Weddings are special occasions in which two
adults in love are joined together to become husband and wife (or wife and wife cheesy). It's also an avenue for family and friends of the couple to celebrate the new union.

Therefore, would you prefer to have a small guest list (i.e. 50 or less), moderate list (greater than 50, less than 100), or a large guest list (over 100 guests)?

In my place, if you like have a list for 5 people, as long as people heard about it they will surely come. No need for invitation card sef.

m...

A beach wedding is what I would love, in February or August, I want to put on a lovely pink or blue gown with only 30 or 35 guests in attendance. I want it to be intimate and close. I want him to know that the wedding is about us and not about pleasing some asholes.

even better if we can elope
the averqge whitee loves it that way, never can say why,don't think Most Africans like that style though

Haha. I'll ensure that attendance is strictly by invitation for mine. It will be a maximum of 60 invitees on my guest list.
But it will be impossible to have a small guest list for the traditional wedding, that's if I marry a Nigerian.

I like your being realistic.

See as people dey mention small, 50 etc yet everyday we see multitudes in weddings. Na ghosts wedding be those ones?

Weddings especially in this part of the world is not just about the couple preferences or whatever, parents will come in, colleagues, friends and the list goes on except of course you want it in secret.

i thought you were a Nigerian. so i wanted to say "u don watch foreign movies too much". But i can see you aint Nigerian.

Good opinion. i would follow suit too. The large crowd thing is a Nigerian bias based on sheer desire to show off, most times, influenced by the gal.

i would personally prefer a very moderate wedding.

Saves you money.

Anytime I remember this aspect of the wedding, I instantly get a migraine. I would love a registry wedding with a most 8 guests, but my family would have me murdered if I try any such thing, so mine is already a hugely large wedding by default. sad

Even vivalavida alone is already 50people put in one, cos my wedding party starts like 2 weeks before the actual wedding for him. grin grin grin

I wouldav said just 50 guests lol
But with the size of my family (uncles, aunties, cousins,distant friendly relatives,family friends, dad's friends, mom's friends)
Infact, with my family alone, I'll have over 200 guests
Not to talk of old school mates and friends

This small guest thing is not realistic if you are a Yoruba
