Bennie & Carla | 6 November 2010 | Montagu Guano Cave Guest Farm

Bennie & Carla are both originally from Montagu. Bennie is a farmer and Carla, a chef. They’ve known each other for 14 years and decided to have a 1920 Gatsby theme for their wedding. The guests dressed up accordingly, which made for some awesome photos :) I absolutely LOVED the details that Carla used. There were typewriters (which I was crazy about!) where guests could type the couple personal messages, old suitcases, wooden carved hearts, a beautiful vintage Chevy as well as Croquet, Bowls and Chess games that the guests got to enjoy. As the sun set, out came a huge table filled with many jars of candy, the kind you ate when you were young :), like marshmellow fish, chomps, candy necklaces, and sweetie pies. Bennie en Carla, baie dankie dat ons hierdie dag saam met julle kon geniet! Julle is ‘n baie duurbare paartjie en ons wens julle ‘n wonderlike huwelik saam! :)

PS. I don’t usually use vintage editing, but I fell in love with the nostalgic character it gave my images from this wedding :)
