1. Is there accommodation available on-site?

Yes! Florence Guest Farm has accommodation available for up to 80 guests. Rooms will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure to book early if you’d like to stay on-site. Accommodation is to be booked and paid with Kyle/Chloe. Please do not contact the venue for any accommodation related queries.

2. When can I arrive, and what should I expect on the weekend?

You’re welcome to arrive on Friday, May 16th, 2025, to kick off the weekend with pre-wedding celebrations. We have a casual get-together planned that evening, with plenty of time to mingle and relax before the big day and playing some games to break the ice. The ceremony and reception will take place on Saturday, May 17th, and we’re planning a relaxed brunch on Sunday morning for anyone staying on-site.

3. What kind of food will be served at the wedding?

We are having a beautiful buffet-style reception, featuring a mix of local and international dishes to suit all tastes. There will be plenty of options for vegetarians and anyone with dietary restrictions — just let us know when you RSVP, and we’ll ensure you have something delicious to enjoy.

4. What should I wear?

We have chosen an all-black dress code for our wedding to create an elegant and timeless atmosphere. We kindly ask that all guests wear black attire—whether it’s a stunning black dress, a sharp black suit, or anything in between. The only exceptions are the bride and groom, who will, of course, be in their special outfits!

We can't wait to see everyone dressed in chic, sophisticated black to help make this day truly unforgettable.

5. Can I bring a plus one?

To help us manage the details of our special day, we kindly ask that only those guests specifically addressed on the invitation attend. As much as we'd love to invite everyone, due to venue capacity and logistical considerations, we are unable to accommodate additional plus ones.

Thank you for understanding, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

6. Are children allowed?

In order to create a more intimate and relaxed atmosphere, we have decided to make our wedding an adults-only celebration. The only exception will be the children in the bridal party, who will, of course, be a part of the festivities.

We hope you understand and appreciate our decision.

7. What time can check in from?

If you're coming on Friday, you can arrive anytime from 2 PM onwards. If you're arriving on Saturday, you can come at any time that works best for you!

8. Will the ceremony and reception be indoors or outdoors?

The ceremony will take place outdoors, weather permitting. If the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll relocate it indoors. However, the reception will be held indoors.

9. Is there a wedding registry?

As we live abroad, it would be difficult for us to take any household items with us. While we don’t expect any gifts, if you would like to give us something, we would greatly appreciate contributions towards our house and honeymoon fund. Your generosity means the world to us, and we are so grateful for your support as we start this new chapter together.

10. What will the weather be like?

In May, the weather in Chrissiesmeer, South Africa, is typically cool and autumnal. Average temperatures range from about 8°C in the early mornings and evenings to around 20°C during the day. It’s a great time of year to enjoy the outdoors with pleasant, mild conditions. While rainfall is possible, it's generally not as frequent as in the summer months, making May a relatively dry month. However, it’s always a good idea to be prepared for cooler evenings and mornings, so bringing layers or a light jacket is recommended.

11. What time should I be at seated?

The ceremony will begin at 2:30 PM. Please make sure to arrive before then to be seated for 2PM If you're unable to arrive in time, we recommend staying overnight the night before to ensure you don't miss it!

12. When must I RSVP by?

Please RSVP by the 17th of April 2025.

13. Is there anything else we should know?

We’re so excited to celebrate with you! Be sure to pack comfortable shoes for dancing, bring a jacket or sweater for the evening (as it can get chilly in the evenings), and most importantly, come ready to have fun and make memories. We can't wait to share this unforgettable weekend with all of you!
