Love on the Rocks – part 3

Love on the Rocks – part 3

    Oh, you’ll say, cliche…but no… this is the real thing.  Day 3, and our guests were still ready to Rock!  We congregated on the Rocks at ‘Hottentotsbank’ on the famous 12.5km cliff path of Hermanus where our Bride and Groom tied the knot.  This in itself was a logistical challenge as there was no level surface, hence all the ladies in their flats for the ceremony.   Canapes, including freshly shucked...

From Paris with Love

From Paris with Love

  Maryke celebrated her 50th Birthday at Grootbos Nature Reserve in absolute elegance on 10th May.  Her choice was a French Affair with lots of candles, crisp and white decor. We sourced Louis XiV Ghost Chairs to compliment the Crystal and Silver table decor.  The table numbers were housed by a Fleur-de-lis stand  and Silver baroque underplates added the finishing touch.  The flowers arrangements were a variety of white roses and fountain...

This did not stop us from creating a WOW factor for the unsuspecting guests of honor.   We made use of red LED lights for the fire effect...

Seda ‘small enterprise development agency’ launch

          We were delighted to be awarded the tender for the Seda launch on 26th March 2014.   Our brief was to arrange everything from inviting and monitoring guests,  local media placement, stationery, name badges,  information booklets, decor, catering, sound, photography, gifts and logistics for this event.  We were to house the function in an enormous freeform tent outside but the weather was not playing in our favour.   It was...

La Pineta ‘under the pines’

La Pineta ‘under the pines’

  Bosko Ministries International launched their new function venue on 16 February 2014.  Their open-air chapel, with stone wall and reed ceiling, is set amount old pine trees, which is why it is called ‘La Pineta (meaning ‘pine grove’).  After the mayor had cut the ribbon, an al fresco lunch was served.  There is a ‘braai’ area if you wanted to have your ceremony outside, or you could make use of their banquet...
