Habitas is the perfect wedding destination if you’re dreaming of an old Africa safari. We were surrounded by diverse natural ecosystems and hundreds of rare species like rhinos, zebras, wildebeest, and more. The venue fits perfectly with our sustainability theme as Habitas is 100% solar-powered and decorated with locally sourced materials.

Habitas is an unforgettable place to tie the knot and fall in love. The breathtaking landscapes and close encounters with nature creates the perfect atmosphere of romance and wonder. The blend of luxury and sustainability makes it a truly unique spot, ensuring your special day is as extraordinary as your love story. It’s a place where memories are made, and love is celebrated in its purest form.

Imagine saying your vows under the vast African sky, with the sounds of wildlife all around you. The wild, untouched beauty of Africa mirrors the pure emotions of love. Every moment at Habitas becomes a part of your love story, from serene sunsets painting the sky with oranges and pinks to moonlit nights where the stars seem within reach.

In these wild spaces, love feels even more profound. The simplicity and grandeur of nature make every glance, touch, and whisper more meaningful. It’s a place where you can truly disconnect from the world and connect with each other, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Venue: Habitas, Namibia

The Details and florals

We drew inspiration from the stunning earthy tones of Africa. Rich browns, soft beiges, and touches of ivory. These colours came together beautifully to create a sophisticated, minimalistic vibe that feels both timeless and fresh. We focused on sustainability by using locally sourced materials, including natural linen and camel thorn pods for décor. The florals were a stunning blend of pure white plants and flowers, arranged to be felt both wild and refined. Our tablescape exuded simplicity and elegance, adorned with hand-crafted ceramics made from wild clay and complemented by natural linens. The rustic charm of the table settings perfectly complemented the main tent area at Habitas, offering breathtaking views of the African savannah.

The Stationary:

The wedding stationery draws inspiration from the untamed beauty of Namibian landscapes, particularly those around Our Habitas Namibia. The aim was to craft design materials that harmonise with their natural surroundings.

A palette of beige and white hues effortlessly merges with the savannah’s, while designs printed on handmade paper with natural fibres add texture to the minimalist, clean aesthetic. The rough, hand-torn edges echo the gentle curves of sand dunes.

Sustainability and eco-friendliness are at the heart of this project, with the use of handmade paper, botanical elements, and small-batch printing techniques.

Bridal Attire:

Our bride looked stunning in a sleek, minimalist gown that perfectly complemented the natural surroundings. The dress was all about clean lines and subtle details, bringing a modern touch to the classic safari-inspired theme. For the groom, we went with a tailored linen suit in a deep beige, adding a dash of sophistication to the overall look.
