Say ‘Yes I do’ in the South African bush!

Want to get married in a foreign country and long for adventure? Choose the magnificent and multifaceted Republic of South Africa. Say ‘I do’ amongst the wildlife and in the untouched and breathtaking nature of this extraordinary country!

The ‘Big Five’: elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, leopard and many other animals and hundreds bird species welcomes you into the heart of the South African wilderness! Perhaps some of the Big Five will serve as witnesses when your ‘I do’ sounds in the bush!

A very special and romantic location to tie the knot is the Welgevonden Reserve in the Waterberg Mountains. This malaria free game reserve is situated about 3,5 hours from Johannesburg International Airport. In the centre of this beautiful game reserve are the four chalets of ‘Mhondoro Lodge’. The chalets are luxurious and modern furnished and the staff will serve you with comfort and personal care!

In cooperation with Fundisa Travel they’ll make sure that you experience the most romantic and unforgettable time at their lodge and in the game reserve! Fantastic game drives in open-top Land Rovers will drive you through the South African bush. The professional rangers will tell you all about the untouched nature and off course will show you the wild animals! After the wedding ceremony, you choose you own location in the reserve, delicious snacks and champagne are served to ring the party!

At night you can enjoy a traditional braai (BBQ) under a starlit South African sky, or Mhondoro’s head chef will prepare a delicious (oriental or international) meal for you and wash it down with some of South Africa’s best wines.

Bram and Monique got married at Mhondoro Lodge in December 2003. They experienced an unforgettable day. For Monique it was her wish to get married in the South African wilderness and Fundisa Travel realised her dream! The couple were surrounded by the beautiful nature, enjoying endless views at the moment they said ‘Yes I do’. A South African Marriage Officer conducted the ceremony and two rangers served as witnesses. “We want to thank Fundisa Travel and the owners/staff of Mhondoro Lodge. Thanks to them we did not have to worry about anything that is important for your wedding such as documents, flowers, a photographer or any other source. We only had to think of each other and enjoy the magnificent country that is South Africa!”
