Court wedding and wedding date should be only between you and your wife to be, is this interference from her students championed by the mother be very careful because she will still control the marriage after wedding

nothing wrong in court marriage broo
Except theirs plan B
It's for good of both of you on the long run
Asking for advice about your private life is risky sometimes because as you get a positive advice the negative also follows
So I will advice think about it deeply and pray about it
Anyone that will suite you is what you should go for but if need be on the case of you both traveling then you still need to do it
Rethink my brother
No one can or should take your decision post in a marriage except you

Family of the bride has the right to pick date... It is you that will negotiate with them the date that will favor you. They are your in-laws ... You don't have say for now...

This thing is not stubborn head something..

Check the profile of those advising u, am sure majority are still single. Whats the difference between a court and church wedding? Its same certificate Federal Govt of Nig) , same conditions of marriage n same divorce process so why are u afraidhuh Abi u sef get plans? If u say shes already pregnant then maybe she cant do church anymore reason why court is a suitable replacement so calm down except you sef never ready to marry

They have every reason to request a court wedding. You want to make her a baby mama or what?

Stories where a woman gets pregnant and moves into a man's house with no official marriage but just inlaws meeting inlaws never favours the woman. What will she do when you say you don't like her again or you complain over every little thing just because you want to marry another woman. You throw her under the bus with no loss on your part.

If that lady is wise, court wedding is a must or she should not even move in with you, the Op at all.
Don't forget we have
+ Customary Marriage
+Islamic Marriage
+Christian/Court marriage

They are all legal,

It's either this guy is wealthy,or they have checked his destiny and they have seen that he will become extremely rich in future.


Yoruba pple they do this thing very well,them go say na to check if they are compatible.

Ps.I am a Yoruba guy.
In other words the guy would not want a lasting marriage unless court injunction binds him to it?
If otherwise why is he jittery about court marriage

Am not marrying her because of pregnancy, she’s 28 and am 30. I got to know the parent’s behavior recently , it’s the bride mother that is insisting on everything,
Then do what you want. If she's insisting on court wedding, you stand your ground. Let her not start detecting what happens in your home

This family are really giving you trouble, even before the actual wedding.
This could be a sign to hold on till your fiancee delivers.

Personally, I don't like seeing young couples suffering due to limited advice from experienced older men(couple)

I disagree with you. It is the bride's family that organises both introduction and wedding. In developed countries the bride's family bear the entire cost. [/b]So, if they now decide on a date, it is for your family to seek for a compromise as it is their right.
[b]
Bro..First it is both families that organise wedding...second we are not like other organised countries...because they do not pay bride price...I do not know where and how you come to the conclusion that only bride family organise wedding.. but dat ur assumption is wrong...

Let her keep her name.
Is she from an influential family?

Story! So, you are blind to all what the fairer sex have been doing after separation or whatever. Be mindful of the fact that even those guys that were served breakfast thought exacky what you are thinking before it happened to them.[ quote author=EreluRoz post=131743687] Be mindful of the kind of advise you give concerning marital issues. Some people actually want court wedding to make the marriage bond strong as both party will ensure they work together for the progress of the marriage knowing fully well the implication of the court if their marriage is broken.[/quote]

See Parents would always be parent. They feel you are at their mercy because their daughter is pregnant already which is not the dream of any parent. Deep down they are pained she's pregnant out of wedlock. So in you dealings with them be considerate

If you are not comfortable with a court wedding tell them say you no dey do(I personally do not see anything wrong in that anyways). Its a beautiful thing to actually marry the one carrying your seed if you both see a future together also make your Fiance understand that there is no law compelling you to marry(don't be surprise that your Fiance is actually the one putting her people up to that act) her. If sacrifices can't be made and nobody is ready to see things from the other perspective just put a hold on the wedding plans and support her to have you child until when you both can resolve issues...
He's not at their mercy, the reverse is the case because he can choose to walk away and leave the girl with the pregnancy if he do chooses.

The problem with such a family where they compel the man to do their bidding is that they may not stop after the man might have married their daughter. They'll control his life and make him miserable.

He's in a very advantageous position to tell them what he wants and withdraw if they show themselves to be problematic.
A marriage that starts with disagreement and threats may not go well. The red flags are obvious for him to see

Change ownership of all your properties to your mother secretly. then go ahead with the court wedding.

I did court wedding because my family always want to carry property of dead relatives and dictates to the wife of the deceased and children.

No big deal in it. Why are you tensed about it?
Re: My Fiancée's Family Is Insisting On Court Wedding by jeffizy(m): 2:31pm On Aug 29, 2024
I noticed there are a lot of arguments indicating that both the poster and the cheerleaders on front page are lacking the maturity and understanding needed to be in marriage.

First off, if you're not a dubious lover, why are you scared of having a court wedding?

Secondly, you are taking their daughter who you have impregnated already and you still want to pick that date for them to give her out via introduction?

As the lady, she should be scared of these red flags in you.

Thanks for your advice… I can see the red flag as regards controlling me and also taking my stand at the same time am also trying to consider the condition of my Fiance… can you believe they want insist that they will the one to give us the wedding date when we went to for introduction? They got angry when my parent said they will get back to them.
That is your red flag
