Riaan and Melani had a beautiful warm winters day with the promise of spring in the air.  Excitment was all around when we arrived at Zakopane Wedding Village for the start of their day.

First up was the photos of Riaan and Riaan, jip, both groom and best man had the same name which made for lots of fun when trying to move one of them in or out of a photo.   Off to Melani we went.  Getting into a wedding dress without ruining your hair and make-up is quite a challenge.  Melani fortunately had lots of willing hands to help and her bridesmaid was quite the pro lacing up the back of her dress.  Melani you looked beautiful!  Time came for the ceremony and what a beautiful union it was.  They never stopped smiling and could not wait for “you may kiss your bride”.

Zakopane is a beautiful country venue situated in Brits.  With its wide open spaces and picturesque chapel it was easy to create gorgeous backdrops for their romantic shoot.  My favourite part of the romantic shoot was the sunset photos.  The light was just perfect!   Melani and Riaan congratulations on your wedding.   It was a beautiful day and we are glad we could be a part of it.
