Goshen, I am still awaiting the ring o. Mere 5000 dollars ring is taking so long to deliver.

Chai, Ishi sweerie, why you come open my [size=3pt]yansh[/size] here now? Huh? Okay, you don agree to leaf those chewing bois alone? You know say I no dey like put my money for air

The marriage btw Isaac and Rebekah was a traditional wedding.

Tradinational wedding is right and approved by God.
The reason why most people prefer to go for chuch weddings nowadays is because of the hidden idolatery imbedded in the traditional wedding of some tribes.

There this fear of spiritual attack during marriages.Where a pastor is present,a true man of God,all those curses and incartations will be cancelled by the prayers.

We should not forget that there are really wicked people.

Traditional wedding is approved by God,but you must enquire about the reasons why aligator pepper etc are used.
People can hid charms under their clothes and attend weddings.If such person is called to pray,the prayer is nothing but a curse.
We should not be ignorant of the device of the devil.

Traditional wedding is good if a pastor is there to pray for you or even your church members.

Church wedding is not compulsory.

naptu2: Therefore, people can decide to forego church wedding without suffering any consequences, they cann decide to forego traditional marriage without suffering any consequences, but if they decide to forego registry. . . . .consequences.

Dat kain tin. . .

long and sorrowful story best not stated

@Isilove
When you are ready, the man will be ready.

I will start by removing the word "traditional " from it. Let's just call it marriage
And let's stop calling church marriage white wedding its annoying and I biliv its stems from our slave mentality (why not black wedding what is even wrong with color black)

Let's work towards making it just one wedding .if u are a xtian u can do ur normal wedding with the presence of ur pastor and church members .the parents decision to give out their children is the koko, the colorful atire and well prepaid african delicacy are beautiful.

After the whole thing on sunday u can go for thansgiving in ur church

Somebody said after trad marriage the wife is now yours and my question is she a property

Idont really fancy the idea of pride price if I were a girl I will take as an insult if a man wants to buy me. The main thing is the agreement from the parents and lil celebration to mark the joining of the couple. Thank u

It's always a thing of joy when i see Christians questioning traditions we were born into and accept as part of doctrine when it's in reality not.As someone earlier pointed out,Jesus was a guest at the wedding in cana not an officiating priest or pastor.

Christianity doesn't change the colour of our skins and surely our culture still makes us africans so traditional marriage remains the important thing.Church wedding/reception is mere declaration of surplus money and to show class and gain bragging rights.

Some believe anyway that they need to do church wedding to ward off evil machinations.I guess you cant deny they have the right to but it's not a Christian requirement.

In my own case,i had already convinced my wife and mum in law to skip church wedding based on my dad in law's recommendations only for my own mum to throw spanner in the works insisting that she had to have a big celebration.That is when i knew my sweet wife just 'agreed' to my plans for peace sake.see how overjoyed she was at the church wedding and reception

If you have plenty to spend,do it but IT IS NOT BINDING ON A CHRISTIAN.Registry is more important as a law abiding citizen.

@ayemko,sorry about whatever bad experience you had bro.it's well
