La Residence is an exclusive private estate in the Franschhoek Valley. Set on 30 acres of vineyards and plum orchards, it offers sweeping mountain views and complete tranquillity. The estate combines luxury accommodation, expert service, fine dining and dramatic scenery.
La Residence is one of the most impressive wedding venues in South Africa. Few places offer the same level of beauty and character. It’s a destination that feels private, spacious and designed for unforgettable celebrations.
The location is ideal for a South African wedding. The estate sits in the heart of the Franschhoek Valley, surrounded by vineyards, orchards and panoramic mountain views. Because of this, La Residence creates a secluded and luxurious setting for your wedding events.
The property can host up to 150 wedding guests. In addition, accommodation is available for up to 52 guests across the main hotel, Franschhoek House and the Vineyard Suites. This makes it easy to keep your closest guests on-site for the full celebration.
La Residence is a boutique hotel, so the estate is used creatively for weddings. There isn’t a single, dedicated function venue. Instead, you can use signature spaces such as the Grand Hall and the Palmtree Courtyard. Once you book the estate exclusively, these areas become yours to customise without any additional venue fee.
Exclusive use is required for weddings at La Residence. You’ll need to reserve the entire property for a minimum of three nights, including the Main Hotel, Vineyard Suites and Franschhoek House. Prices for exclusive use start at £26,000 for three nights.
A dedicated events co-ordinator supports every wedding at La Residence. They help you plan the experience from start to finish and ensure every detail runs smoothly on the day.
