People really have plenty of time to waste making rules that they cannot enforce. In fact breaking any of those rules does not affect the celebrant or would it stop the wedding from holding? Next wedding please!

Interesting list, bt i still stand that a native attire ie, ankara would do. Gown preferably.

NA BOXER, SINGLET & SLIPPERS SURE PASS

What not to wear = cloth

What to wear = cloth

It's simple, a wedding is a formal occasion n can b tagged a 'black tie' event. Whatever is suitable for a red carpet show will do for a wedding. For the ladies a classy dinner/evening dress that won't show too much skin is perfect but I disagree with the OP on d 'no black' dress ish. For men, u can never go wrong with a dark suit preferably a (tuxedo) white shirt and a black tie is perfect, the suit shld b black,midnight blue or dark grey and make sure u are wearing a polished black shoe n belt. U'll definitely appear very smart.

Probably a pant suit is ok as long as it doesn't look tacky but more classy(i dnt mean too expensive tho). But a dress is more formal for weddings except you dnt feel comfy in dresses or have stuffs to hide!

In Nigeria we buy ASOEBI's for most weddings we are invited to. Infact the asoebi comes with the invitation card so how we go fit wear wrong attire for wedding ? except if tailor disappoint you at the last minute that's when you go enter wardrope begin dey search for flip flops and matching suit

Absolutely on point,gurl u made whole lotta sense,4 ladies,black aint a kul colour 2 b worn buh 4 men,d blend of d colour z kul cos we most tyms hv got blaq suits, d ladies do get d colour of d day as indicated on d IV wrong,most of dem think dt d colours chosen r 4 dem 2 rock it nd @d end of d day,d event becums less colourful...I totally agree wid no white,blaq,flip flops....Trendy natives r kul as well

Lakayana: Are we talking about what not to wear to oyinbo weddings? What's our business with that this is Nairaland and we are Nigerians there so can we discuss what not to wear to 9ja parties please?

soooo not true. This rules apply 2 Nigerians as well. An example of No 10 is uche jumbo who wore stiletto 2 a weddin nd ended up walkin lyk sm1 who was goin crippled!

Cos d terrain of d venue was very Rocky

This post is mostly for the foreigners but nigerian ladies would do well to read some of the points like don't wear shorts or slutty dresses to the wedding.and as for the part about calling the bride to find out the colour of the dress,e be like say u no know naija where ppl attend weddings without knowing any of the parties involved. I rest my case
