Whether you’re a jet-set pair looking for an exotic spot to wed or a duo with an intimate ceremony in mind, Cape Town is the perfect setting: vibrant, sophisticated, beautiful and infinitely romantic. Add in the exquisite location of the South African city and the five-star service of its pre-eminent hotel, Cape Grace, and you have all the ingredients required to fashion an unforgettable day.
It’s with this natural recipe for romance in mind, that Cape Grace has launched an expanded wedding and honeymoon program, explains Nigel Pace, the hotel’s general manager. With the help of the hotel’s dedicated planning team, numerous honeymoon perks and an exclusive online wedding registry, it’s easy for couples to plan the perfect on-site ceremonies.
With the emphasis on flexibility, your wedding options at Cape Grace are endless. Imagine tying the knot on an extravagant yacht bobbing in the cosmopolitan V&A Marina and then celebrating “below deck" in the hotel's elegantly casual Bascule Bar (home to the largest collection of single malt whiskeys south of the Equator); or exchange vows during a simple beach wedding in the surf at Camps Bay followed by an extravagant dinner back at the hotel's signature restaurant, onewaterfront (considered South Africa's finest). The possibilities are endless.
In preparation for your big day, the hotel’s highly efficient and innovative staff will consider (and take care of) every detail. From choosing the appropriate minister, to hair and beauty treatments, floral decor and organizing bachelor and bachelorette parties and rehearsal dinners - everything is arranged by the Cape Grace team.
“Menu-tasting services, menus and place cards, parking for guests and a personalized gift for the couple are all complimentary with every Cape Grace wedding,” explains Pace. The hotel will even pack up all your gifts and have them shipped directly to your home.
Also unique to the hotel is their online wedding registry which gives friends and family the opportunity to purchase gifts – flower bouquets, private dinners, spa treatments, bottles of champagne and Cape Town excursions – all on the hotel’s website. The personalized gifts, or vouchers, will be delivered to you during your stay.
And don’t forget your honeymoon. At Cape Grace, unwinding after the big day is just as important as the big day itself. The hotel prides itself on providing happy couples with the ideal honeymoon setting with offerings of special gifts like champagne and strawberries, spa packs with massage oil and bubble bath, candles and personalized picture frames.
