&Beyond Phinda Forest Lodge Executive Chef and the couple’s long-time friend, Sam Mnguni, regaled the crowd with his ever-entertaining and from-the-heart stories, as he announced the night’s decadent six-course menu on behalf of Executive Chef Andries Ndwandwe, also a dear friend of the bride and groom.

The intimate ceremony took place under the dappled canopy of a grove of Tamboti trees and guests were seated on white chairs beneath the tree shade while Nicci and Mark exchanged their tearful vows. Their big day was to be classy and elegant, yet fun and highly social. Although they had recently moved back to Johannesburg, they were both adamant that the wedding was to take place at their beloved ‘home’, &Beyond Phinda Private Game Reserve.
