Whether it is an extravagant reception or something intimate that you require, Mongena Game Lodge goes out of its way to make every bride's’ dreams come true! We pride ourselves as the ultimate weekend destination for a bush wedding, limiting hosting to only 1 wedding per weekend to ensure exclusivity for the wedding party.
Mongena is an ideally situated bush wedding venue in close proximity to both Johannesburg and Pretoria. The Lodge can sleep 59 wedding guests in shared accommodation with additional accommodation options available within a radius of 6 km. The romantic honeymoon suite overlooking the small dam at main lodge is a must for new and mature honeymooners alike. This suite is complimentary for the night of the wedding on a bed and breakfast basis.
Sunset at the Mongena dam amongst free roaming big 5 animals sets the stage for those awe inspiring wedding photographs where magical moments are created. The fire lighting ceremony has become a trademark at Mongena symbolizing unity, the beginning of a new life as husband and wife as well as signaling the start of the wedding celebration and party.
