Good afternoon all, please I need an insight into this situation . I am getting married in December and we are planning a small in house wedding with a maximum of 50 guest . we are from different tribes and I understand that matters of such magnitude must be treated with sensitivity. he is isoko ( delta state) and I am Yoruba .My question ,is what traditional attire should we wear? would have bought to separate attires , may be we wear the Yoruba own first and wear the isoko attire later, but we are n a tight budget so we need to settle for one . Please note that he doesn't mind but I just want to ensure that everybody is happy.

Kekeekkeke...y disturb ur self on attire to put on...wen u guys can do it naked..u knw wat I mean,.less expensive...jst passing with my camel

I think wedding is for woman! So far he doesn't mind any,why not go for the Yoruba Attire to save cost....because I blve going with his tribe Attire is more costly than the Yorubas....olorun amu ojo ro o,...wish you a successful Marriage in advance.

Isoko attire.

Are you doing it at your place? I think it'all be more appropriate to use your own traditional attire.

Give him the honour!!

Wear the Isoko attire.

Both... Or he wears Yoruba while you wear Isoko. This will signify the coming together and embracing the two cultures

Thank you all for all your advice, the really dilemma is I want to be respectful to everyone involved . he really doesn't mind which ever attire . I love the isoko attire with the two wrapper thingy and the blouse .

@Lord Reed we are doing it at my place
@Royal Boy give him the honour and disrespect my people, just looking for a common ground
@baby_123 just think the pictures might not look to good with the suggestion.

Thinking we might need to look at our budget again and find a way to incorporate it in. thanks again

Since its gonna be done in your place as a mark of respect and regard to your family, you guys should stick with the Yoruba attire. In as much as you want to please everyone your finances dictates prudence.

Royal Roy: Give him the honour!!

Wear the Isoko attire.

Wear his

chaircover: This is what always amuses me when it comes to weddings/marriage

so much energy/time/resource/thought is spent on the wedding preparations, but when asked to invest that much into the actual marriage it becomes a problem

Youv are so right CC. It is amazing almost as though they never courted. May God help us all!
