Describe the best wedding that happened at BosBoma?
There have been so many beautiful love stories, but one that truly stood out was a wedding planned in record time—less than two weeks!
A groom was transferred overseas on short notice by his work, and to take his fiancée with him, they had to get married. There was no time to waste! With excitement and a little bit of wedding magic, we helped them pull off a stunning, intimate celebration.
From the vows to the laughter, everything came together perfectly. The couple said “I do” just in time, and off they went—starting their new adventure as husband and wife in a brand-new country. It was proof that love always finds a way, no matter the deadline!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Plan for the marriage, not just the wedding.
Yes, the flowers, the dress, and the cake are exciting—but the best part? You're building a life together. So, while you’re choosing between roses or proteas, remember to choose each other—every day, for a lifetime.
And when things get overwhelming, just ask yourselves: "Will this matter when we're old, laughing together on our porch?" If not, take a deep breath, hold hands, and enjoy the ride!
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
The moment when the couple walks into their fully set-up reception—just the two of them—before anyone else sees it.
At our venue, we believe the wedding is about them, not just what the MOH, mom, or guests envision. That’s why our organiser listens closely to the bride and groom, gently balancing all the voices while making sure their dream comes to life.
We keep guests entertained with canapés elsewhere, while the couple gets a quiet, magical moment to soak in the beauty of their reception, just as they imagined it—lights twinkling, love in the air. They even get to enjoy a private bite at their bridal table before stepping into the whirlwind of hugs, congratulations, and celebration.
It’s a small touch, but it makes all the difference.
