Between packing up her life for Canada, Charlene had found the love of her life, and they spent the next 15 weeks on many adventures together, doing more than most people do in 5 years together, and they knew that this was going to be the adventure of a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Although they spent 4 months apart, when they met up in New York, and the clock struck midnight, Donavon dropped down on one knee, and the rest was history. According to de Beer, \u201cthere was never any question in our minds, Granny Mouse Country House &amp; Spa was the only place we wanted as our wedding venue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWedding planning from halfway around the world is not an easy task, but the thing that struck us both the most about the Granny Mouse team, is that they truly understand how significant a wedding is, and arranged everything like it was their own wedding.

We would recommend Granny Mouse again and again, if you\u2019re looking for a magical venue with an amazing team.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Donavan Roux &amp; Charlene De Beer visited Granny Mouse many years ago, not only did their love blossom, but they fell in love with the venue, knowing then and there, that Granny Mouse Country House &amp; Spa was the only place on their list of wedding venues.
