Hi, I'm not the host, @Forfun is.

yomibabe:
pls let's chat on 09020209929

Hi.my number is on my signature

edwife:
For the chicken grill, why don't you make it fun for the ladies.You and your friend can grill the chicken-say like a home barbecue.
You only need a grill and the rest is up to you and the boys.Y'all be serving the ladies.

You buy 4-5 chickens (frozen) and cut them into part-marinade with (a bit of garlic,chilli,salt,ginger,thyme,tomato paste and mustard).
In this case,you will still keep the fish barbecue hot on the grill.If you have a fryer,you can make potato chips and plantain.
Ketchup and mayonnaise on the table.

I quite understand that this could be a bit of a work for Naija guys but it's very unique and fun too.Y'all can be drinking beers around the grill while catching up.The ladies can just relax. Less expensive too.

I have loads of idea for parties like this,salads and some sandwiches- you good to go!

I'd buy into this idea, if it was for a fun, relaxing day out with a couple of friends, 10 at most. But when you have a gathering of 50, with kids involved, you need to be able to whip up the chops as fast as possible too. You are also assuming the op has the time and patience.

I love the idea but it's not practical for nigerian parties.

ForFun:

Fish barbecue √ 50k local vendor.Happiness
DJ/ home theatre system √ free. Me or a friend
Ice creams for kids √ free. friend
Wines√ 10k. Shoprite
Chicken Grills. 20k No vendor yet.
Small chops Yomibabe or 12 Baskets ..? How much?
Gizdodo√ 10k?. No vendor yet.
Canopy and chairs √ 10k. Local vendor confirmed
Chapman 60cups √ 24k . No vendor yet
Water for 40 persons . 2k shoprite
Juice/Alcohol for 40 persons 12k shoprite
Cake . Yomibabe . what size? How much?
Donuts etc for 15 kids. 5k

Total so far 153k

Cool

Is yomibabe based in Abuja? I love the simplicity of the 2nd cake, the blush and brown color one

ForFun:
Do I need birthday cake

She will be 36

Are you kidding?

What's a birthday without a cake?

ForFun:
Ok. I will look out for gizdodo today. Can I just do smll chops for the kids?

Sorry, it'll will be a waste for kids, they'll just have the puffpuff and mosa and throw away the rest. You can buy donuts at any fast food and just serve With the icecream, popcorn comes prepacked now, so easy

wroskian:
I can hook you up wf a competent event planner in Abuja if you don't mind, just PM me.

No vex, he doesn't need a planner, he just needs a vendor or 2. His budget or guest number doesn't need it.

ForFun:
The fish barbecue is a fantastic idea. Abeg what is gizdodo? Chapman or smoothie is not bad too but will 200k cover it?

We have ice cream maker so we can make for the kids...what else for kids?

How do I begin to describe Gizdodo? spicy dodo and gizzard. It's better you try it, don't know which Abuja outlet sells, maybe Grills in and Out in Wuse? It's always a hit at my parties.

The kids are easy to please, they could have waffles, popcorn, donuts and hotdog. A cup of Chapman is 350 naira or less, depending on your vendor. 100 cups is 35k, you are still covered. It all depends on the number of people you invite.

ForFun:
Sassygal if u in Abuja YES

#sigh I'm in Lagos

Hi Forfun, is she aware of the party or is it a surprise?

Since its a small party, major things to consider - small chops/finger food, drinks, canopy, chairs and music.

Canopy - a 10 ft by 20ft will do just fine. Shouldn't cost more than 5k to rent.

Chairs - 5 dozen at 500 naira =2500

Tables - 4 @ 500naira = 2000
Music - a dj, depending on your area- 10-25k

Food - since you want something different, you can have the regular naija small chops menu, also get some to grill chicken or fish barbecue with chips, asun or Gizdodo, hotdogs and waffles are not regular, for the kids, donuts, icecream will keep them happy. This you can get for 120-150k

Drinks - Get Chapman or smoothies, rather than the regular soft drinks and alcohol

P's. I hope I get invited!

To think that at 6mill per hour, Bristoe will have well maintained fleet.

Good morning Nairalanders,

Mr. John I'm waiting

I will submit the bid on your behalf!

Please there is no fee for bidding.

