Hello everyone. 

All these texts will be in English because of the different languages everyone speak, so English will be the easies. 


Here comes some useful information about pre-wedding, during the wedding weekend and post-wedding. I will start from the beginning, informations such as "when should I be in CT to join your minibuses" you will find below.

Quick info
- Wedding: 14th of March 2020.
- Where? In Groote Braak, Western Cape. 

Flights: 
- Where to fly?
The best would be if all of you fly to Cape Town instead of George (which is closer to the venue). This is because there's lots of flight to CT and they are much cheaper. Also, the plan is to meet everyone in Cape Town and drive together up to the venue - which is around 400km from Cape Town. 

Airlines? 
The best airlines by far is Emirates and Qatar Airways, but Ethiopian, KLM and Turkish Airlines are also good. Keep in mind if you fly with Ethiopian, take your yellow book with you since they can ask if you have taken a Yellow Fever shot. The most airlines have flights that leave in the evening time from Stockholm, those are the best.

Transportation?
- Rent a car: which is not expensive at all. You can pre-book them or rent at the terminal. There are cars from 800kr for 7 days, where you can fit 4 people. If you rent a car, you can decide to drive yourself up to Groote Braak (near Mossel Bay where the venue is) or join us. We will then drive together and stop at awesome view points and restayrants along the way.

- Come with us: We will rent a few minibuses and take all you guests (mainly all of you foreigners who dont have an own car) who wants to up the coast, and we will stop along the way to beautiful viewpoints. But remember, if you do come in our minibus, you also need to stick to our plans. More of that will come in a later post (we will do a small roadtrip after the wedding. When we do the road trip we will share the cost of the van/vans and petrol, which wont be expensive since we are so many. More of that later.) Please let me know if you are interested in joining our minibuses!

- When are we leaving up the coast from Cape Town? We will leave Thursday morning 7am ish - 12th of March. This is so that we can drive up the whole day and enjoy the ride and stop at places along the way. Trust me, all of you are gonna want to stop. The Garden Route is absolutely gorgeous. So if you want to drive with us or come with us in Minibuses, be in CT latest evening 11th of March.


Places to stay: 
- Cape Town/Gordons Bay: Our recommendations is to book an accommodation in Gordons Bay. Gordons Bay is around 40km from the central of CT, but its safer and has everything nearby. Beautiful beaches, restaurants, whale watching, the famous Clarence drive, wine yards around 10km away etc. Its also where we will stay and will help with recommandations or where to stay. The exakt places will come in the next post.


There are ofc other places than Gordons Bay, such as: Muizenberg, Table View, Camps Bay, Sea Point. Ask me if you are curious for places. 

- Groote Braak: Places to stay near the wedding venue will come shortly.

What to do on Friday before the wedding? 
- So there's endless of activities near our Wedding Venue such as Monkey Land, Tiger Kingdom, Zip Lineing, Water Raffting, Shark Cageing (Swimming with sharks), Safaris and much much more. I will post recommandations of activities in another post.


I think that was the post important information to begin with. Please ask me if you have any questions, which you will have. There is a comment section on this post, please ask there and everyone can share the questions and answers.
