The all white venue and decor with a pop of greenery was absolutely breathtaking.

However, It wasn't the decor and guest list, with EFF leader, Julius Malema and Mbuyiseni Dlozi, that made this wedding special and unique, but rather Mmatema's wedding dress. Instead of the traditional white dress, the singer wore a blood red dress with a long red veil – and we love it!

This wedding took place just two weeks after her traditional wedding ceremony.  

Mmatema shared some of the special moments on Instagram, "I’ve always thought I knew what being loved was until I met Mr G. I am looking forward to living you forever and exploring even greater and the most beautiful moments with you my husband," she wrote.

Have a look:

The wedding dress sparked a conversation on social media - with people wondering if white weddings are something of the past.
