elantraceey:Most times the bride price is just a little amount rather it is the rest expenses that take 99% of the total money paid for a girl's hand in marriage |

Firstly She should have a chat with her parents with a view of reducing the list if its exorbitant She can help towards paying for other wedding expenes, but the man should pay for the brideprice and whatever is on the list that they have given him. . . it is also not a crime to not have a posh wedding. People should cut their coat according to their ankara. Whats the point of a posh wedding if you are going to start the marriage with serious financial problems? That alone can cause a lot of unecessary friction. 3 Likes |

the man should pay the bride price and try to get the things on the list. If he can't, he should forgo the issue of the white or church wedding till he can afford it. NB: Wedding is not marriage 2 Likes |

@OP: NO! The husband & family should source for that after re-negotiation of the items. Wife & family can foot bulk of the wedding expenses |

Its a no-no for me. If he can't afford it now, he could pay it bid by bid after negotiations with the brides family. No matter how matured they may think they are, misunderstandings that might warrant them to use it against each other could arise according to@mutter. Let's just leave this culture the way we met it. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I would strongly advise that man to wait till he can afford the bride price. Allowing for her input is a major recipe for disaster, better to be safe than sorry |

this na serious matter but it depends on the couple concerned. if the couple are still operating out of 1900's then its unheard of for the bride to contribute anything to her bride price but if the couples belong to the up and coming computer age, who cares who pays the bride price, so long the both collectively decided on it. and for your information, many brides and their family make make contributions either in cash or kind towards the trad wedding for those who think re-negotiation might solve the problem, think again, the usual answer, is the list was not prepared with you in mind, besides the list belongs to the entire community, not just the bride family my humble advise to all would be groom, try and foot your marriage bill if you can, if you cannt accept help from your wife, after all the 2 becomes one. 1 Like |

My godmother actually helped to do this for her fiancé, because he did not have enough money to afford their traditional marriage ceremony and wedding in catholic church. |
