An African Safari Wedding





THE OUTPOST - a Safari Wedding Venue in this little corner of heaven in the African Game Reserve




The Outpost lies in a vast wilderness area in the northernmost part of Kruger National Park. This region, called the Makuleke Region, is bordered to the north by the Limpopo River and Zimbabwe and to the east by Crooks Corner and Mozambique.




The Outpost provides an ideal location for your intimate wedding in our African Wilderness. There are a number of beautiful areas within the concession from which you can choose the perfect location. A clearing in the Bush can be set up for your ceremony. Or under a Baobab Tree or at our stunning lodge, you will find the ideal location for your Safari Bush Wedding.




Acclaimed Italian born architect Enrico Daffonchio designed The Outpost. Using simple, clean lines and combining elements of steel and canvas the unashamedly contemporary design of The Outpost emphasizes its beautiful surrounds but blends and preserves the wilderness that is its home.




Notwithstanding its remote location, The Outpost strives to provide excellent cuisine. The style of food reflects its African surroundings. Care is taken to source the best produce whether available locally or whether it is flown in fresh from Johannesburg. The Outpost offers a variety of places to dine. Breakfast is served under cover in the dining area in the main building with views of the Luvuvhu River Valley. Lunch is either served in the dining area or a picnic lunch is prepared and served out on safari at the riverside or under the Baobabs. Dinner is either eaten in the enclosed courtyard under the stars or on the deck next to the pool.
