I got to know Nicola and Steven a little better after their engagement shoot a few months ago. I got so many comments after that shoot because of the little Lego men they used to hold their engagement ring. I knew then that their wedding was going to be special, and it was exactly that.
They are a little quirky and they brought all those elements into their day. They made their wedding about their favourite people and all the things they love. Lego and superheroes being 2nd on the list, to each other and their guests.
The reception was held at Jonkershuis, Groot Constantia, the oldest wine producing estate in South Africa and also one of the most beautiful. With the help of the talented Wendy at Vanilla Rose CT they made the restaurant look even more magical. I especially loved the origami birds floating above the dance floor. They also had so many suprise elements for their guests. A caricaturist , he drew the most amazing caricatures of the guests throughout the day. Lawn games. A polaroid photo booth. Fingerprint balloon painting, the list goes on. I think you need to have a look at the photos, they depict a day filled with love, fun and creativity. Thank You Nicola and Steven for such a brilliant day.

This is superb!! 🙂 Thanks so much Jilda, you have captured our big day and so many awesome memories perfectly! We are thrilled with these beautiful photos (love the lego pic, haha) and we have received so many compliments so a huge thank you! We had the most amazing day (even though it flew by so quickly!) and a perfectly relaxing honeymoon. We wish we could go back and do it all over again!!
Dearest Jilda. You could make a blank space look beautiful. Thank you for treating my work to your amazing talent! You’ve made me feel proud of myself…and that takes some doing (Ask anyone who knows me)! xoxo
