Cheers to Friday and the end of our 2023/2024 season 🥂✨️

And wow, what a season it was... Reflecting on the past few months, we are filled with immense gratitude and love. We have been so blessed with the couples who have trusted us, the vendors we have been able to work with (both new and old), and with each other.

So, here's to getting some rest, some inspiration, and coming back even more focused.

If real, intentional, and authentic moments are what you want for your wedding day, we invite you to reach out. Let's create magic together 🤍

The face you make when you realise all your wedding dreams have become your reality 😍

We’re pretty much in awe of all the incredible couples we’ve been meeting and them entrusting us with one of the biggest days of their lives. When we see reactions like this, our hearts beat a little faster and we are reminded of why this job is so special and so very rewarding 🥰🤩

J+C 🤍🐧

I just adore these two! Jen and Chris celebrated their marriage with a very intimate ceremony on the coast with their moms and son and a sweet dinner together at the amazing Tintswalo Boulders afterward to end off the evening. The relaxed rhythm of the day and the intentionality of each moment could not have been more perfect.

Being part of their elopement and witnessing their love was such an infectious JOY. So grateful to have been a part of it. 🤍✨️

The month of love has arrived, and we’re kick-starting it with some exciting news! In our last post, we mentioned that we’re changing things up bit. Well…let’s fill you in on what’s been happening BTS…

After many reflection sessions, we have decided to refine our offering, allowing us to offer a unique and personalized service, like never before! We’re excited to reintroduce ourselves as Bianca and Kelly, your elopement and intimate wedding planners✨

If you take a look across our platforms you’ll notice a key consistency - we talk about Intention and Authenticity. These are so much more than words to us. They’re a brand reflection, a life motto, and something we strive to reflect in every single wedding.

So, for those couples wanting bespoke, authentic, and adventurous moments. For those who truly understand the concept of celebrating love in a unique way, we’re ready to make the magic happen for you!

Happy New Year, babes 🤍🥂

Another year has come and gone. We know that we've been really quiet on our socials after a busy few months. We have taken some time to reflect on our journey and how we move forward. Stark events has been one of our greatest joys, and we are incredibly grateful to all our couples and fellow industry peers who have trusted us with such special celebrations over the past 3 years.

I (Bianca) have been through an incredibly challenging year both mentally and emotionally - one I wouldn't wish on anyone. I've had to re-evaluate my life and what I want to accomplish within the short time we are here. There have been many good moments in between, and I am ready to bring in the new season by being authentic and intentional. To living a little more for 'me' and being present with those closest to me.

When I (Kelly) look back on 2022, I think about all my positive wins, both personally and professionally, but I also look back on what was an exceptionally challenging year. A year that has given me so many highs, yet so many lows. As we enter a new year, a new season, I’ve had to make a decision to do what serves me best, what serves us best. It’s true what they say – ‘you cannot pour from an empty cup’ and although 2022 had me feeling quite depleted, I’m ready to embrace this new season with intention.

With that said, we have made a collective decision to change up our business model. We cannot wait to announce on the 1st February 2023. ✨️

Pizza party for 2? Yes please 🍕😍

When we say your wedding day can be anything you want it to, we truly mean it! If the idea of a traditional wedding day stresses you out or you just simply feel it isn't "you" then slide into our DMs.

It is our goal to help couples create the day they really want, no matter what that includes.

Pizza picnic? ✔️
Want to bring your pups along? ✔️
Take a heli to the top of the mountain? ✔️

Maybe you never envisioned this being possible for your big day, but we're here to tell you that anything goes. It's YOUR day ✨️

Let's get real. Behind all the smiles, pretty pictures and beautiful works of art, we are real people who also experience days that are not so good. Owning a small business, especially, is hard work. Late nights, often full-time jobs, mundane tasks and missed time with family and friends, are all part of the package. However, we keep at it (even when we have very little left in the tank) because we take pride in what we do and we genuinely love serving all our amazing clients. So as small business owners, we're just here to say, you're doing an amazing job and your efforts will not go unnoticed. You've made it this far and we're rooting for you! Keep shining.

So, this is a reminder that our DMs are always open, should you need advice or simply an ear to listen. No one should have to struggle in silence. We're here for you, no matter who you are to us. 🤍🤍

We've been a tad bit quiet on our platforms, however we've been super busy behind the scenes turning dreams and visions into reality. We cannot wait to share all the exciting shoots, weddings and events with you real soon. 💕

Simplistic beauty 🤍

It’s often the simple things that set our hearts on fire. Forehead kisses, a good morning text or simply a picked flower from the garden. There’s no need to overcomplicate love or your wedding for that matter. Simple wins, always 🥰
