Kim & Marc pulled together this stunner of a wedding in just 3 months - with the help of their awesome friends and family :) The number 1 thing I was struck by on the day was the sense of calm and focus in both of them - there was a slight hiccup with the timing of the decor setup, and the two of them simply took it in their stride. It's a beautiful thing when a bride and groom chooses to focus on what is truly important - their love, and the celebration of that - and let go of the small problems that happen on every wedding day.
The location could not have been more beautiful - I think I left a little of my heart in gorgeous Yzerfontein! And this stunner of a venue belongs to Marc's sister Shannon & her hubby Roy - 'WOW!' was what I kept saying upon discovering each stunning area of this property. SO much love and care went into building this place and it was beautiful that Kim & Marc got to celebrate their union in such a meaningful place :)
I love how Kim & Marc compliment each other perfectly - he's the organizer, the planner, the one who seems to have a crazy sense of adventure ;) And Kim is calm, takes things in her stride and supports Marc unquestioningly :) Most importantly - after so many years together and so many shared experiences and paths in life, these two are still clearly madly in love :)
Kim & Marc, thank you for choosing me to bear witness and capture the moments of your wedding :) Wishing you both a lifetime of the happiness, friendship and love that so clearly permeated your big day!
Love Tiffs

Where the beautiful ceremony was held :)
These guys were too cute for words - the babas are twins!
Seriously, how GORGEOUS is Kim's ring?
Kim decided to go for boots - a super smart option considering their venue and they matched perfectly with her beautiful dress:)
Kim's dress was GORGEOUS!!! Seriously, her Pronovias gown fit like a glove and you'd be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful bride :)
Something borrowed and something blue :)
Teehee, something a little saucy ;)
Kim's mom doing some last minute sewing alterations :)
Loved this idea - matching flip-flops for the bride and bridesmaids at the reception ;)
The girl's prep before is such a special time :)
The gorgeous flower girls, Neve & Molly, helped with packing the confetti.
Kim's 'reception dress' - so she could dance the night away without worrying about her train being tramped on :)
Kim did her own hair and makeup beautifully.
Gorgeous baby's breath bouquets for the bridesmaids and all the funky boots lined up!
Neve & Molly got to wear 'big girl' makeup-up - much to their excitement!

Now of course trust me to be marauding about in the underbrush without even a THOUGHT that this might be puff adder territory... Thanks guys for being brave and standing in the sandy patch :)
Such gorgeous ladies :)
One awesome family!
The Scrum ;)
The bride's mom and sister made the cake!
There were some seriously awesome speeches - laughter and tears all round!

Much bouquet excitement!
