They came to sunny South Africa to tie the knot in front of some of their local family and friends, before having a bigger celebration in the UK.

Kim’s brief was to do what we do best, with a mix of yellow and soft green and to incorporate seasonal flowers and some succulents.

Thank you Kim for trusting us to meet your requirements and to create a beautiful setting for your warm and intimate gathering.

Kim asked me about the time of sunset in Cape Town for their wedding, and being the middle of winter, this was a tricky question to answer. Luckily it was a completely beautiful day with a stunning view from the lodge over Noordhoek beach.

Congratulations Kim and Adam – it was wonderful to meet you and we are so glad you were happy with everything.
