Your Dream Wedding at Hakunamatata Lodge and Spa
If you’re looking for a peaceful, stunning spot to say “I do,” Hakunamatata Lodge and Spa in Muldersdrift is a top choice. Just 30-40 minutes from Johannesburg and Pretoria, this secure 21-acre country estate offers rolling lawns, majestic old trees, fragrant flowers, and tranquil water features where indigenous birds create a magical atmosphere for your special day.
A Naturally Beautiful Wedding Venue
Hakunamatata Lodge and Spa is designed to make your wedding unforgettable. Exchange vows in the charming garden ceremony area, complete with a lovely arch, or move indoors to the elegant banquet hall if the weather doesn’t cooperate. After the ceremony, your guests can relax with welcome drinks on the bar terrace or in the lush gardens, all set up for comfort and easy conversation. For your reception, choose between a fairy-lit deck under the stars or the enchanting gardens—both perfect for a romantic celebration. The venue provides round banquet tables dressed in white linen, along with cutlery and crockery, giving you a classic base to add your personal décor and floral touches.
What’s Included for Your Wedding Celebration
Hakunamatata takes care of the details so you can focus on enjoying your day. Their wedding packages include:
- Accommodation: A bridal suite is yours the night before the wedding, accommodating up to four guests with breakfast included. The bridal party can use the suite during the day to get ready, while the groom and groomsmen have a separate room for their preparations.
- Ceremony and Reception Spaces: Use the beautiful garden ceremony area and the banquet hall as a backup for bad weather, plus chairs for all your guests.
- Post-Ceremony Welcome Drinks: Celebrate with your guests over sparkling wine—choose alcoholic or non-alcoholic options—to toast your new beginning.
Comfort and Relaxation for You and Your Guests
Your guests will love staying in the estate’s charming thatched-roof chalets, known as “kayas,” which blend modern comforts with rustic charm. Many chalets feature verandahs or decks overlooking the gardens or ponds—perfect for quiet moments before or after the festivities. For extra relaxation, the estate offers a fully equipped health spa with a range of pampering treatments, a year-round outdoor swimming pool, and a sunny terrace. The on-site restaurant serves delicious South African cuisine and caters for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, making it easy to keep everyone well-fed and happy throughout your wedding weekend.
