Oga, Photography and ring is very important o. If you wan cut cost tell the photographer to snap 20-50 correct picx based on your budget then get a nice ring too....Cheers

Yes, I'm getting a very good ring already.
The photography is what I have no idea of.
We want to take prewedding shoots also.
By the way, location is Lagos FESTAC Axis
Thanks Y'all

UDUJ:


Please do. And don't listen to people saying you can't have your wedding with only 40 guests, that's bollocks because you can. This is the time to be prudent in your spending because these guys will not come to your aid when you get neck deep in debts after your wedding due to frivolous spending.

Happy married life in advance

Well, they all can contribute. Thing is, we're set on number of guests already even before this COVID-19 thingy

Londonpraise:
It's possible...I did same not even in Corona period...
Just had to spend for food,our clothing, photography and video.
And everything went well

Make person come tell me say I never marry

You are wise...

Congratulations bro. As long as ur wife is onboard with u. But no photography and ring? Na phone u wan use snap wedding pix? But like I said, if ur wife dey onboard with ur plans, then it's ok. God bless your union.

You will never regret u did. I did mine with 20 guest.

Hi, Nairalanders.
So, as the topic says.
I'm getting married in September. Yippe!
We're relatively still young and up and coming.
We've agreed on having only the traditional wedding for now and then going to court later.
Now, we're planning the wedding and I need input from you guys. Informed contributions please.
Things we're not paying for includes
Hall... (we're using parents compound)
Makeup
Rings
Photography

Any other I put and price suggestions please?

Donpata, Offpoint...

Your opinion is highly needed

ArcSEMPECJ:
Nice move and determination O.P......but I must ask if you should also involve your wife in the plan pls,.....
E get why
Kudos to you....
Every other thing falls into the kind of wedding / trade u two agreed on

We're definitely in on the plan together.
We are trying to determine colors.
She's indifferent about colours but I'm particular.
Any ideas on good colours for both parents and guests?

Onarabu:



Congratulations! Why do you want to shift the registry aspect till later? Why don't you factor everything in and rest your mind at once?

Cos of work... Will be quite busy

Pabloosas:
You can book me for your photography/videography. I'm not going to charge you much.

Are you for real?

Vibra:

chukwuibuipob:
strictly by invitation..if he get money make he hire bouncers/SARS.thevrest nah tori

Cant work in the village. Excludiing extended family, kilts and kin etc, would ammount to creating unnecessary enemity. Bouncers in a traditional wedding is for security purposes.

merieam16:

alaye talk to your woman and plan with her, forget all this rushing online to seek advise in regards to marriage preparation, do it within your capacity

Congratulations op. Glad to see people giving advice and not trolling.
But why are you postponing the court wedding? That is essentially what makes you two a couple (by law).

hmmmm

There's this very good Fashion Designer at Surulere and she's also affordable but her sewing is pretty neat and beautiful.
Also there's a Photographer that's also got dope shot's, also affordable.
I think you're covered and you won't even have to go too far,Festac is close to Surulere,all these kind of thing is her specialty,if you're interested sha,I can send you her details, she also do bridal makeups, lorokansha she cover's both the Bride and the Groom
She is very very good,really good

40 is already a crowd . I'll advise you cut it down to just 15.

Then, if its in my place, everything in the list is what will be used to cater for the occasion, so, no extra spending.

That's all!

oluwafreshkid:


Thank for your input.
This is very insightful. I think I'll go with your idea of take away food pack.
Sincerely, if I should adjust my budget, it'll be for 50 guests max.
I really appreciate your idea of the take away.

May God bless your union. You're starting well by cutting your coat according to your cloth.

You've obviously succeeded in conquering greed or the quest to compare yourself to others and getting an understanding partner. Keep it up

dangermouse:
Hosting only 40 guests in a traditional wedding is not tenable, unless done in the city, even at that u still have to make provision for 60 guests or more.

Na your wedding?
20people each from each side is attainable. This na traditional wedding and can be done in the parlour or in a compound. Once the number is complete you lock the gate anybody wey climb fence break leg, that is his/her family problem.

oluwafreshkid:
My major concern is photography and decoration. I want want to look at the picture years later and feel pleased.
How much does it cost for traditional decoration?
Not expensive but standard. Mustn't be over the top luxurious

Oga just do with whatever your capacity can cover.
