For me to agree to marry him, it means he has the qualities i want in my future partner. Marriage is a give and take thing. I think i can sponsor my wedding and it has nothing to do with being desperate.50/50 is the name of the game

seriously, we'd share the bill.

But in the U.S. it is customary for the parents of the bride to foot the bill.

@ poster: I'm a bit confused here. Is that an ad for a wife?! To the sponsoring part, in Yoruba land where you have the bride's family catering MAJORLY for a wedding ceremony & it so happens that the bride has been the one catering for her family, will it then be excused if she sponsors her own wedding under the guise that it's her family?! I'm just trying to juggle my thoughts,

“The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.”
Albert Einstein

A man that wants a woman to sponsor the wedding is no longer a man. He's just a human being with a penis.

“If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man.”
Mark Twain


From the stories of women who have tried this, they end up regretting it. Eventually, when the man finds his feet, you will expect him to appreciate u for being there when he was down. But what he will do will be to seek out a woman he can truly woo and win on his own terms. In his mind he'll see u as the woman who emasculated him and he will seek to prove his manhood and freedom outside.

A woman should contribute to the wedding BUT for the good of the man and the woman, she SHOULD NOT foot the entire bill of the wedding. It's a shaky foundation to build a marriage on. Instead, go for a small wedding and the man MUST contribute his own quota.

@ BP:

This is very much unfounded! you it is unfair to generalize this. Even men who counted their money to handle all d costs of a wedding to jolt d lady later, meanwhile, some men who could not sponsor their weddings still live happily with their spouses, so pls dont say what u are not sure of.

Totally true!! lipsrsealed
No matter how religious or sainty smiley he may be, his ego will surely rise the moment he is up to his feet. Its better to support rather than be the man at foundation level. Little did you know that one of the qualities that make him my man is the topic.

It is no news for a man to handle it cos it is his responsibility and whether the marriage stays or not should be between them.

What percentage of the marriage are happy today compared to the ones that failed as a result of the woman taking up bills at a foundation level?

For a guy to post that he has no intergrity, but a desperate woman to go after such a man thinking she would be incharge she's only deceiving herself cos there is always a richer lady out there with open arms ready to take the man from you after all he is a gold digger.

But sponsoring or co-sponsoring your wedding with a serious minded man who is trying to gather things together while you the lady has already does not sound like a bad idea.

There is nothing about egos or desperation. It is pure common sense. Basically, marriage as I know is meant to be an an institution made up of two people partners - One head, one support. If the "head" needs support in footing the wedding bills, then why not? After all, the man isn't marrying himself is he?

A man should be able to pay for his wedding 100%. Its the 100% that is a variable. If i can afford a 10 thousand naira wedding, i will tell my fiancee how much I have to spend on wedding but if she wants a 100 thousand naira wedding, then that is her problem.

Any man that puts an ad like that online is a correct efulefu. He will not only marry and knock you up like they did to tpiah, but they will run with your resources. You won't know how he looks in 5 years time.

Dear, it is not even integrity, it means he is not MATURED yet. Because both have to be matured in all aspect of life and the man should be able to have a say FINANCIALLY (no particular measurement for finances).

Come to think of it, the guy in the advert pasted by the poster is only looking for a desperate lady to fool, he is just 28 years and desperate for a wife. If he doesn't have a job, let him be patient while he gets something substantial or manageable doing. Any lady who makes this mistake will leave her life in regrets cos after the wedding she continues with the task!
