Wedding Day Details

  • GUEST ARRIVAL | 3PM

    Welcome Drinks and a Chef’s Choice Canapé
    will be served on arrival

  • CEREMONY STARTS | 3:30PM

    Guests to be seated for the start of the ceremony. Kindly note that we will be starting on time - this bride won’t be late!

  • VENUE CLOSES | MIDNIGHT

    Guests will need to return to their accommodation units once the venue closes at 24h00.

  • For ladies, a chic cocktail dress, an elegant jumpsuit, or a stylish midi dress paired with heels is perfect! Accessories like statement jewellery or a clutch are a perfect add-on!

  • For the guys, no need for a full suit - just a button-up shirt paired with suit pants and formal shoes (no jeans). If you’d prefer a more relaxed touch, clean sneakers are totally fine too!

  • Colour-wise, feel free to wear whatever makes you like, except for white (that’s reserved for Bianca!).

    If you’re looking for inspiration, think of the beautiful Free State in autumn - rich golds, warm rusts, deep burgundies, and earthy greens.

Dress Code

Cocktail Style Attire is all about looking stylish and polished without being overly formal.
