Niki at the Event Planners is an all-round RockStar! She pulled off the wedding of our dreams last October, from hunting down our picture-perfect venue to aligning the decor and style to match our particular tastes and running our day (or rather weekend) like clockwork. I work within the hospitality industry and had very high expectations and was super detail orientated, from the food and beverages on offer to the interactive stations on display and outsourced vendors. Niki helped sculpt my multiple ideas into a structured timeline we could all work with, at the same time dealing with my unusual work hours and overseas obligations. Niki took this all in her stride, making the experience fun and exciting whilst remaining realistic and giving fantastic suggestions from her wealth of experience. I never thought I would find someone who I could trust to take the reins so that I could sit back and just make memories. In the two years that we spoke and planned, she was always available, passionate about her work and genuine. Never once did we feel that our wedding was “just another wedding”. – Kate & Jason

Although we offer a range of filming services, we have a dedicated wedding production team who specializes in creating magical wedding films, save-the-date-videos, video guestbooks and engagement videos.
Our love for travel and romance has offered us the opportunity to film at some of the most amazing wedding venues across South Africa and we have also been afforded the opportunity to film in Europe.

Breathtaking views, fine wine, delicious food and a magnificent space ready to be filled with your closest family and friends, await all those who choose Kay and Monty as their wedding venue, and for the duration of your time here you will have the sprawling estate and award-winning vineyards all to yourselves.
We have thoughtfully converted our glass orchid greenhouse into a beautiful, modern rustic event and wedding venue which can seat up to 200 guests, or alternatively be restructured to suit a more intimate gathering. The interior is light and bright with stunning views of the Tsitsikamma Mountains, and the deck looks across the rolling polo fields and tranquil dam. It really is the perfect stage for a wedding.
Our wedding day was more than we could have imagined. We were surrounded by our favourite people in the world in one of our favourite places. A highlight for us was our ceremony, we had the most beautiful setting on the lawn right by the dam. The weather was a bit overcast but the sun decided to shine through the clouds onto our congregation at a very specific moment during our ceremony. Our reception area was exactly what we wanted it to be and more, and it allowed for an incredible evening with all our friends and family. – Leanne and Kyle
