Additional costs to take note of
Our minimum guest requirement is 80 (because of the large size of the venue), therefore if the venue is booked for less than 80 guests, a venue hire of R1 000 will be charged over-and above the R5 000 venue hire.
When own catering is done and the food is prepared in our kitchen from scratch, a kitchen surcharge of R3 000 (80-400 guests) or R4 000 (401+ guests) will be charged for use of the kitchen equipment which includes: 1 x gas stove with 5 plates, 1 x oven fitting 7 shaving dishes and 1 oven fitting 6 shaving dishes (shaving dishes not included), 3 x freezers, 3m x 2m Walk-in fridge, washing liquid, cloths and buffet tables with standard white table cloths.
All other equipment for preparation of the food must be brought by the catering company!
Please let the caterers familiarize themselves with the kitchen before the wedding, as there won’t be any instructor/instructions on the day!
When own catering is done and the food is brought in already prepared, only needs to be warmed, a surcharge of R1 000 (80-400 guests) or R2 500 (401+ guests) will be charged for what is mentioned above.
When choosing your menu as a plated menu, an extra cost of R25 per person will apply.
A fee of R2 000 per hour or part thereof will be charged if the venue is still occupied after the 9 hours from start of ceremony/guest arrival or after 24:00 - whichever occurs first.
