I am a young guy with dreams of marrying the love of my life, ...well, i am looking at an off-season event around March/April...
i have a Job that can barely provide for our needs and i wouldnt wait for the grass to be all green before i make a move..
here are my challenges;
1. i have no idea what the EDO/Bini traditions are.since i plan on doing a simple traditional wedding.
2. I am working with a slim budget...have to setup other things besides feeding "the nation"
3. I am Isoko, our traditions are miles apart, i hardly know mine even
4. Fiancée is overly insistent on a white wedding ...woman and white gown they just cant get enough of their selves
5. HELP.....i cant tell a benin shoe from a flapper or goat from a cow...if u knw what i mean

i would appreciate help from any nice gentleman/woman...from Edo state or married to .i truly need some insight cause this is overwhelming already...ehen..some budget tips if available would be nice as well [b][/b]
note: Budget is 600k-800k is this humanly possible?

First, gimme dt 800k and come back in 12months for a 50% turn over plus your capital.
You can save dt much for wedding but u can't comfortably feed 'a nation'.
Here's d deal, impregnate dt thing of yours first and let's see if she or her family will die. I bet u, they'll ask u to pls come and do a little introduction and take your thing home after 7months into pregnancy.
See? Both your cash and lady are intact. Go into business you idiott!

Edo traditional marraiges are nt expensive, compared to some others, and they dnt discriminate or bother what part of the country ur frm.

Dnt sweat, ur nt marrying an ibo or shuwa arab girl.

As fr the attire, its the girl who wears it, ur expected to come in ur own traditional attire.

She needs , lots of bead on the head , chest and waist.

Bwahahaaaaahahaaaa!!!!! My laff haf finishes... Haaahaaahhhhhhaa!!!!! But seriously,na wa for some comments oh....

@OP, in the process of making Benin lady my wife. So I can assure u that the traditional requiments, is not much. If u are given a list, at most 80k shld take care of it. The only thing u would be botherd about is the after party, which u would decide how big u want it to be. So with that budget I think u can comfortably do a traditional marraige, but definitly won't be enough for both Trad and white.
