Corporate Events
A picnic is a great way to spoil your staff for their team building or year end function. Your staff are the back bone of the company and without them your company would not be where it is today. Why not say thank you by taking them on a memorable picnic. Whatever the reason for the staff event, let us plan the whole experience from start to finish according to any theme.
As from the 1st October 2011 we will be launching something delightful and different at Aintree Lodge. We are offering a picnic style lunch nestled under our shady trees in a romantic african bush setting. Our guests have the chance to spend a leisurely Sunday under the trees with a blanket, cushions and a tastefully packed picnic basket.

BUDGET HOME WEDDINGS:
Congratulations on your engagement! Right now, you may have hundreds of ideas swirling in your head about what you want for your wedding, and if you’re like most newly engaged couples, that can be a little bit scary! This is a very important task, after all. Your wedding is very important to you, and you may not know where to start. We have the very first steps that you need to take to set your wedding-planning foundation under you, so that you can jump into the fun tasks of choosing floral décor and picking the items for your menu.
A wedding at home? Why not! If your guest list is small, why do you still have to spend all that money on a hall? Why don’t you just have the wedding at home? You won’t need to sit for endless hours thinking of a venue for this big day, because your solution could just be right outside your back door.
Apart from charming and intimate, your dream wedding can be affordable.
Weddings held at home are becoming so popular, especially those that are a little budget-orientated. Apart from that, this gives the couple the perfect opportunity to add a little of their own personal touches here and there. About 60% of the all couples live together, and many of them already have their own homes and would not think twice when deciding to tie the knot in their backyard. Others, because they are deprived of space, decide to get married at a friend or relative’s house.
Weddings held at home simply means that the guest list is going to be shorter. With a small number attending your wedding, you are still able to have all the fun and make the day memorable.
