Its tranquil and secluded nature gives your guests the opportunity to enjoy a weekend of rest and relaxation as part of the matrimonial merriment.
At Drakensbergkloof Guest Farm and Wedding Venue we love the idea of an old-school farm wedding where friends and family get together for a whole weekend of festivity, reconnecting and quality time. The farm provides the ideal setting for a perfect love story that starts with life’s greatest blessing – being surrounded by those closest to your heart.
The wedding venue is ideally suited for weekend weddings. Begin Friday night with the two families coming together for an intimate celebration at the stables around the crackling fire. On Saturday, while the bride and groom are getting ready for their big day, there is lots to do on the farm. Early-risers can enjoy the unforgettable sunrise followed by a leisurely breakfast. Guests can explore the farm on bicycles or use the many footpaths to enjoy their beautiful surroundings.
Holkrans Chapel
This unique little chapel is located within the cliffs of Drakensbergkloof and was naturally formed through years of water running through the mountains to the farm. A small waterfall is always present, but during summer months the water flow can be quite strong producing a thunderous, awe-inspiring sound – absolutely beautiful. The chapel is located close to the reception hall. Wooden logs with cushions act as chairs for your guests, ensuring a unique and natural look for the chapel.
A three-tier rock-formation provides more seating for guests, as well as a grassy area with even more seating. The chapel can accommodate up to 250 guests.
Guests enter the chapel through wooden doors on a stone path leading up to the cliff and after the ceremony return via the stone path to await the newly married couple.
