Kamogelo’s and Gomolemo proposal in Umhlanga

Love has a way of creating moments that take your breath away, and for Kamogelo and Gomolemo, one such moment happened on a recent trip to Durban. What began as a birthday getaway turned into a life-changing experience, beautifully orchestrated by a man ready to turn his longtime love into his fiancée.

Kamogelo had planned every detail in secret, telling Gomolemo they were flying to Durban as part of her birthday celebrations. Excited and unsuspecting of anything to the contrary, she packed her bags for what she thought would be a weekend of sun, sea, and sweet moments. But what waited behind the door of their hotel suite would make her heart stop.

As they walked into the room, Gomolemo was met with a beautiful scene straight out of a romantic film. The ceiling above them was covered in floating red balloons. Fairy lights twinkled softly, and there were pictures of their favourite dates over the years that served as a wonderful nostalgic trip down memory lane for them.

The centerpiece was a simple but powerful message: “Will You Marry Me?” spelled out in illuminated letters, surrounded by petals and candles. Gomolemo gasped, her hands flying to her mouth as the realisation set in. Kamogelo dropped to one knee, holding out the ring that would seal their future together, he made a speech. She said yes with tears in her eyes and a smile stretching from ear to ear.

But the surprise didn’t end there. A professional photographer, hiding in the wings, stepped forward to capture the proposal. The couple then enjoyed an engagement photoshoot, with the city skyline and crashing waves of Umhlanga as their backdrop. Every image radiated joy, intimacy, and pure love.

Kamogelo’s thoughtful planning, the sentimental details, and the perfect ocean view setting, came together to create an unforgettable proposal that felt like a fairytale start to their forever. What started as a birthday celebration turned into the beginning of a new chapter, a story they will tell for the rest of their lives.

Prenolan and Serisha proposal in Umhlanga

On the 16th March 2019, Prenolan and Serisha got engaged!

Prenolan contacted us in the beginning of March in order to chat about the ideas that he had in mind for proposing to his girlfriend Serisha. As he knew what he wanted and had a budget and date set, the arrangements worked out quickly and smoothly and everything was in place for his perfect proposal.

He told Serisha that he had booked a photoshoot for them in a beautiful park so she was all dressed and ready and had no idea that anything else out of the ordinary was planned for the rest of the evening. The weather played along well and it was a gorgeous balmy evening so the stage was set.

They arrived for their photoshoot and had a lovely & relaxed time together. Thereafter, they decided to go out for dinner and on arrival at the restaurant they went onto the viewing deck on the rooftop. As they looked over at the exquisite ocean view and Umhlanga pier, they saw both their families on the grass verge down below, holding up the “Marry Me” sign. Serisha’s reaction and response was everything that Prenolan was hoping for, he got down on bended knee and asked the love of his life to be his wife, SHE SAID YES!!!

The photographer magically appeared to continue with the photoshoot and the newly engaged couple proceeded downstairs to the private dining area for celebratory drinks with their families.

We had decorated the private dining area to make it not only intimate and romantic, filled with fairy lights, candles and roses, but also added special touches which made it personal for them as a couple. A magical atmosphere was created for them and the memories of this special evening will last forever!

Once family left, Prenolan and Serisha stayed to enjoy a delectable dinner at this Platinum Award winning fine dining establishment.

It has been wonderful working with Prenolan and we are proud to have been chosen to plan this very happy and exciting occasion for him and Serisha.

Prenolan and Serisha proposal in Umhlanga was stunning! Congratulations to you both, we wish them everything of the very best for a wonderful future together.
