Last month, we featured our styled eclectic story, using the Mountain Breeze forest as our backdrop. It was magical to say the least, so we can only imagine the splendour of Denton and Lorrae’s special day as it was celebrated within the same mysterious setting of De Uijlenes in Gansbaai.
I love anything to do with food {especially eating}, collecting pretty things, nesting, afternoon naps, reading and pinning. I am terrible at any kind of needle work, and I secretly envy those who can knit, sew and crochet. Freshly picked jasmin makes me happy. If I could choose my last meal on earth it, would be warm ciabatta bread with lashings of butter.
When we featured Elonah and Gregory’s colourful wedding back in 2011, we knew there was something special about this bride. It’s evident from her wedding’s gorgeous decor that she is exceptionally creative, and the bright hanging squares they made have been copied and pinned many many times.
The wedding of Cisco and Lani has gone beyond inspirational and defies the concept of conventional formalities. After a beautiful open-air ceremony at Molenvliet Estate, guests were treated to a festive ‘street festival’ in the vineyards and preceded to a reception area, filled with a variety of chic colonial inspired lounge areas.
If you haven’t heard of minted yet, they are a very hip, online stationery site that crowd sources all of their designs. That’s a fancy way of saying, each month they hold a challenge for a type of card and designers from all over the world enter. The end result is there is something for every aesthetic! We had the pleasure of guest judging one of their recent wedding challenges.
If it’s good honest fare you’re after, then look no further than Salvationcafé in Johannesburg’s trendy 44 Stanley. Self-taught chef and owner of Salvationcafé , Claudia Giannoccaro, promises to serve great quality unpretentious food “with a story to tell”. Claudia cooked her way around the world, and her globe-trotting experiences is reflected in the menu.
A wedding in Tuscany is probably one of the most visually romantic settings one can wish for. Angelika and Artur, both photographers, have known each other since childhood years. Their love for one another evolved from becoming best friends, to dating a few years later and eventually to tying the knot on a hot summer’s day in Italy.
Iaan, one of the part-time boy members of The Pretty Blog team, sent us girls a link to this video of Ingo and Carmen, earlier this week. And we have been oohing and aahing ever since. So we thought we would play nice and share this gorgeous video with you.
