A host of South African celebrities have attended the wedding of high jump queen Hestrie Cloete and singer Jurie Els at the luxurious Kievits Kroon Country Lodge outside Pretoria.
Among the guests at the glamorous wedding, were actress Lizz Meiring, designer Thomas Thompson, actor Lieb Bester and singer Jak de Priester.
Former Springbok Naas Botha and his wife Karin, singer Juanita du Plessis and Simon Rademan, who designed Cloete's dress, were also there.
Security was tight and guests had to show their invitations before they were allowed onto the premises.
Cloete wore a white, sleeveless dress and Els wore a suit. Although Cloete's parents attended the wedding, she was walked down the aisle by Rademan.
According to one of the guests, the tables were covered with golden decorations.
Els was to sing songs to his bride from his newest album, which has also been dedicated to her.
Their honeymoon has been postponed as Els has a performance in Pretoria on Saturday.
