About the area
The traditional wedding (on 12 March 2025) will take place at Mamie's home village of Kanye at her family residence 90 minutes' from Gaborone. It will be a traditional Tswana wedding (patlo/magadi).
Crocodile Pools, where the white wedding / celebration will be held (on 14 March 2025) is located very close to Gaborone. There is a dam as well as a river and National Park (Mokolodi) nearby.
