Rustic elegance in the farmlands

Located on the slopes of the beautiful Suikerbosrand River Valley, nestled between farmlands lies The Stone Cellar wedding venue.

At The Stone Cellar, we specialise in weekend getaway weddings that allow you and your loved ones to fully immerse yourselves in nature, relaxation, and celebration. Our family-owned venue offers a personalised touch, ensuring that every detail is tailored to your desires. From the moment you arrive, you’ll experience our commitment to creating a unique and memorable wedding experience.

We are Leon and Monette, a passionate husband and wife duo who left behind the hustle of corporate life to embrace our dream of creating unforgettable weddings. Since 2012, we have had the joy of hosting countless couples, each with their unique story, and turning their wedding visions into reality. Our journey began with a vision in 2010, and today, 14 years later, we are thrilled to call this beautiful farm our home. Together with our two boys, five dogs, and cattle, we have built more than a venue; we have crafted a warm, inviting space where love and joy flourish.

We understand that planning a wedding can be overwhelming, and it’s our mission to ease those concerns. With our experience, dedication, and heartfelt care, you can trust that every aspect of your celebration will be handled with the utmost attention and expertise. Let us take care of the details so you can focus on what truly matters – cherishing the love you share and celebrating with those closest to you.

We look forward to making your special day as extraordinary as you’ve always imagined.
