Everything you need to know about weddings in

Opting for a hotel wedding in Tshwane offers a unique blend of sophistication, convenience, and comprehensive service. The city, encompassing Pretoria, provides a diverse range of hotel styles.

  • All-in-One Convenience: Hotels often provide ceremony spaces, reception halls, catering, and accommodation under one roof, simplifying logistics.
  • Professional Staff: Benefit from experienced in-house wedding coordinators, chefs, and service staff dedicated to making your day flawless.
  • Guest Accommodation: On-site rooms for you and your guests remove any travel-related stress after the celebration ends.

When exploring hotel venues, consider the overall experience they offer.

  • Package Inclusions: Look for packages that cover essentials like tables, chairs, linen, and staffing. This can offer significant value.
  • Location & Scenery: Many hotels are near iconic landmarks like the Union Buildings or have their own picturesque gardens, perfect for photos.
  • Customisation: Ask about their flexibility in adapting menus, decor, and timelines to match your personal vision for the day.

The cost of a hotel wedding in Tshwane can vary significantly based on the venue's prestige, location, and the package selected.

  • Average Cost Per Head: Expect all-inclusive packages to range from approximately R800 to R1,600+ per guest. This typically includes the meal, welcome drinks, and basic venue setup.
  • Venue Hire Fees: Some hotels charge a separate venue hire fee, while others waive it if a minimum number of guests or a specific catering spend is met.
  • Peak vs. Off-Peak: Saturday weddings between September and April are considered peak season and are priced higher. Consider a weekday or winter wedding for potential savings.

Understanding what is included is key to managing your budget effectively.

  • What's Usually Included: Catering, standard furniture, cutlery, glassware, and staffing are common inclusions. Some packages also offer a complimentary suite for the wedding night.
  • Potential Extra Costs: Be mindful of charges for décor upgrades, specialised AV equipment, corkage fees (if bringing your own wine), and staff overtime if your event runs late.
  • Service Charges: Always check if a mandatory gratuity or service charge (often 10-15%) is added to the final bill.

Tshwane's subtropical highland climate offers distinct seasons, each with its own appeal for a wedding day.

  • Spring (Sep - Nov): This is arguably the most beautiful time. The city is famous for its jacaranda trees, which burst into a sea of purple blossoms in October, creating a magical backdrop. The weather is warm and pleasant.
  • Summer (Dec - Feb): The landscape is lush and green. Days are hot, often with spectacular afternoon thunderstorms. A hotel's indoor, air-conditioned spaces provide a perfect, reliable setting.

Choosing a season depends on your preference for weather and atmosphere.

  • Autumn (Mar - May): Characterised by mild, stable weather with less rain and comfortable temperatures, making it a very popular and reliable season for weddings.
  • Winter (Jun - Aug): Expect dry, sunny days with crisp, cool evenings. This season is ideal for cosy indoor receptions, perhaps in a hotel with a fireplace, and you may find better availability and off-season rates.

Tshwane is well-connected, making it accessible for both local and international guests.

  • Airports: The city is serviced by O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB), about a 45-minute drive away, and the smaller Lanseria Airport (HLA).
  • Ground Transport: The Gautrain offers a fast and safe rail link from O.R. Tambo to stations in Pretoria and Hatfield. The city is also connected by major national highways like the N1 and N4.
  • Getting Around: Ride-sharing services and car rentals are widely available for guests to navigate the city.

One of the primary advantages of a hotel venue is the built-in accommodation solution.

  • On-Site Rooms: Your guests can book rooms directly at the venue, often at a preferential rate if you arrange a room block. This adds a layer of safety and convenience.
  • Variety of Options: For guests not staying at the venue, Tshwane has a wide range of hotels, guesthouses, and apartments in suburbs like Menlyn, Brooklyn, and Waterkloof to suit different budgets.
