Annorhyn & Nicolas

Goeie dag,

Ek en Nicolas wil hulle hartlik bedank vir alles wat julle vir ons gedoen het. Dit was meer as wat ons van gedroom het, en almal het absoluut ons op ons hande gedra. Julle het werklikwaar ‘n awesome team en al ons gaste het gesê hoe lekker die kos en musiek was. Baie mense het gesê dit was een van die beste troues wat hulle in ‘n lank tyd bygewoon het. Ons is regtig bly ons het julle gekies as ons venue. Asseblief toon ons dankbaarheid aan al die personeel wat bygedra het.

Not only was the venue perfect, the inclusive packages offered for weddings really thinks about the bride and groom. They want you stress free, and they’re quite affordable as well. Sometimes wedding venues can want that and the packages are just ridiculously expensive, I feel Goedgeleven really priced their packages very well. And on top of all of that, Charmaine, the owner was just so heart warming you absolutely want her co-ordinating your wedding day. We also met the sound by Ettienne, he was amazing as well, he answered all our questions and took us on the tour.

A huge thank you to the team at Goedgeleven namely Charmaine, the owner, who has been so warm and welcoming from the beginning and a great help with all our planning. A big thank you to Ettienne, the DJ, and Simone our photographer and first point of reference for any queries. All our concerns, questions and requests were dealt with so much grace and diligence. Lastly, thank you to the rest of the team at Goedgeleven who has assisted us with almost anything on our wedding day. We had such a pleasant experience working with a team of such amazing people. They have made our dream a reality. We wish them all the best for future weddings and events.

We are still reminiscing on our magical day that was made so effortless by Charmaine and the Goedgeleven team! We received so many compliments from our guests with regards to the food, decor, venue and overall vibe. The staff were very attentive, always making sure that ours and our guests glasses were topped up with juice/champagne, clearing up tables very quickly and checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed on the night. Charmaine and Simoné ensured there were no issues when it came to co-ordination on the day. We did not have the best weather but the staff ensured everyone was kept warm and dry. Ettienne, thank you for creating a vibe with the playlist and ensuring everyone had a great time on the dance floor! The Bartenders were a hit – they made signature cocktails which were amazing! The headaches the next morning were well worth it! We cannot thank everyone enough, it was truly the best day and we are so grateful to have had Goedgeleven and the team make this happen!

Where to start? Firstly, just a huge thank you to all at Goedgeleven. Our day was just perfect and exceeded everything we imagined it could be.

We came over from the UK for our wedding and every interaction we had with all the team, whether it be by email or face to face, we were made to feel at ease and understood in everything we discussed/asked for.

We were blown away by every single detail on the day, everything was perfectly planned and executed, making our day easy, as we just had to turn up! The wedding day dream!

The food, drink and service were some of the best we’ve ever experienced. Plenty of our guests are still telling us how much they enjoyed it all.

Special shout out to Charmaine, Simone and Ettienne for making our day so special and organising everything with us from across the world. We’re so grateful for you and everything you did for us, we wish everyone all the best 🧡💛❤️

We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to the Goedgeleven team for creating our dream wedding day. Charmaine, Simoné and Ettienne put so much thought, love and care into every detail – everything was just magical!

As a bride, the Goedgeleven team elimated all of my stress so that I could simply enjoy the day and be radient next to my hubby. In planning our special day, Charmaine was always available, kind, caring and made us feel like the most important couple, while she took care of every detail. It was a real highlight being permitted to have our fur baby as the ring bearer.

There is no better venue or more caring team for your wedding day, than Goedgeleven. It’s not just a job for them, but it’s a passion which is filled with so much love. We could not have asked for anything more or better! Our day was exceptional, magical and better than we could have ever imagined! We will always cherish our magical day at Goedgeleven!

Thanks to Charmaine, Simone, Ettienne and the rest of the Goedgeleven team, we could plan our wedding in 1 month.

I came across Goedgeleven on Instagram and it was love at first sight. Our wedding day (in the middle of the week) was perfect! And even though we didn’t have much time to plan, nothing felt compromised.

Charmaine made sure we had nothing to worry about, Simone captured our dream perfectly ❣️ and Ettienne got both me and my husband out of our shells and on the dance floor for the entire evening 💃🕺.

