What an amazing evening we had at The Venue for our End-of-Season Function for BerryWorld SA! From the planning and arrangements to the beautiful décor and menu options, Nicole and her team were professional, attentive, and a pleasure to work with every step of the way. I will definitely recommend The Venue for any occasion. The location is perfect, and you will be spoiled with stunning views.
To Nica, you were super awesome on the night, and the friendly waiters and barman added the perfect finishing touch to an already exceptional experience. Thank you, Nicole, Nica, Monja, and the rest of the team—well done on the excellent service.

The decision to have our wedding at the venue was truly the best choice we could have made. From the food to the decor, the drinks and the wedding coordination.
The team members fully ensure that your day runs as smoothly as possible.
There is constant communication leading up to the big day and no detail is left unaddressed.
The Venue itself is beautiful- we couldn’t have asked for better.

We recently celebrated Jannie’s 50th birthday at The Venue, Blacksmith Estate, and it was absolutely exceptional! From start to finish, the team was professional, organized, and a pleasure to work with. Every detail — from the planning to the final touches — was handled with such care and attention.
On the evening itself, the service was flawless. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We especially appreciated their eye for the little things that made the evening feel extra special.
And the food — wow! The braai snacks were simply fabulous and a real highlight of the night. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was.
Thank you to the entire Blacksmith Estate team (Nicole, Nica, Stefan, Wikus especially) for helping us create such a memorable celebration! Highly recommended for any special occasion. 🎉

The best choice we made was having our wedding at The Venue. This was the first venue we viewed, and we were immediately in love! The owners are absolute gems and did everything to make the planning experience go smoothly and with half the stress I imagined. From viewing, to planning, to the wedding day, everything was an easy experience. I am forever grateful to Nicole and her team for making our dreams come true and exceeding every expectation. This was everything and more I could have ever wanted. Thank you for your sincere advice and selfless attention to every detail! You are amazing! The best of all? You get two views at The Venue: daytime with the vineyards and beautiful views of mountains, and nighttime with the city lights. Our guests were in awe!
Thank you would never be enough, we are always grateful!
Leoné & Ruan ❤️
