As the reality that the wedding industry will probably be one of the last to reopen, really sinks in, we are channeling our inner scifi space geek (or were we just inspired by our Planetarium themed Pop Up?!) to explain how we plan to do things in the coming days/weeks/months before we are able to work, celebrate and love our...

Chances are you are feeling like a deer in the headlights. Like this is all a bad (bad) dream. If you haven’t already had to deal with the weight and reality of what this means for your business you soon will. Does it look like everyone else in the industry already has a plan? Has already made a power move?...
Depending on when your wedding is/was planned for will greatly change the level of warm fuzzy ‘oh this gives such great perspective to our day’ feels. You may have just had to cancel your day, have lost money or are exhausted from the constant barrel of messages being, asking you how you feel!? If this is happening you are probably...
Pop up weddings are on a mission to become totally waste free weddings. We are super passionate about this and have great plans to start and enable new businesses that use the wedding industry waste, facilitating workshops, gifting our post wedding flowers, using locally grown blooms and and and… A few years into marriage and a couple of months into...

This type of thinking normally then leads down the rabbit hole of, IF it’s not cheap and nasty then at...
Pop Up Weddings are so much more than a way for broke couples to get married (read our blog post that debunks this Pop Up’s equal Broke hoo ha here) or a well-dressed wedding sausage factory (admit it you where thinking it, too) The true heart behind Pop Up Weddings South Africa is so much deeper than the pricing, or...
