Dearest Hayley, Aleit and the rest of the team,
My goodness! Can it really be more than a month since our wedding day? Our feet have hardly touched the ground since then; we are still taking it all in….
And what a mind-blowing day it was! We were astounded with the level of detail at the wedding - words can’t do justice to all the experiences which, coupled with the fabulous backdrop of Webersburg lead to an unforgettable day… Thousands of views, sounds, tastes, emotions, friendship, families, fizz and fun! How terrible it would be if we had no memory.
The entire day was all that we dreamed it would be and more! Family and friends are all dying to see the photos, as are we, and I think the concept of the menu and the food will be talked about for years to come.
We are so grateful to Candice whose makeup and styling made everyone look beautiful on the morning of the wedding. And to both Jean-Pierre and Vicky who were so unobtrusive in their approach that we hardly knew they were there. We are both SOOOO excited to see the end products! Guests have all been asking about the photos and video, and Mark and the boys are very excited about the cigar photos!
Please pass our thanks on to Hans for his technical and sound expertise and our band, Blaze, both of whom did a superb job of getting everybody in the mood, up on the dance floor, and keeping them there!
Hayley - our special thanks go to you - we are indebted to you for the day that you organised. You took our ideas and dreams and turned them into reality. Without your patience, support and attention to detail we would never have had such a magnificent day; you are incredible at what you do, and in our eyes a real star.
Aleit - from the moment we met - you and your team you have filled us with confidence. Mark and I still talk about the day you took us around the various venues; your enthusiasm for the work you do is infectious and really filled us with confidence, and the rapport you have with the rest of your team and your service providers is unique and something you should really be proud of!
We consider you all as friends and we are so glad that you were able to be such an important part of our wonderful day. We hope that when you are next in the UK you will look us up - and for our part, we intend to be back in Cape Town in the near future and will definitely be chasing you guys up for a drink! Hayley, Mark has asked me to remind you that the offer to join them for a snowboarding holiday still stands; they go every year around January! :o)
Finally, before signing off; a big thank you on behalf of all our family and friends who stayed at Webersberg. The staff were incredible - and special thanks should go to Michelle, who was particularly attentive during our stay, ensuring that everyone felt at home and had everything they needed.
Anyway, what more is there to say... We want to thank you ALL for a truly memorable day with such detail and thought interwoven into every aspect! We will remember the day for the rest our lives and for that we have you to thank, as it is a day we will cherish forever.
With love and best wishes
