Flamingovlei wedding


Vows were whispered and taken by the wind, 

a fly-by of flamingos hovered above,

the pig ate the confetti, the rooster impressed and the cat stood sentry.





A feast was laid, candles lit, fires warmed,

The sun set in a glory of colour, Table mountain a silent witness.

A wedding was celebrated, on the edge of the water, in a little nursery on  Flamingovlei

  4. Wow! I can’t take my eyes off the decoration. It looks so beautiful! My fiancé has shortlisted some of the amazing San Francisco wedding venues for our wedding and I will make sure such decoration is done on my wedding too.