Please I beg, only serious buyers should call - that is those ready to pick up a car within the next 20 days. For the person that called saying I am a scammer for trying to sell 2013 cars at these prices- they are not my cars, I didn't fix the prices, these are the prices the company listed inhouse. It will cost you nothing to come and inspect.

The prices are the minimum bidding price and they cannot go lower than that. If you place a bid and win but do not remit payments within 5 days, the bid goes to the next highest bidder on the 6th day.

ESHOIZA:
ℓ̊ need a place ℓ̊ can get crystal centre pieces to buy at affordable price in Lagos

Find your way to Tom Jones section of idumota, ask for the road to dosumu, just before u turn into dosumu, several shops have them

Can2012:
Looks like we'd go the whole 9 yards on the agbada then. I don't like this "gbariye". Looks like hunter's outfit oh

Thanks dear

Lol! U welcome

Can2012:
Thanks so much Sassygal.
What about for hubby? Would it look strange for him not to wear agbada?
Do we have to wear same lace fabric?

I'm not a very traditional person and I consider myself prudent so really don't wanna shell out big bucks for aso oke. At the same time, wanna look stunning.

Uhm, yes it will be strange for him not to wear agbada and those alagas will fine him He could wear a gbariye though. Pictures attached. No you don't have to wear the same lace. Men wear polish lace often times.

Can2012:
Helloooooo my elders, e ku ikale o. Wedding coming up mid November and nothing has been sorted out yet. Below are my questions make una biko, abeg, ejo, please chip in anywhere you can. Thank you.

1. Yoruba couple: is there a way of doing away with the outrageous aso-oke of 100k upwards that will probably never be worn again?

2. It's just the traditional wedding and reception. I want white predominantly and I want it classy.
Bride in all white native, teal beads, shoes and purse. Groom in white outfit and teal cap.
Guests in teal and white.
Decor white and teal with touches of green on centre pieces.
Seems to me like everything might be too matchy matchy and bride and groom would look too much like the guests (I don't mind though) Guess this is where the aso oke comes in. Does anyone have any suggestions per colour adjustments or additions?


3. Rocktation, mentioned Jahlobia gardens to someone else earlier (thanks for this) does any one else know any other sensibly priced outdoor venues? I'd like the green background of the gardens to complement the white and teal outfit/decor.

4. Although it's a traditional wedding, would it make sense to have a first dance and dance to John Legend's "all of me"?

Thanks guys
With regards, Currently Flustered Human

Hi,

To answer your questions - you can get a cheaper alternative to the asooke that will still appear traditional - Get a lovely lace material which you could make iron and buba with or skirt and blouse and then get asooke for gele. Depending on your taste and budget - you can get a good outfit for less than 50k

2) matchy matchy isn't a bad idea, simply alternate the colors- if your guests use Teal outfits and white gele, you should use white on Teal gele.

3) which area is your wedding - will help narrow down outdoor venue
I
4) it's your wedding day, you can Dance to whatever tune you want to as long as you are happy , no one should tell u otherwise!

Cheers

enatasha:
3weeks to my wedding & my inlaws changed my wedding colors from purple & yellow to royal blue & yellow. Now I'm at a fix. I bought purple gowns for my bridesmaids & my sisters too have bought purple lace for their asoebi. What do I do now? I'm sad cos they've started sending the invitations & its written royal blue and yellow. Pls advise if there's a way out for me.

Is this your wedding or their wedding? Luckily you can combine all three.

Simply use a Peacock theme or stick to purple and royal blue with a touch of yellow. Or purple and yellow with a hint of blue.

A good decorator will know how to combine all three tastefully

Chartey:
You could have advised her without advertising yourself as a bigger competitor.
I think my previous comment was insulting, I'm sorry.

Do you honestly believe a 'competitor' would advise an opponent? Whatever you believed is in your head alone! The sky is big enough for every bird to fly, besides she may not even be in my vicinity for me to want to compete with and I asked those questions because they are pertinent!

Where in the initial post did the op prove that she was capable of handling events, no qualities listed, no experience stated or you expect people to patronize based on sentiments?

Please be careful of insinuating rubbish

Chartey:
And you had to say all these on her thread? Very sensitive of you.

And you are?

jerem:
