the point where we were going to be united forever!
-
The weeks before the wedding were, however, greeted with torrential rain pour which obviously didn’t help us rest easy as we had planned to marry under the open sky.
-
God however knew how much we could handle and rain was not one of those things...
-
...so on the actual day of the wedding we looked out to see sunshine and blue sky!
-
That morning was so unbelievable relaxed and things just ran smoothly.
-
There was much laughter and excitement all round.
-
The wedding ceremony and reception were being held at Ascot Conference Centre in Pietermaritzburg which was just the most amazing venue for an outdoor relaxed wedding.
-
We were blessed to have had 155 guests attend our big day but when it was time for me to walk down the isle, the only person I was focused on was my amazing husband to be!
-
A few tears were shed but they were overshadowed by our big smiles reflecting the excitement we felt within.
-
The service was beautiful, fun and completely us, which just helped to set the tone for the rest of the day.
-
The moment of becoming husband and wife came and went so fast...
-
...yet the festivities continued onto outdoor cocktails & wedding cake and then further more onto a sit down evening reception and dancing.
-
At the end of the day, when we were reflecting on everything that had happened...
