Everybody must not marry. I've always said it. Impregnate the lady, it's her parents that will be begging you to come for her by that time they must do your bidding. I'm not married because I'm still in the paper chase.

Lol, I'm not a fan of huge stuff and I think the man that gonna marry me gonna be lucky.

I ain't on facebook,
Ain't on instagram
Ain't on I.G
Only on whatsapp grin I do things my way not cos people expect me to.

On my birthday my guy asked me what I wanted, I said honey cos I wanted to use it for facial treatment , he bought the honey for me and total cost was 3k. That was my first birthday gift since our 6years of dating cheesy I no get time and he kuku know though sometimes e dey pepper me say I no dey trouble am. sad I'm pretty independent, though I don't have money like that sha sad

I don't makeup( though I love lipsticks like crazy!), I don't go out. Expenses are just for body lotions and clothes and I'm good to go .

My marriage day chaiii, people will only see pictures. I only want my engagement party to be big, gonna invite our friends and family, then he pays my bride price which is 120 in my town. grin

After then I would loved to organize a small party at home. Maybe give them money to cook food or buy a full goat and share among themselves so dem no go worry me for night. grin

I have got no worries at all, the person to marry me got no worries too. Na who white and traditional marriage help? My mom's friend that had a whole town for her marriage, she's is in her father's house now instead of her husband's. undecided

Life no get duplicate, do your own style and make people do their own style.

I admire ur style and ur will power. na imitation de kill us

Vry interesting comments both encouraging nd discouraging ones. If u can afford to pay d dowry of ur lady then u ve married her.
Ppl shud stop tinking dat a 4-hour of wedding s marriage. Wedding s a day show-off while marriage s supposed to be a life long of peace nd happiness.
There s no worst or best wedding ever.
If u can afford d flamboyant wedding dats fine nd if ur budget s a low-key wedding go for it.
Neva ever do tins to please d crowd nd displeased/discomfort urself.

April 22 remains a nightmare until when it's over..
My gal is not co-operating with me at all,keep inviting family and friends both offline and online it's like she don't understand that there is marriage after wedding.
She's busy choosing this and that while I m having difficult time sleeping and eating even when the food is served.

Firstly, let me assume that your submission is true.

Secondly I'll also try to believe that you are unable to see the handwriting on the wall which is clear and obvious.

Now gentleman, that April 22 is the day you will officially walk yourself into the trap that awaits you.

I say this for the following reasons:

1. Your woman doesn't care about your finances and thinks it's your cross to carry alone. And that is how you will carry it in the marriage.

2. You support this her mindset, with your actions.

You need to fix this before the marriage, otherwise...

Only God knows why Nigerians love parties especially wedding so much. Personally, it's less than 50k. Just a 20 guest wedding.

Indeed!! Even if just your family alone are the attendees, you'll spend more than that.

My broda I agree with you ooo this is exactly the reason why most families are not moving forward I can't imagine a man getting married to a lady that won't care or bother to support the family that about to start financially and it start right from the wedding planing if she's not talking about contributing financially to the wedding then automatically she won't contribute to the marriage. In this era and century financial aspect must be shared among couples if not equal atleast the wife also should foot some bills not everything to the man or the man will not move forward in life especially if he's on a small scale income.

As a lady, My culture demands I provide some of the things I will need including Television, Gas Cooker, Bed and wardrobe refrigerator and so on... My dad ended up spending about 1.5 million
You must be from Langtang or somewhere around that place in Plateau State. Good culture they've got as regards marriage.

na wah, dunno why people equate lavish wedding to good marriage, doesnt work like that. Anyway during my own, very very long ago, my "inlaws" saw the look on my face, and didnt try any bs, I seriously worked in my bugbet, capacity, and my own pace. wont borrow to impress anybody. Any the woman was pregnant then, e for be bad market for them.
