It's sweet little rustic weddings with a big heart like this one that really make me melt. Kelly and Duncan chose a venue for their wedding that isn't even an actual function venue (although you wouldn't know by the fantastic show of hospitality that Dalmore put on for the couple). Rather, it's a place that's close to their hearts, a country getaway where they feel relaxed and happy, and where they could bring their guests to experience the same, among the spectacular scenery of the Natal Drakensberg. Add in some DIY rustic detailing, a few Madiba proteas (wow, but they're gorgeous, aren't they?) and a glam lace dress for the bride, and you have the perfect lil' mix for a wonderful day. Casey Pratt captured every lovely moment from behind the lens.

DIY Elements
Luckily I have three sisters who are all extremely creative and understand my style so the majority of the décor was DIY. The flowers were very simply arranged in Consol jars which we collected throughout the year. Some of the jars were decorated with lace or raffia and some plain. Succulents were individually potted in enamel mugs as our favours for our guests. Some of the other DIY elements were our placemats, name tags, table numbers and my favourite, the wooden guest message puzzle. For our video, we had GoPros filming throughout the day.
