Editors Voice December 2009 |
2009 - Summer in South Afirica and winter in Germany is upon us and with it come the winds of change. Our Location Annett remains in Lübeck close to Hamburg in Germany and she is busy with the forthcoming wedding shows. We have enjoyed some successful shows and events in Germany throughout the year and we are looking forward to reaping the benefits of this hard work in 2010. Thank you... Thank you to the local and international Tour Operators, who have supported us and allowed us to assist them in ensuring successful weddings for their clients, and thank you to the fabulous venues and service providers on which we so rely for your incredible service, without you all it would be an impossible task to arrange weddings for our International wedding couples. Some of our 2009 Weddings Serena Beach Hotel in Kenya put together a splendid, and romantic wedding for Damien & Jamilah from New York, USA. Wolwedans Dune Lodge in Namibia offered the perfect Just Us solution for a wedding in the Dunes for our Swiss bride Corinne and her hubby. This week-end we have a couple from Holland having a sunset wedding ceremony in Cape Town on the beach. December is a wonderful month to be married and this year we have some South Africans heading to Namibia to enjoy a romantic and adventurous holiday, during which they will tie the knot in style at Okapuka Ranch and on Christmas we have a couple all the way from Germany heading to Chestnut Country Lodge for an intimate ceremony. We wish them and all our other 2009 brides and grooms (not mentioned) happiness and blessings for the future. AWARDS and more Thank you's. We are proud to say that we received a Gold AWARD from SABIA, The South African Bridal Industry Academy.
