23.2.23
In late February last year, a date lined up that got a lot of couples excited. 22.2.22. Quite a few of these couples only realized the beauty and synchronicity of the date the day before. Literally. We received a wave of requests from couples looking to get married… “tomorrow”.
At Elope Cape Town, we’re all for spontaneity but we’re also a fan of planning. The one (the planning) allows the magic (the spontaneity) to happen. So we started brainstorming and planning… We looked ahead and studied the 2023 calendar to see if there were any other dates coming up that also had a certain ring to them – a certain je ne sais quoi.
And, what do you know, right there in the beginning of the year, February offered the goods.
23.2.23
I mean, that’s a good looking date if we ever saw one! Embroider that on a veil or the inside of your jacket, or better yet engrave it on a ring, and let’s get you MARRIED!
Enter Elope Vegas Style in Cape Town. That name alone should tell you a lot but there are some important details and differences we want to emphasize. Firstly, a Vegas Style Wedding may conjure up images of a drive through style wedding with no personal touches. Our plan is different. At Elope Cape Town, we place a lot of importance on ceremonies and making this singular moment in your lives special. Your meaningful ceremony will take place in an exquisite setting, with a flower arch and – this is an important differentiator – you get to have close family and friends there, too.
So it’s all the wonderful elements of an elopement (less pressure, more time with your lover) and all the best parts of a wedding (sharing it with your loved ones and doing it in style). And did we mention the date? It’s rather special, too.
23.2.23
Here’s how it works:
As a couple, you pick the hour on 23.3.23 that you want to get hitched. Because other couples will also be getting married on the same day, at different times, the costs (such as venue and flower arch and a great photographer) are divided between you, which makes it much more reasonable! You get all the bells and whistles, for a fraction of what you’d ordinarily pay.
Here’s a full list of what the package includes:
- Co-ordination by the incredible Lindi
- A gorgeous forest setting on the beautiful Gemodesrus Estate outside Stellenbosch
- Elopement Ceremony by Lara
- Signing and paperwork, including lodging at home affairs (also by Lara)
- Elopement Photographer (you can have a look at some of Kyle’s work in this blog post below). Kyle will capture the ceremony and then take you for a 20 minute couple shoot. He’ll then deliver 50 high-res edited photographs via a stunning digital album which you can share with families and friends to announce, “We eloped. 23.2.23.”
- Flower Arch by Dane Verwey
- A styled bouquet in the floral colors
- Bottle of Bubbly
- Up to 8 Guests
