The colour scheme for the day was shades of pink with touches of rose gold.
Nico and Janke chose Whispering Thorns as their wedding venue because of the atmosphere and they also loved the trees and natural beauty that it had to offer.
Whispering Thorns supplied the décor. Janke wanted succulents to be featured. To commemorate their wedding day, Nico and Janke planted an Acacia together.
Janke bought her wedding dress at Lady Marmalade and Nico got his suit at Eurosuit
Janke’s make-up was done by Estie’s Nail And Beauty, and she opted to do her hair herself.
