We adore every wedding we feature here on SBB, but some of them really lodge themselves in the heart and memory, and I have a feeling that today's is going to be one of those. Especially if the heart palpitations I had when photographer Fiona Clair sent it over for the first time are any indication. Let's start with the obvious: Nita's incredible, whimsical, champagne-coloured, sparkle-encrusted, floor-length-sequined wedding gown by Stefania Morland. Because it. is. breathtaking. And I especially love that she's paired it with an over-the-top rustic ceremony headdress, and a more subtle (but just as pretty) version for the rest of the day. For me, everything else kind of flows from there - soft candlelight, elegant table arrangements (including low topiaries and high statement towers of tulips, all in modern black glass and crystal), a composite bouquet, the palette (black, white and gold with a touch of purple), calligraphed place names, a gold and white cake. And all looking like a Vogue spread thanks to the gorgeous photos of SBB fave Fiona Clair. Take a deep breath, and dive on in.

The Venue Advice for Future Brides & Grooms
Don't stress it, it is fun and remember to enjoy it! As soon as you have a guest list, wedding venue, church, the wedding arrangements are done!
While growing up in Stellenbosch, whenever my family had something to celebrate or we were just looking for an excuse to have bubbly, we would end up to going to Lanzerac. When we heard that they were building a new venue, with a modern yet old classic feel to it, we were interested! And the availability was spot on!
