You certainly have a wonderful talent for putting the bride and groom at their ease and making the wedding ceremony a gracious, happy and memorable occasion. May we wish you all the best in the New Year and the years that follow. You can be sure that if ever the question of a marriage officer arises in our hearing we will heartily recommend that you officiate at the ceremony.”

Jul lewer ‘n 10uit10 diens en ons beveel jul defnitief met die grootste liefde aan vir enige paartjie wat op trou staan.”
– Baie liefde. Shaun en Marycke

Hi Riaan,

I just wanted to thank you again for the very important role you played in our marriage journey.
From your first email to the meeting at Tygervalley, and the signing of the documents at our home, you were an absolute blessing. Thank you for your sensitivity and the importation of your wisdom. We will look back on the process fondly.
I am attaching 2 photos from the ceremony day on Saturday. It was perfect and the weather played along nicely.
I wish you all the best with your move to the platteland and I trust that you and your wife will be a blessing to everyone you encounter as you continue to follow your calling.

All the best,
– Crystal and Jarvis Ball
