HOW…DID YOU MEET?
We met at my family’s coffee shop. Bonita was helping out at the centre’s wine festival that evening, and she had two hours to spare for a coffee. We starting chatting and, as she left, I wanted to ask her out but, at that moment, a client entered the coffee shop and I lost my courage. Just before our shop closed, I steeled my nerves and made my way to the wine festival… and that’s when I told Bonita that I wanted to see her again!
WHY…DID YOU CHOOSE WATERKLOOF?
Being in the wedding industry, I didn’t want to have a standard wine estate wedding. Bonita, on the other hand, was happy with a wine estate, so we had to find the middle ground. We’ve both always enjoyed going to great restaurants for dinner and Waterkloof was that perfect
combination: a wonderful restaurant with phenomenal views, amazing food, wonderful wines and perfect service. The choice was easy.

WHAT…IS YOUR FAVOURITE MEMORY OF THE DAY?
I remember that a good friend of mine always said, “The best moment of any wedding is when your bride walks down the aisle”, and I can completely agree with him. Seeing Bonita walk down the aisle was the most wonderful feeling I’ve ever had, and is something that I’ll remember and cherish forever.
