Zoe & Johnny

Woweeeee, we have been SO excited to share this wedding!
Since the very first meeting, sipping a Vida iced-coffee with these two lovelies, it was obvious that this would be a wedding to remember. Then came their super rad engagement shoot and the excitement grew! And then on to their wedding.
We loved…pretty much everything! But here are a few special mentions:
The venue! I think it is safe to say we have found one of our new favourite venues: De Uijlenes in Gansbaai is amazing! From the forest ceremony, to the post-ceremony picnic, to the barn reception, everything was perfect. And what is more, there was affordable accommodation on the farm for all the wedding guests, so everyone could stay and celebrate as late as they wanted and all have breakfast together the next morning. Stacey, the wedding coordinator at the venue was a dream to work with too – so sweet and helpful. Zoe and Johnny were only the 3rd couple to have their wedding here, so any other prospective brides and grooms better get in there while they can – this place is going to book up fast!
The gorgeous bridal party – every one looked amazing, from the bridesmaids in their bohemian-inspired dresses, the groomsmen in their relaxed country attire, to Johnny’s super styling Country Road suit and Zoe’s one-of-a-kind wedding dress, made by a talented friend as a wedding gift, this was one good-lookin’ entourage!
The people! Everyone at this wedding was just so darn lovely – Zoe and Johnny have clearly surrounded themselves with some very special people.
The music – we have heard some pretty terrible, cheesy wedding DJs in our time, but DJ Chopper was awesome! We couldn’t believe our ears when we heard bands like Mumford and Sons, Arcade Fire and the Black Keys coming out of her speakers. Pure class!
Real emotion. And this folks is what it is really all about – a wedding bursting at the seems with emotion.
Thank you Zoe and Johnny, from the bottom of our happy hearts.
Finally, on to the photos.

Oh my word – how gorgeous is that dress!! And Japanese folklore has it that if you’ve folded a 1000 origami cranes together a couple will ALWAYS have good fortune and happiness.
