Traditions & Dot
Traditions & Dot — Customary ceremonies run with the families
About Traditions & Dot
Traditions & Dot is based in Johannesburg and has 4 years of experience with weddings, engagements and baptisms. A specialist who knows the customs of both families prepares the dot, knocking or wine-carrying ceremony, gathers the ceremony items and speaks for the families when tradition asks for it.
Every booking starts with a call about your date, your guests and your budget, and a written, itemised quote follows within 24 hours. Prices start from 8,700 ZAR.
We work in English. Popular dates go months ahead, so it is worth asking early; sending a request is free.

Frequently asked
Which traditions do you know?
The ones listed on this profile, and we work with a partner for others. Mixed ceremonies are common.
Can you help two families agree?
Yes. We meet each family first, then together, so the order of the day suits both.
Do you work outside Johannesburg?
Yes. Within 150 km there is no travel fee; further away we add travel to the quote.
