There’s something about a wedding in the countryside that just feels right. Maybe it’s the fresh air, the open space, or the way time slows down just enough for you to take in every moment. If that’s the kind of wedding you’re dreaming of, Green Leaves Country Lodge & Venue might just be the place where it all comes together.

A Countryside Escape, Yet Close Enough
Tucked away in the Magaliesberg Mountains, Green Leaves is an easy 1 hour and 56-minute drive from Potchefstroom via the R500. Not too far for your guests to make the trip, but just far enough to feel like you’ve escaped the rush of everyday life.
The venue is set on the banks of the Magalies River, surrounded by lush gardens and a stunning mountain backdrop. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to take a deep breath and just soak in the beauty. And when it comes to weddings, that kind of setting makes all the difference.
A Venue with Character and History
Green Leaves isn’t just another wedding venue. This family-owned estate, managed by the Venter family since 1998, has a deep history combined with modern elegance. The manor house, with its countryside-style architecture, is surrounded by meticulously landscaped gardens that are green and blooming all year round. Whether you’re after a rustic, classic, or even slightly dramatic setting, this venue delivers.
The best part? The venue blends its old-world charm with contemporary design, so you get the best of both worlds. It’s a place that feels warm and welcoming while still being stylish and sophisticated.
Wedding Venues That Make an Impression
Green Leaves offers a variety of spaces to host your wedding, each with its own charm and unique appeal.
Tuscan Banquet Hall: Italian Elegance in the Countryside
If you’ve ever dreamed of a romantic Italian-inspired wedding, the Tuscan Banquet Hall might be your perfect match. The architecture and intricate detailing create an intimate and inviting atmosphere, while the veranda offers a breathtaking view of the Magalies Mountains.
Perfect for smaller, more intimate weddings, this venue can accommodate up to 120 guests. Whether it’s a candlelit reception or a sunlit afternoon celebration, this hall brings a touch of European elegance to your special day.
Stables Banquet Hall: Rustic French Charm
For something a little more whimsical and romantic, the Stables Banquet Hall is a converted horse stable turned into a wedding venue straight out of a fairytale. Sculptured gardens, tranquil water features, and a horse & carriage to complete the scene – it’s an elegant French Country setting with a distinctly romantic feel.
With a capacity of up to 180 guests, this space allows for both indoor and outdoor elements. You can even opt for a garden wedding on the beautiful lawns, with the mountains as your backdrop. It’s the kind of venue that makes every photo look like it belongs in a bridal magazine.
A Tailored Wedding Experience
At Green Leaves, weddings aren’t just another event – they’re crafted to be memorable, stress-free, and uniquely personal. Whether you want a fully hands-on planning experience or prefer to let the team take the reins, they’ll work with you to ensure every detail is perfect.
The team is well-versed in the latest bridal trends, from décor and florals to gourmet menus. So, whether you’re planning something modern or keeping it classic, you’ll have the right guidance to make your wedding truly your own.
Food That Guests Will Actually Remember
We all know the rule: people might forget the speeches, but they’ll remember the food. At Green Leaves, you won’t have to worry about guests sneaking off for a late-night burger run. The venue offers a customised menu, whether you want a plated dinner, a buffet feast, or something entirely unique to your style.
Using only high-quality ingredients and professional chefs, the food is designed to impress. From decadent desserts to perfectly cooked mains, every meal is as visually stunning as it is delicious.
More Than Just a Wedding Venue
While Green Leaves is first and foremost a wedding venue, it also caters for corporate functions, conferences, and private celebrations. So, if you fall in love with the place (which is highly likely), you can always find another excuse to return – perhaps an anniversary celebration or a milestone birthday.
