THE BOMA
Large Wedding Venue for your big day
The Boma is a beautiful and unique venue that offers a truly special experience. Whether you're looking for a rustic African wedding venue, a corporate function location with a difference, or a private party spot, the Boma is the perfect choice. With its natural setting, unique design, and range of facilities, the Boma is a venue that will make your event one to remember. Surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees, the Boma offers a stunning outdoor setting for weddings, corporate events, and private functions.
The Boma is complete with a bridal salon, chapel, full reception facilities, picturesque gardens, water feature, and extensive parking. The chapel can seat 100 guests inside and because of the open nature of the construction, can accommodate plenty more around the outside. In the event of inclement weather there are blinds that can be rolled down for your comfort. With the beautiful surrounds, and calming melody of the wind through the rustling sugarcane, this is the perfect wedding venue for that outdoor feel.
The Boma, our larger venue, is a 400 square metre open sided building which can accommodate up to 400 guests with a dance floor and a stage area, and is set in beautiful gardens which, at night, are transformed into a fairyland with lights in the trees and bridge. A private chapel, water feature and dark wood poles, with tiled roof structure is surrounded by seemingly endless space.
Secure parking, state of the art kitchen and excellent staff are just some of the factors that will ensure your Collisheen experience to be peaceful, private, professional and perfect.
