Radio and TV presenter, Bailey Schneider and DJ Sox give us an exclusive look into their beautiful wedding weekend.
THE ENGAGEMENT
I started laughing and told him I was kidding. He then started saying the most beautiful things that I will treasure forever and in my head I was thinking a trillion thoughts a second: Wait. Hang on a second. Is this…? Is this what I think it is? Oh my God! It is!!!! Bailey! Concentrate on what he’s saying! It’s happening NOW! Oh my God!!!! Before I knew it, he was down on one knee and his hand was in the pocket he’d been fidgeting in and pulled out my beautiful engagement ring. All I could answer was: “Are you serious?” a few times over and eventually he packed up laughing and said: “No, I’m joking. I’m taking the ring back!”
THE WEDDING WEEKEND
It was actually a 3-day affair and one of the best weekends of my life. It started on 4 March 2016 at the Greek Orthodox Church, which is absolutely spectacular – it’s painted in murals from floor to ceiling. After the ceremony, everyone made their way to Greyton and checked into their respective accommodation. That evening we had a casual meet and greet welcome party with a Build Your Own Burger Bar. It was a fantastic ice breaker.
THE WEDDING DAY
We chose Elandskloof Farm in Greyton because we both fell in love with it’s beauty. It’s on an apple farm, with a river running through, gorgeous forest like areas and it’s romantic stone barn, which was a perfect reception area for us to create the party we imagined. Since we were having a destination wedding with our friends and family coming from all over the world, we loved that it could accommodate half of our guests.
