KirstenVale Weddings About

About ME

Kirst Wills (1)

You might know me from KirstenVale Wedding Venue, where my passion for weddings began.

KirstenVale was more than a venue for my husband and me—it was where we got engaged, married, and started our little family of four. So, when the farm was sold, and we had to close our doors, it broke my heart.

But every ending brings new beginnings. Running KirstenVale taught me how much I love helping brides create their dream day. That’s why KirstenVale Weddings was born, allowing me to focus entirely on planning and coordinating special celebrations.

When Karkloof Safari Spa invited me to manage their wedding venue, I couldn’t resist. This beautiful private game farm offers endless possibilities for couples, and I can’t wait to help you craft the wedding of your dreams at Weddings at Karkloof.

The Venue

Karkloof Safari Spa specialises in creating unforgettable bush weddings, wedding weekends, engagements, and events.

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Karkloof Valley, this 5-star game lodge provides the perfect backdrop for your special celebration.

Luxury Accommodation with Unbeatable Views

The lodge accommodates up to 32 guests in 16 stunning luxury villas. Each villa features panoramic views of the valley, allowing for game viewing from the comfort of your private deck. Guests can also enjoy a large communal pool, perfect for relaxing while you prepare for your big day.

Relaxation Meets Celebration

Need a little pampering before your wedding? Treat yourself and your bridal party to indulgent spa treatments, all within walking distance of the lodge.

Celebrate the Weekend Away

We know how quickly the wedding day flies by, so why not make it a weekend to remember? Kick off your festivities with a Friday night gathering around the new boma, complete with a bush dinner prepared by our in-house chef.

Your guests will have plenty to keep them entertained, from luxurious spa treatments to game drives and hikes to the iconic Karkloof Falls. It’s a weekend getaway like no other—an experience you and your loved ones will treasure forever.
