@least 5million for a colourful one.

Must you do a noisy wedding? after spending 1.5m on wedding now, what will you and your wife eat after the wedding?

Most people do noisy wedding just to satisfy their families.

90 percent of couple live in struggles durrring the first 2-3 month of their marriage, because they will be busy paying back photographers and other bills they have incured during wedding.

Go for a low key wedding, this is my 1k to you. so you and your wife can live in abundance after the wedding.

This is also my plan too, cos i will be getting married before the middle of this year.

conquistadores:
Just do court wedding. Chose wdnesday mornin wen pple are at wrk so u'll hv few attendees.
Prepare beans purridge and pap for reception at ur place.

Leave ur toilet door open!

oseiwe:

I no wan phone you plenty months later and you squash my budget oh! Inshort, I go talk to you first before I propose

nnamdizen:

Switpal:

Tinyemeka:


What kinds of souvenirs would you buy for N20k?
Foods stuffs alone + caterer fees would gulp 150 - 200k, excluding drinks.

colossus2:
Why spend so much to feed the whole world in a day who care not about your marital life after the ceremony, aand pro'ly visit another wedding the following weekend.

puhleeze:
My wife just reminded me of some I did not remember..... The wedding cake was 10steps, 6 cartons of apples, 600 cupcakes, 600 packs of chin-chin, 30 bridesmaids andd 10 groomsmen, u may not believe it but I did not send upto 2.5million for my wedding.

But I made close to 1.2million after my wedding from cash gifts

Have a budget for everything.

Shop around, ask people to suport you by paying for some stuff.

The most important things are your pictures and good music, food and drinks. Everything else is jaara (why do you need a video, most are badly shot and edited, and you will watch it once and that's it.)

If you spend cheaply and expect guests to spray you, you're deceiving yourself. we attended a wedding recently, the poorer groom's side was fed quickly whilst our side was delayed from eating for an hour after all had eaten (all we were given was water). The couple started dancing, expecting to be sprayed by the more comfy bride's side. We sat and removed our faces. The couple started coming to our table to greet us, we greeted them and sat down. Moral of the story: know your important people in the crowd and take care of them. There are people you take care of well, so you reap the benefits.

Brides, stop buying bridal shoes. Get silver shoes you can wear after. And you can borrow a veil, hairpieces and jewelry.

do a nice IV and a cheap programme, as most peole will judge you on your IV and decide whether or not to show up. Remember you want the right caliber of generous guests.

If you plan well, you can get a lot of gifts and cash gifts.

Vision4God:


Probably budgeting vfor 30-40 piple only.

emmabest2000:
Wrong calculation , it's between 2m plus to 4m plus , dollar is 220naira per one dollar now !

Godmother:


I support o. Don't think you will be able to get drinks and food for 150k. A cow alone is worth close to that and except you plan on serving Limca to a low no of guests, like 100, that amount will go nowhere.

Beedude:


Haahaa.. Do people still drink limca ? Dr pepper will be better or gold spot

I think location plays a part in ikeja a hall small size is like N450k to N800k then how about photograph er thats like the documentation guy i think digital photography with photo book is like N100k to N350 . How about video guy well all depends on you and what you want. On my wedding day i spent alot of money un budgeted and found myself owing a few people after the wedding . Just be careful with funds.
