26 May Mika & Damon
Mika and Damon got married at the stunning new Country Grand in Franschhoek. This was one of their first weddings a week after they opened. This was such a special wedding as we had to postpone due to Covid twice. Mika and Damon is from the UK and most of their guest travelled from abroad.
When we started planning this wedding the venue stayed the same but restaurant changed twice and we had to adapt the creative. Mika wanted a warm and inviting look and feel with lots of warm & rich colours, greenery, dark woods and lighting. The space catered perfectly for this creative and we had the most amazing time with Designer Collective creating this magical creative.
The couple wanted the evening to be about celebrations with good food and music. Resound Music Agency ensure of this with a String Quartet for the Ceremony, Marimba Band for Pre Drinks and the lovely Van Der Aven Band keeping the dance floor packed.

Review:
We hired Elzahn to plan my daughter’s wedding in South Africa as we are based in the UK. We had no idea at the time what a long and challenging process it was going to prove due to Covid. This threw in many obstacles including a postponement and the restaurant at the venue changing hands twice. I cannot express how grateful we are to Elzahn for her professional approach, fabulous organisation and finding solutions to all the hurdles thrown in her way in a timely, enthusiastic and efficient way. She understood exactly what we were trying to achieved and delivered it to a standard much higher than we could have hoped for. Our guests were blown away. Elzahn gave us many choices of her tried and tested suppliers, brought her experience and expertise to solving every problem, was always communicative and skillful in her approach. The day ran more smoothly than any other event I have been to. Elzahn took all the stress out of it for us. I cannot recommend Le Fox weddings and events highly enough.
