Wine tram attire: think floral dresses, sundresses, jumpsuits and rompers for the ladies. Linen button up shirts, shorts, chinos, etc for the men.You've all gone wine tasting before, so we know you will all look great!
We will be splitting up the group up into 3 groups. The first group will depart at 10:30am (20 spots), the second group will depart at 11:30am (20 spots), and the third group will depart at 12:30pm (12 adults and 1 child). All groups will depart from the Franschhoek Terminal. We recommend getting there at least 15 minutes before departure. We will all be going on the Green Line. We HIGHLY recommend that you go to the following wineries: Grande Provence: a must see! Grande Provence is a beautiful 325-year old wine estate with art installations. Voted one of the top 50 wineries in the world. Atlas Swift: a charming family run winery with beautiful views and an intimate wine tasting showcasing Franschhoek's best Chardonnays (they also have red wine too!) Pigcasso: this winery has a real pig that paints art live Mont Rochelle: luxury winery settled a the foot of the Klein Dassenberg mountain range with beautiful views of the Franschhoek valley

Braai Attire: Casual garden party. Think florals, pastels, neutrals and creams. Very similar to the wine tasting outfits but more adventurous with color and patterns. For the ladies, think dresses, skirt sets, and jumpsuits. There will be grass so block heels or flat sandals. For the men, think linen button up shirts, chinos, fun floral or pastel shirts/polos. Shorts are acceptable. No jeans.
INVITE ONLY - you will know if you're invited: Join us for a traditional South African braai to kick off the wedding festivities! We'll enjoy drinks, grilled meats, veggies, and a chance for some of our family and friends near and far to meet and celebrate together before the big day.
