Shane and Francisco got married at the beautiful Starndkombuis in Yzerfontein along the West Coast. You can’t get married closer to the beach and ocean than at Strandkombuis!

The wind was absolutely howling, so the ceremony wasn’t held on the beach, but it didn’t take away how incredibly special the day was. In fact, I think it added to the day. Made it even more special and memorable.

I really enjoyed working with the FJS team for the first time. I wonder if they are also still trying to get rid of the sand in their gear bags :)

Here’s a few favourites from the day …
