Yes, if you do court wedding with very few guests and the Bride's family don't demand much in terms of bride price, items to buy and a big traditional ceremony.

Why wedding?

If you have completed your village traditional requirements, then you are married. You do not need a Jesus to bind you. Your village rights supersedes any foreign religions. If there is need for it, you can proceed with marriage registry, otherwise you are cool.

Save the 1.5m for pampers and children medical care.

Point of correction, Christianity isn't a foreign religion. And how does it inflate his wedding budget? Last time I checked, traditional and white wedding can be done on the same day. So, what are you talking about?

Do traditional wedding, call pastor to bless you there and sign marriage certificate in his church the next day

Na people wey don marry know say all these wedding things aren't necessary. for the unmarried it is a do or die affair

plan your introduction and traditional marriage with N500k and save the rest to start life

Christian and Islamic weddings are not necessary.

Oil dey ya head.
I did my wedding on the lowest key.
I did registry like 2 months before the wedding.
Then did traditional in the morning, from there we went to church.
The same church hall was quickly converted to a reception venue after the service.

I didn't have to pay for Chair , table
& canopy rentals.
I didn't have to pay for hall decorations.
Neither do I have to pay for hall or field.
My home boy, brought his band to play music for me.
I only gave them transport fare.

From there I carry madam go honey moon for the church hotel/lodge accommodation on the camp ground. Very cheap. Lol

One of my friends who heard I got married called me to ask how much my salary was, and if I was working in a bank. Lol.
So I need to earn big before getting married abi. Dey play.

There is a guy I know, on his wedding day he invited only 10 people each from both families. Hosted them at a fast food joint. He told the fast food to arrange food & drink worth 1k for each person. This was about 15 years ago sha.
Guy was struggling that time.


Just like you said, this life no hard at all.
Na we dey make am hard.

The hard economy is not an excuse for a flamboyant ceremony.
Spend as you so wish and capable of.
Wedding na one day.
Marriage continues till death does you part.

Don't spend based on people's expectation of you or in order to make your occasion the talk of the town. It counts for nothing actually.

If you can make it to Las Vegas without sending money. Chapel weddings in any of the hotels on the Las Vegas Strip cost $350. But if you prefer a drive-through wedding that costs $95. Both forms are perfectly legal and valid in all the states and they all come with a marriage certificate.

imperialism has eaten deep into Africans and they are yet to escape from the slavery of centuries ago...

I was going to just read and pass but I had to comment here.

Traditional Wedding or Marriage is the real thing. Before the White man came with his religion to Africa, were your ancestors not getting married? You go school, open books and read history.

What you regard as white wedding is the traditional marriage of the WHITE man. So how can you be doing two Traditional Marriage for one purpose? CHOOSE ONE.

But for the sake of economic reality, you can do BOTH on the same day to save money because I know a lot of you suffer from inferiority complex and if you don't do that white wedding, your body no go rest...

As for me I won't be marrying a woman twice. If you want your pastor or priest to bless our marriage,kindly invite them to traditional marriage ceremony. Am not going to any church for anything. If you no like am disembark from the marriage me. Simple.
Re: Is 1.5million Naira Enough To Do A Low Budget Traditional And Church Wedding? by Aderupoko2: 6:48pm On Feb 09
I did my wedding in 2012. After the traditional wedding on Friday, which I spent about 75k, the next day we went to church. We were three couples joined together that day, I was the only one that the Pastor announced that there was no venue for reception. Prior that wedding day, tge cheapest wedding reception
Venue was 135k, Cake was also expensive. After church service, people presented their gifts and we zoomed off for our honeymoon. I drove my Highlander jeep, by myself.
This life no hard. Heaven will not fall if you cut your coat according to your size.
Today, we are still married with 2 boys and a girl. To God be the glory.
