Please help me fellow nairalanders
I'm in a confused state of mind as I type this,I and my fiancee are planning to get married soon this year God willing,I'm presently out of the country,while my wife to be is in Nigeria,we really don't wanna exceed 200invitees in attendance on our wedding day,but here are some limitations to this:

1. My wife to be is a worker in a big church,where she's an active one
2. Her family members might not support this,as they tend to love parties from their end
3. I'm planning on taking her along with me to the country where I'm based presently,so as to settle down there,all these will gulp cash,and we are trying to be very conservative with our spendings as well



Please we need your matured advice as on how to go about this,our plans include church wedding,introduction,engagement and reception in a day...Thank you

don't try the bolded. Thank or curse me later in future.


You already know Nigeria party na especially if they know say the husband no base Nigeria. I doubt your 200 won't turn to 500 (your wife church members alone gan)

The only option is to rent a good hall with security and it will be only with IV pass.

herboshedhe:

I reason with your point,but what do you suggest to them?

Cos I've got no idea on what to advise,mere looking@the members of the wife's church

agarawu23:
it will be difficult for the op to archive that plan especially if the they are Yoruba's and you know how we Yoruba's do party.

It will look somehow if the wife don't invite her church members but there is a way to go about it.

1. Choose a far venue, probably another state.

2. Use a nice hall with full security (show your iv before u enter)

3. Do the wedding low key without inviting much people and budget another spending for entertainment the next Sunday for Thanksgiving and use the opportunity to satisfy your wife church members

4. Follow the holy book and tie the knot with just u, pastor and two witness

Cutehector:
Seems she may be frm yoruba

Urm wedding isn't smth u"d Wana restrict guests to a certain number, cuz it's her day as well, not urs only. The money dat u"d want to use to take her along with u abroad which u complained will cost a lot of money will be so much ok to have a moderate wedding here in Nigeria and change sef will remain..


So dnt be pennywise and pound foolish at d same time. U hav to talk to u wife abt it, she has to convince her family members especially her parents she doesn't want a huge wedding.

If not, mehn, I really dnt see ur wish being granted.

agarawu23:
is there anything like church or mosque wedding? Capital NO if we follow the Bible and Quran.

All we just do is to waste cash and let people talk about how expensive our wedding was but the most important thing is to marry legally with with ness and clergyman that will join both of you together. The rest na 'jara"
