Real Wedding: Dejane & Erik

When Christina from Wedding Concepts (one of our fabulous Dylan List members) sent over this wedding I instantly feel in love. This sheer urban elegance meets authentic rural charm was shot by the very talented Jean-Pierre Uys.

When Christina and her team design your wedding they have one thing in mind, “step off the beaten track and offer your guests an experience they haven’t seen in years. Keep it real by letting the authenticity of your venue shine through in food and decor that complement the setting.”

This is what Christina had to say about Dejane and Erik’s wedding:

Opting for a venue in the middle of pretty much nowhere, one knows you’re in the hot seat when it comes to pulling together the arrangements for your big day. Dejane and Erik, two soulful city slickers, envisioned a wedding that would be different to any other their guests had attended before. Our goal was to breathe life into the barren, dry landscape and old, partially dilapidated buildings by adding touches of modern glamour. The use of vibrant colour was paramount in adding exclamation to the atmosphere whilst natural wood, rusted iron and antique furniture elements paid homage to the significant culture and history of this magical setting. The ceremony – “no flowers; only candles please” – took place in an intimately lit, refurbished barn. The reception tent was a glowing beacon of colour against the backdrop of massive blue gums and date palms

If ever there was a farm style affair, this was it…menus printed on oversized linen napkins, starters served on individual wooden boards with snoek pate, fig preserve and biltong and curious farm animals joining in the festivities! A mood rich with genuine joy and fearless fun!
