I know a lot of the fun I had to do with the people I was with, but there's no doubt that the beautiful grounds, exquisite backdrop scenery, wonderful staff, and SENSATIONAL food at Nooitgedacht Estate all contributed to an unforgettable experience. Seriously though, that head chef deserves multiples raises! *chef's kiss*

I love photographing weddings at Nooitgedacht. The leafy grounds offer endless versatility - from the romantic gardens and historic Cape Dutch architecture, to the serene lake at sunset and the iconic tree-lined lane. It’s truly a dream setting, and I’d highly recommend it to any couple choosing to celebrate here!

Great function venue, lovely gardens. Efficient and friendly staff. The canopes were tasty, service was great with continuous flow of servings. Same with coffee and wine bar, lots of options for coffee, tea or hot chocolate was available. Much enjoyed the ambience of the place, the wedding ceremony in the quaint chapel, the outdoor seating and inside the reception venue. Absolutely beautiful decor, a magical transformation!

Had the most incredible wedding at Nooitgedacht last weekend! The guests raves about the food and the organization of the venue. The new accommodation is phenomenal. The staff were so friendly and made the day magical! Throughout wedding planning, Lisa helped me though the process and answered any questions I had. Would recommend this venue to anyone!
