In the silence of the forest it was like they were the only couple in the world. Surrounded by their nearest family Kelly and Tyrone promised themselves to each other for this life and the next.
If I’ve ever seen real life magic this day was it!
I met Kelly and Tyrone in the exact same place and around the exact same time my husband and I met… in Madagascar some 7 years ago. So when the opportunity to be part of their wedding day came up I was beyond excited.
Kelly is a dreamer and a romantic. Tyrone loves nature and Kelly. They wanted to start their lives together in a place no one else had. When I heard this I knew this day was going to be everything I love celebrating. Honest, down to earth, full of love, beautiful and most importantly just for them!
Kelly and Tyrone spent the morning getting ready together at Emily moon before meeting their family in the Tsitsikamma forest for a morning of love and vows followed by a decadent high tea and champagne.
The deep green, blue and grey colour pallet with just the slightest hints of rose gold made the décor melt into the shadows of the forest. Kelly chose not to carry a bouquet (but her lovers hand instead) and went for a beautiful grey skirt and classic top. Although she didn’t have ‘official’ brides maids we created little bouquets for each special lady there.
Once everyone had left they wandered into the forest where they shared their mini wedding cake and played in the ferns.
Kelly and Tyrone the detail and care you bought to this day are a testament to your love for each other and your families. May you never stop dreaming! May your love win over every situation or distance and may the magic of this day be with you for ever.
P.S if you would like to see the lovely thank you note Kelly & Tyrone sent us you will find it here.
