The Forum Embassy Hill

 

Nestled in the heart of Constantia, Forum Embassy Hill is a historic estate that blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. Built in 1952 as a private family home for the Hamilton Russel family, it was subsequently the Embassy of The Netherlands for 40 years.
Today, this reimagined residence offers a private and exclusive setting for weddings that feel intimate, personal, and effortlessly stylish.

Located just 25–30 minutes from Cape Town’s city centre, Embassy Hill is close to world-class attractions such as the Cape Peninsula, and is adjacent to the Constantia Wine Valley and Table Mountain — making it a popular choice for both local and international couples.

The venue overlooks False Bay, Cecilia Forest, and the scenic Constantia Nek, offering stunning natural backdrops throughout the property. Its seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces makes it ideal for memorable celebrations.

The Conservatory, the main reception space, comfortably accommodates up to a 160 guests, including a dance floor. Full-height stacker doors open onto the garden, bringing the outdoors inside and creating a bright, airy atmosphere. The Grand Lawn offers the perfect location for your ceremony , with Cecelia Forest as the backdrop, a serene and romantic setting for your vows. The Pool Garden is ideal for pre-reception drinks and canapés, while the Library offers a quiet, elegant space for signing the marriage register or relaxed portraits.

Embassy Hill includes four individually styled bedrooms, accommodating up to eight overnight guests , with breakfast provided the following morning.

Venue hire includes:

Tables, chairs, crockery, glassware, and cutlery
Full food and beverage service
Professional staff and dedicated event team
Secure parking for up to 100 vehicles

With its neutral, timeless décor, Embassy Hill provides a versatile canvas for any wedding vision. The experienced events team ensures every detail is handled with care, allowing you to enjoy your day with ease and confidence.
