Johan & Marissa decided on a small, intimate wedding on the west coast in a small town called Paternoster at the Gelukkie Wedding Venue.  They said their vows under a beautiful, majestic tree and treated their guests to a wonderful evening of dining and celebrating.  We took the wedding portraits on the nearby beach in some ice-cold wind, but the stunning sunset made it all worth it!
