LADIES!!

After Traditional marriage Your hubby ask you to choose between #3.3m to start a business or white wedding.

Only one option

What will you choose

They will still need the two, just look at the one under me, just simple question but na grammar she dey speak.

Since I'd have my own business, I'd pay for the white wedding if he wants one, though I might start to wonder why he'd suggest such rubbish after the traditional when it should have been decided when we agreed to marry.

Sorry op, but your question suggests the sort of woman who has no feet to stand on.

Read the post again. It doesn't suggest a woman who has no feet to stand. The post clearly says for her to start business. Meaning she didn't have any.

May I chip in that, you have the means doesn't mean it has to happen. My wedding with my wife almost 10 years ago cost us 6.5million. My wife and I are doing very well. One day she woke up and asked me, why did we spend that much for our wedding just to dance and eat for few ours. She spent fortune for her wedding gown. We travelled outside the country to shop for wedding. The 6.5 million was just for the ceremony. Today, we both say it was childish. Simply impressing people that dont care. The most important thing in wedding is the pictures and video. Keep memories. Nothing more.

Planning for 10 year anniversary. She said no way. We won't gather people to feed them anymore.

She now prefers a weekend gate away and that's all.

People do a lot to impress friends and family in weddings. It's a show off.

Abeg, Does Oyibo people have traditional wedding and then do another type of wedding.


why do we do traditional and then do Oyibo man own.

Even in Bible marriage in Cana of Galilee was between 2 families,

Is white wedding another signature of colonialism hunting us.

Read my post again and you might understand that "no feet to stand on" means "she didn't have any", which makes the op not applicable to all as I stated and as you've shown with your own wife's realisation.

Bannies of nowadays would rather go for the white wedding than the money . They value marriage certificate pass school certificates these days.

The money

They would say the money i.e because the money is going to them.

As a guy tell them no white wedding because it is a waste of money or you don't like it rather you save it. You'll see them frown and throw tantrum.

A wedding.
The honour of being married in church is priceless.

In Catholic church, you can't become a christian mother or join the CWO, except you wedded in church.
Same applies to men.

Not only girls the men too. In fact it is a Nigerian thing.

How much do you think the average Nigerian spend on wedding/marriage list/bride price Combined?

What is the income or average salary of the average Nigerian?

A guy earning 70k or 100k... You'll see them throwing wedding of 1.5, 2, or 3 million.

It took them 6 or more years to gather this oo. Yet they'll go and throw it on just a day party called wedding.

Why not just pay bride price carry your wife. Use the money upgrade your life to earn more by investing? But no.

A lady I know was lamenting how there is no work, no money to start a business, her husband too doesn't earn much... saying had it been she has 500k, she'll have started a business... This is someone whom just wedded not more than 2 years ago oo.

So they can spend probably millions on wedding yet doesn't occur to them to instead use the money to better their lives instead.

The op is referring to the ceremony or party that is usually thrown. Not the joining before the church or god.

You can be joined in the reverend fathers office with just your parents, a witness or sponsors. Simple

Of course, I wouldn't mind a simple wedding.

One thing I like about the Catholic church is that they usually organize group weddings for couples who cannot afford to have a wedding on their own, so you have no excuse as to why you're not wedded in church.
