The wedding in discussion was paid for completely by the groom and not his family yet his mother made sure they spoilt his happiest day in life .

Didn't she realise that she never liked the girl before, good enough to shag, not good enough to marry, some parents sha undecided

One of the rare occasion I might have to disown my mum if that happened to me and i would make sure I still attend that same church angry At least it would be the same pastor that would come and beg me to speak to my mum againand i would still have my husband cheesy

Heaven helps that church that don't reconcile us, I will make sure the whole word knows they only preach forgiveness, and don't practise it cheesy

which one is marriage course?

A certification you need to get before getting married in the church. It's a 3 credit class and can be very tedious. Guys rarely pass it with good grades.

I still say the man is not man enough.Is that the only church around?
Maybe after he marries,he'll first ring up his mama for permission before consummating the marriage

She did all she could to stop her son from marrying the girl but when she failed, she threatened to stop the wedding and succeeded even though the grooms family are not members of Christ Embassy. How the church honored their request beats me. Shouldn't the church be sued by the bride?

Some Naija parents are cruel, they would not even hide their dislike for you and would make snide remarks when you are around angry

A friend of mine dating this Delta guy for 3 years, received a call from the dude's mum out of the blue to tell her that as the son was the head of the household, they had chosen a wife for him from the village, she has not recovered to date embarassed

I heard that catholic, anglican and RCCG do that too. They can cancel or suspend your wedding at the request of either parent anytime.

The get belle system is no more attractive nowadays because they can still leave you dry after getting knocked up. Too risky, no wedding band, no belle.

You can't demand for your tithes back because they've been transfered into the BanC of Heaven, Swiss Branch unless you want to sue God for a refund.

Is that the only church that they do weddings
Re: Should Parents/pastors Be Allowed To Cancel A Wedding? by AloyEmeka9: 10:27pm On Jan 16, 2009
Yes and yes. Imagine a suave young man that mistakenly fell in love with Tpia, won't you wish his parents would have the authority to stop the wedding before he signs his death warrant?. Especially if the boy is igbo.
