Overview

We specialise in weddings in KwaZulu-Natal. Congratulations! You are to be married! And so the journey begins, to celebrate the love the two of you share with family and friends, and each other. So, let's daydream about your wedding.

Which one of these sensory experiences feels right for your celebration?

• Diamond - champagne and canapes, chauffeurs, dinner jackets, string quartets and chandeliers...
• Pearl - graceful, elegant, silk, satin, harking back to Queen Victoria
• Agate - giraffes, safari, bush, land rovers, bomas
• Sapphire - waves, seaweed, driftwood, tall, cool cocktails, fresh seafood, tropical fruits, orchids and frangipani.
• Ruby - rich colour in dimly lit rooms, sultry jazz, exotic seduction, movies in your head...
• Rose Quartz - mainly outdoors, sunsets, the scent of flowers, barbeque, laughter, casual ...

Together, let's explore all the possibilities within each style - the venues, food, wine, music and ambience. No style is set in stone, feel free to mix and match. With your dream and my expertise, we will create the perfect style for your unique and unforgettable celebration.

How do you make your special celebration authentically yours, while negotiating a labyrinth of wedding suppliers,ducking out of ideas from well meaning friends and family, and still keeping to a budget? This is where I come in. Allow me, Lesley of Wellspring Wedding Planners to make your dream come true. You will receive my personal attention to every detail.

Leading up to your Wedding

I work discreetly and calmly behind the scenes, taking pride in quality service. I bring on board only service providers to suit your style and budget, and those who attain my high standards. I coordinate all wedding service providers, like photographers, florists and caterers on your behalf. You only deal with one person throughout. The venues I recommend are selected for their intimacy and scenic location, ensuring a treasury of lasting photographic and video memories.

On-the-day Services include

• Advice on the entire process or on specific issues.
• Inspiration with little touches you may not have thought of.
• Help with wedding etiquette and hosting your special day. Includes helping with guests.
• Sensitive and discreet support during the preparation and behind the scenes on the day. Not a clip board in sight, your guests will think I am your aunt.
• Advice and planning on how to avoid stress.

I have planned many local weddings for couples based overseas. So if you are coming home for your wedding or just visiting South Africa for the adventure wedding of a lifetime, I can help. The use of the internet is extremely effective and having a person like me on the ground locally is very helpful. Credit: all photos on this page, by Michelle Flack.
