Summer's Eve Wedding at Nooitgedacht by Marli Koen

via

I love a good trans-continental love story, and while today's gorgeous wedding took place in the Cape Winelands, it was against the far off bright lights of Los Angeles that local boy Heinrich met his California girl! Rochelle and Heinrich decided on a destination wedding in South Africa, with a simple, elegant, country vibe, and chose New Year's Eve for their date. But instead of the kind of flashy, blingy New Years-themed weddings many couples opt for, this one was all about the understatement - white flowers, wooden tables, summery black tie attire, a meal under the trees and dancing beneath the stars. Just beautiful, and I can't think of a better way to ring in both a new year, and a new life together! Marli Koen took these truly lovely pictures of the gorgeous couple and their ever-so-happy day.

The Suppliers
Planning everything from the States was really difficult and limiting so we relied on our coordinator for everything we weren't able to do ourselves. We weren't able to do DIY so she made sure all the details important to us were there. Our photographer, Marli Koen, was also fantastic. We would like to thank her for all the beautiful memories she captured!
