Honeymoon In The Kruger , Sheenaugh-Lee.

Hi Sheenaugh-Lee, I am getting married at Berg & Dal in April this year.
Stephen Nel has been great at organising all the details.
We are having the ceremony in the bush and then driving back to camp to have the reception at the boma there.
So excited!

CONGRATS Clairy wow I hope its going to be everything you've dreamed of and more If I may ask are you going to wear a white wedding dress??

Not wearing white or anything long as the ceremony is deep in the bush and it will probably get ruined pretty quickly! Hoping for a vintage safari theme as far as the outfits go, trying to get my partner to hurry up and get his suit made.....

Does anyone know a good bakery that could make a Crockenbouche (french wedding cake) in Nelspruit or surrounding areas. Battling to find somewhere to make the cake for the wedding and cannot transport it from JHB as it will go soggy.

I just got a thought, why don't you have a beige coloured flowing chiffon dress made not too long and then a crown made of leaves and twigs with flowers in it, your bouquet with the same materials and no shoes just have ribbons tied around your feet.
As for a cake have you tried Google maybe it will pick up something that will be close enough for you that when you do transport the cake from their it will be ok by the time you get to B & D?

EcoJ you forgot to say.....and I will put a flower in my hair in honour of the occasion
Jokes aside, if Ecojunkie is your guide you'll have a fabulously interesting drive

Hi!

I'm also getting married in Kruger next month. Stephen has been fantastic in getting everything organised for us as well. we are now just finalising the last few things... Any advice on flowers? We are having something simple, but want to put a bunch of flowers on each table. Has anyone used a florist in Malelane?

Congrats I hope your wedding will be all and more that you want it to be

Hi Nrijntjies and a warm welcome to the forum!!! I do hope you'll have a stunning wedding!!!

Do have a look at Blusing Bride Proteas.......it's a real stunning small flower and will keep well without water.

I'm not sure if they are in season though.



Can't help with a florist in Malelane, but will keep my ears open.

Hi Nrijntjies
I am going to get my sister to do the flowers, she used to be a florist. That being said we are going to just use Proteas as they will survive the journey from Joburg and last until the wedding. Good luck for your big day!
