Our wedding...

Apologies for the break in blogging, but things here have been rather busy. I guess being newlywed may have something to do with that too! Candace and I are now back on the Mercy Ship after our wedding and honeymoon in Cape Town. To satisfy those who want to see some wedding photos, I upload a few at the bottom of this post.

Candace arrived in Cape Town the week before our wedding and in the midst of wedding preparation, we managed to take a drive out to Blouberg (Afrikaans: Blue Mountain) and met up with an old Mercy Ships friend and took some lovely photos. The mountain certainly makes a magnificent backdrop.


Our wedding took place on the 4th of March and it was the most lovely day. It was amazing to watch how things came together as the day approached. God definitely was looking out for us and providing for us from the tiniest details to the largest plans. We had a small ceremony in the back garden of my family home, and it was beautiful. I'll let the photos do most of the talking. (All wedding photos were taken by my cousin who did a fantastic job! Thanks, Adrian!)
