I've been to both Igbo and Yoruba wedding receptions. One thing I know for sure is that in Yoruba weddings food is usually surplus amd they don't discriminate whether you are "mo gbo mo branch" one reason is that Yoruba foods are cheap to prepare unlike Igbo foods.

In Igbo weddings the meat is very small unlike yoruba weddings which you have bigger meats in Igbo weddings drinks most especially beer is very very surplus that I can boldly attest to .
So it's a matter of choice when next you attend a wedding party or any other party be sharp and calculate ahead when it's time to share food. Make friends with the servers, be ready to flip seats or better still keep two seats at a time one in front row and other in back row cos u can never tell wherr food will ist be served. Never settle for "there is rice but no meat'' it's crazy.

It's actually a problem in igbo weddings.
After spending a lot during the traditional marriage rites, they get to the white/trad wedding and all their plan is to recoup all the money.

-They will sell egg
-Sell handkerchief
-To cut cake...money
-Before they come in, you must arrange money on the path they'll dance through.
-Then they come in and dance and you'll still drop money on their chairs before they sit
-They will line the bridesmaids or aso ebi ladies and guys must come drop a certain amount for them to go sit down.

Some are innocent of these charges though.

In all you said you didn't mention when you gave money to support the couple. After eating the food you left, that must be your only reason for going there. Akpiri ogologo.

Mod pls stop bringing igbo matters to front page. Whether the post is in positive or negative light, I just hate igbos. They are stingy, backward, fraudulent and money-mongers.

Igbo people will sell you their own shit sef and proceed to tell you how this particular shit, eh, came from the arse of the gods. And how just one teaspoon will fertilize all your farms for 3 months straight.

Eat well and drink enough water before you go to Igbo party cos if you don't, you slump before the party starts

Guyman02:
Na food you find go there abi na wedding you attend?
In reality, many Igbo occasions focus on cartons of beer and alcohol and less on food as that is the story the people will use to tell about the event as in 'there was so much drink that many people got drunk' while Yoruba events focus more on food and meat and less on drinks.

Actually, there is also another mentality in Igbo events that if people finish eating early they will desert the event and the venue will be empty.
Normally coolers of food are prepared and labelled according to groups expected at the event such as Umuada, Ndi Youth, Friends of the bride and groom, in-laws, age grade, etc Next time find the group you belong to and your 'chairman' will be the one to go and get your food. But unfortunately you didnt belong to any group you gate crashed and you are lamenting on social media

Abeg no vex with them jare! Afterall, no where in your thread did you mention how much you sprayed on the couple or how much you paid into their account as support; Igbos dont actually like your type at their events who focus on what you can get and the food you will eat free.

Next time you want to attend Igbo event chop very well for house but be ready to be drenched in plenty bottles of beer which was why they shared 33 larger beer when you were expecting to chop rice
