FAQ
Do you travel for weddings beyond Cape Town?
Yes! While Cape Town is our home, we are available for weddings across South Africa and abroad. Each destination celebration is approached with the same care and attention, with bespoke travel arrangements tailored seamlessly to your experience.
How far in advance should we reserve our date?
Most of our couples secure their date 12 to 18 months ahead, particularly during Cape Town’s peak season. As we take on a limited number of weddings each year, reserving early ensures your date is exclusively yours.
What is required to confirm our booking?
A signed agreement and a 30% booking retainer secure your date exclusively with us. From there, we work closely with you to refine every detail and ensure your vision is beautifully realised.
When and how will we receive our images?
Your complete gallery will be delivered within 5 to 6 weeks. A curated preview is shared shortly after your wedding, so you can relive some of your most cherished moments while anticipation builds for the full collection. Images are delivered in a private online gallery, beautifully presented for easy viewing, sharing, and printing.
