Destination Weddings Discussions

Hi everyone!

I'm planning my destination wedding in South Africa for november.
We are also having a really small deal here in the USA.
But our real wedding emotionally will be there.
He wants the beach or a vinyard. I want whatever keeps me far away from the great white sharks..LOL
Happy destination wedding to all!!!

  • Hi and welcome!!!!!  South Africa sounds amazing!!!!  You have found a great board here with a BUNCH of fabulous ladies!  We hope you stick around and plan with us.

    I don't recall seeing any other South Africa brides on here, but we can all definitely help with inspiration!

  • My fiance is from there. He has family in Jo-burg and cape town.
    He came to the states after the end of apartid (sp). We met in middle school and found eachother again about 1.5 years ago.
    Th USA wedding is for my family and our friends. The South african for his extended family. We will move there when my daughter is 18 (she's 11 now)
    So super excited!! :)
    Doesn't matter where we are getting married I'm sure we will have tons to relate to eachother.
    Thanks for all the sweet well wishes.

  • Welcome and Congrats!!!!!  That's so very exciting.  South Africa is such a beautiful country.  My cousin has just gotten back from working there for about 4mo.  She loved every moment and her pictures are amazing.  I'm also getting married in November, so it will be great to see all of your planning over the next 6mo.
