charminme:

With guest of 150 in number,
and a white wedding not just traditional
it is not possible, except,
u will use ur compound for the reception,
ur mom as the caterer,
no alcohol and no juice but more of pure water and zobo
and may be ur uncle is the owner of the rental shop

So go for a low key wedding and i guess u will be fine grin

LOL! grin grin grin

most times its the expectation of the brides family that brings about all this expenses.
they either want a glamourous wedding that friends wud talk about,
or are inviting the wholeworld because them daughter wan marry.

I am sure it is possible, reduce the number of guest and make it happen on weekdays.
Re: Can One Plan A White Wedding With 450k? by benlay(m): 2:21pm On May 07, 2009
if u are not going for a traditional wedding, u might manage it cos only native wears alone cost me over #150,000
if u go for a small ring too, u might be there and chinese suits u could manage it. U might have to go for an open compound now but it's raining season now ,, so think twice on that if the issue of location is addressed then u are home & dry.

Yet the afurakan wonders why they poor.

The question ought to be: why spend all that money on the legitimization of a foreign practice? Why not give that dough to the disabled or the orphanage or the lonely widows? in doing so you develop communal network. ya digg.

The traditional marraige is the one that's accepted by our CHI and ancestors whom sustain us. White/church weddings are done in the name of false entities like your jesus and jehova and el shadie and so on. No be say una even dey christ-like. hypocrites.

The disillusionment of modern values. Wants are confused with needs and material aggrandizement taken as survival.

Don't occupy your minds with the excesses of the essencesses of irrelevancies. . . hahaha see grama.

Lions ought to act like lions and hyenas, hyenas.

Dead serious even when smiling

Bros, forget all those sharp month NL. With 450k you can have a moderate(and nice) wedding. Careful planning is what you need and look out for cost cutting means:

*Friends and family can assist in getting discounts for rentals - including venue, you can even use the church premises.
*up and coming cafeterers can give you a big discount. Forget the big names, most time their food taste like ,

Most of those planners are sounding like naija contractors.

HAPPY MARRIED LIFE IN ADVANCE.

i av been to a weeding in which the groom didnt spend up to dat, and d reception was a success,

u can cut down the guest to 90 people, to cut cost.

dont include alcohol cos it will increase ur cost,

stick to sot drinks and non-alcoholic wines, anyone wey won drink juice go go buy am for him/herself,

successful marriages are not determined by large receptions,

Let make this very easy for:
FOOD is the koko in any event, if u like rent the finest hall way they town with out food u would hear the gist even years wen u are long goon.
so how do we tackel food, if u are estimating 150 people + mo gbo mo ya like 200 = 350 people.
Fast food lunch is like  650*350 people = 227500. and if you decide to cut futher cost, i know some one who would charge like #200,000 and still get u a world class food service.
Drinks : soft drinks woulod give u 50*350 = #17500.00 some people no go drink, some go drink pass 2 bottle.
then just buy like 10 bottle of wine 10*600 = 6000 and few malta say 72*80 = 5,760.00
and comot #5000 for few chop chop, chichi, donut, chips and grandnut.
total on feeding =255760
dats for feeding now to clothes Bride and groom alone = you go see better suit for 20k and ur wife suppose borrow from frnd or mama, and if she no wan borrow then rent for 10K or better still buy at 35k
Hall use a school building with large field at worst you go pay 20k
Music i know D.J way go charge 15k
everyone esle should source for their wears, but give cheap specification like grroms men should wear blue or pink shirt on black suit while the brida train should pick cheap material and use their money to buy (infact ur piority is ur own cloth and ur bride forget others they go suring get there's just promise them an eveining together including the organizers committe.)
so far you have spent = 345760.00
remaining =104,240.00
that should pay canope and chair and others.  find my number and call if u want more info.
