Splendid Affairs is a free bridal publication packed with inspirational ideas, wedding planning tips and real life weddings.

This month’s bridal fashion shoot took place at Shepstone Gardens, featuring bridal wear by Dimity and Wedding Connexion. Sam Scaife of Lashline exercised her make-up artistry on our models, whilst  Kat Forsyth’s photographic talent can be seen throughout the pages of this digital magazine.

This wedding magazine is put together by Evegenia Poplett of Splendid Affairs Wedding Planning Company.

I don’t think so… Seems to me beauty is very much in the eye of the photographer, brilliant editing, and a little gift called Photoshop…

So I’m super excited, have all my bridal magazines with post-it’s sticking out at every venue with a view, and I am ready to start clicking my way to my perfect venue… Or so I thought.

The first page opens with scenes of dewdrops, glistening on a leaf, the sun behind it, getting ready to burst from its cocoon of night… And I’m thinking, yes but where would we have the reception? Surely they don’t expect me to fly all the way to Cape Town, for a more serious look, based on a beautifully decorated biscuit, sitting snuggly next to its teacup? I get it, you serve tea in pretty nice cups, but what does the room look like where we will spend our first night as Mr. & Mrs. together? Read more

But now what? Where do you start with something so big? I mean, movies have been made, books have been written, fairy tales have been told and retold a million times over. Someone feeling a little bit of pressure? I mean, it is, after all, my wedding day! The day little girls across the world dream of, the day I get to be a queen the entire day, and in my books, the 3 weeks leading up to it as well, I mean you have to milk it a bit… The day I have to plan?

Its been  a while since we posted a real wedding on BridesBuzzing.com, but this one had such fabulous decor, we just couldn’t resist!

“I just wanted to share some pics of my amazing day with all the other brides out there. I planned a lot and found it difficult to find good inspiration out there with wedding mags being so expensive. I got married at Shepstone Gardens in Johannesburg with By Word of Mouth doing my food, flowers and decor.” Michelle
