Acorn Wedding Farm

About Acorn Wedding Farm

Acorn Wedding Farm, the destination wedding you always dreamed of.

Create your own fairytale in our private forest.

We host out of the ordinary weddings for brides looking for an authentically South African destination wedding. The opportunity to host celebrations on our farm has changed our perception of what a wedding can mean. At Acorn it feels incredibly special because of the peace and beauty that surrounds us.

Although our event spaces can cater comfortably for up to 100 guests, we take special care in setting the scene for smaller celebrations that make a big impression. We offer complete exclusivity of the farm to our wedding guests, and the venue is yours until you are ready to call it a night (or morning).

THREE INTIMATE SETTINGS TO CHOOSE FROM

No matter which option turns out to be the right fit, you can expect a creative, intimate and enchanting farm wedding in nature.

CENTURY OLD POPLAR WOODS
There's something magical about the sound of the leaves when they rustle in the breeze, and the beauty of the rays of light that shine through the trees. The sounds of nature and silence echo the heartbeat of Acorn.

THE ‘KLIPKAPEL’
This historic sandstone barn makes time stand still and tells stories of old. This indoor option is the perfect size for a ceremony or canapes. Being right next to the reception area (the Klipskuur), it can also double as the perfect kids zone where we can arrange a nanny and games or movies.

THE STONEBARN
A wedding without cake is just a meeting. The fairy light bluestone "Klipskuur" is where everyone near and dear will raise a toast to your happiness and love. It is our largest indoor option with sufficient space for dining and dancing for up to 120 guests. It includes a bar area, serving area, a large outdoor stoep for socialising and a spacious yard, brought to life with a bonfire or a dance floor underneath the stars.

BEFORE & AFTER YOUR WEDDING CELEBRATION

Often a lot of the excitement and energy of planning a wedding is concentrated on the ceremony and the party that follows it. But we all know it's the moments around the big day, where guests and family bond and brides get a chance to take it all in, that is remembered.
