Share your budget with him. Tell him what has been accomplished and what has not. There will always be something to sort out

Tell him to give you a Bible or buy you an SUV car or sponsor your wedding reception or build a house for you and your wife.

Greetings, I will make it short as possible.
My marriage will be coming up next week. Day before yesterday my boss call me to his office and ask me what do I want him to do for me concerning my marriage. I was short of words, he asked me the second time what do I want from him. I felt humble, surprised and speechless at the same. He then asked me if I have bought my wedding suit I said "yes sir!" He then asked me again "so what do you want me to do for you?"

Since I could not speak he told me to go and think about it. I'm planning to meet him tomorrow.

One mind is telling me as ask much ( since he is very rich) but it will sound greedy. One mind is telling me to ask just as much as I need but then it will appear I wasted opportunity. He is a rare philanthropist, very nice and love blessing people. Working in his company is more than a privilege...

The truth is that there's no nothing my boss can't afford but I don't want to be greedy.

If you were in shoe what will you do?

Just tell him you will appreciate what he decides to gift you because you trust his choice and willingness.

Note: Don't have too high an expectation so that you won't be disappointed at last. Just make up your mind to appreciate whatever he gives you!

Re: Please Advise: What Should Be My Reply To My Boss by icankel: 11:21am On Mar 28
If u have covered everything already, I suggest you ask him to grace your occasion and if he's really a good man as u said I believe he knows what to do. But if u still have areas u haven't covered I think u should open up to him and allow him help u out.

Just ask for what u want and stop overthinking. remember it is a gift he doesn't owe u anything do be sensible that will impact not just the wedding itself which is a day but the marriage which is after the wedding.

u can draw a list of the things u want and ask him to do any of them he likes or show us then we can choose for u. Lol

I'm really honoured sir that you would care so much, as to want to play an integral part in my wedding. Sincerely, I am grateful...

We actually do have everything covered for the wedding, so just gracing with your presence will add color to my special day...




This is exactly what I would say to him...
I won't present him with any list...
I won't make any request...
I won't throw any gimmicks to get cash from him...

I'll just want him to come around and make sure to honor him very well if he comes...




Nice one Bro

Gadafii:
Somebody like me, I am always at disadvantage in situations like this, I don't know how to ask for help generally, neither do I know how to make demands when I am presented with opportunities to do so


If you ask what me "what do you want" it may take a lifetime to reply you, %99 of the time my response is always "anything from your heart is accepted and appreciated"maybe na over humble wan kill me I no understand, or the fact I hate to see my self as a burden to anyone

Even when I visit people and they ask what should I offer you, you don put me for tight corner be that, just anything, even water will do is always my response


So for you OP, ask for something within the price of that suit he asked, or simply tell him you will appreciate anything what so ever from him, that his presence at your wedding is everything that's if you already confirmed he will be there

Imagine if Solomon had not responded to God's question of "What do you want?"

Think about it and adjust yourself!

Sometimes you just have to speak up for yourself especially when the opportunity is presented to you most times on a platter BECAUSE YOU DESERVE IT well except you think you don't deserve anything good from anyone!!!


For instance, imagine visiting someone and you know you are very hungry, not that you went there to eat but then the question popped up . What can we offer you? We have rice, swallow, beans even yam. We also have ice cream, chin chin and small chops just in case you are not very hungry?

Now, tell me if you will forgive yourself if you should request for water knowing fully well that you have nothing to eat at the time both home and abroad.

As for the OP, it's a different ball game and scenario altogether!

The best response have already been given by 2 persons above but I will like to support by saying that he should go with those 2. Ask your boss to honor you with his presence at your wedding because no gift can be measured to having him present at your big day.

And with the kind of Boss you already painted him to be, people like that don't go to occasions where they're invited and honored empty-handed!

So it's like killing 2 stones with one bird! I'm sure you understand.. lol

Ask for his presence, if he can afford to spare the time.
He will not come empty-handed.

madscientist88:
if you dont know what to tell him just tell him to bless your marriage with a gift from his heart like a father would do to his son at his own will,live everything else to your God, because any sort of request now would sound selfish and might even be a honesty test,who knows? doing this would make you go on the rest of your life feeling guiltless. i mean my dad would have wanted to get me a gift on my wedding but asking me for what i want as my gift is definitely a test, because i shouldn't know what a gift is if its a gift,it should be a surprise,also you are an honest and loyal person so this is an opportunity to place the pass back to him.

May you never run out of wisdom
