5. MC invites someone for opening prayer

6. Chairman gives a word of advise to new couple, others

6. MC invites cake designer to talk about the making of the cake

This is the kind of thing that has turned Nigerian weddings to nothing more then a circus to feed and get drunk 100s of people who you hardly know .
Come on who on their right mind wants to know the baking procedure of a cake?!?!
Whenever you hear anything outrageous or stupid about a wedding majority of the time a Nigerian is involved.

This is just the problem some Nigerians have.Then they start screaming that Nigerians have gone to pick foriegn wives.
If you go to a Nigerian wedding and a non Nigerian wedding the first thing that strikes you is not the size but how impersonal Nigerian weddings are.
The Nigerian wedding is a show case with hired master of ceremony(i told a non Nigerian friend this and he laughed that you will use someone who does not know you to do this at a wedding),someone to come talk about the bloody cake ,heavy 12 ft speakers booming etc etc.
So impersonal so wasteful and loads of artifical smiles from people you don't know and likely from the groom side for wasting their money for 3 hours reception.
Na wa.

I hear you! So non intimate. I mean I just don't get it. There's nothing wrong with having an MC but then his duties should be limited. If i wanna listen to a comedian i would go to a comedy club. We really need to reinvent our weddings. Don't even get me started on the guest list. Some people invite everyone they've ever talked to , na wa ooooooo

Problem is we keep adopting the white man's way and rather then improve it or make it better we twist it into something laughable.

Please am in dear need of advice concerning this topic. I have been giving the assignment of being the MC of a wedding next month. So I need someone to advice me on what to do, from beginning to the ending, because most of the things am reading online seem to be different from what is obtainable here in naija.
I have not seen anywhere it is writing that there will be a presentation of Kola in a wedding, but it is part of the program for the wedding.

Please advice me, including suitable jokes for the wedding.
Thanks.
