Wedding Friends embrace new faces, and on the blog today we are welcoming a brand new edition to the family. Today we are sharing the wedding of Pierre and Rouxle, a very special couple who created a memorable celebration. This wedding was shot by the loving, sweet and very talented Nadine Uys from O Three Photography. A new kid on the block, but surely one to keep an eye on. See what Nadine can offer and enjoy the inspiration from Pierre and Rouxle's Goedgelegen Wedding.

{I Propose} - Elaborate on how the two of you met or on how the proposal went down.

We met as first years at the University of Pretoria. After 2064 eventful days we got engaged on the 26th of May 2013, a weekend away to Botswana with our closest friends. He surprised me by going down on one knee just as the sun was setting over the breath-taking Botswana landscape. My ring is so special and such a blessing for our marriage to come as he designed a triple-braided cord engagement ring symbolizing God, husband and wife.

{Bride & Prejudice} - Express some memorable experiences you had during the planning.

The cohesion between two families prior to the wedding is truly something that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. The sights and sounds in the Mooketsi valley as the valley lit up for the week in preparation. The carefully selected al fresco style menu prepared by my mother in law. Childhood memories were relived as the chosen venue was the avo and mango farm I grew up on.

{My Fair Wedding} - Describe an event that you feel was unique or even funny.

Our expectations of the wedding day were simple: a never-ending feast, an informal celebration and a special day to remember where two people declared their love in front of witnesses. The day was exactly that!

{Don't Tell The Bride} - Reveal something that happened behind the scenes.

Henk, our pastor misjudged the distance to the farm, which resulted in him suiting up in an avo orchard, a few more guest followed his example soon after.

{No More Wedding Woes} - Share your wedding advice for future brides.

Enjoy everything and always remember what it is really about, celebrating love and your amazing relationship with the special people in your life. Step away, make a mental picture of the most special night of your life.
