8 Struggles Every Guest At A Nigerian Wedding Party Can Relate To by Nobody: 12:17pm On Sep 03, 2016
Today is another Saturday and I'm very sure a lot of wedding parties are currently going down in Nigeria

As such, I've compiled a list of every struggle faced by guests at Nigerian weddings

1. Very expensive asoebi :
Somebody will just wake up and decide to sell asoebi for over N50,000 and if you decide not to buy, you become a bad friend. Most of the time, the ushers will just keep attending to only those wearing asoebi but who cares? If I spend that exorbitant amount to buy asoebi, how much will I spend for my wedding gown when I’m getting married? This economy is too harsh to be investing that kind of money on asoebi.

2. The reception venue is far from the church:
Some people will have the church wedding at Jerusalem and the reception will be at far away Jericho. This is one of the reasons people don’t bother attending church weddings. It’s way more convenient to head directly to the reception venue. If you’re not mobile, you’ll now start looking for who will give you a lift.

3. Not enough seats:

So, after plenty stress, you finally get to the reception venue and the whole place is filled up. You can’t find anywhere to sit down and your 6 inch high heeled shoes are already beginning to act up. You will start wishing you had come earlier. Don’t blame some people who want to be at the reception venue before everyone else. It’s not a funny experience when you can’t find a place to sit. You end up missing out on everything.

4. There’s seat but its reserved:

You find some empty seats and tables in the hall but they say it’s reserved for some special people. Imagine after thinking you’ve found the perfect place to sit, someone comes and tells you to get up because its reserved and you can’t sit there.

5. Food runs out:

If you love yourself, don’t leave your house with an empty stomach, expecting to get fed at the wedding reception because you’ll be disappointed. Most of the time, food runs out and many wedding guest end up not eating. Imagine seeing the mouth-watering dishes and watching others eat while nothing gets to you. It’s not something you want to experience.

6. There’s food but it’s tasteless :

The food finally arrives but you can’t eat because it’s tasteless. Some caterers can just decide to spoil your day for you with their food. The food at least have taste least because tasteless food is just as bad as no food.

Re: 8 Struggles Every Guest At A Nigerian Wedding Party Can Relate To by Nobody: 12:45pm On Sep 03, 2016
7. You’re thirsty but the ushers are hoarding the drinks:

You’ll be begging for N50 bottled water and they will be acting like you’re begging them for an iPhone. It’s just water, don’t know if they want to carry it to heaven.

8. Souvenir wahala :
After all the troubles you went through to get to the reception venue with your expensive asoebi, somebody will now be sharing plastic hand fan or bowl souvenir. Haba! Why plastic? The souvenir doesn’t have to be expensive. There other things you can give to people that will be useful and they will appreciate. Sometimes, only certain people get the “special” souvenirs and you’re just sitting and wondering why it’s passing you by.

Both church and reception, I don't attend any. I go to visit the couple at home after the wedding and give them my gift. That time they will appreciate it more cos they are broke by then.
