Plus or minus as follows:

1. Guests are sitted

2. All kinds of food and drinks flowing around

3. The MC welcomes all and invites people to the high table

4. The bridal train dances to their sits while guests are on stand

5. MC invites someone for opening prayer

6. Chairman gives a word of advise to new couple, others

6. MC invites cake designer to talk about the making of the cake

7. Couple invited to cut the wedding cake and feed each other with it

8. Couples returns to their sits

9. MC invites Mr- I -know- it- all to tell guests how the couple met

10. Couple are invited to show their dancing steps and joined by others to (ops! no more spraying)

11. Gift are presented to the couple and received by the best man/lady

12. The new husband thanks all

13. Mc invites someone for closing prayer

14. The husband holds the wife by the hand and lead her not into temptation but into new life in their house lol

This is the kind of thing that has turned Nigerian weddings to nothing more then a circus to feed and get drunk 100s of people who you hardly know .
Come on who on their right mind wants to know the baking procedure of a cake?!?!
Whenever you hear anything outrageous or stupid about a wedding majority of the time a Nigerian is involved.

This is just the problem some Nigerians have.Then they start screaming that Nigerians have gone to pick foriegn wives.
If you go to a Nigerian wedding and a non Nigerian wedding the first thing that strikes you is not the size but how impersonal Nigerian weddings are.
The Nigerian wedding is a show case with hired master of ceremony(i told a non Nigerian friend this and he laughed that you will use someone who does not know you to do this at a wedding),someone to come talk about the bloody cake ,heavy 12 ft speakers booming etc etc.
So impersonal so wasteful and loads of artifical smiles from people you don't know and likely from the groom side for wasting their money for 3 hours reception.
Na wa.

I hear you! So non intimate. I mean I just don't get it. There's nothing wrong with having an MC but then his duties should  be limited. If i want to listen to a comedian i would go to a comedy club. We really need to reinvent our weddings. Don't even get me started on the guest list. Some people invite everyone they've ever talked to ,  na wa ooooooo

Problem is we keep adopting the white man's way and rather then improve it or make it better we twist it into something laughable.
