Wine Estate Wedding Venues In South Africa

If lush landscapes, timeless elegance and plenty of good food and wine are top of your list for your perfect wedding venue, then consider some of the historic wine estates of the Western Cape, South Africa. In and around Cape Town there are a variety of beautiful estates to choose from, some producing world-renowned wines, others with smaller production levels, but all of them offering a stunning backdrop for your big day.

Whether you're a local Capetonian looking for the perfect venue within easy reach of your home, or are coming from afar and choosing Cape Town for your destination wedding, a wine estate wedding venue could be the answer. Here are some of the major advantages that come with:

Beautiful setting

The Cape Winelands are blessed with stunning scenery. Vineyards stretch over undulating hills with a backdrop of dramatic mountains. Some of the oldest wine estates nestle against Table Mountain itself, with majestic trees shading the buildings, historic Cape Dutch architecture, lush greens of trees and vines topped by blue skies and creating a wonderful backdrop for your wedding photos as well as creating a wonderful atmosphere for ht e whole wedding.

Great food and wine

Many of the wine estates have made a name for themselves with their restaurants, offering excellent food as well as the choicest wines from their vineyards. All this makes catering for your wedding a pleasure and very easy to co-ordinate. If you are local to the area, it makes sense to visit each estate that you like the look of, to check out the restaurants and sample the wines before settling on your final choice, especially if the food is a top priority.

Easy access

Most of the Cape Winelands estates are within very easy reach of Cape Town itself. Some like Constantia Uitsig are actually within Cape Town on the back slopes of Table Mountain, that are still fully operational vineyards within the city, and the many wine estates in the Stellenbosch area are only 30-40 minutes drive from the city, making for easy logistics when you are catering for a number of guests. Some of them also offer boutique accommodation on the estate itself, ideal for the bridal party and guests from further afield.

Ideal all year round

While beach weddings are very seasonal and vulnerable to weather changes, wine estates work whatever the weather. Winter weddings can be comfortably accommodated in spacious rooms, often historic dining rooms and halls with roaring log fires, while in summer the ceremony and reception can be held outside on shady verandahs or on wide expanses of lawn shaded by mature trees. Most venues are very adaptable with both inside and outside catering arrangements possible and there is always a back-up plan for bad weather.

All in all if you want a beautiful location for your wedding, to wow your guests and create beautiful lifelong memories of you day, a wine estate in South Africa could be your ideal wedding venue.
