OTHERWORLDLY

When modern boho meets classic elegance, this was the concept we wanted to bring to life. This shoot was done in the beautiful Au D'Hex Estate glass venue and deck over the dam in Wellington, South Africa. This space was the perfect setting to create this bohemian look fused with elegance.

WASTE NOT, WANT NOT

Elegant outdoor wedding reception with chandeliers and decor

For the reception, we brought in elements from our ceremony setup and restyled them in the open car park. We even made the random dirt piles part of the setting! We wanted to ensure you would see something new and exciting everywhere, so we did different setups on each table and created that masterpiece of a hanging installation. This team, together, truly created magic. I could go on and on about how amazing this shoot was but the photos and video speak for themselves!
