Lusanda & Zak’s Special Day at The Laughing Forest
A storm that gathered over the Atlantic made its way across Cape Town and through the Eastern Cape, finally reaching Mtwalume at 2 PM on Friday afternoon. It knocked out our power until the early hours of Saturday morning — but today, the sunshine is back, Eskom is alive, and we’re ready for a wedding celebration that’s set to be the highlight of the day here on the beautiful, sunny South Coast of KwaZulu-Natal.
Lusanda and Zak have chosen The Laughing Forest Wedding Venue as the place to create their number one memory, and we are absolutely thrilled to deliver a spectacular event for them.
On Friday, Menzi, our outstanding chef, and his talented team began preparing what always turns out to be a resounding success. Menzi’s food has drawn praise from all cultures, and together with our amazing kitchen team, they are a cornerstone of Debbie’s ability to coordinate flawless weekly events.
This week’s stunning décor has been handled by Sdumo Creations, who have worked tirelessly through the night to bring the couple’s vision to life.
Meanwhile, Siya from VJ Generations and his camera crew have been capturing breathtaking bridal shots among the coastal dune vegetation and along the oceanfront — the perfect backdrop for timeless memories.
The sound system is up and running, with DJ Mfundo Conco ready to set the mood and keep the celebration going.
Debbie and her team are fully focused on delivering a day filled with love, laughter, and lasting memories for our beautiful couple.
From all of us — the owners and staff at The Laughing Forest — we wish Lusanda and Zak a journey of togetherness, overflowing with joy, laughter, and endless love.

NgoLwesihlanu, uMenzi, umpheki wethu ovelele, kanye nethimba lakhe elithembekile, baqale amalungiselelo okupheka ukudla okuthi njalo kube impumelelo enkulu.
