We love the style of this wedding, the little gold figurines, Baby’s-breath on the tables, and Anelle looked so pretty in her lacey dress! The Big Day | What was the most memorable moment of your wedding day? It was a thank you to his parents, a love letter to me, and he honoured my family and father who had passed away two weeks before. Don’t get lost in small things that in the end wont really matter and just stress you and your support system out.

Scott and his family left South Africa for Australia in 1990, but we remained closed friends over the next 15 years as our families traveled the world together. We lost touch for nearly ten years, but Scott’s mother and sisters came to SA for a holiday and mentioned that Scott wanted to come also. We had a private romantic candle lit dinner and after the amazing meal, just as I was finishing my dessert, Scott, to my absolute shock got down on one knee and told me he’d found the woman he must live with forever. Scott and I stood in the church and we looked out to our family and friends that we had grown up with, watching us celebrate the most special and amazing day of our lives.

This Safari Wedding styled shoot, submitted by Darrell Fraser Photography, was inspired by the African bush with all its splendorous wildlife and big open skies. We asked Darrell to tell us a bit more about the shoot, shot especially for Safari Weddings.
