A beach, a dinner in a nest above the palms, and a hotel with only a handful of keys. Give them to your people and there is no one else here — not a banquet for a hundred, but a day that feels like the two of you.
A big resort sells a wedding a function room and a set menu, and the day happens next to three other events. Here there is no function room — there is a small hotel with a handful of keys. Fill them with your people and the beach, the pool, the nest and the long evening are simply yours.
That is the luxury that scale can't buy: not a bigger room, but no strangers in it. Elopement or an intimate ceremony, the place fits around the day instead of the other way round.
The ceremony steps from the lagoon, barefoot on the sand, the Indian Ocean as the only backdrop you'll need.
The elevated dinner in the palms — the most requested table at The Nest, and the natural centre of an intimate celebration.
Few keys, so your closest sleep where you marry. Exclusive use turns a hotel into a private house for the weekend.
Tree houses in the palms and villas by the pool for everyone — and the lagoon, the spa and the island for the days around the day.
Five steps, and no surprises in any of them. You never pay for a piece you didn't choose.
You write. We ask what kind of day you're imagining — and listen before we propose anything.
We send the catalogue of what we can build. You tell us which pieces fit. If something isn't on it, we go and find it.
With your date and your chosen services, an itemised à la carte quote. This is where the on-request prices become real, itemised ones.
Signature and a 30% deposit hold the date in our calendar. Until then it stays open for everyone.
In the run-up: timings, the spa schedule, the last decor decisions. You arrive to a day that is already built.
"The most-requested table in the house sits alone above the palms. For a wedding, it stops being dinner and becomes the moment."
Each one is a sunset cocktail on the sand, a seafood grill station and a seated dinner — the difference is how far the grill goes. All three can be adjusted to your tastes; the top two are built around Zanzibar lobster.
Prices are on request. Lobster, flowers and staff move with the season and with the size of your group, so every price is confirmed in the written, itemised quote for your date.
Tropical, barefoot, relaxed. The one most elopements and small groups choose.
Coconut, citrus and mild spice — with a lobster moment at the grill.
Show cooking on the sand, a whole lobster each, and dinner paced like a gala.
Prefer no menu at all? A smaller group can simply eat from the restaurant's à la carte menu on the night — you choose the format, we bring the flavour. Menus are per guest, food only, and exclude drinks; every price is on request and confirmed in your written, itemised quote.

What kind of day, how many, when, and the shape of it. You'll get the direction now and your itemised quote by email — nothing is booked and nothing is charged here.
The hours before a wedding are the ones people remember badly: rushing, borrowed mirrors, a car to somewhere else. Here they happen in your own suite and in the spa, twenty steps from where you'll marry.
On request, like every price on this page: the written, itemised quote is what fixes them.
Nothing below is compulsory and nothing is bundled. Pick the pieces that are yours and the quote is built from those alone.
On request too. Everything below moves with the season and with your date, and each price is confirmed in your written, itemised quote.
Everyone flying to Zanzibar for your wedding books their room with a private promo code and pays 10% less — and not just for the wedding night. The discount applies to their entire stay, so the friends who turn your day into a week aren't punished for it.
It is also the quiet way a small hotel becomes yours: fill the keys with your people and there is nobody else on the property to begin with.
Yes — it's what the hotel is built for. Elopements and ceremonies with your closest people, rather than the large banquet. With few keys, your group can take the whole place for a night or two.
The three beach menus, the drinks and every à la carte detail are priced per guest and per item, all on request. Two people eloping and a group of twenty end up in very different places, which is why we build you an itemised written quote rather than publish a total.
Because they honestly move. Lobster, flowers, musicians and staff all shift with the season and with what our suppliers can hold that week, and quoting a closed figure months ahead would mean either padding it or breaking it. Your written, itemised quote fixes the numbers for your date.
This is an intimate boutique hotel, so weddings here are small by nature — and that's the point. Exclusive whole-place use makes the day feel entirely yours. Larger numbers are a conversation about what the place can hold, answered honestly for your dates.
With the signed agreement and a 30% deposit. Until both land, the date stays open — we don't hold dates informally, because that is how two couples end up with the same Saturday.
Legal weddings in Tanzania involve their own paperwork, and many couples pair a symbolic ceremony here — which our planner can lead and personalise — with the legal formalities at home. We'll walk you through the route that fits your nationality and dates before you commit to anything.
A 10% direct discount through a private promo code, applied to their whole stay rather than just the wedding night.
Send us the shape of it — the date, how many, what you'd want on the sand — and we come back with an itemised quote for exactly that. No template, no package you didn't ask for.
