“Florals for Days – Garden Weddings in Cape Town That Stole Our Hearts”

💐 Love Story: Tessa & Marc’s Garden Romance in the Heart of Constantia

When Tessa, a Cape Town-born interior designer, met Marc, a French-South African winemaker, at a friend’s birthday picnic in Kirstenbosch Gardens, it felt like something out of a Nicholas Sparks novel—minus the drama, plus a lot of cheese and wine.

Their relationship bloomed slowly but deeply. They spent weekends hiking in the mountains, cooking with ingredients from the local market, and visiting gardens around the Cape, where Marc would quiz Tessa on plant names (she always won). So when he proposed in a secluded part of the Green Point Urban Park—surrounded by white roses—it was only fitting that their wedding be all about the florals.

🌸 The Wedding: A Blooming Affair at a Private Constantia Estate

Tessa and Marc chose an intimate estate tucked away in Constantia, where olive trees lined the drive and the garden was a symphony of colour.

Tessa’s vision was clear: florals everywhere. Not just in the bouquets, but spilling from arches, climbing up chandeliers, and woven through every detail.

“I wanted it to feel like we were walking through a living painting,” said Tessa. “Soft pastels, bold blooms, and a sense that nature had completely taken over.”

They worked closely with a local floral designer who brought their vision to life using blush garden roses, coral peonies, lisianthus, ranunculus, and trailing wisteria. Marc added a personal touch: sprigs of lavender from his family’s wine farm in each boutonnière.

🌿 The Ceremony: Nature’s Cathedral

The ceremony was held beneath a massive oak tree, where a circular floral arch framed the couple as they exchanged heartfelt vows. Petals were scattered along the aisle, and live acoustic music floated through the air.

As Tessa walked down the aisle with her father, barefoot in soft grass and sunlight dappling her lace train, Marc teared up before she even reached him.

🥂 The Reception: Candlelight, Wine & Wildflowers

The reception was held on the estate’s lawn under a clear marquee filled with hanging floral installations and soft fairy lights. Long wooden tables were dressed with vintage crockery, garden-fresh centrepieces, and hand-painted name cards. Each menu was tied with ribbon and a single pressed bloom.

The food? Seasonal, fresh, and local. The wine? From Marc’s own family estate in Franschhoek. And the vibe? Intimate, joyful, and full of genuine connection.

Their first dance was to a French love song—“La Vie en Rose”—played on the violin. The scent of jasmine and roses filled the night air as guests sipped bubbly and danced barefoot under the stars.

🌺 The Everlasting Memory

What made this wedding unforgettable wasn’t just the florals (though, let’s be honest—they were spectacular). It was the feeling. The softness. The authenticity. The love that wrapped around every guest like a warm, flower-scented breeze.

“We didn’t want a perfect wedding. We wanted a real one,” said Marc. “And we’ll remember it for the rest of our lives—not just the way it looked, but the way it felt.”
