Maid of Honor
We decided to be Best Friends one day in High School and our friendship grew into its title. Its a standing competition between myself and Jess, and Nate and Seeps as to who is better friends (obviously its us).
Bridesmaid
I got her for my birthday when I turned 2 (she was born on my second birthday) and she's been adding laughter and excitement to my life ever since. Sisters are best when they can double up as best friends and Lansea certainly can.
Bridesmaid
We were our teacher's worst nightmare in Primary school with our very exclusive 'Double Trouble' club (looking back why did our parents not shut that down) and she has kept my life interesting ever since. She's spent a good few years travelling and I couldn't be happier she's back in the beautiful SA!
Bridesmaid
I hit the jackpot with the most supportive big sister who has always been there for me in every way including by desperately trying to improve my fashion sense. She is also always there for a laugh and good company and is another sister and best friend package all-in-one.
Bridesmaid
Annoyingly good at everything but especially at being a friend. She's been keeping me on my toes since high school where we hung out at the back of maths class or after school on a run or a cycle. Fellow lover of Taylor Swift.
Bridesmaid
Up for an adventure or a chat over a glass of wine on any day and at any time. We've been partner's in crime for most of our lives (friends since primary school and then digs mates at UCT) we are basically sisters.
Best Man
The year is 1995 and we were the leads in the primary school play. Some 25 years later and we went through junior school, high school and varsity together.
Groomsman
A gentlemen, a scholar and the best golf partner a weekend warrior like myself could ask for. Wasn't long before we showed up our partners as the real 'best friends'.
Groomsman
A younger, less good looking version of myself but a friend who has always been there to drop a few pearls of wisdom when they were duly needed, especially through varsity.
Groomsman
A friend for every occasion and never dull a moment. A real value add when there is a guitar and a case of quarts lying around.
Groomsman
Once I looked past the fact my varsity roommate was an Arsenal and Stormers fan I realised just how loyal and entertaining he was.
Family of the Groom
The ensemble cast of the Evans Family: Male Lead - Big Dave Evans Female Lead - Jane 'Mother Goose' Evans Rising Star - Jodi Evans
Family of the bride
Irene - Mother of the bride: Quirky, fun, bright and un-apologetically herself. You will find her ripping up the dance floor and probably with a list of song requests. Leon - Father of the bride: Funny, friendly and laid back. Always up for a beer and a chat and always armed with a dad-joke or three.
Master of Ceremonies
We had enquired about the high profile sports presenter from East Coast (Nick Tatham) to be our MC but he was unavailable, so we had to settle for his brother.
