Editorial - Bona Dea Private Estate

Bona Dea Private Estate in the Hemel en Aarde Valley near Hermanus, and is a perfectly situated at the entrance to the famous valley drive. The stately Cape Dutch homestead is superbly decorated, and nestled within a private flower farm. It offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains, vineyards and olive groves. It really is a venue that has to be visited to be fully appreciated for it’s situation, context, stateliness, and unrivaled natural beauty.

Sarah + Adam : Bona Dea Private Estate - Hermanus

The incredibly well appointed, and magnificently situated Bona Dea Private Estate played host to Sarah and Adam's wedding celebrations in fine style. Sarah and Adam are both from Cape Town, but chose to tie the knot in the beautiful Hemel En Aarde valley near the famous whale watching town of Hermanus. 

The incredibly well appointed, and magnificently situated Bona Dea Private Estate played host to Sarah and Adam's wedding celebrations in fine style. Sarah and Adam are both from Cape Town, but chose to tie the knot in the beautiful Hemel En Aarde valley near the famous whale watching town of Hermanus. The views over the valley are nothing short of breathtaking, and their special day was not surprisingly, similar. The decor, flowers and wedding cake were all class, and definitely something to write home about, as was the delicious spread that started with mouthwatering canapés.

I was privileged enough to collaborate with two great gals at the Cape Royal Yacht Club. 

Gemma & Colin

Gemma & Colin hail from England and Zimbabwe respectively, but somehow met in Zambia, where they both live and work. Their extraordinary story culminated in a marvellous celebration of their love at the stunning Mosaic Sanctuary near Stanford. 

Jen & Richard

A superb spring weekend wedding celebration in the tranquil coastal town of Paternoster...
