The dress code was strict yet playful in its instruction. All white with red bottoms only because Idols SA judge and choreographer Somizi Mhlongo and his fiance Mohale Motaung had a vision of their wedding guests clad in Christian Louboutin heels against a sea of all-white. 

Their wedding pictures would be a testament of their pure love for each other and the red would be a visual representation of their shared passionate love.

No cellphones, please: Showmax has exclusive rights

Guests have been told that no cellphones will be allowed during the wedding as Showmax has exclusive rights to broadcast the ceremony on 24 February in a four-part special that will incorporate the traditional wedding which was held in 2019.

This is all part of brand Somizi which is big business as the star boasts an entertainment empire which includes an ambassadorship with a French champagne company and his own reality show. 

Celebs step out on social media

Celebrity guests have begun sharing their stunning outfits on social media in the lead-up to the nuptials which will take place at a venue in Muldersdrift, Johannesburg.
