I want to know what my traddional wedding will look like or get inspiration for it. I have looked around but all I can find is Igbo traditional weddings. I want to know what it exactly entails, so post, post, post. Thank you |

I have seen it but I want a specific Yoruba wedding or are they all the same? |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by r231(m): 5:44pm On Apr 29, 2011 |
is there any other yoruba tradition wedding pictures apart from those |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by kandiikane(m): 5:51pm On Apr 29, 2011 |
It said traditional weddings, so I thought its a mixture of all tribes. |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by r231(m): 5:57pm On Apr 29, 2011 |
oh yea its mixture but you can still find what you are looking for there |

You're supposed to go with the wedding traditions of your own place, unless you'd rather not. But sometimes such things are significant. |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by kandiikane(m): 11:25pm On Apr 29, 2011 |
Yes I will go with traditions of mine but I am not Nigerian and my husband to be is a Yoruba and I would also like to incorporate his culture in the wedding too. Ok question: In yorubaland, who pays the dowry for the wedding man or woman? |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by tpia5: 11:29pm On Apr 29, 2011 |
Typically in yoruba culture the wedding is the bride's family's responsibility and as such the groom goes with whatever culture the bride is from. However these days people do as they like and incorporate whatever is convenient for them into the wedding. So, feel free to plan it whichever way you like- afterall, its your wedding. |

Oh alright. Well I am here to learn aren't I. But I want that tradition where the female bends on one knee and drinks and offers the husband palmwine in a small calabash gourd but I think it is Igbo tradition |

Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by Pweety4me(f): 2:21am On May 04, 2011 |
kandiikane:Luv how can u want a tradition?it's either u marry igbo or u marry yoruba?so. . .lol and mind u in yoruba traditional weddings the husband's dobale's (porstrates) for all the inlaws with his friend dems |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by Sissy3(f): 2:50am On May 04, 2011 |
makeup your mind already . you want a traditional yoruba wedding, you want an igbo wedding where the wife and husband share drink? |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by tpia5: 11:31am On May 04, 2011 |
Yoruba and igbo arent the only tribes in nigeria btw. Ijaw is also there and the current president is from that ethnic group. So i'm surprised more people arent trying to identify with them. Oil money and all that? |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by oludashmi(f): 4:59pm On May 04, 2011 |
@poster In the link above, most of the pictures are of yoruba traditional wedding. And as for the bride kneeling to give her husband a drink. . . .it is done during the reception party. Thats when you are asked to show how you will care and feed your husband at home. |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by kandiikane(m): 5:32pm On May 04, 2011 |
I want it all @Oludashmi, alright will check it out again. @Tpia@, yes I am we all know there are many tribes in Nigeria but I met a Yoruba man. |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by tpia5: 8:18pm On May 04, 2011 |
^^werent you the one going on about igbo wedding? we all know you got yourself a yoruba man. if you're going to have a united nations party then consider other tribes too. |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by kandiikane(m): 11:31pm On May 04, 2011 |
lol, I do not want a united nation wedding I just thought the "drinking serving" was lovely but I do not think it is a Yoruba tradition. rubbish |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by InkedNerd(f): 7:58am On May 05, 2011 |
@kandiikane: Are you marrying a Yoruba man? |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by kandiikane(m): 3:17pm On May 05, 2011 |
Yes I should do. Hopefully. Fingers crossed |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by dayokanu(m): 6:33am On May 06, 2011 |
Inked_Nerd: Duh, I am Yoruba |
Re: Post Yoruba Traditional Wedding Pictures. by OAM4J: 10:32pm On May 07, 2011 |
