Part 1

A perfect Greyton wedding!  Greyton is probably the most beautiful  village in the Overberg Area.  It is nestled in a hollow in the majestic Riviersonderend Mountain Range in the Overberg Area.  The village is quaint and natural with mostly dirt roads but hosts many outstanding guesthouses and lodges as well having some well renowned restaurants.  The village can house more than three hundred guests per night.  Definitely enough accommodation for all the wedding guests.

Imagine inviting all your friends amd family to meet you in a quaint town for the weekend to help celebrate your marriage!  This is exactly what this gorgeous young couple did!  Friends and family came from near and far to help celebrate …and it started on the Friday evening with a big get together with Uncle Gary providing everyone with his delicious potjie.  On Saturday morning, family leisurely strolled through the picturesque town of Greyton ..enjoyed a leisurely breakfast and sauntered through the local market while the Bride and her bridesmaids enjoyed a morning to themselves being pampered!  The reception was held at the quirky Searle’s Trading Post in Greyton and the decor style was eclectic with the only theme being “Green” …very different and interesting!  One of the best reasons to consider getting married in Greyton is the beautiful little church which is perched on the hill a few kilometres outside the town!  It has the most gorgeous backdrop you can imagine!  I was really spoilt at this wedding …not only are Cands & Graeme a gorgeous couple, with a warm and welcoming family …but the town was a magnificent backdrop to this beautiful wedding!  If you have never been to Greyton ..do yourselves a favour and go treat yourselves to a weekend there …you will be glad that you did!  Part Two can be viewed here!

Part 2

Searle’s Trading Post was the venue for this splendid wedding.  Searle’s Trading Post is an upmarket trading post and country wedding venue in the quaint Overberg mountain village of Greyton.  Searle’s Trading Post has lovely ambience and slightly eccentric feel but is a very interesting and quaint trading post.  The bathrooms are absolutely decadent, I could have done the whole bridal shoot in the bathroom!  It was definitely an interesting wedding venue location.

Part two of the Getaway Weekend Wedding!  A stunning way to get your friends and family away for a fun break and a glorious celebration!  Greyton was a gorgeous backdrop to a beautiful wedding!  Searle’s Trading Post was a fun and eclectic choice for a wedding venue …and really set the mood for a great evening of festivities …even the local artists tried to gatecrash to join this party!  For my part …I totally enjoyed being part of this wedding …firstly, I met up with my friends Brenda & Gary who are the Candice’s aunt and uncle …I hadn’t seen them in too long a time ….and it was great to spend the Saturday morning catching up and getting to meet the rest of this gorgeous and welcoming family!  It was also great bumping into my previous clients, Sarah-Jane & Bruce ..enjoying a well deserved break from parenthood but knowing that Troy was being looked after by doting Grandparents!  I must also mention what an hilarious breakfast we had on the Sunday morning with one of Candice’s friends, Cilma & her husband at the Old Potters Inn ….definitely a breakfast to give us the giggles!   And finally I also got to enjoy an away weekend with my hubby to celebrate our wedding anniversary too!  Thank you Candice & Graeme for choosing me as your wedding photographer …It was a great honour to capture your beautiful wedding!  Part one can be viewed here!
