Destination Weddings · Meru, Kenya

Say "I do" in the Alpine of Meru.

Garden ceremonies, candlelit receptions and a highland landscape made for lifelong memories — all under one estate.

A Wedding Woven from Stories

Where every detail becomes a memory

From the Roman-inspired Italian Gate to the illuminated Garden of Six Senses, Fortunas Resort was designed for moments that matter. Weddings here are quietly cinematic — intimate in feel, generous in scale, and shaped by a team who treats your day as their own.

Ceremony

The Garden Ceremony

Vows Beneath the Meru Sky

Exchange vows in our manicured cypress garden — where a hand-crafted floral arch, cream drapery and warm golden light frame the most important moment of your life.

The lawn seats up to 200 guests and opens onto the highlands, giving your ceremony a sense of scale that indoor venues simply cannot match. Every arrangement is personalised — from aisle petals to signature blooms.

Reception

The Reception

Candlelight, Cuisine & Celebration

Our main hall transforms into an intimate candle-lit dining room styled to your palette. Long farm tables or round settings, gold accents, rich linens and curated florals — designed and executed by our in-house team.

Menus are built with you and our executive chef, drawing on farm-fresh Meru produce, coastal seafood and international classics. Speeches, first dance, cake cutting — every moment is choreographed with quiet precision.

Photography

The Golden Hour Portraits

A Landscape Made for Photographs

The Meru highlands deliver a golden hour that photographers travel across the continent for. Rolling hills, cypress avenues, our Tuscan driveway and the illuminated Garden of Six Senses become your natural backdrop.

We host your photographer and videographer as guests of the resort and coordinate all timings so nothing feels rushed. Every couple leaves with images that could belong on a magazine cover.

Stay

The Honeymoon Suite

Your First Night, Perfected

After the last dance, retreat to a private suite dressed with rose petals, a chilled bottle of sparkling wine and a personalised turndown. A hot bath is drawn. Breakfast arrives quietly the next morning — served whenever you're ready.

Extend into a full honeymoon and explore Meru National Park, Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and the Blue Pools of Ngare Ndare Forest, all within reach of the resort.
