    Surrounded by beauty, inspired by collaboration. Networking with a view. What could be better? We recently had the pleasure of attending Boschendal Farm's launch for their new wedding and event packages, and it was stunning! Collaboration is truly at the core of what we do at Scape Events and this gathering was a perfect reminder of why. The breathtaking surroundings set the stage for conversations with industry peers, caterers, and suppliers. Partners who, like us, are gearing up for a busy and exciting season ahead. We left inspired and ready to take on what’s next. Big thanks to Boschendal for hosting such a beautiful event. Here’s to an unforgettable season of creativity and collaboration. #networking #eventstyling #collaborations

  • We had the pleasure of attending the RHS Chelsea Flower Show for the first time, where we met our garden advisor and landscaping expert, Andy Jasper. Andy Jasper has been instrumental in rejuvenating our Werf Food Garden, and it was delightful to catch up with him and draw inspiration from the show. Congratulations to Leon Kluge and the entire South African team for winning gold, as well as the 'New Design' and 'Best Exhibit in the Great Pavilion' awards! Witnessing such a stunning representation of our home country's flora was truly a proud moment.
