About the Proposal

He proposed at home (his parent's house). He cooked me a lovely dinner and went down on one knee!

How far in advance did you choose to have your wedding after the proposal? And, why?

1 year. We needed time to plan the wedding properly.

How did you go about the wedding planning process? Did you do it yourself? How long was the planning process? How did you find it?

I used a wedding planner - Michelle from Silver Linings and did some of it myself.
I met Michelle at the wedding expo.

Did you have a hen party / kitchen tea / stag night / bachelor / bachelorette party? If so, what did you do and what did you enjoy most about it?

Yes - Kitchen Tea at the Botanical Gardens in Pretoria and Hen party at my parent's house!

Wedding Details (the whole story...from start to finish)
