The admin and front of house teams made it easy for us to plan our wedding weekend so that we could focus on other important details. We could stay at the venue all weekend knowing our guests were taken care of. We had the freedom to choose our favourite pre-drinks and ceremony areas, each with their own unique character.

We were venue less 1 week prior to our wedding day and through wonderful friends we had the privilege of meeting Marieta and Peter. From the moment we set foot at Eikenhof they were readily available to help, assist and do anything they could to make our day what we had envisioned it to be and BETTER! The attention to detail, communication between ourselves and our suppliers was just so refreshing, if stressed out were people, we were certainly those people. And through the storm we felt we were in they made us see the rainbow and executed on a breath-taking day nothing less than perfect. From the staffing, bar service, catering, availability of personnel, you guys were on the ball and just there at our service to assist with whatever was required.

The villa we stayed at the night before the wedding aswell as the night of the wedding was exquisite. Everything fitted our theme of our day perfectly and we were in awe of the beauty of the venue. Eikenhof certainly is a venue I would highly recommend, nestled away in the middle of the winelands, it really is a perfect venue for both intimate wedding or larger wedding settings. We felt so connected to our guests during the church service under the pergola and even during our photo session, everything felt homely and warm and perfect. Eikenhof team thank you for making our dreams come true, for going the extra mile, for easing our anxiety and executing our magical day with ease. Your professionalism and eagerness to engage your couples with so much excitement and genuine passion is a true reflection of the warm feeling you receive when visiting Eikenhof. – Cuan & Natalie

Brookdale Estate is as unexpected as she is enchanting. Hugged by the tranquil valley and surrounded by natural beauty, Brookdale Estate offers some of the region’s most innovative wine creations. This sprawling country estate, crowned by a Manor House which overlooks manicured indigenous gardens, wild fynbos, dipping valleys and towering hills, serves as a unique, working wine farm where imagination meets skill.

A true Cinderalla story, the estate was once overgrown and underused. The Rudd family saw its enormous potential and acquired the property with a clear vision in mind – to create a world-class country estate that produces fine and interesting wine blends using unusual varieties in a South African context. Before vines could be planted, alien vegetation had to be cleared, and the balance of nature restored. The Rudd family successfully cleared the 80 hectares of land, salvaging a block of Chenin Blanc that would become its maiden release and planted the remaining 53 hectares with indigenous vegetation and gardens for guests of the Manor House to explore. The property is also home to a Cellar, Tasting Room and Bistro.

Choosing a Cape Winelands Wedding Venue

The Cape is the home 100’s of charming wine estates that boast wedding venues with spectacular views, world-class service and award-winning wines. These stunning estates are one of the main attractions of the Western Cape and the reason why so many couples come to Cape Town to tie the knot. You can’t find this kind of beauty and concentration of idyllic settings anywhere else in the world! Combine that with the warm hospitality and the many passionate service providers who love helping create 100’s of weddings every year… you just can’t go wrong.

Choosing a venue is the first step in your wedding planning journey and can be an unnerving choice to make. Tip: Book your venue 12 to 9 months before your wedding date to ensure availability. 

Once you have chosen a breathtaking venue it will be much easier to turn it into your envisioned perfect day. But there will be restrictions that will nudge your decision towards the right place.

What is the capacity of the venue?
Are they available on your preferred date?
How far would your guests need to travel?
Is there accommodation nearby and on the estate?
What is the Plan B in case of cold/rainy weather?

Most venues offer different wedding packages so keep an eye out for them to see what is included. Make sure you understand the fine print and the after-hour charges. Open and clear communication between you and the venue management team is crucial to ensure both parties understand requirements and preferences.

We wish you all the best with your venue search and we hope you find your dream venue in our list!
