Jacey & Monique | 27 March 2010 | Beloftebos, Stanford

Monique and Jacey are the sweetest couple. They are truly meant to be together, they compliment each other so well. Jacey contacted me a few months ago from where he works in Dubai, I never got to meet him before their wedding day, what a pleasant guy! And Monique is equally pleasant, I was fortunate to meet her a few times before the wedding because I did their stationery as well. Their wedding took place at Beloftebos just outside Stanford (this time I had the opportunity to be behind the lens at the venue where Kappie and I got married on the 29th of Jan and what a pleasure it was!). We watched the weather sites with hawk’s eyes the week prior to the wedding and it was not looking too good, but luckily the only bit of rain that fell was at the very start of the ceremony for a few seconds and from there onwards the weather was perfect. I love photographing couples that are so obviously in love, Jacey and Monique can make each other laugh with just one glance! I loved the choice of flowers and also their cute cake! Andries and Coia from Beloftebos are excellent hosts and everyone agreed that the whole menu was top class (the spitbraai and salmon caviar tart were my absolute favourites!). The tent look magical with the full moon casting a soft light above it. Jacey and Monique, it was an absolute joy and pleasure working with you guys, thank you for having me as your photographer and stationer!
