If lush landscapes, timeless elegance and plenty of good food and wine are top of your list for your perfect Franschhoek wedding venue, then consider ALLEE BLEUE, one of the historic wine estates in the Western Cape, South Africa.

Whether you're a local Capetonian looking for the perfect venue within easy reach of your home, or are coming from afar and choosing Cape Town for your destination, a wine estate wedding venue could be the answer. Here are some of the major advantages that come with that choice:

 
Beautiful setting
The Cape Winelands is blessed with stunning scenery. Vineyards stretch over undulating hills with a backdrop of dramatic mountains. Some of the oldest wine estates nestle against Table Mountain itself, with majestic trees shading the buildings, historic Cape Dutch architecture, lush greens and vines topped by blue skies and creating a wonderful backdrop for your wedding photos as well as creating a wonderful atmosphere for the whole wedding.

 

Great food and wine
Many of the wine estates have made a name for themselves with their restaurants, offering excellent food as well as the choicest wines from their vineyards. All this makes catering for your wedding a pleasure and very easy to co-ordinate. If you are local to the area, it makes sense to visit each estate that catches your eye, to check out the restaurants and sample the wines before settling on your final choice, especially if the food is a top priority.

 

Easy access
Most of the Cape Winelands estates are within easy reach of Cape Town itself. Allee Bleue wine estate in the Franschhoek area is only 30-40 minutes drive from the city, making for easy logistics when you are catering for a number of guests. Allee Bleue offer boutique accommodation on the estate itself, ideal for the bridal party and guests from further afield.
 

Ideal all year round
While beach weddings are very seasonal and vulnerable to weather changes, wine estates work whatever the weather. Winter weddings can be comfortably accommodated in spacious rooms, often historic dining rooms and halls with roaring log fires, while in summer the ceremony and reception can be held outside on shady verandahs or wide expanses of lawn shaded by mature trees. Most venues are very adaptable with both inside and outside catering arrangements possible and there is always a back-up plan for bad weather.
All in all if you want a beautiful location for your wedding, to wow your guests and create beautiful lifelong memories of your day, a Allee Bleue wine estate in South Africa could be your ideal wedding venue.

  1. If you are working with an officiant outside of a house of worship, it sometimes grants more flexibility in the content of the wedding and venue.
