We’re Getting Married
in Cape Town
We know asking you to travel to the other side of the world is no small thing, and we are so grateful for every one of you making the journey. To make it as easy and enjoyable as possible, we've put together everything you need to plan your trip — flights, neighborhoods, things to do, and more.
Cape Town holds a very special place in our hearts, and we couldn't imagine celebrating this moment anywhere else. It is a city of extraordinary natural beauty, incredible food and wine, fascinating history, and some of the warmest people you'll encounter anywhere in the world. We want you to arrive not just for the wedding, but to fall in love with this place the way we have. Whether you're extending your stay to explore the Peninsula, sip wine in Franschhoek, or simply sit on a beach watching the Atlantic — we hope this trip becomes something you'll talk about long after the dancing is done.
We know the flights are not short,nor cheap. And we know that choosing to be there with us means a great deal of time, effort, and planning on your part.
From the bottom of our hearts — thank you. It means everything to us.
We've put together detailed guides on every aspect of the trip so you can spend less time researching and more time looking forward to it.

This includes everything from flight routes, best times to book, where to stay, how to get around Cape Town, things to do and see, and general tips and safety.
A Brief History of Cape Town (PDF)
For those who love arriving somewhere already knowing a little of its story — this one's for you. The history of Cape Town, and of South Africa, is far richer and more complex than any short document could capture, but this is an honest introduction to a complicated past, with strength and resilience running through every chapter of it.
If you're thinking about extending your trip with a safari in Kruger National Park, this guide will cover everything you need to choose between a private lodge experience and a self-drive adventure. We'll be honest — we're partial to the self-drive. There's something incredibly special about navigating the park at your own pace, and it comes at a fraction of the cost of a private lodge. Whether you go guided or do it yourself, everything you need to plan will be in this document.
Spotify Playlist
We've put together a playlist to get you in the spirit — a mix of South African artists, Cape Town sounds, and a few songs that have soundtracked our own time there. Put it on while you're packing, planning, or simply daydreaming about the trip ahead. We will continually add songs to this playlist throughout the year!
