Friday was the day of the rehearsal and we spent the day just relaxing and spending time with everyone. Then it was off to the wedding site in Stellenbosch, which is gorgeous wine country. The wedding was held at Klein Bottlery and every detail of the place was just gorgeous. The style was rustic, yet delicate and a perfect reflection of Jeremy and Delani.
Keri tried to get a picture of everyone in the car... apparently Cilla and I were the only ones ready :)
For the rehearsal dinner we went out to eat and had a blast just hanging out! Again, Cilla, Audrey, and Keri had just arrived the day before so we were still catching up with them :)
The day of the wedding!! Though it was a bit cloudy and rainy, it was still an absolutely gorgeous day (albeit a tad chilly...)
The reception hall was so gorgeous!
The handsome groom... gotta love him :)
Me and my big brothers... I always feel safe and loved when I'm with them.

Time for the Reception. The wait staff was so kind to bring hors d'oeuvres around to the guests while we were waiting to get pictures done and they were amazing! Then, while the bride and groom went to get pictures, there was a lovely coffee and hot tea bar open and with the drizzly weather, everyone was quick to enjoy that!

First Dance
My eldest brother, Jason, was the MC and the best man and he did a superb job! His toast made several of us laugh and cry. :)
Her dress was hand-made by a friend. The details were absolutely stunning!

And there you have it... one of the most beautiful weddings I've attended. I felt so blessed to be able to travel and spend this special time with them. As you will see in a later post, Robert and I were able to finish out our trip by spending a week with Jeremy and Delani in Ladybrand after they returned from their honeymoon. I'm so glad we were able to make all these wonderful memories. More to come soon!
By the way, just wanted to give photo credit for some of the pictures.
There is a little mix of Cilla's, Keri's, and Tami's in with mine. :)
