A Peaceful Farm Venue Perfect for Your Dream Wedding

Nestled in the beautiful Elgin Valley, Rockhaven Farm offers a peaceful and exclusive setting for your special day. Surrounded by lush apple and pear orchards, stunning mountain views, and native fynbos, this working farm creates a relaxed yet elegant country wedding atmosphere. Just 70 kilometers from Cape Town, it’s a tranquil escape from the city’s busy pace—ideal for couples wanting a serene celebration.

Rockhaven hosts only one wedding per weekend, so their dedicated team focuses entirely on your event. This ensures a personal, stress-free experience tailored just for you.

Flexible Spaces to Bring Your Wedding Vision to Life

Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a larger party of up to 150 guests, Rockhaven has beautiful spaces to suit your needs:

• The Boathouse: Perfect for ceremonies or smaller receptions, this charming venue sits beside a peaceful lake with breathtaking estate and mountain views. It comfortably seats up to 80 guests and offers a romantic indoor setting.
• The Barn: A converted apple shed that serves as the main reception area, seating up to 150 guests with a dance floor. Its rustic charm—cement floors, exposed brick, and wooden beams—can be enhanced with elegant touches like crystal chandeliers and fairy lights to create a magical ambiance.
• Outdoor Options: For couples dreaming of an open-air celebration, the expansive lawns leading down to the dam are ideal for ceremonies. The courtyard next to The Barn can also be transformed into an outdoor dance floor, perfect for dancing under the stars.

Exceptional Food and Thoughtful Venue Inclusions

Rockhaven’s culinary team is known for delicious dishes made from fresh, local ingredients—many sourced from their own organic vegetable garden. They recommend using their in-house catering for a smooth dining experience, typically including canapés, a main course, and dessert.

While the venue doesn’t hold a liquor license, a bar service can be arranged, and you’re welcome to bring your own drinks with no corkage fee. The venue hire package also includes stylish tables, chairs, crockery, cutlery, and glasses for up to 140 guests, making your planning easier.
