Dominique and Shaun - The Wedding ......

On Saturday 25th September
Dominique and Shaun were joined together in holy matrimony ......
The venue was awesome, the pastor gave a truly lovely message and the food was simply delightful....



 Yolandi and NJ
Yolandi was one of the bridesmaids
 Nelson and Chantal ...
 Yolandi and NJ
 Janine and Andy
Cute .....
 The two brothers ...
So different and yet so similar !!!!!!
 Without the smokes but still .......
 Dad and Mom du Toit
 Jonathan ... the little brother .... not so little anymore
 Mr and Mrs Alexander ...
 Dominique and Shaun have been waiting for this moment for such a very long time
and finally the day had arrived .... the vows made ...... the rings exchanged
So happy ...
 Love this one .....
 Just us ......
 And some more of us .....
 The venue ..... so lovely ...









 Mom and Daughter
 and again ....
 and again .....
 Ian, Dad and Andrew ...
Should have added Jonathan to the left and Andy to the right
would have completed the picture. 

 The couples first dance. ....
 The tear jerker dance ....
Ian and Dominique's dance to "You raise me up"
Was simply awesome - Charma had the same song, last year, for her and Norman's dance ...
But this was just so special - her second Dad's dance and it was so beautiful ......

 And Janine caught the flowers..........
 Doesn't she look good as a blond again?????????


So on Friday morning, we raised ourselves early, after only a couple of hours sleep,
attempted to put some order into our home after the 21st, lost some of the music deco and then packed and went off to Jhb for the wedding. 
Could simply not not miss the wedding.
So all in all, we had such an action packed week, never a dull moment .......
Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, but everything that was important and needed to go right - was perfect ...... and that made this crazy, hectic, eventfull week, so very worthwhile and memorable ....

Thanks for posting those pics. Chantel looks absolutely stunning! I can tell her boyfriend is IN LOVE (do you blame him?!?)
Looks like a lovely wedding.
I remember playing with Yolandi at your house. She spoke afrikaans and I spoke English but "hey" we didn't care.

An outdoor event space like this is just perfect for a perfect wedding. This post is amazing and everybody looks stunning here. I am also planning to start a blog and write some good blogs over there. My sister is getting married and I shall write about that on my first blog. It was lovely going through this one.

25th Anniversary Celebrations!
