A farm wedding in the "Vrystaat" - South Africa

Back in 2007, before my blogging days, I had the priviledge to take photographs at a good friend's wedding on a farm in the Free State. (for those of you that don't know where that is... it's the middle, rather large, rather flat bit, in South Africa) ;-)

It was a lovely day, filled with family and loads of friends, and it all happened on a family farm (what felt to me to be) in the middle of nowhere. Just to give you an idea, it took me 9 hours by car to get there... I rest my case.

I was amazed at the level of detail at their wedding, from the little bunches of lavendar that was everywhere to the trio that played before/after the ceremony. It was magical and I think you'll have to look long and hard to match the atmosphere at a South African wedding.

The ceremony took place on the lawn in front of the farm house and the reception was in an ENORMOUS marquee in an open field not far from there.

I have recently been working with these images again and wanted to share it with you, so have a look...















I had an absolute ball at this wedding, and I wanted to say thank you to Lynn and Johannes for having me!
