Jason and Chanel’s micro wedding at Nazareth House Chapel was intimate, calm, and filled with sincerity, centred around their shared faith and the commitment they made to one another. If you’re dreaming of a small, heartfelt wedding in Pretoria, this is one you’ll want to linger over.
An Intimate Pretoria Micro Wedding
Nazareth House Chapel is a gem in Pretoria, Gauteng, especially for couples planning a more personal wedding or elopement. Tucked away, but still in the city, the chapel offers a peaceful and reverent atmosphere that feels perfectly suited to intimate ceremonies.
Jason and Chanel chose to keep their day beautifully simple, sharing it with just a handful of their nearest and dearest.
A Sincere Catholic Ceremony at Nazareth House Chapel
The heart of this wedding was undoubtedly the ceremony. Their Catholic wedding ceremony at Nazareth House Chapel was full of meaning, celebrating not only their love for each other but also their shared faith.
Moments like these are a reminder of how powerful simplicity can be. The quiet prayers, gentle glances, and emotion woven through the ceremony created an atmosphere that felt incredibly genuine. Photographing ceremonies like this is always an honour, especially when the focus is so clearly on faith, commitment, and connection.
Portraits Around Nazareth House
After the ceremony, we spent some time capturing portraits in and around Nazareth House, making the most of the peaceful surroundings and timeless architecture. The florals were understated and elegant, soft pink roses for the bride and orchids and baby’s breath adding just the right touch of romance in the chapel.
Jason and Chanel were completely at ease together, which made the portrait session feel relaxed and natural. These quieter moments, just after the ceremony, often end up being some of the most meaningful images of the day.
A Wedding Day with Personal Touches
One of the most unique details of the day was their wedding car, a Ferrari. Jason and Chanel both work for Ferrari, and incorporating it into their wedding was a beautiful way to reflect a part of their lives and story together. It was a subtle but striking personal touch that added character to their portraits without taking away from the intimate nature of the day. After the ceremony, Chanel removed the overskirt of her ballgown style dress to reveal a gorgeous vintage lace sheath style dress.
Why Nazareth House Chapel Is Perfect for Micro Weddings
From a photography perspective, Nazareth House Chapel is ideal for micro weddings and elopements in Gauteng (and larger weddings too). The chapel itself is filled with soft, natural light, and lends an intimacy to a wedding ceremony.
