What to Wear
LADIES
Bold, Vibrant & Expressive
Think bold hues, expressive prints and beautifully tailored formalwear. This is your excuse to wear the dress you've been waiting for the perfect occasion to bring out!
Please refrain from wearing black, brown, navy and grey.
GENTLEMEN
Sharp & Sophisticated
A matching suit with a blazer, trousers and a tie is the look we're after. Feel free to choose lighter fabrics or seasonal colours, while keeping the overall look polished and refined.
Please avoid chinos, khakis, denim, and mismatched jackets and trousers.

Summer Formal
A few notes
BLOCK HEELS
The majority of our wedding will take place on the lawn. For your own comfort, we recommend that ladies wear block heels.
PACK YOUR SNEAKERS
Everyone knows that our love for sneakers [almost] surpasses our love for each other. We invite you to change into your best dancing tekkies for a night of boogie once the dance floor has opened.
BRING SOMETHING WARM
Although the summer days on the farm can be warm, we ask that you bring a warm jacket for the evening as the Koo Valley nights can be notoriously chilly.
Wedding Gifts
Celebrating our wedding with the people we love is all we could really ask for. We don't have a traditional gift registry, but if you'd like to mark the occasion with a gift, we'd be incredibly grateful for a contribution towards our snowy honeymoon. Your generosity will help us make the most of this once-in-a-lifetime adventure, and we're so thankful for any contribution, no matter the size.

Accommodation
Accommodation in the Koo Valley is limited, so we'd love for as many of our guests as possible to stay in the area. All of our recommended accommodation options are just a 5–15 minute drive from the farm, making it easy to get to and from the celebrations. While staying in Montagu is certainly an option, please keep in mind that it requires a 30-minute drive through a narrow, winding mountain pass each way.
We've arranged rates for our guests at Langdam for a 1-night stay (the online booking system only allows for a 2-night minimum stay). Some of the options in the valley also only cater for 4 or more people. If you're interested in staying at Langdam (a mere 5-minute drive from the farm) or if you're looking for someone to share accommodation with, please get in touch with Josie.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Many accommodation options only allow check-in after 14:00. We have allocated time within our day for you to check-in between the ceremony and canapés. We encourage you to get in touch with your host to find out if an early check-in is possible if you would prefer to do so before the ceremony starts.
Where to find us
The farm is easy to find, whether you're travelling from the N1 or from Montagu.
If you're coming from the N1, you'll travel for approximately 43km after turning off the highway. The farm entrance will be on your left, about 5 km past Oupa Batt se Winkel.
If you're travelling from Montagu, you'll travel for 35km once you've passed the golf course. The farm entrance will be on your right, approximately 1 km past Laerskool Koo.
We'll also pin the exact location on the map below to make your journey as easy as possible. We can't wait to welcome you!
