Summer Wedding at Molenvliet

COUPLE

Vivienne and David

VENUE

Molenvliet, Stellenbosch

ABOUT THE DAY

Vivienne and David reserved the entire Molenvliet estate for their two-day wedding celebration, beginning with a welcome poolside spit braai the day before where guests could unwind and get acquainted. With live music by Kai Connor and lawn games scattered across the grass, the evening had a warm, laid-back atmosphere.

The wedding day itself was nothing short of perfect, filled with meaningful personal touches. The couple exchanged vows in the vineyards, and in a nod to David’s involvement in their local rowing team in Ireland, they included a unique oar procession during the confetti moment — a memorable tribute to their shared journey.

FROM THE COUPLE

“We cannot express enough how grateful we are for The Event Planners and the amazing coordination provided by Niki! From start to finish, they were incredibly supportive and helped guide us through every step of the wedding process. We truly wouldn’t have been able to survive the planning without their expertise and constant support. A special thanks to Niki, who went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything was perfect, and her attention to detail was unmatched. Many people do not realize just how much work goes into planning a wedding, but Niki and her team made the entire process feel effortless. We are forever grateful for everything they did and can’t thank them enough for making our special day run smoothly. We highly recommend The Event Planners to anyone looking for expert support and coordination for their wedding!”
