This is one of the reasons guys don't get married on time.

D brides family decides n foots d bill of what to wear.
Evn d food to be consumed on d traditoanl wedding should be provided by d brides side. It is sheer magnamity, and being considerate dt makes d groom 'support' the food budget, esp as dey wud come wt oda guests.
D cost of Traditional rites wud keep increasing because men continue to pay.
Even if u can afford to, it is not encouraged........ think of odas who cant.
By d time ladies r left for deir fathers n bros to marry, such families wud learn tomdo d needful.

Dear nairalanders. I 've got this friend who is planning for his wedding scheduled to hold in 2 months. From all indication it looks like he is the only one responsible for all the finance. Now he suddenly received another message from his wife to be that her family says in their place, the prospective groom is responsible for all her family attire for the wedding. Just want to ask. Is it right?


Go and marry from your place. No be fight or force. If u are not part of that culture and u dont like it move on.

I am sure the father of the bride did same wen he was marrying her mum.

They wont change their culture to suit u.

Ur complain is cultural, but u must understand that in their culture giving u their daughter is a taboo.

If they can make amends, then so can u.

Is she from Imo State?

The wise ones drive through Imo State, to other States to get married. If you dare stop your car in Imo State for marriage, you are on your own.
That's a lie pls.

The papa no send her to university for one idiot to transfer her wealth of knowledge to their community.

They did not raise her, clothe her, feed her, love her and spend 4 her with u in mind. They had a boy from their place in mind who will honour the rite of marriage with joy.

What backwater tribe would dare suggest a shameless thing like this to a suitor? Has the bride's family no dignity? A young man came to marry a wife not become the breadwinner of your family.

Get her pregnant, and they will beg you to Atleast pay the bride price first.

You know this how? Dem say dem say! angry op didn't mention tribe but you just drove this topic to the tribal bigots table and you even have the nerve to mention IMO state? Men have been marrying from that state how many have told you he paid for the brides family attire? Say what you know mister cos you will account for every idle word and false witness you bare on judgment day.

Proudly #nwaimo #asambano tongue

At topic its not right! And any lady that tells you to foot her familys asoebi doesn't love you. Even if you have all the money in the world DONT do it.

Its not by force to marry an Igbo girl! They complain yet still won't leave the prettys alone.

Dude, people make all those expenses and the woman still leave them.


It is more of a test that u are financially capable to cater for a family.


It has always been like that and nothing new.

I don't know how a woman can join her family to extort money from her future husband in the name of list. Shebi you will go and face the gbese when you enter the marriage. One guy bought every single thing on the list and told the wife on the wedding night that she's on her own henceforth, he has finished spending all the money he will spend on her. baddo! cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

Oh o... If thats is the case, why doesn't he just go ahead and sell her na, since it is all abput the money. I will start taking Nigerian Feminists serious when they start fighting our cultural bias on this bride price issues.

Even if I'm financially buoyant, I wouldn't foot the bride's family's bill.

Everyone would have to pay for themselves.

It's issues like this that makes me very proud of my Yoruba roots and heritage !!!

There's absolutely no Yoruba Tribe where the groom is made to foot the cost of the attire of the bride's family !!! Wth!!

What happened to some dignity from the wife's family? Will the groom also bear the cost of the shoes, bags, cap, etc?

#proudlyyoruba
mind you, some Yorubas do it too. they wl stylishly send their daughter, tell your husband if he can help us with this or that.... and I'm Yoruba o

Ok, look at that, it is the Bride family dat carry all the marriage expenses in this culture while a grown ass groom sit and wait to be served everything.

No wonder after 3 months u here he is remarrying. He did not spend a penny for his wedding, it is her and her family loss.
