Karike & Werner

Martijn Roos -8617

Back in March 2017 we had the honor to be a part of this beautiful couple’s wedding day.

Karike & Werner had a truly extraordinary weekend with us, celebrating their family and friends and showing the type of love you can see when being around them. The Roos brothers did not disappoint in capturing this with their combined photography ad videography! Just take a look at the amazing video below showcasing the wonderful weekend in the Nuy Valley.

The weekend started off with a get together of the family and friends the evening before. They had a pizza tuk-tuk catering for them the evening and we provided drinks. They had some fun and games with family including Giant Jenga and our Italian bowl set.

Saturday the guys kicked off the day with a Nuy Valley Tractor Trailer drive to Willowcreek for olive oil tasting and Conradie Family Vineyards for wine tasting and finished at Leipzig with wine tasting. All while the girls started their day out with make-up, bubbly, fun and laughter with her bridesmaids.

A beautiful ceremony took place in our garden underneath the century old oak tree and this is also where both of them said their own vows to each other. Werner promised all his love to Karike and promised she would never walk alone again. He also promised to walk hand in hand with their path leading forward.

She promised where he’ll go, she’ll go and stay where he is. His God is hers and she chooses him above all with all of his strengths and weakness. She chooses him and him alone and is looking forward for the road ahead.

The group went to take photos at the amphitheater and we quickly turned the ceremony area into their pre-drinks area.  Hosted outside in the garden with games for young and old. Guests were spoiled with Saggy Stone beer, cocktails, while waiters roamed around with gourmet canapes.

Their colour scheme green, white & touches of gold. The reception so beautiful with candles surrounding the entire hall. Slow braised Red Wine Lamb Shanks was a sensation for main, while others enjoyed a Creamed White Leipzig Chicken dish as an option. Guests danced the night away with decadent canape-style desserts to snack on.

The crowd were definite dancers and the floor was full the entire evening. They opened the  dancefloor with bubbles surrounding the two of them, upon their second song all guest popped crackers filled with golden confetti and danced the night away.

The Month Of Love

Bride & Groom Cake

Did you know that February is National Wedding Month?

Not only are we three weeks into the month of love, but also the National Wedding Month. And what a beautiful month to get married in South Africa. Valentine’s day has become such a popular day to get married on, that people are booking these dates well in advance. The month of love also brings us an extra day every four years, which has also become a very popular date for weddings. With so much love, why not get married in February.

Have a look at one of our beautiful weddings, showcasing so much love. The most amazing pink hydrangeas and natural table settings. The couple had a lot of natural items brought into their wedding with flower arrangements on our rustic arch and wooden planks at their table settings. Leipzig Country House offers so many outside areas with beautiful sceneries for the most amazing photos. See for yourself…

NICOLE & DIVAN

We are so excited to share this post with you…. Nicole & Divan’s wedding was breathtakingly beautiful. We absolutely love everything of this romantic winter wedding and it was such an honour to be part of this special day.

“A lasting marriage always begins with an enduring friendship”, and we can certainly say that Nicole married her best friend on 2 July 2016. It was beautiful to the see the teamwork, affection and thoughtfulness between them.

The day started out with make-up, bubbly, fun and laughter with her bridesmaids. Nicole was calm and excited at the same time when her dad walked her down the aisle, while Divan looked at her in awe. A beautiful ceremony announced Nicole & Divan married.

Pre-drinks were hosted in our century old red wine cellar, which turned into the dance floor later at night. Guests were spoiled with Muscadel, Red Wine and Hot Chocolate to keep them warm. Lounge pockets brought a cosy atmosphere and guests huddled up to the fire place. Waiters roamed around with gourmet canapes.

A colour scheme of green, white & gold with a touch of navy brought an elegant touch to reception. The Ghost-chairs looked so chic with the flower runner on long tables. Slow braised Red Wine Lamb Shanks was a sensation, while others enjoyed a Creamed White Leipzig Chicken dish as an option. Guests danced the night away with decadent canape-style desserts to snack on.
