James and Simoné first crossed paths while pursuing their culinary dreams, bonding over their mutual passion for food. As their journey unfolded, they built a life filled with shared dreams, laughter, and plans for the future, leading to the joyful addition of their dog, Ozzy. In May 2025, during a memorable trip to Paternoster, James proposed, with Ozzy by his side to mark the occasion.
We would be delighted to have you celebrate our wedding day with us.
With joy from the van der Merwe and Nell families, we celebrate James and Simoné as they come together as one and share this special moment with you.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Simoné.
With love,
James & Simoné
