Happy Friday everyone! What better way could there be t0 celebrate the beginning of the weekend, than with a blog post about the kind of classic romance we all covet and secretly love knowing is a reality? High school sweethearts, Dale and Kate, became husband and wife at the beautiful Roca restaurant in the Dieu Donne Vineyards in Franschoek last month. After many years of dating, they have already lived up to the vows they made on this day … a thousand times over. They’ve stuck together in good times and bad, made one anothers families their own, and most importantly, still look as in love as I would perceive a brand new couple to be. Kate and Dale, I wish you and your families tens of years of happiness in your union and I enjoyed every moment of being a part of this momentous moment in your lives. All my love, Claire x
