The Venue

Emanzini Resort offers so much versatility for your wedding, that you can truly have the wedding of your dreams – only limited by your imagination!

Beach Wedding
On a secluded part of the dam, is a small beach on the waters edge, with a perfectly mowed section of grassed land behind it for guests to sit. Here we have had many tented weddings, with guests setting up their marquee right on the lawn at the waters edge. You couldn’t get more intimate and romantic than this! Think string lights, fairly lights and flowers on a balmy summers evening against the backdrop of the dam and mountain.

Tented Wedding
Marquees and stretch tented weddings are very popular at Emanzini on the waterfront.The area is large enough for a marquee of 500 guests.We have two different areas to set up: At the beach or at the pool. The pool is a half-size Olympic pool where you can have floating candles and objects to create ambience. The pool also has a thatched lapa set up for bands and live music. There is also an outdoor bar at the pool which works well as your cash bar. You can set up your marquee right in the middle, seating up to 500 people. All of this can be made as beautiful and romantic as you want it to be. Our wedding team can advise, design and plan out all of your ideas for the big day.

Hall
Our hall is situated on the waters edge, and can seat up to 200 guests.The hall is perfect for full drapes. The hall looks out onto the water and the Ceremonial Dome. The hall looks out onto lovely views of the mountain and dam. Our brides often choose to have the beach ceremony and guests walk up to the hall (20m) for the reception.

Wedding Photos

The resort has so many places and locations for your photo shoot. Sandstone rocks and wild flowers, rolling fields, the waters edge, under the pine trees, or under the willows. The sunsets in this part of the country are breathtaking.
