How To Plan Your Nigerian Wedding For N20,000 Or Less by Opinionated: 6:05pm On Jul 02, 2017
By Adeniyi Emmanuel Bamgboye

Do you know you can spend just N20,000 on your wedding and still retain your champion as a perfect gentleman and in-law? Don’t worry, I am an accountant, I will give you a succinct breakdown.

Registry fee is within N12,000 – N14000 depending on the local government you wish to use. Let’s pick the upper range which is N14,000

Don’t go and buy egg roll. One is now N80. You know you cannot afford this; the best is to go for Ghanaian buns. One is N20 , you can buy it loju (at) dozen for discount sake. Buy 2 dozen because of the impromptu and accidental guests. That’s approximately N450. It could be lesser, if you can bargain well.

Buy a crate of 7up, not coke or Fanta. That’s N1,400
Budget N1,500 for cab transport. Uber is cheap. It’s your wedding day. You can’t afford to be a “trekkist” on that glorious day.

You don’t need a photographer. Use the camera on your phone. If you don’t have a camera phone, you can use your friend’s own.

To achieve all these, you have to make your wedding an alupaida (mystical) event. The one where your blurry wedding pictures will just surface magically online without you giving any of your friends prior notice. Some of them may be angry with you. Beg them well. They will understand.

Don’t bother about new clothes; wear what you have at home.

For your refreshment to be sufficient, make sure your guest list includes both parents (yours and hers), two of your friends who will also sign and act as witnesses and cameramen respectively.

In total, you have 10 guests including you and your wife. With this, the Ghanaian buns and 7up are likely to go round. You would even have more than sufficient for the court staff who are fond of doing “Atenu”

Back to my analysis. N14,000 + N450 + N1,400 + N1,500 equals N17,350.

With this, you will have N2, 650 as change. Use it to cook honeymoon Soup. Enjoy your life to the fullest with your wife.

Implement this religiously and thank me later.

Don't go broke trying to impress? Getting married is the objective not to get into debt.

Well...

This is for those who can't afford something more decent. Anyway sha, just say I do I do and carry you property home. Marriage don start

O ga o

Instead of buying Ghana buns, why not make small chops? It won't cost up to 10k and it will be enough to go round.

Lol, this would have been very possible in the last century.
Anybody who budgets less than 100K for a wedding in Nigeria right now isn't ready for marriage and should go and sleep.
BTW

The recession of this Buhari's regime has really made people come to the realization of the value of money and how to mange resources efficiently.
What the writer proposed is very very possible.
I was at the market the other day to get some food items. I did not have enough money.
Usually, I do my shopping sharp sharp. Within 30 minutes I can get all the items I would be needing for a whole month. In short, I can just stand at a spot and run all my show within minutes.
But due to the hardship, I discovered that the more time you spent relating with sellers, the more value you'd get. So I spent approximate 45 minutes with the aboki selling beef. We talked and talked and talked and talked. Everything talkable. Buhari's government, APC/PDP, Evans the kidnapper, IPOB, everything. I made sure I was always on his side.
At the end, I had more than enough meat for my soup and stew. The woman selling the vegetables and ingredients was not left out... I spent close to an hour too at her shop. We talked and talked and talked about the hike in food items and also about church things. I turn brother xxxx. In short, I had to help her cut vegetables for other customers. The stuffs I got from her were almost free. Omoh, these days... One has to be super creative ooooo. Nice one OP.

Well, better than getting into debts because you want to impress people. But tbh, I can't think of any Nigerian girl I know who'll agree to be married off this way.

A Gladiator does not fear death. He embraces it. Caresses it. bleeps it. Each time he enters the arena, he slips his cock in the mouth of the beast, and prays to thrust home before the jaws snap shut.

Seems you don't know Nigerians, once they attend a wedding and food isn't sufficient, you'd become the gossip of the town. hahahaha. I can never forget Iya Sukurat in my school. She's a pro in that.
