@ poster: the amount you will spend on your wedding purely depends on your STATUS in the society. you cannot tell a barber that 450k is too small for a wedding. "I BELIELVE YOU DRIFT WITH MY FLOATS " grin grin grin

Yes, depending on your spending, you just have to limit your spending power.

darn right you are.

it depends on your financial standing.
however, i dont think a barber, tailor, etc. will ask such a question on nairaland since most of them know how to sort themselves out.

however, if you are a banker or anything in that white collar category (where people expect a lot from you), just do a registry wedding, invest in long-lasting rings and use the rest on your new family. remember people will come, chop and go, na u and the new bride go remain.

so i wish you best of luck.

You did not give the young man the opportunity to tell you if He is planing the party Big or not.
Let's start the analysis here in assumption.
Your wedding ring to go for 50,000.00 or above
lets estimate 2 bag of rice for the type you may have in mind --- 30,000.00
drinks(juice, wine, carbonated drinks e.g coke fanta) --- 150,000.00
couples wares for the wedding- 124,000.00
ingredients ----- 120,000.00

as you can see there is a lot I left here untourched, there for you don't need to have it Big by all means. If you have committe of friends arranging things and family who will still support you it's good, but the best is for you mind the cost and save rest of the money. If you give 10 people 1 cow to eat they will say you are not financialy wise, in case you give 10 people 1 chicken they abuse you. then do it to please yourself not anyone. call your girl and let her know what is on ground and agree on how things shld go.

Do the wedding in ur compound for village or at a big space close to where u reside. U can also use fish if meat isnt enough. Any one wey food no reach make him go house like that

You can plan a wedding for under 100k. It all depends on
what you want to do but if you want some quality and style,
450k no reach anywhere.

Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by Nobody: 1:56am On May 09, 2009
you guys are just too funny - what kind of wedding in 2009 costs N450K,

abeg when ur ready to marry call us.
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by bullicom: 7:48pm On May 09, 2009
450k would do. I have seen people plan with 200k. A fancy wedding is not a do or die affair.
More importantly it is after the wedding that is the koko. Would u use or all ur money for d wedding and
go and soak garri with ur wife.
In summary there is nothing that cannot be planned. Just make sure u dont invite those who adviced
that 450k is not enough
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by vanitty: 7:53pm On May 09, 2009
ofcourse it will be enough, but you will have to do without a lot of items and almost all luxuries.
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by invisible2(m): 8:45pm On May 09, 2009
Thats easy, 4,500 naira can finish the early morning mass wedding anytime.

E go fit, but na una go cook the food o, and the reception go be for your house.(if ya palour no big, do am compound) No body for chop twice and no more than 1 meat. If you buy pure water as opposed to bottle water, you will also save yourself a few bucks. Good luck
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by Oxone(m): 1:51pm On May 10, 2009
wedding musn't be a big one, just get family members together.
i believe life goes on after the wedding, there's no point spending everything on that day & having nothing or little to fall back on.
if you only invite close family members, u'll have a lot left for your honeymoon in a very nice place in naija
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by AmAlone: 3:04pm On May 10, 2009
God no go let me plan a weeding for 450k! AMEN!!!


It will do depending you your planning

Afterall Jesus Christ Fed 5000 ppl with 5 loaf of bread and two fishes. . .
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by Phony200(m): 3:58pm On May 10, 2009
450k can do a wedding just as fine as 45milli. You just need to make sure costs are minimised like the hall issue. Also, as much as possible, limit crowd!! Do it in your village and transport your chosen guests smiley
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by GeorgeD1(m): 4:30pm On May 10, 2009

bros, continue saving untill you hit 4.5M. i'm sure you'll hit your mark before
the next 5yrs grin
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by nich(m): 7:52pm On May 13, 2009
i dont think so. or @ least not with the show-off of nowadays.
on the otherhand, how soon's the wedding? you could invest the 450k in some biz if the wedding is 3 years from now.

just my 2 cents!
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by GeorgeD1(m): 8:39pm On May 13, 2009
has wedding become an investment now?
