500K for wedding?
My brother wise up especially if you're not rich and comfortable!

You are confused bro, 500k is too much self, budget 100k for your wedding and thank me later

It's simple. Do traditional by 7am in the morning, go to church by 10am. After church service, serve food in the church. Wedding don finish oo. Carry your wife go house. Chikena.

Good afternoon my amiable family people. I am planning a wedding with my fiancée my budget is 500K. Will it be enough for food and drinks. People coming from my side aren’t that much.

Oga do as your power reach.
What u need most is both parents blessing.
Anything other than that is just extra.

It depends on the numbers of wives you want to marry.

CharmingJob:
500k is much self.

Go to Island or send someone.

Bride's outfit plus shoes 20k
Your own outfit plus shoe 15k
DJ 5k
MC you suppose get friend wey fit help you na or highest 5k
Rings 10k
Cake 11k
Photography 15k
Chairs and all 15k
Foods 50k


You will still have plenty change left.

Kukuma say make he bring him home theatre from house.

GboyegaD:
It should be. Just manage the guest properly and use maybe her parent's house for everything.

For wedding hall or the food or the event planner?
Anyway there is always a cheaper alternative

My brother as a nigeria man that i am , i think traditional marriage is ok , instead of spending too much money for wedding . Don't forget that u will pay house rent after wedding.

If you're concerned about the bolded, 500k isnt enough because a high class wedding must have reception and 500k might not even be enough for reception expenses.

Plan your wedding according to your financial capability or as you so desire, not all low weddings are due to lack of money.

Good luck.

If you’re in Lagos, you can get ring at Lagos Island for 1k-2k.

When the Lord blesses you later, you may wish to buy a more expensive one.

Also, have it at the back your mind that WEDDING is the joining of both you with your parents consent. Once this is done, every other thing na FEFERITY� and is not compulsory. So, be wise. Cut your clothe according to your cloth.

Also, remember that if you feed the whole city people will still complain, so do your best and leave the rest.

God bless

It depends the number of people you are inviting to wedding

That's helpful.. Her family won't depend on your finance to make some arrangements, so as to lift the burden off your shoulder. It's mostly like that in Yoruba land, and that's the beauty of the culture.

So, 500k budget would only focus on your relatives and peers to your satisfaction.. No worries brother.

Congrats in advance!

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr
I was about to conclude by telling you yes
That the money will be enough

Untill i read the part of your story that states
She is yoruba

Lo! Only ashoke will gulp all the money sef

You had lockdown period as an oppurtunity that you would have spent lesser. Well cut your cloth according to how it fits you. 500k is good for me.

Marry within your reach. After the wedding, na you and the lady go suffer alone. Infact the lady can even abandon you after marriage if you are not doing well. I wish I knew these before now, if she is insisting on a big marriage, guy dump her

so you wanna make use of the covid-19 loan given to you by fg to do your wedding" okwa ya




Love Amaka

In this COVID?

.....well,in my tribe highest bride price is around 16k so i guess it depends on who and where you may be marrying.

yes it will... .... ...and it can as well be able to take you out off this robbed nation for a better life in Tokyo.

Even N100k or less can do it for you without cutting the picture of a pauper. It all depends on who you are and what you want. Remember, N100 million is shikini money for some people, and if you imitate them or embark on a stupid 'I-want-to-make-a-point' journey, 'o te tan, mo so fun e' (it's gonna be a complete self-defeat, I tell you).

sawdi:
You fckup

How pls?

Bro it will be enough. But why you choose Yoruba girl my brother?

Thank God you even have 500k bro

In this pandemic period, N500k is sufficient for a moderate wedding.

Husband/Wife's dresses
21 days settlement at Local Govt.
Photographs and Cake
Menu for few families and friends.

Olunmercy56:
As for me, it's even too much

I like ladies like you

Hmmmm

Guy hurry up and do your wedding before Corona virus end, tell your friends that do to social distancing protocol only 20 guests can be accommodated during the Church or Mosque service. Give them a link on Zoom to follow and watch from anywhere. I have seen many friends and colleagues do it like this including those who have us IV cards and lockdown caught up with them.
