If a romantic vineyard wedding amidst the valley is your dream, this stunning architectural marvel is sitting right beneath the foot of the Waaihoek Mountain, this farm-meets-hotel is certainly the rage. Drawing poetic inspiration from Psalm 36:7, the crisp white form is conceived as a lightweight, and dynamic structure which appears to float within the valley. The glass-walled chapel features a unique curved roof, making it appear as if the building rests on a body of water. Couples wanting to host their wedding at this Avante-Garde venue can only accommodate a maximum of 100 guests.
