An October Wedding
Another Beautiful Wedding
The second wedding I’ve been to in South Africa and I’m sold on it!
I’m sold on going to beautiful weddings in South Africa — the whole marriage thing I’m still a bit hesitant…
I’ve been blessed with some wonderful friends—and friends from all over. This wedding celebrated the matrimony of a Kiwi (New Zealand) and a Zimbabwean. A side note—I’ve often thought how strange everybody’s accents are in my world when really I’m the only one with the awkward accent here…Kim and Phil met in England and their relationship spans several continents and more adventure than an average lifetime…quite an inspiration.
So their wedding was up to par. The venue: a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean. The show stopper: a cloud that covered the ceremony in a heavenly aura as the pastor gave his blessing. The pictures: still not enough to convey the beauty…
I’ve been to some incredible weddings in my lifetime—there really isn’t ‘better ones’ (although Ryan and Adrienne entering to Coldplay’s ‘clocks’ was the best)—however the bar seems to get raised each wedding I go to…This one set some great precedents.
The whole ‘Vegas’ option is a no-go…definitely…
