IMG 4201 30 Kids at a wedding!

“Did you really give this enough thought??”….  was mulling through my head when Rene & Martine first told me that no less than 30 kids would be attending their wedding.  But they did think it through… and that is what made this wedding a huge success and one of my top 5 weddings ever shot!

The secret formula:

  1. Get a child friendly wedding venue – Bingo – Mofam River Lodge near Elgin.
  2. Entertainment is crucial – Hire a petting zoo, a clown, a puppet show and plenty of toys.
  3. Make sure their sleeping spot is very close – in this case the Mofam cottages just 30 meters away!
  4. On the day, be chilled and relaxed and make sure your schedule is very flexible.

This wedding was full of surprises.  Tomorrow we will do a blog post about the special way in which the bride and groom arrived at the ceremony – Don’t miss this!

  9. hey martine & rene, looks like you had a real fun wedding (not like some of the the pretentious “glamour events” that are so common nowadays) – seeing photos of the children makes me realise that that is exactly how it should be

    wishing you all of the best for your future together

    p.s. some really fantastic images there
