Hi, If you were to choose which ceremony to perform which would it be and why. Personally I beleive that the traditional marraige is the most important. If I had my way I would just do a registry thing (with just the key people in attendance) and then a full scale traditional wedding. |

"Give to Ceaser what is Ceaser's and to God what is his". Each of them is just as important as the other in my own opinion |

Better pick the one , you know it origin, and not the copied one, you do not know where it originate. |

bunmii: if you are to pick one, you have no other choice other than traditional marriage because no good church will wed you without your traditional marriage first |

i don't think there is such a things as traditional african weddings anymore as even these have a hint of western culture but if i was to pick one, i'd definitly pick african, |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by brownbaby(f): 4:47pm On May 03, 2007 |
I'll pick the traditional wedding. |

joey22:what kind of nasty things |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by ayeesha: 5:15pm On May 03, 2007 |
i will do both,but prefarabely on a small scale.im not a crowd person. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by pisces20: 5:18pm On May 03, 2007 |
well for me both are important. when you perform the traditional marriage it means you respect your tradition and performing the white wedding is like inviting God to your marriage because without Him the whole thing'll just flop. |

Beline: really? |

Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by frankiriri(m): 5:28pm On May 03, 2007 |
Beline:I dont agree with this statement. My uncle wedded in a catholic church many years before he did the traditional ceremony. They did not have the finances to do the two at the same time and the bride's father requested that they post pone the trad. The only thing I know is that many churches require proof of the girl's family consent and performance of the traditional rites usually suffices in that regard |

if you are to pick one, you have no other choice other than traditional marriage because no good church will wed you without your traditional marriage firstFrickn Lie! |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by RedLips3(f): 5:30pm On May 03, 2007 |
I guess all the weddings done outside of Nigeria are a sham then. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by Besteric(m): 6:11pm On May 03, 2007 |
Guys,, you are married the day the parent or Guardian of the girl welcomes you into the house and recieves anything(drinks) from your hand,,letting relatives drink and eat with you,,, thats dat,, any other thing remains ceremonial |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by frankiriri(m): 6:15pm On May 03, 2007 |
Besteric:true talk. But in instances where you marry without the parents consent does that invalidate the marraige, |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by Jaybee2412(m): 6:30pm On May 03, 2007 |
None, it's all farce! . I did both once. Now, never again |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by finemocha(f): 6:42pm On May 03, 2007 |
white wedding homie. how else will i get to wear a very sexy wedding gown hmm. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by dela(m): 7:29pm On May 03, 2007 |
both are important depends on individual. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by joobreel(m): 7:58pm On May 03, 2007 |
white or traditional, it depends on the individual's belief. but i think the white one is better. it biblically binds you to just your partner. the traditional one gives room for more than wife(as a man). also based on the suit and wedding gown and other stuffs, i would like to have pictures of such in my sitting room. it would be lovely. white wedding will make you more careful about adultery cos you know, God's words are involved |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by busygirl(f): 8:28pm On May 03, 2007 |
both. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by romeo(m): 8:42pm On May 03, 2007 |
traditional please, and what the Bleep is white wedding doing in my life when i am black? you can get a minister of God to pray on ur traditional wedding day and that makes it a Godly one hmm |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by freespirit(m): 8:48pm On May 03, 2007 |
If you are to choose means you'll take one out of the two. so,why are some people saying both? opinions are just being soughted for between the two. personally i'll go for wine carrying cos thats our recorgnised tradition |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by dinnerm(f): 9:18pm On May 03, 2007 |
my bobo does not believe in white wedding so wat do i do,it would be the trad.wedding then the court. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by ricadelide(m): 9:43pm On May 03, 2007 |
why is it called 'white' wedding? Because its an imitation of what obtains in the western world? i'd have both a church wedding and a trado if i happen to marry a naija girl (otherwise, just the church wedding) |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by RedLips3(f): 9:54pm On May 03, 2007 |
Im assuming it's cos of the white dress. |
Re: Traditional Marriage Or 'White Wedding'? by chichimma(f): 11:55pm On May 03, 2007 |
I choose both. First the traditional and then the court thingy which is referred to as white wedding. Actually the order does not matter as long as it is ordained by the Almighty God. |
