Real South African Wedding: Martilene & Johannes

Martilene met Johannes through a mutual friend. He proposed during a date on a farm in Namibia. Martilene is an outgoing and fun-loving individual, who loves people, shopping and playing tennis.

She found her soul mate in Johannes who is a serious, down-to-earth and ambitious man who also loves the outdoors.

The Aleit Group said Martilene and Johannes’s wedding was a celebration of their love for each other. It was an informal yet elegant celebration, marked by shabby chic vintage styling, with a robust touch.

Martilene describes her wedding day as, “The best day ever!” She cannot choose her favourite moment, simply saying, “Everything was absolutely fantastic!”

They were married at the lovely Webersburg Wine Estate, after falling in love with its sweeping views. On the wedding day, the ceremony area was filled with timeless decor, creating a stylish yet dreamy and romantic ambience.

The stunning Bride walked down the aisle to “Ave Maria – Bach Gounod” played by the Mediterranean Ensemble; following her seven pretty flower girls.

The ensemble added to the sacred atmosphere, playing “La Vie and Rose” as the couple exchanged rings.

After the beautiful outside standing ceremony, guests were greeted by a line of waitpersons offering Pongracz, red and white sparkling grape juice, and jugs of water with fresh mint and deliciously refreshing mojitos.

During cocktail hour guest were severed Canapés and included brie and pistachio won tongs, sesame glazed chicken satay served in a spicy red curry and coconut milk shooter; and sesame seeded crispy duck pancakes with spring onion, plum sauce and cucumbers.

Bobotie triangles were also served, with a date and fig chutney. Guests enjoyed seared springbok carpaccio rolled and stuffed with rocket, roasted rosa tomatoes and caramelized onions, served on curled canapé forks, as well as 5-spiced duck spring rolls served with a sweet soy dipping sauce.

The Reception was lavish and quirky, with a Cape to Cuba theme to it – long tables, amber colored water glasses, and piles of old books scattered between candles in bubbly bottles.

Beautiful high flower arrangements added to the overall relaxed and romantic effect, as well as yellow roses scattered on the dance floor.
