| Is This Okay For A Moderate Wedding? by 1ndidi2(f): 4:42pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
I picked some ideas from a discussion on wedding expenses and came up with this: First we would stock up the house with enough foodstuffs,appliances and all the necessary material things to start a home(good food/entertainment is part of honey moon) Then with the immediate family members alone we do a little get-to-gether in the sitting room for the traditional rites. On a sunday morning we go to church as normal with very few guests- d IV card would read(wedding/thanksgiving/lunch...) So after the mass proper we give thanksgiving,then we proceed to a mr.biggs or something and order up food/drink for the 'very few 'guests. All the guests have to be in church and we all proceed together to the venue! Maybe I won't disclose the venue for the lunch so that quarter of the guests won't be @church and one half would be @the 'mr biggs' already(probably ordering up)! I guess who didn't come to church may miss out! What do you think?X_X 1 Like |

Splendid idea! A Marriage is more important than a wedding! |

@OP: its very okay, as long as ur patner is okay with it As for me, a very little introduction(sitting-room stuff) and Nikkai (Islamic Marriage) in the mosque will seal it for me, Nothing more, after the Nikkai in the mosque, just few foodstuffs will be sealed and shared in the mosque, thats all, no partying, no noise-making, Cash gifts will be highly preferable. NO RECEPTION, NO DANCING, NO NOTHING, We'll do our RECEPTION and DANCING with ourselves later in the Night  2 Likes |

My Wedding: 1. Less than 50 guests. 2. Reception in my compound. 3. Sliced Bread & Stew + Coke (2 to 1 bottle) 4. Honeymoon in one of the rooms of my brother's mansion. Budget? 1. 10 loaves of Butterfield Bread + Two Crates of Coke = N4500 2. Reception Venue = Free 3. Honeymoon = Free  4 Likes |

It is silly to spend millions for wedding in this present dispensation, when Nigeria is cracking down economically. You can use cassava bread if matter is worse,if you don't want go do your own naaa. |

Nice plan but you might also wanna issue a pass, meal ticket or order card to your select guests in church so they can use at the restaurant. In these days of social media, the venue may become someone's status message or bbm broadcast in a matter of minutes |

Weddings and Child Dedication are things you should not hold back your spending. These are happy moments in a lifetime. If you do not spend on Weddings, do you prefer to spend on burials or memorials ? Common, if you must be married, be financially okay. And make sure you spend money on it. I hate conservatism when it comes to once in a lifetime event. Stop this misers mindset, we are not Londoners. 6 Likes |

Stop this misers mindset, we are not Londoners.Well, its actually a once in a life time event but being financially okay does'nt mean you'll cut off your head for people!! Are weddings of 10 million naira budget any better than those of 200K? Does the success of one's marriage depend on the cost of the wedding? Times are changing, and people with it. You have to realise this. 12 Likes |

Santi222: Go ahead and be cheap if you want to, but stop putting down others who can afford to have a classy wedding. Really, comparing a 10 million naira wedding to a 200,000 naira wedding? You must be from Mars. 1ndidi2: There's a fine line between being frugal and being cheap. I think you are cheap. But that's just me. |

Stop this misers mindset, we are not Londoners. it shld be done according to their pockets. u cant say that because dey dont have d cash 4 a lavish wedding,they shldnt wed. i dont subscribe to borrowing 4 a wedding. my cousins wedding was a court wedding followed by a parlour party. and its one of the best weddings i attended. if the marriage falls apart, no one will remember d big wedding.or dey would but in a sarcastic way |

I believe in giving the few guest a worthwhile treatment at my wedding. I like quality, so I could have less than 50 folks but with flowing collector's wines and damn expensive wedding...I'm particular abt d number of guests...the rest will hear abt it and wish they were there. 1 Like |

What borders me most is this issue of honey moon. You see a couple during wedding only for them to disappear into tin air with their cell phones switched off all in the name of honey moon. Some find themselves in hotel fucking without telling anyone their location. What if something strange happens where will the necessary assistance come from. |
