What Is The Right Way To Ask Parents For Permission To Marry Their Daughter? by Bennga: 7:08pm On Jul 07, 2023
Hi Nairalanders, while there are some wedding traditions that go in and out of style, there’s one that never will: Asking your future wife’s parents for their blessing.

I want to meet my girlfriend’s parents before proposing to her. She is of of the opinion that I should go and meet the marriage committee of their church, because her Father is a pastor and she is a Usher. You all know Deeper life things na..
My plan is to meet the parents and let them know my plans for my girlfriend, rather than going through their Church marriage committee.
While reaching out to them, Please, what is the ideal gift to go with?

If you have parents go through them or with them or go with some elders.
It's disrespectful to go ask for a girl's hand in marriage by yourself as her boyfriend.

Gift kwa, you're not even sure if they'll accept you yet and you're talking about gift. Deeper life people are very religious.

Anyways, you can send her money to cook something special and buy drinks. That in my opinion is ok. You and her parents can discuss over the meal.

Your girl friend?
Talk to her and then talk to her parents since they are Deeper, you can do this via a pastor in the church or Elder in the church.

Hmmmmm, thank you for your response. My parents are late, and I am staying in a different state, hence, the idea of going there alone.

I don't want to go through the Church, they have strict policies.
I would have to pretend as if I haven't approached the girl before, let alone wooing her. The process too complex.

Sorry about your parents, get some elderly relatives to go with you.

You will still wed in that church and pass through their strict policies.

That doesn't stop you from informing her parents your intention it's quite gentlemanly.

Ask for their daughters hand and get ready to face the marriage committee, I wish you the best.

Non alcoholic wine is good to visit them with.

Then your people can come with you later on.

If she is a Deeper Life and the dad is a dedicated member, just know that even after telling the parents, they are going to send you to the marriage committee before you can move further with your intentions.
