skydeep: If you dont have a car will you walk with your bride on the street? . The best is to borrow

vanstanzy: "Cut ur coat according to ur size", best answers ur question.

Babzilla: NICE STORY SERVES THE GROOM RIGHT. SADLY THIS FOOLISH TREND MUST CONTINUE COS THE FOOLISH CHICS WANT 2 FLAUNT BIG CARS 2 THEIR FOOLISH FRIENDS AND THE FOOLISH MEN WON'T SAY NO. NO WONDER WE HAVE MANY SPINLESS FOOLS WHO CANT HEAD THEIR HOMES PROPERLY

And after d occassion you can continue using legmosine. I'll rather remain myself than showing what I am not capable of achieving in few yrs time. I wonder y most pple do more than themselves. Some pple even go to d extent of borrowing money for wedding. Does it really worth that?

Fhemmmy:

There us nothing wrong in renting a limousine for a wedding, that was what they are for . . . And that does not mean that the man and the bride should remain without a ride, and besides it is not a ride that defines a man, but a man defines it . .

oyestephen: Its babyish, fake, irresponsible and morally wrong. It has no justification whatsoever

promire2004: It's not a must, rather it's a necessity. You don't expect the couples to trek down to the venue of the wedding all in the name of been frugal. I don't think a right thinking person would hire a ferrari or phantom for a wedding when u're just an average income earner. It's unfortunate that the couples were embarrassed in this manner. Personally, I see nothing wrong with hiring a car for a wedding. That is why it is good to make deals with reliable car hire companies. Mehn, wedding is once in a life-time affair and it's necessary that everything falls in place.

ab1x:
You're pretty right but most pple that rent car do not have car(personal view). Using limo for a wedding is alright if u have d doo but some pple go to d extent of borrowing money before they can settle down. I can't get married and start settling debt. Never !

dnative: On the flipside, I'm curious to know if the bridegroom was in the wrong from a legal standpoint. If he made some payment to the dealer to use the car for a wedding, then his agreement really is with the dealer while the dealer may in turn have another agreement with the car owner to sell the car. Both agreement are independent and if the car owner have any issue with how the car has been used, then this should be a matter to be taken up with the dealer, provided for instance the car has not been reported stolen. I guess the car owner might have pondered on this (after the initial naija style knee jerk reaction of "call in the boys to scatter ground" ) hence his decision to leave the car behind and take up issues with the dealer (I pity the dealer though).

econome: I noticed it has come a tradition to rent/borrow big cars for wedding.
Yesterday around Ikeja, the owner of a rented/borrowed car landed at the wedding reception. When he got to where the car was packed, he asked who packed the car? The bridegroom answered "its my car". The owner looked at other people who followed him, then he moved back and called the police.

In 5 minutes, the police stormed the place with 2 fully loaded keke Napep(lol). Sundenly, we saw The bridegroom, and others started begging. What happen was that owner of the car gave it to a dealer to sell, the foolish car dealer never knew car would be used at the owner's neigborhood. I am sure he would have collected atleast N20k from the bridegroom. They called the dealer several time, but he never pick it.

The owner was such a nice person, he left the car with them and the police took picture and left.

My advice, if you must borrow/rent "by-force"a car for your wedding never go to a car dealer.

Fhemmmy:

The man did nothing wrong, but i am sure there was no paper signed cos Nigeria do a lot of Gentleman agreement . . .
