what?

Nothing o

We sure did Zulu, it all depends on family size too, i have 5 sisters and one brother and my husband has 7 siblings, plus cousins aunties u know what. Everyone invited who they knew and am the baby so it was tight. We had fun though.

I was looking for a site were i can do 419 on some white girl but i bumped into Nairaland

Zulu?

Hey TX, all i can say is do what you can afford . Our wedding cost way more than that. And if your family can help thats cool. I know mine did expecially when it came to gifts. A lot of family members came up with gifts that they gave away. Just to give you an idea of how much ours cost, We spent $4000 on clothing alone. We had about 25 canopies cos we did an out door reception and we made sure every canopy had their food and drinks surplus. The musicians cost quite a bit too. but all the same goodluck, i know my bride prize was not much. Where am from ( Asaba) we don't ask for much. Its actually whaever your family ask for. I know my friends dad asked for a penny for her sister. mine was under 50 bucks. I mean dowry. Just ask someone close to you to get you a list of everything you need, that will give you an idea. I don't know where you are from but in my place, the elders have a list of what the villagers will ask for and then you can figure out what your friends and her firends will need. I hope this helped some. Take care and all the best.

I took people to the airport, then went to lunch with my bestfriend and my 9month old daughter, We had chinese food and it was good.

Thank you my sisters (Hot- angel and Gigitte) Our plan is to have the traditional wedding and the church wedding all in three weeks cause that's all the time off I can get from work.

Hot-angel you are so right, when people hear you coming from the States the would expect like a grand wedding, seriously that's what scares the day light out of me. Not that my baby is not worth a grand wedding, I just don't want to spend all my money plus 3 credit card and come back and start drinking Garri for a whole year.

Thats why i asked what your budget is because i tell ya it ain't gonna be easy if you are from USA

I would hate to tell you how much we spent on our wedding in Nigeria 2004, we went from the US, can you give me an idea how much budget you have? You have to consider, family size and guests, i am ibo and i married a Yoruba man. And you know the yorubas like to party. Consider clothing ( depending on how many times you want to change) entertainment ( we had ibo and yoruba bands, they took turns playing), Food, you definitely have to have enough of that, drinks and gifts. Venue is very important, if anything make sure you have enough food and drinks.

They have green card movies google them and it might answer your qestion. I for one did not have to marry anyone for papers thank God.

I might be wrong but i dont think they will let her into the country if she tested positive. You know what i am 100% sure they won't. But you will find out soon am sure. Goodluck!

Someone actually wrote you can wear tampon all day? meen that must be some stench. ewwwwwwwwwww.Please change your tampon like you would pad.

bluenubian?? where have you been lately? Pads big? haven't you heard of always ultra thins? hmmm

Well i used Tampons for a very loooooooooooooooooooooooooong time and one day i met this lady that her daughter contacted TSS ( Toxic shock Syndrome) from using tampons, it is rare but it does happen. Read the leaflet that comes with it , they will tell you or used to i haven't used one in yrs but ever since i have been hooked on pad. I also think you feel clean with pad i mean everything comes out. Tampon only hurts when you don't insert it well, find a friend that uses it and have em show you how. It is pretty easy when you know how and comfy.

Seun:

What's "nwata w at"?

Yea, whats that?

I am from Asaba

I think okada riders should apply for a license, after they have undergone mandatory safety training. This way it would be safer for everybody, they should also be required to wear helmets.

I don't see any reason why they should be banned.

Makes a whole lot of sense considering one almost ran me over when i was in Nigeria a few years ago, you cant even take a walk down the road without almost getting killed. The driver even had the nerve to say he would slap me for blocking the road, thank God for having guys in my family cos they slapped the you know what out of him.

Thanks Zulu

Hey, did her family get to know you? Sometimes we make hasty decisions. My family didnt want me to marry a muslim guy but after they met him, the rest is history. On the other hand, sometimes its just not meant to be. So you got to do what you gat to do and trust me, God will send you your own just ask.

hey Zulu, odimma, gi kwa nu?

Hey, how come people dont think we delta ibos are real ibo? but i understand the language, well except some deep imo. Are we igbo kwenu too? haha

I am Ibo (delta), kedu nu

@CHRISTEL
in as much as you are all cute and stuff, i believe you have painted this site with your picture, we have seen you, you are beautiful, now can u stop posting the pics and post without seeking notice? thanks.

You know what, i apologise for wasting my ink on you, after reading this i have concluded that you are a hater.You are the weakest LINK. Goodbye.

dondele duh, different states am sure differents strokes, my nieces and nephews have has accounts(savings) since they were babies with their parents on there. My niece tried to open a checking account in TX at 17bcause she was going off to college and needed her own checking account t but they wont let her till she turned 18 and she just did. This is with chase bank. I utter out of experience my friend. Dont tell me what you think is right when i was there. geez. What did u say? parents or guardian. Did you even understand what i wrote in the first place? i dont think so. check yourself b4 you wreck yourself.Get it right please. Like i said the topic was not about brother and sister but husband and wife. There is a reason while this is a forum, she can come up with her own brother and sister allowance topic i think. Sometimes people shy away from whats on the table and i for one , i have a right to my opinion,and do not find that interesting.

divadarlin:

You need a social security# to open an account. The new rule in US (which they drilled during my oreintation) is that people on student visas only get a social security # when they get a job

Well i thought you had one but also some banks wont open an account for you if you are under 18 but savings you can have with parents on the account but yes you do need SS number, i can't think of anything you do in this country without SS number.

@ Babe1: Let women say no to men's sperms. Too many children huh!

No thanks ferd, do you want to kill me? I already have a daughter and we want two more by God's grace. If you can afford children married, why not. Not 12 and 14 yr olds making babies.

I am catholic and i married a Muslim almost two tears ago. So far so good, i don't go to the mosque and he doesn't go to my church but we do pray together to GOD. I take our 9month old baby to church, he has not tried to stop me and i know eventually he would wanna take her to the mosque. Hopefully the children can decide what they want when they are old enough. I think thats the only obstacle. I love him and he loves me unconditionally and i think that works great.

Where u raped young? As in 11 and 15 yrs of age? Maybe i should have said sometimes, because they end up thinking its ok to sleep around because they don't know any better. But sorry you were raped.

Hey Seun, i know its all yours and stuff but you could try and not be so hash, its not like you are talking to 2 year olds.That sounded a bit rude i must say. Apology accepted thanx.
