Wedding Package Wedding Package We have been organizing weddings in Watamu for over 30 years. Our experienced wedding coordinators will be delighted to work with you to ensure your day is magical and exactly what you want. You give us your dream, and we then make it happen. The details that go into planning a wedding are what truly define the memorable event. HemingwaysWatamu has wedding packages that have considered everything down to the smallest detail. We have a diverse menu selection, a selection of bar services and a stunning location to help create the wedding of your dreams. You Dream…… We Make it Come True A CHOICE OF VENUE From a simple private ceremony just for family; to receptions and dinners for over 200; we have done it all. • Garden or Beach Weddings • Dhow Weddings • Pool Terrace Areas Venue Charge - Ksh 1,000 per person Menu Choices We have attached sample buffet menus, plated service menus and our A la Carte menu to give you an idea of the items that we produce on a regular basis. We have also included a couple of example canape choices with costs for you. We are able to make items of your choosing if you have any favourites. If you would like to choose a couple of options then these can be priced up for you. Our extensive buffet options allow your guests a wider choice than the plated service and we recommend this option for larger weddings. In order to ensure that speeches can be fit in we coordinate with you and for example have had the first speech once clients are seated, then served a plated starter to everyone; then had another speech. Then main course was a buffet and then, when most had finished this, there was the last speech and then the cake cutting and then dessert was served with the cake. Included in the per person dinner charge is the setup of tables, chairs, cutlery and crockery. We provide white table cloths and chairs. Other decorations are dependent upon the wedding group choices. We will do the decorating for you but you need to advise on what you want/need. For example one of our weddings purchased a kikoy or a khanga for each place setting which was tied to the chair backs. This provided a lovely colourful background and was also a gift for each guest to take home at the end of the evening.
