This week we feature Anné Gray, a very talented Cape Town photographer who shot a beautiful wedding here at Rondekuil Venues in Durbanville.
Anné Gray photographed the fairytale wedding of Campbell and Shelley. This is what she had to say about the delightful couple and their wedding:

Campbell and Shelley wanted to include their whole church family in their wedding celebrations, so they had their ceremony in Meadowridge and the reception at Rondekuil, just outside of Durbanville. I love the heart behind it. It is amazing to see how much energy these two have. They are always ready for a joke or to pull a face.

This week we feature Elizma Hayman, another very talented photographer from Cape Town.
Elizma photographed the colourful wedding of Heidi & Ludwig here at our versatile venue of Rondekuil Venues.
Elizma said of the day: “We had a perfect day for photos…especially when the sun was setting. Rondekuil is a beautiful venue, with loads of possibilities.”

The photographs below tell the story…

Just recently married in May this year, Ruan and Lieze Beneke have come to stay in the Rondawel on Rondekuil Estates for a few months while they await the transfer of the purchase of their new home which they bought in Aurora. Ruan is originally from the Free State ,and Lieze is a Capetonian. They were married on the 24th of May in Franshoek. Whilst Ruan enjoys his rugby and being out in nature, Lieze is quite the fitness fanatic and actively takes part in cycle races. On Saturday, she took part in “Die Burger Boland Mountain Bike Race”, held in Stellenbosch. Both of them also like to jog a few times during the week. Lieze works as a Food Safety Auditor for a prominent Cape Town company, and Ruan works for the City of Cape Townas a City Councillor.

It was a lovely Spring day at Rondekuil Estates when Lucy and Bertus exchanged their wedding vows on the lawns overlooking the rolling hillside surrounding the farm. Their reception was held in our venue, where 60 guests, comprising family and friends joined them. Lucy and Bertus met 3 years ago at a ballroom dancing event held at the Cape Town University. They both enjoyed ballroom dancing as a hobby, and still do social dancing occasionally. The proposal was a complete surprise to Lucy, he presented her with a tanzanite and white gold engagement ring, and popped the question while they were casually watching television one evening.

After a few days of rain, the sun came out for the colourful wedding of Luthando and Thamali who shared their vows with each other in front of 41 friends and family at the Rondekuil Venue on Friday, the 27th of June. Dressed in her wedding gown, Thamalie was stylish, elegant and radiant, and Luthando was a dashingly handsome figure in his designer suit. Luthando is from Johannesburg and Thamalie from Sri Lanka, and the handsome couple met each other “in flight” so to speak, as Thamalie is an air hostess and Luthando is part of the cabin crew. They dated for 2 years before Luthando popped the question, quite by surprise a few months ago, and then they decided to host their wedding in Cape Town, before jetting off to Sri Lanka for their honeymoon, then coming back to South Africa to settle in Johannesburg.
