Many countries may require a yellow fever vaccination proof after you have visited Kenya. Please check the requirements from the country you are going to after Kenya.

Question

Do I need to take malaria precaution medication?

Answer

We suggest everyone seek their own professional medical advice on the ‘malaria risk’. However, to the extent this is relevant: In Nairobi(the wedding location), we do not take any Malaria medication, as this has been labelled as ‘malaria-free’ by the WHO due to its high altitude and urban environment. If planning to visit the Kenyan coastal areas before or after the wedding such as Lamu, Watamu, Malindi, Diani, Mombasa; these are high risk areas, and we recommend prevention medication be taken before, during and after your travel there. Please consult your doctor.
