Why choose Southern Africa as your wedding destination.

                                                                                         

Why would anyone choose to get married in South Africa? First of all you can almost guarantee sunny warm weather as we have 300 sunny days in the year. South Africa remains one of the most popular wedding destinations in the world. The tumbling exchange rate means that your pounds, dollars and euros can buy you a wedding that makes the luxurious affordable and a honeymoon that will be above and beyond your dreams! South Africa is geared up to tourists and tourism in general so it is a very "user-friendly" place to visit. The banking system is sophisticated. Telecommunications are advanced and are under improvement all the time, particularly in the light of the 2010 Soccer World Cup that is taking place here. The planning of your wedding would pose no problem as there are any number of wedding planners working independently or on behalf of some beautiful venues who would be able to assist you with making your big day a reality.

The next decision to make is where to have your wedding? You may wish to take your wedding party of friends and family on a holiday with you, getting married and then having an African Holiday while you are in this part of the world. There are so many gorgeous venues that could accommodate your party exclusively, where you could have the wedding ceremony and honeymoon, either in the African bush or on a gorgeous tropical beach, or you could combine the two experiences. You will be spoilt for choice.

There is another option that is gaining in popularity and that could also be incorporated in your plans and that is a golf safari holiday. There are some spectacular golf estates and courses throughout South Africa and these are close enough to other attractions so that if there are those in your party who would rather game view, go to the beach or shop, then that is what they could do!

Don't forget the options for the extreme sports lovers who want to tie the knot! There are mountaineering and hiking destinations. Or there is white water rafting, kayaking and spectacular desert dune surfing. For the surfers and board riders our coastline has endless beaches, from Cape Town to Jeffrey's Bay, Durban and further north. If diving and snorkeling are your thing, there is the destination for you. How does snorkeling on a coral reef on a subtropical beach in Mozambique sound, or diving off the Natal Coast in Sodwana Bay? The possibilities are endless!
