Joburg weddings sure are stunning. Whether you're planning a wedding or just a fan of love and enjoy seeing it celebrated, we love it when people share their big days.
Whether they've blown the budget or chosen a more intimate setting. it's always great to see how different people do it. Some of our faves got married last year and we can’t stop thinking about their nuptials.
Not in a weird way, we promise. We've rounded up some of the most beautiful weddings posted on Instagram from some prominent South Africans who got married last year. Feast your eyes on these!

View this post on InstagramWhen it comes to Joburg weddings, this was one for the books. The former YoTV presenter tied the knot with Miss South Africa 2015 in July last year. Their romance has played out on social media and had the whole country rooting for them from the start. The couple had a white wedding as well as a traditional one that celebrated Liesl being welcomed to the Mthombeni family. Pictures of Liesl in traditional wear were a subject of most reposts on social media platforms. They were more low key with the picture roll-out of the white wedding - posting them a month after the actual ceremony. It looked like a very intimate affair with close friends and family. The bride looked exquisite in a one-armed number sourced by the Wedding Boutique, while the groom was quite dapper in the traditional black and white tux.

View this post on InstagramThere are few things cuter than a pregnant bride in our books and musician and comedian Davina Goliath made a stunning one. The violinist married the comedian in the most chill way. She donned a beautiful vintage satin dress and paired it with a funky pair of white Comme de Garcons x Converse sneakers. The groom also wore a similar pair in black. She veered from tradition with an understated hat in place of a veil. The pair noticeably did not have a bridal party. To turn up the cuteness levels another notch, they got married on their fifth anniversary together. We love their wedding pictures, which are so distinctly Joburg. Taken by Luke Bennet (@lukeswork), they feature our tree-lined suburban streets and our favourite, the red BMW or gusheshe, which is a piece of Joburg's cultural fabric.A post shared by Davina Gordon Goliath (@davinagordongoliath)

View this post on InstagramMogane won SA Idols in 2015 and won his longtime love’s heart forever in May 2021. Yes, love makes us gooey and cheesy. And we couldn’t get enough of their union, shared on Instagram. The pair got married at Oakfield Farm back in September. They were the picture of class and elegance at their white wedding. The bride wore a beautiful low cut dress with hints of modesty with the long sleeves. She was accompanied by some of her best friends who looked chic in elegant white bridesmaid dresses. She thanked them on an Instagram post that read: “If I had to do it again, I’d still do it with ya’ll. Thank you for the sisterhood and your consistency ❤️ I love you guys so much.
