Karike & Werner

Martijn Roos -8617

Back in March 2017 we had the honor to be a part of this beautiful couple’s wedding day.

Karike & Werner had a truly extraordinary weekend with us, celebrating their family and friends and showing the type of love you can see when being around them. The Roos brothers did not disappoint in capturing this with their combined photography ad videography! Just take a look at the amazing video below showcasing the wonderful weekend in the Nuy Valley.

The weekend started off with a get together of the family and friends the evening before. They had a pizza tuk-tuk catering for them the evening and we provided drinks. They had some fun and games with family including Giant Jenga and our Italian bowl set.

Saturday the guys kicked off the day with a Nuy Valley Tractor Trailer drive to Willowcreek for olive oil tasting and Conradie Family Vineyards for wine tasting and finished at Leipzig with wine tasting. All while the girls started their day out with make-up, bubbly, fun and laughter with her bridesmaids.

A beautiful ceremony took place in our garden underneath the century old oak tree and this is also where both of them said their own vows to each other. Werner promised all his love to Karike and promised she would never walk alone again. He also promised to walk hand in hand with their path leading forward.

She promised where he’ll go, she’ll go and stay where he is. His God is hers and she chooses him above all with all of his strengths and weakness. She chooses him and him alone and is looking forward for the road ahead.

The group went to take photos at the amphitheater and we quickly turned the ceremony area into their pre-drinks area.  Hosted outside in the garden with games for young and old. Guests were spoiled with Saggy Stone beer, cocktails, while waiters roamed around with gourmet canapes.

Their colour scheme green, white & touches of gold. The reception so beautiful with candles surrounding the entire hall. Slow braised Red Wine Lamb Shanks was a sensation for main, while others enjoyed a Creamed White Leipzig Chicken dish as an option. Guests danced the night away with decadent canape-style desserts to snack on.

The crowd were definite dancers and the floor was full the entire evening. They opened the  dancefloor with bubbles surrounding the two of them, upon their second song all guest popped crackers filled with golden confetti and danced the night away.

The Month Of Love

Bride & Groom Cake

Did you know that February is National Wedding Month?

Not only are we three weeks into the month of love, but also the National Wedding Month. And what a beautiful month to get married in South Africa. Valentine’s day has become such a popular day to get married on, that people are booking these dates well in advance. The month of love also brings us an extra day every four years, which has also become a very popular date for weddings. With so much love, why not get married in February.

Have a look at one of our beautiful weddings, showcasing so much love. The most amazing pink hydrangeas and natural table settings. The couple had a lot of natural items brought into their wedding with flower arrangements on our rustic arch and wooden planks at their table settings. Leipzig Country House offers so many outside areas with beautiful sceneries for the most amazing photos. See for yourself…

VOWS WITH A VIEW

Experience an unforgettable journey to the ideal place for a South African, destination wedding.

It’s all at Leipzig. An old wine cellar, chapel, tranquil garden, towering Oaks, amphitheater and the option of a Bedouin Tent. Long days, magical moments and simple luxuries, one thing’s for sure – Leipzig Country House is for lovers.

Have a unique wedding reception in our historic wine cellar that can seat up to 130 people with a separate dance floor. An outdoor ceremony in our tranquil garden with towering Oaks and the old Manor House will transform your special day into a fairy tale. Or have a romantic ceremony overlooking the vineyards in our century-old brandy cellar, which is now used for a Chapel. The endless vistas, surrounding vineyards, rolling lawns of the amphitheater and rural charm of the historic buildings provide a stunning canvas to capture lasting memories. The best part is, these scenic settings is perfect for your wedding shoot.

All our meals are prepared with fresh produce from the fertile valley & surrounds. Sip on our boutique wines, create new memories and enjoy artisan delicacies.

With 21 luxury rooms on the Estate, guests from far will not have to worry about the drive back. Our rooms are surrounded by vineyards, mountains and pristine gardens, which is a scenic relief from the city life. Turn your wedding into a weekend get-away for your guests by opting for a Braai on the night before your wedding. Combined with a Sun-downer Tractor-Wagon drive through the Vineyards, your guests will have the ultimate experience. Personal wine Tastings can be arranged for guests staying over or they can explore the valley the morning before the wedding. Your guests will be entertained throughout the weekend. From strangers to family…strong bonds are created here at Leipzig. Alternative accommodation for an overflow of guests is just around the corner.

The big sendoff can be done in style by having a delicious Champagne Breakfast in our garden underneath the Bedouin tent the morning after your wedding.

Our beautiful Honeymoon Suite is picture-perfect for getting ready with your bride’s maids. Platters can be arranged to be brought to your room with some bubbly for the festiveness. Your make-up artist and hairstylist will be brought to your room and that’s where the fun begins.

Should this sound perfect for you, make an appointment to view our beautiful venue. We are available weekdays from 08:00-16:00 and on Saturday from 08:00-12:00.

Landi & Willem

On Saturday, 19 March two beautiful souls vowed to spend the rest of their lives with one another.

Starting off the weekend with an intimate braai with close family and friends the Friday night, a promising weekend lied ahead. A big surprise awaited the groom’s mother on Saturday morning, where she was treated wit  h a Champagne Breakfast for her Birthday.

The anticipated big ‘I-do’ was slowly but surely approaching. A big smile greeted me as I went to fetch the bride to meet her father before walking down the aisle.  It was a magical moment as they exchanged their rings…and the kiss, was out of this world.

Guests enjoyed craft beers and homemade lemonade during pre-drinks. Fingerprint canvas art was used to complete the innovated guest book.

The bride decided on two long tables decorated beautifully by Lizl from Flamboijant Décor. Instead of a wedding cake, guests were treated with donuts, which served as the wedding favour too. After our famous Crème Brule dessert, guests danced the night away.

It is a privilege to work with such great service providers in the wedding industry. Thank you, Ronel Kruger, for sharing your amazing talent with us.
