If he's financially buoyant, cool.. If not, let the bride's people cut their coats according to their sizes.

It all boils down to education and enlightenment. In this day and age,many enlightened ppl do not even demand for any other tthing except brideprice and even when they do they usually consider the man's financial capacity. Happened during my big sis wedding and yes,proudly Mbaise! cool

Most parents who are uneducated and greedy use brideprice to extort money from prospective son-in-laws. OP tell your friend to bow out,if he cant meet up to their demands,marriage no be force! undecided

No it is wrong.

Is she from Imo State?

The wise ones drive through Imo State, to other States to get married. If you dare stop your car in Imo State for marriage, you are on your own.

Meaning what? Please stop generalising over a few perhaps incidence that might have occurred.

Dear nairalanders. I 've got this friend who is planning for his wedding scheduled to hold in 2 months. From all indication it looks like he is the only one responsible for all the finance. Now he suddenly received another message from his wife to be that her family says in their place, the prospective groom is responsible for all her family attire for the wedding. Just want to ask. Is it right?

op, my own si this, if you buy it or make anybody turn you to slave all in the name of marrying their daughter then you be certified mumu

Dude, people make all those expenses and the woman still leave them.

It is more of a test that u are financially capable to cater for a family.

It has always been like that and nothing new.

which family? You mean the bride's family?

The groom should tell them to cancel all wedding arrangements if they can't find clothes to attend the wedding. That is exactly what I would do!

Lolz. That would surely work. you'd be amazed at how quickly clothes appear from thin air. Some people can be mean, in these harsh times they don't think of how their daughter and her husband need help to cope with the financial problems especially at the first stage. Instead of thinking of how to ease their burden, they want to bury the man with more financial obligations.

It all depends on the man, if he is willing to buy for all family members, like me, my hubby bought for my parents alone. The wife should still reason with him in this crucial times.

Bride's family attire undecided

?

Maka gini? Is the situation that bad?

If they can't afford 'their own' family attire, any other dress can go. BTW, it's just a ceremony. The groom already has enough stress to include the bride's family attire.

BTW, in my place, the bride's family play 40-45% role to the success of the wedding, save the groom isn't buoyant..

**shrugs** My aunt's wedding was solely handled by her family with 20% or less from the man..

The same thing happen to me when i married my wife now ex from ogoja, the family did not foot anything not even cooking a common pot of rice, i footed the wedding all alone. no support from the wife family or even my wife. yoruba are better they will even return the bride price money to you. The price na another thing.

A friend from imo that i met during service told me that in their village,the groom has to build a house for the bride's family b4 u can marry their daughter.Imagine!!

THIS DIFFERS FROM FAMILY TO FAMILY OOOOOO
AND FROM VILLAGE TO VILLAGE OOOOOO

For instance, you can't compare Ideato's list to Mbaise's list and they are both within Imo state, same with family.

I have a close friend from Akatta, Imo state, where the groom was mocking her (the bride), saying they are cheap and nothing is in their list sef.

Nobody is buying attire for anyone for traditional wedding, meanwhile for the white wedding, his mum told the bride's mum not to bother about attire that she (groom's mum) wants them to wear the same thing which they (groom's family) will take care of after both of them decides on colour. NOBODY FORCED THEM OOO.

So please it completely differs.

I don't know how a woman can join her family to extort money from her future husband in the name of list. Shebi you will go and face the gbese when you enter the marriage. One guy bought every single thing on the list and told the wife on the wedding night that she's on her own henceforth, he has finished spending all the money he will spend on her. baddo!

Some families are something else, the groom is someone 's son too.
