Safaris

A wedding in the Serengeti

Saying “I do” with the Serengeti savannah behind you. We organise symbolic ceremonies and vow renewals as part of your private safari: the place, the time of day and the rest of the details, together with you.

  • Symbolic wedding or vow renewal
  • Just the two of you, or with guests
  • Part of a private safari
  • Whatever date you choose

Your own ceremony, with the savannah behind you

The ceremony is symbolic: a moment of your own, without paperwork, in a corner of the savannah. Some couples marry here and some come back years later to renew their vows; both are arranged the same way.

If you want the marriage to be legally binding, the simplest way is a civil ceremony in your own country, before or after the trip, and the celebration here.

Where and when

We choose the spot with you and arrange it with the lodge: somewhere looking out over the plains, at sunset, when the light is at its best. The date is up to you: every season has its own landscape, from the green of the rains to the gold of the dry season.

Just the two of you, or with your people

You can come on your own or with family and friends. If there are ten or more of you, the safari runs in several vehicles on the same route, like a group safari, and the price per person comes down.

And then, the honeymoon

The trip does not end with the ceremony: a few more days on safari and, if you like, a Zanzibar beach. We put it all in one quote.
