Town hall turned into bridal wonderland

MOSSEL BAY NEWS - The Mossel Bay and Garden Route Spring Wedding and Bridal Expo took place at the Mossel Bay Town Hall last weekend.

The town hall was transformed into a bridal wonderland.

A number of companies and individuals involved in the wedding industry exhibited at the show.

Fashion shows

There were fashion shows on Saturday, 31 August, and Sunday, 1 September, and several attractive prizes were given away.

The annual show is the brainchild of wedding planner Marius Kruger, bringing together the best vendors in the wedding industry in the Garden Route to present their services and products to the public.

Chauffeur-driven ride

The other highly sought-after prize was a chauffeur-driven ride in a premier Mercedes-Benz vehicle on one's wedding day, sponsored by Stanmar Motors in George.

It was won at the show by soon-to-be-wed Paul Els and Doné Ballack.

Kruger himself gave away a 50% discount voucher for a wedding planned by himself as a prize.

Besides this, goodie bags, flowers, vouchers and more were won by the delighted show goers.
