Their dream became a reality with a stunning destination wedding at the iconic Casa Labia in Cape Town, South Africa.

A Venue Steeped in History
Located in the heart of Muizenberg (in Cape Town), Casa Labia is not just a venue but a significant cultural site with quite a story to tell in history. Constructed in 1929 by Count and Countess Natale Labia, this mansion was built to reflect the splendour of 18th-century Venice, the Count’s birthplace. Casa Labia now epitomises grace and historical importance, making it an exceptional and romantic setting for contemporary love stories like that of Tyler and Darren, planned by a Cape Town wedding planner.

With the expertise of the Cape Town wedding planner The Wedding Fairy, this vision came to fruition at Casa Labia, merging timeless elegance with local allure.
Florals: A Touch of South Africa
Proteas, South Africa’s national flower, were the centrepiece of the floral arrangements crafted by The Grand Botanist. These striking blooms added a bold, yet refined, touch to the decor, perfectly embodying the couple’s desired aesthetic.
