be presented having been authenticated by a notary or solicitor. If either of
you are under 21 years of age you will need written consent from your parents
or guardians, in the form of an affidavit authorised by a notary or a solicitor
If you are
looking for a wedding destination with spectacular wildlife, stunning scenery
and a sense of adventure, then Kenya is for you. Not only does Kenya boast some
of the best safari parks in Africa, its eastern coast is lapped by the warm Indian
Ocean and has miles of white sand beaches, making it a relaxing honeymoon destination
too. You can choose a religious wedding in a church, a civil ceremony in a town
hall or more excitingly - in a safari park. You
will need a special licence to avoid a 3 week residency requirement. This can
be obtained from the Registrar General in Nairobi. Please note that Kenya is very
hot - averaging 29 degrees May - September & 32 degrees December - April. Kenya
offers visitors a land which is breathtakingly diverse. The country has always
been very popular with honeymooners but more couples are now choosing to get married
there too. And
who can blame them with locations ranging from the classic beach wedding, balloon
weddings, wild bush weddings to traditional African weddings. UK residents wishing
to marry in Kenya can have either a Civil Ceremony or a Religious Ceremony.
However no couples will be able to marry in Kenya from December 22 to January
5. Civil Ceremony Civil Ceremonies can be held at the local Register Office or
any other venue provided it has a Special License. If you are considering holding
your Civil Ceremony in a venue other than a Register Office you should enquire
before hand to ensure they have a Special Licence to avoid disappointment. You
are required to have two witnesses present throughout the ceremony. Religious
Ceremony There are a number of different types of Religious Ceremony, which are
recognised under Kenyan law, including Christian, Islamic, Hindu and Traditional
African weddings. However although Hindu, Islamic and African weddings are valid
the Registrar does not usually record them. A
Marriage Certificate would be issued at the end of the ceremony in the case of
a Hindu or Islamic marriage ceremony, and affidavits sworn in the case of African
customary marriag If you are particular interested in having either a Hindu, Islamic
or African wedding you should contact the Registrar of Marriages for further information
with regards how the marriage might be registered in Kenya. If you wish to have
a Church Ceremony then you should contact the church where you wish to get married
in Kenya to enquire about the necessary religious paperwork. You should also contact
you local minister for guidance. Romantic
