Stories - Caroline Grewar Storytelling

For almost seven years, I have been living my passion: as a wedding celebrant, I guide couples through their special day in Switzerland and South Africa. During this time, I’ve had the privilege of accompanying countless couples to their “I do.” Whether bilingual, a Jewish inspired ceremony in collaboration with a Rabbi, or even with alpacas down the aisle – anything is possible! Here you’ll find a small selection of weddings where I had the honor of creating the ceremony.

Miriam & Nico, Rickety Bridge, Franschhoek, Südafrika

Eine Hochzeit mit so viel Herz und Emotionen! Miriam und Nico aus München hatten sich dafür entschieden, sich im südafrikanischen Sommer das Ja-Wort zu geben – und dieses mit einem ganz speziellen Ritual zu besiegeln, nämlich gemeinsam ein Bild zu malen. Es war einmalig!

Elena & Cedric, Relais Forte Benedek, Pastrengo IT

This couple from Zug, Switzerland has a deep connection to Northern Italy and the stunning Lake Garda region. It didn’t take long for them to decide: their wedding had to be celebrated amidst this picturesque landscape! And so it was – an intimate ceremony filled with love, followed by a vibrant celebration with friends and family. Every moment was simply magical.

Rebekka & Marc, Trotte Gailingen, Germany

For the third time, I had the pleasure of celebrating a wedding at the Trotte in Gailingen, right on the Rhine. The plan was to hold the ceremony among the vineyards, but the charming atmosphere of the Trotte provided an equally beautiful setting. Photographer Istvan and his team handled the challenging lighting conditions effortlessly, creating a stunning photo report of the day.

Henrietta & Vincent, Boschendal Wine Estate, Südafrika

A couple with German roots, yet a strong connection to South Africa. The relaxed celebration at the beautiful Boschendal Estate, together with their incredibly warm and joyful guests, will stay in my memory for a long time!

Simona & Michael, Vrede en Lust, Südafrika

Why get married in Schaffhausen when the South African Winelands could offer a unique kind of magic? Simona & Michi are big South Africa fans, and with their wedding, they fulfilled a longtime dream.
