Finding a venue

So it looks like we have narrowed it down to 2 venues. Stellenrust and Delvera. Both are really beautiful, but have their very own style to them. There really isn’t a clear winner between the 2, so both Karina and I would be very happy with either one. Both the venues are situated on wine farms in the Stellebosch area. They both have amazing views and surrounds, so we don’t have to worry about finding somewhere to take photographs. So thats 1 less thing to worry about!

Yesterday (Saturday the 8th December), we visited the 5 potential venues that could host our wedding. I have noticed that if you have more than 120-150, the number of venues that can accommodate you drops by two thirds! And with that in mind, our favourite venue on paper, was already booked! So, the bigger the wedding, the earlier you have to book the venue. (Tip 1, newly engaged couples!)

Today, we are taking Karina’s parents out to see both venues, and to see what they think of them. We both have a feeling which one they would prefer, but you never know with Mr. P and Mae.

I’ll be posting some photo’s of the venues up later, so stay tuned for that.
