I would like to thank Tanya, Jacques, & all staff for your effortless support, without you we woukd not have had the most magical and fairytale wedding. Wow wow wow. 10/10
Had the rustic hall for a wedding with 50 guests on Sunday, 15 Sept. We were very happy. Everything s well organized, beautifully decorated, and stylish. The food s delicious and enough for the guests. Had a good time and can recommend this venue for sure.
We had an exceptional experience with the co-ordinators, after fully understanding our vision for the wedding they were able to turn it into a dream wedding, great service, amazing people;Tanya, Jacques and Phonso…we greatly appreciated everything❤️
Oh, Thabong Wedding Venue exceeded all my expectations! I s the happiest bride ever! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. The staff were attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The food s AMAZING - our guests are still raving about it! And the venue itself? Stunning. It s the perfect backdrop for our special day.
I'd HIGHLY recommend Thabong Wedding Venue to anyone looking for a dream wedding venue. They truly made our day unforgettable, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you, Thabong team, for your hard work and dedication. Tanya, You're the best! 💕
The venue is huge and can easily accommodate different weddings without clashing with each other. The chapel sits right next to the large parking area to easily receive guests.
The opulently decorated bridal suite, which is right next to the reception hall, has more than enough space for the bridal party with a large, open-plan bathroom and lounge. The suite is a bit dark so your photographer and make-up artist will need to bring some lights.
What I like about the venue is how close most things are to each other.
The reception hall we were at is in a T-shape with an outside receiving area for guests, toilets, the bar, a buffet room and outside area for smokers. I have to admit that the reception hall's decor s pretty. The buffet s tasty and there s some variety. I highly recommend the pumpkin fritters. Staff were helpful and responded positively to queries and requests for help. One of the staff even carried my luggage to the car for me. Now that is service!
