THE FINER
WEDDING DAY
DETAILS
"Life is short. Make it sweet. Kiss slowly, laugh insanely, love truly, and forgive quickly."
We invite you to join us for welcome drinks and dinner on Friday, 9th of October from 5.30pm to kick off our wedding weekend.
Venue in Franschhoek to be confirmed.
We request that guests wear smart casual attire: dressed up but still comfortable.
- Paulo Coelho
Black Tie Optional
We kindly request that guests dress elegantly with a touch of dashing formality, for a stylish Coelho celebration on Saturday.
For Ladies: An elegant gown, a refined cocktail dress, or polished separates would be perfectly in keeping with the evening’s enchantment. Do note: Champagne will grace the lawn as twilight falls. Do let practicality guide your choice of footwear. Comfortable shoes for dancing are a wonderful idea, after all!
For Gentlemen: A suit with tie, elegantly paired with dress shoes, would be a fitting choice for the evening.
We love children and they are welcome.
An open bar will weave its magic throughout the evening, offering a curated selection of wines, spirits and refreshments to savour as we celebrate together.
A Moment to Savour, Unplugged
We lovingly request the gift of your presence during the ceremony, without your phones. Our professionals will weave the magic of the ceremony into memories for all to treasure.
You are welcome to take photos and videos after the wedding ceremony.
