Tis' the season for weddings and engagements at One&Only Cape Town and with holiday planning in full swing, the award-winning resort is unveiling a luxurious new 76-ft motor yacht and sophisticated new ballroom.
With a new classic ivory colour palette and the striking addition of six exquisite handmade crystal chandeliers to the decor, the new Ballroom is a space suited for the most elegant of weddings. Measuring 2,314 square feet, the Ballroom also boasts 648 square feet of outdoor space with breath-taking views of Table Mountain. Able to accommodate 50 to 140 guests, the lavish venue can be divided in two for more intimate affairs and has already drawn the attention of Cape Town's A-list soon-to-be-weds to celebrate their special day.
"The beauty of getting married at One&Only Cape Town is that absolutely everything is taken care of, from the flowers to the décor, the cake, DJ and every other detail in between," says Adele Bennett, One&Only Cape Town Wedding Coordinator. "Both the couple and the guests are treated to a 5-star event that showcases our spectacular location on the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront and services that are simply unparalleled from an award-winning spa to the gourmet cuisine of Nobu and South African Celebrity Chef Reuben Riffel."
A further addition to One&Only Cape Town's Celebrations offering is the resort's recent association with the Sherilyn, a luxury motor yacht available to couples for sunset wedding photographs, intimate wedding ceremonies and proposals showcasing the stunning vistas of Table Mountain and Table Bay. Able to accommodate up to 20-passengers, the Sherilyn comes equipped with a qualified team able to facilitate elaborate floral décor or a curated menu of gourmet canapés and champagne. Couples partaking in the One&Only Cape Town Ballroom Package are provided exclusive access to the yacht for post-ceremony drinks. The Sherilyn also acts as an ideal venue for bachelorette, bachelor and a post-wedding brunch.
The new Ballroom and yacht join an already expansive list of venues and offerings for couples celebrating a One&Only Moment in Cape Town. From an intimate ceremony overlooking the Waterfront to an alfresco celebration at Isola restaurant, each individual celebration is designed to suit individual tastes and styles.
