lol I anchored a wedding like this last year. That one was about 30guests tho, it was really fun but I can imagine their friends and family coming after them when they hear about the wedding later...

Having a low-key wedding doesn't necessarily mean that they are struggling. It could just be how they wanted it as well.

What some doesn't know is that having a very expensive wedding means people that witnessed it have something to talk about for a while after which it's forgotten. So why spend so much? Some even borrow while others use their house rent to wed rather than pay landlord/lady

Sometimes simplicity last longer than extravagance.

God bless their union.

My Neighbor told us it was just the Priest, his wife and him on their wedding day. The solemnisation was in the Priest's office. The next day they were off to America where he lived then. They are still happily married with lovely kids and a very big house grin

How many ladies can agree to this
Re: Couple Hold Simple Wedding On A Weekday With Only 7 Guests (Photos) by omoiyalayi(m): 3:43pm On Jan 23, 2018
In some of the over elaborate wedding the woman is always the one pushing for it even if it means going into debt

Many nowadays ladies prepared more for the wedding that will last a day rather than marriage that will last a life time

I guess this man need this marriage certificate for something, either travelling doc or something else and doesn't buy the idea of court marriage.
Firstly wedding on a Wednesday that is not even a festive period
secondly no officiating ministers and choristers (from the poster write up)
thirdly wedding with a purple dress in catholic, even pregnant women doesn't.
the wedding is obviously emergency as maybe to the fact that that either of them need the cert with urgency.
Nevertheless, May the Good Lord Bless the union with all that nourishes and keep home alive.

I sense almost same thing in this case, coz there are so many ways of doing wedding in a low key but not this. One mustn't do a feast after wedding before it got to the notice of people that you're married, the most important is the priest blessing the union.

A Nigerian couple have proved that less is more after their very simple wedding went viral and became a trending topic on social media.

Mr James and Mrs Blessing got married on a weekday with only 7 guests in attendance. The bride was dressed in a purple gown, not the traditional wedding dress, for her wedding. They were joined in holy matrimony in a Catholic Church and that was the end. There was no reception or any further ceremony.

The couple looked comfortable enough so it was clear they didn't have a simple wedding because of lack of funds. A witness, who was in church praying when they came in for their wedding, was impressed by this and he shared their story on social media.

My church wedding was in the Chapel; but my traditional marriage was big. I could afford the material things but not the stress involved in another round or partying. This is the 15th year and we are a fantastic couple. Most couples stress themselves to please others. Some Catholic marriages hold in the priest's office. The Church doesn't emphasis on glamour and grandeur.

This is the kinda wedding I would have done if I'm a Christian. Strictly by invitation, no invitation card no access to the hall.

This is how wedding should be. It was so in the beginning but the rich later turned it to something else. Now marriage is like a competition. God save us.

it's illegal. Legal marriages are supposed to be celebrated openly no matter how small.

Wise couple. At least they are free From all those scavengers inform of guests. And also all those 'mogbo mo branch'.
People will come and eat, then leave the couple to struggle it out.
