How much does a wedding venue cost in Johannesburg South?

How many wedding venues are there in Johannesburg South?

We track 9 in Johannesburg South, carrying 1 928 Google reviews between them, at a median rating of 4.4. Every one is listed with its rating, review count and contact details.

What size weddings do Johannesburg South venues take?

No venue in Johannesburg South publishes a capacity figure to us yet, so ask directly. Guest count drives the final number more than any other factor, because catering scales per head.

Which Johannesburg South venues have the most reviews?

Misty River (641 reviews, 4.1), The Vue (415 reviews, 4.6), Núcleo de Arte e Cultura, Wemmerpan, regent parkJohannesburg (288 reviews, 4.4). Review volume is worth weighing against rating: 4 of 9 venues in Johannesburg South rate 4.5 or better, and 2 rate 4.7 or better, so a high score on a handful of reviews says much less than a slightly lower one on several hundred.

What should I ask a venue about price?

Ask whether the figure is venue hire only or includes catering; the minimum spend or minimum guest count; what happens on a Friday or Sunday versus a Saturday; corkage and bar terms; and what is charged separately — staff, hire items, and overtime. Two venues quoting the same headline number can differ by tens of thousands once those are counted.
