🔥 Holiday Homes Needed 🔥

Looking to rent out your home as self-catering accommodation over December?

If so, we would love to hear from you!

A family of 5 is looking for a safe and relaxing place to stay during their holiday in South Africa. They are particularly interested in accommodation that has a pool or is close to beach with Views. The property must have a braai area, as they love to cook outdoors.

Period of stay:
22nd December to 2nd January 2023.

If you have a property that meets the requirements, please contact us as soon as possible.

We look forward to hearing from you!

❤️🙏🏼

SMS and Toll-Free Services Discontinued!

You can no longer verify your current marital status at the Department of Home Affairs using the SMS service, by sending your ID Number. This leaves you with only ONE feasible option. Should you need to verify your status before the wedding, you need to physically go to your nearest Home Affairs office, stand in the queue, wait to eventually get the front, hand your ID Document to the officer. Ask for him or her to please check your status on the system. IMPORTANT. Now ask for a screen-print of the monitor, the very same screen that verifies that you are currently not captured on the Home Affairs System as still being married.
Scan and email me the screen-print before the wedding, I must have verification of your marital status before the date of the wedding.
If you consider yourself one of the lucky ones, you can also try to phone your nearest branch, telephonically confirm your current marital status over the phone, then phone me and verify your status in order for me to know whether I can proceed with your wedding ceremony or not.

Have a super weekend ahead of us,
Love and Greeting,
Rev. Leon

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

It’s my responsibility, as your marriage officer, to register your marriage at home affairs after I officiated your marriage. BUT, handing in your signed DHA 30 (heteros*xual marriages) or the new DHA 1766 Civil Union Registration Documents for same-s*x couples, DOES NOT CHANGE YOUR SURNAME AS INDICATED ON THESE DOCUMENTS – AUTOMATICALLY!

These documents merely state: ASSUMED surname after marriage. It states your intention of wanting to take on your spouse’s surname. Once home affairs registered your marriage, it is your OWN RESPONSIBILITY, to visit your nearest home affairs branch and complete another set of documents with them to change your surname, apply for a new ID Document and apply for an abridged or unabridged printed version of your marriage certificate. The marriage officer can unfortunately not do any of these on your behalf. Your signatures (and payment where applicable) are needed to complete this surname change process.

Whatsapp me on 072 400 5292 if I can assist you in getting married anytime soon.
Alternatively email me at: [email protected]
Love and Greetings,
Rev. Leon Nel

Enjoy your time with family during the festive season. Family is everything.

Kind regards,

What is an Antenuptial Contract WITHOUT accrual?
There are two types of antenuptial contracts should you wish to be married OUT of community of property. The first one is “WITHOUT ACCRUAL”, the other is “WITH ACCRUAL”. Today I will discuss Out of Community of Property WITHOUT ACCRUAL. Next week we will discuss WITH ACCRUAL.
WITHOUT ACCRUAL simply means that all assets and debt acquired before plus during the marriage remain separate throughout the course of the marriage. Assets are never shared, and each partner has a separate estate. Each partner has full contractual freedom to buy and sell his or her own assets without the signature of the other. If one of the partners becomes insolvent, creditors have no claim on the assets of the other partner. This type of contract is most often used by couples where the one or both parties have accumulated substantial assets prior to marriage and wish to protect those assets. The disadvantage of such an Antenuptial Contract WITOUT ACCRUAL, is that, in the case of death or divorce, you are entitled only to those assets you have accrued in your own name. The parent who chooses to stay at home to raise children will unfortunately also not be entitled to the assets accumulated by the other partner.

There are FOUR different types of marriages according to the Marriage Law in South Africa. As a registered marriage officer, I am legally allowed to register two of the four types of marriages in South Africa, namely, a CIVIL UNION and a CIVIL MARRIAGE. Make sure you know the differences in order to find the correct marriage officer for your wedding.

What is a civil marriage?
 It is a marriage that can only be entered into between a man and a woman.
 A civil marriage will automatically be in community of property, unless the persons enter into an ante nuptial contract indicating that the marriage will be out of community of property, with or without the accrual system.

What is a customary marriage?
 It is a marriage entered into between a man and a woman, negotiated and celebrated according to the prevailing customary law in their community.
 A customary marriage entered before 15 November 2000 is recognised as a valid marriage, however, it will be regulated in terms of the specific traditions and customs applicable at the time the marriage was entered.
 A customary marriage entered after 15 November 2000 is recognised as a valid marriage and will receive full legal protection irrespective of whether it is monogamous or polygamous.
 A monogamous customary marriage will automatically be in community of property, unless it is stipulated otherwise in an ante nuptial contract.
 In a polygamous marriage, the husband must apply to the High Court for permission to enter into such a marriage and provide the court with a written contract stating how the property in the marriages will be regulated (to protect the property interests of both the existing and prospective spouses).

What is a civil union?
 It is a marriage entered into between two persons of the same s*x.
 A civil union will automatically be in community of property, unless it is stipulated otherwise in an ante nuptial contract.

What is a religious marriage?
 It is a marriage entered into in terms of a religion such as the Islamic and Hindu faith.
 Even though it is not recognised in South African law, some limited protection is granted to a religious marriage in the following instances:
 a spouse may, upon the death of the other spouse, approach a Magistrate’s Court for a maintenance order against the deceased spouse’s estate;
• a spouse may inherit in terms of the law of intestate succession (when a person dies with no Will); and
• spouses are protected against domestic violence.
 A religious marriage must be treated as a marriage out of community of property without the accrual system.

EXTENDING OUR SERVICES

We are in the planning phase to connect to hand picked "power partners", trusted people we came to know over many years being in the wedding industry, as beloved friends, that will help us add value to your wedding planning experience.

We specialize in small to medium size weddings at your home or wedding venue of your choice. We want to be able to connect you to a florist for flowers, attorney for your antenuptial contract, caterer for a platter or two and a photographer to capture your most beautiful day for eternity. Instead of getting married in an office at home affairs, allow us to make your day an event you will treasure for ever.

Watch this space, we will make announcements soon about added services from us apart from being your marriage officer officiating your marriage.

Love and Greetings,
Rev. Leon Nel
