The Floating Pavilion:
An interplay of nature and sleek architecture, the Hazendal Pavilion is a striking setting to exchange vows in. It floats with effortless grace in the centre of a pond offering picture-perfect views of the gardens, the Homestead and the distant Bottelary Hills and Simonsberg.

The Floating Pavilion can host an intimate ceremony accommodating up to 20 guests and, for larger parties, guests can be seated on the surrounding lawn and witness the bridal couple cross the walkway as a symbolic start of their new journey together.

The Kraal:
The Kraal, a heritage site that once housed travellers' oxen, offers to those who like the less ordinary the perfect setting in which to host an al fresco wedding with a touch of rustic. Being outdoors, guests can soak up the picturesque view of the hills and enjoy the feeling of being in the countryside. It is a venue of humble origins with the ability to be transformed into a truly magical experience.

The Kraal can host up to 120 guests or 80 guests with a dance floor.

Avant-Garde and Wine Tasting Lounge:
The luxurious Avant-Garde offers an effortless blend of contemporary style and discreet opulence.

With views of the wine cellar and a vodka distillery, this venue will go a long way to creating a unique and elegant wedding experience.

The Wine Tasting Lounge is located in the estate's original cellar and opens up to the Avant-Garde. While the original cellar dates back to 1870, this space has been completely reimagined and is blending traditional and contemporary design. A statement bar and indoor fireplace with its copper detailing allows for a lavish and opulent setting while a private tasting lounge can be seen floating above the bar.

The Grand Hall:
The Grand Hall is a versatile blank canvas that gives couples carte blanche to transform the space into a vision of their making.

The hall can take up to 250 guests.