Goedgeleven is truly an exceptional venue. I’ve had the pleasure of attending both a function and a wedding there, and on both occasions, I was absolutely enchanted by the venue itself. The decor is exquisitely beautiful, the service is impeccable, and the food is outstanding. I wholeheartedly recommend it as the perfect all-in-one package for hosting any event.

I had an incredibly dream wedding, and all credit goes to Goedgeleven – from the events coordinator (Aunty Charmaine) to the catering, DJ, and photographer. Despite my meticulous nature, witnessing the seamless execution of weddings at the venue instilled full confidence in the Goedgeleven staff to bring my vision to life. My wedding was an absolute delight, everything unfolded according to plan.

A week later, guests and family are still praising the beauty of the event, and I find myself constantly reminiscing about that wonderful day. I’m deeply grateful to the Goedgeleven team and wish I could experience it all over again. It was absolutely beautiful🥺♥️ this is definitely the place to have your dream wedding.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Goedgeleven for our special day, and we cannot express enough gratitude for the amazing service we received. From the initial consultation to the final moments of our event, Goedgeleven’s team, particularly Charmaine, Simone, and Ettienne, proved to be nothing short of exceptional.

The professionalism and efficiency demonstrated by this team were truly remarkable. They operated like a well-oiled machine, and it was evident that their many years of experience were paying off. Every detail was meticulously handled, and their expertise shone through at every stage of the planning process.

The team went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day truly special did not go unnoticed. It was evident that they took the time to understand our vision, and they executed it flawlessly. Their dedication and passion for their work were palpable, and it made our experience with Goedgeleven truly memorable.

I got married at Goedgeleven and honestly I have nothing but GREAT things to say, all my guest complimented the venue on how excellent the food was, the service of the waiters and bar staff, the music and how great the sound was and how beautiful the venue looked because of Marshalls trouble with the beautiful flower arrangements and the decor. As the bride I had nothing to worry about as Charmaine and her team addressed every little thing and told me, not to worry she will sort everything out, and I mean everything!!!! Charmaine even helped me sort out last minute things with my dress before I walked down the aisle, she assisted the little flowergirls and ring bearers when they were a little shy. The day was absolutely perfect! A few guest left their gifts behind and some personal belongings, which I received the following morning after the staff had cleaned up the venue. If you as a bride want a stress free wedding, full of beautiful memories I can HIGHLY recommend Goedgeleven.
Thanks Charmaine & Goedgeleven staff, you did an excellent job and made my day so special!!

What an experience to have our perfect wedding day at Goedgeleven.
Charmaine and her team is just incredible. From Marshall with his impeccable taste and producing the most beautiful decor, Simoné who answered countless emails and queries with such friendliness and professionalism, to Ettienne who brought the “jol” with the best music – everything about Goedgeleven was just amazing!

Charmaine’s guidance in bringing us such a stylish and fun wedding, reassuring words and amazing professionalism resulted in us not having to stress about a single thing.

A few notable things to mention is that the bar is extremely affordable, they have a backup generator and the setting, staff and service is just out of this world. Goedgeleven is constantly bringing new things on board to produce the most special functions. They bought a cold spark machine to give us a first dance that looked like a celebrity couple’s first dance.

And the best thing – they are super affordable!

Do yourself a favour and pay Goedgeleven venue a visit. You won’t be disappointed!

Netto Invest (Corporate Function)

Dear Charmaine, Simoné, Etienne, Monique (Front of house) and the rest of the Goedgeleven Team,

On behalf of Netto, the directors and staff, I would like to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation for the MOST AMAZING venue and host to our staff end-of-year function. Everyone loved the venue and some were definitely considering having their weddings and parties there 😉.

A BIG THANK YOU for so generously allowing us to use the furniture – it definitely enhanced our experience. And then of course the table décor was absolutely stunning, thank you for going the extra mile.

To your chef, we simply loved the food, and our vegetarians thoroughly enjoyed the special curry he prepared 😊

Etienne, you really kept our staff on their feet with your DJ skills 😊 Not once was that dance floor empty lol! Thank you so much for creating a great atmosphere.

To the rest of the staff who stayed on top of things all day long, thank you for your excellent service. The event would not have been a success without all of you.

I could go on and on about how wonderful it was to have our function at Goedgeleven, but I will have to settle with a simple WELL DONE! It couldn’t have gone any better.

I wish you and your team great success and favor. May Goedgeleven go from strength to strength in 2024!
