Olive Rock

Nick and Simone Stanford welcome you to enjoy their home and venue for your special occasion.

An elegant and modern building in a warm and down to earth space, is located at the foot of the Witzenberg Mountain range with the Breede river running past the front lawns. It’s the most ideal place where you can be your true selves and focus on what the day is all about without having to worry about the formalities as they unfold seamlessly around you.

Nick will create an unforgettable menu and Simone will ensure a stress-free, happy environment and experience for you from day one.

Beautiful intimate ceremonies are held in the magnificently manicured garden or the river bed. Fun catching up with friends and family in the gardens with the breathtaking mountain views while the sun sets. After which you get to choose between an open-air reception on a balmy summers night or the romantic lines of our Bedouin tent for the cooler nights.

Your guests, no matter where in the world they are from, will love exploring the Tulbagh and Ceres areas – with Ceres Ziplines, wine tasting at the local wineries, horse-riding, golf, hikes along rivers - there is so much for them to experience – ideally what you need from a destination wedding venue.

There is a vast number of great accommodation establishments – some in orchards on farms and some on mountain sides with spectacular views and enough for your wedding party to stay close to Olive Rock.

Olive Rock owners, Nick and Simone look forward to hosting your dream wedding.
