Now for some photos...


Winton House - For some history on this place (amazing stuff) then click here
The fact that the build was start in the 1000 AD was just amazing !


Just to show you the size of the estate - the farmhouse accommodation is the little cluster or trees in the far fields on the other side of the thick line of trees.


The actual firework at the wedding were just UNREAL


The first dance


C & my four poster bed


our HUGE room - please note the detailed plaster ceiling work that was done 30 years before Jan van Riebeeck landed at the Cape !!! ie 1620 - that is just crazy to me.

The fireplace and rest of the room

@Po - yeah it was all very old school. everything in that house was original and the lord and lady of the family line live there. it just blew my mind as a designer - I normally see these things in museums! Even the paintings of people like mary queen of scots are original and were actually sat for by those people.

@kitty Cat - It was a stunning dress and she pulled it off so well!! I think it was a great balance of traditional and not too over the top frou frou like.
