You are a Bride-to-be. Imagine being able to have an interactive experience with the crème de la crème of service providers. Imagine getting first hand advice from the top coordinators, specialists in decor, stationery, catering, music, lighting, and more. Imagine being able to have all your consultations on one day at one central location!

The Banhoek Experience to be held on the 25th of September 2010 at the MolenVliet and Zorgvliet Wine Estates, promises to be a boiling pot of creativity, with a bubbly vibe and a French street atmosphere. By keeping it exclusive and by inviting only the most elite of service providers, the ticket holder will be able to meet and consult with the industry leaders for every facet of their wedding. This, all while sampling the finest wines, freshly made sushi, canapés from the interactive food stations, and being soothed by a host of the most sought-after wedding musicians in the Western Cape.

Garden Route Wedding Expo Website

The Garden Route is without a doubt one of South Africa’s most sought-after wedding and honeymoon destinations. This beautiful area stretches from Mossel Bay in the Western Cape to Stormsriver neighbouring the Eastern Cape. It includes towns such as Mossel Bay, Knysna, Oudtshoorn, Plettenberg Bay, Nature’s Valley, Still Bay, Riversdale and George.

It forms part of the Eden Discrict which also includes the Klein Karoo region with a vibrant culture. The Garden Route’s wide expanse of forests, blend of mountains, rivers and rich farmlands in close proximity to the sweeping coastline of the Indian Ocean make it an ideal wedding, holiday and honeymoon destination.

The Outeniqua and Tsitsikamma indigenous forests are a unique mixture of Cape Fynbos and moderate forest and offer many hiking trails and eco-tourism activities. Nearly 300 species of bird life are to be found in a variety of habitats ranging from Fynbos to forest to wetlands.

George, the ‘capital’ of the Southern Cape, is a city with the heartbeat of a big town and the charm of the countryside. The regional Garden Route Mall is the venue of this important event, showcasing the best the region and surrounding areas, has to offer.

 300 of the crème de la crème of South Africa’s wedding suppliers. You can browse, gather inspiration and book all the suppliers you need for your wedding. Flowers, photography, cakes, venue, honeymoons, jewelers, transport, dresses, shoes and much much more – everything any bride and groom could dream of!
