WHY? Because this beautiful, 300-year-old wine estate also makes an exciting modern statement with its contemporary art gallery and elegant fine dining restaurant, and if you're looking for something that's sleekly on-trend and über luxurious, and you have the budget to match, it won't disappoint. Especially suitable for more intimate weddings, there's an inspiring selection of reception venues available while a truly romantic ceremony can be held in the Angels Tears Garden or in the private Jonkershuis. The Restaurant at Grande Provence seats 60 guests inside, while the gallery with its outdoor sculpture garden can accommodate up to 120. It's all about premium packages here, with everything thrown in from a glamorous wedding night sleepover in the Honeymoon Suite at The Owner's Cottage to the use of multiple venues on the estate. Extra of course is the gourmet cuisine, wine (from Grande Provence), decor, flowers and the like. The wedding couple gets to stay the night in the Honeymoon Suite at the stylish Owner's Cottage.
WE THINK.... the art gallery is the ultimate wedding setting for lovers of a blend of contemporary design, classic winelands luxury and gourmet food.
