Bride and groom together at their Newstead Plettenberg Bay wedding
From Sharyn’s journal

Cebo & Dan | Wedding | Newstead Vineyards

One of my favourite weddings ever! I don't think I stopped laughing for 11 hours! Cebo & Dan, from that first we met you and walked around Newstead and listening to how you visioned your day to be, I think we SMASHED IT and added some whipped cream and three cherries on top! What a STUNNING couple, amazing wedding and beautiful guests! Beyond thrilled!

What A WEDDING!

Where ON EARTH DO I BEGIN! What an AMAZING wedding, I don’t think I stopped smiling and laughing for 11 hours.

From the first moments when I met Cebo, Dan and the most precious little human I have ever seen, Zawati. I promised to keep Cebo’s champagne glass full the entire day, so that I could steal Zawati. As we walked around the beautiful Newstead Vineyards I told Cebo that she hired the two worst photographers in the world! The laughing didn’t end there, continuous banter between all of us and we just kept finding new little spots for their couple shoot.

Wedding day! I was chomping at the bit to just get shooting and I was greeted with warm hugs and beautiful smiles. Finding my way to Cebo, I laughed whilst editing these photos because she was hidden under so much hair that all I could see was her beautiful smile and kept reminding her that she scraped the barrel when it came to photographers.

Keep the FRO Cebo! 

I felt that I was going to a fashion show, each lady that came into the room to see Cebo, I was blown away by colour and vibrancy of everyone’s outfits. This is what a wedding should be like! 

Dan you face was priceless when you saw Cebo coming down the aisle, that ceremony was EPIC. Dancing, singing, hanging tear drops, personal vows and life long memories!

The couple shoot, mind blowing! How can a couple be this AMAZING in front of the camera from the first seconds of the shoot. From the dam, to the blossoms, the stables and ending in the vines with the most amazing sunset!

I am a HUGE supporter of dress change and Cebo and Dan, you both rocked it TIMES 2! WOW! Your reception was once again filled with so much energy, I loved how dancing and singing was part of the speeches, your speeches were some of the most moving speeches I have ever heard and there are some amazing people in your lives and the wisdom they shared is a life lesson for all of us. Thank you!

Cebo & Dan, I have no words. Your wedding is in my Top 5 of all time, because of the two of you. You brought such energy, your laughs and smiles, your expressive body language and trusting us to be your eyes. I will never ever forget you three and I really hope to you see you all again soon.
