Cape Town Elopement - Cape Winelands Wedding Package

Imagine saying I Do to the love of your life, surrounded by vineyards and majestic mountains and some of the most beautiful scenery South Africa has to offer!

The Cape Winelands offer dramatic landscapes and award-winning wines, perfect for an intimate elopement designed just for you. Your ceremony will be personalised and unique, filled with all the love and good vibes your wedding day deserves.

  Start getting dressed and ready for your Cape Town Elopement ceremony later in the afternoon. This will include hair and makeup for the bride(s) as well as quick solo photo shoots for the couple while getting ready and before the ceremony. Allow 1,5 hours for this.

  We’ll start with a first look so that you can see each other looking amazing and ready to get married.

  We will then move to the ceremony area. The marriage officer will perform your Cape Town elopement ceremony. Once done, you will toast each other with a cold glass of local bubbly.

• 7:00 PM

  Once the sun has gone down, we will return to the farm or your accommodation, where you will sit down to a romantic South African style dinner for two.

We can adapt the timing of your Cape Winelands Wedding program– we can make it longer or shorter. You are welcome to extend your stay on either side of your Cape Town Elopement day, at your own cost. You are also welcome to invite guests at your own cost. The exact Cape Winelands Wedding Package price is subject to the rules of the chosen wine farm/accommodation.

Legal Ceremony Information

In South Africa, legal marriage is possible for foreigners. I am a registered Marriage Officer and can help with what is required to make it legal.
You will get a list of the documentation needed. It can take a couple of months to get your unabridged marriage certificate from SA. You will need to use a service to get this certificate, an extra fee to get an Apostille, and courier fees.

Your marriage will then need to be registered in your home country.
