We’re counting down the days to saying “I do,” and we’d be over the moon to share our special moment with you. Please RSVP by 1 JULY 2025 so we can plan with love (and plenty of champagne)!

Our wedding will take place at the beautiful Belair Pavilion in Paarl on Tuesday, 2 December 2025. To help make the planning easier for our out-of-town guests, we’ve block booked accommodation at two nearby venues and have also included a few travel tips to make your stay as smooth as possible.
💫 Where to Stay
We’ve secured a number of rooms at both Belair Pavilion (our wedding venue) and the neighbouring Diamant Estate for the nights of 1st and 2nd December.
Belair Pavilion: We have pre-booked and covered this accommodation, and have allocated rooms for specific guests. If you’re one of them, you’ll receive a personal message from us with all the details. You’ll be able to reimburse us directly for your stay.
Diamant Estate: We've also reserved rooms here and have informed the venue of our guest list. If you’ve been allocated a room at Diamant, you’ll also receive a message from us. You’ll be able to book directly with the estate by mentioning it’s for the Tasmin & Michael Wedding with the date.
We truly wish we could house everyone at these venues, but space is limited. If you’re booking your own accommodation, please know you are just as important to us, and we want to make your experience just as seamless.
🏡 Other Accommodation Options
There are some wonderful stays available in and around Paarl on Airbnb and Booking.com. If you find a spot you love, let us know where you’re staying – we’d love to keep track of everyone’s locations for logistics and shuttles.
🚐 Travel & Shuttles
We’ll be arranging shuttles to and from Boschenmeer and Diamant Estate, and will try to accommodate other locations where possible. If you’re staying outside of these, we recommend pre-booking an Uber for your return trip to Cape Town or your accommodation after the festivities wind down – Paarl is peaceful, and rideshares can be limited at night.
Accommodation at Diamant Estate
If you have been personally contacted regarding accommodation at Diamant Estate, please reach out directly to Wilmarie to secure your booking. When contacting her, kindly include your full name, your partner’s name, and specify whether you're booking for both the 1st and 2nd of December, or just the 2nd of December.
You may email her on functions@diamantestate.com
