missdivineprove:This shows how poor the brides family is and at the same time how considerate the rich are, being educated dictates that things are not rosy anymore in nigeria so weddings are done with a budget and minimal cost, a rich father in law would warn you not to over shoot ur expenses, the poor one would call you on the wedding night that the family house roof is leaking 1 Like |

[quote author=Memories12411 post=65635380]My candid advice to the ladies who are craving for elaborate wedding is to use the money to empower their home and watch people coming to leak their feet after gossiping about their low key wedding. Money unnecessarily spent during wedding to impress people who actually don't care. [/quot well said |

In all honesty, Op, you have said everything rightly. The real purpose of weddings have now been shifted for a lesser priority. As a wedding planner, in the course of my clients wedding consultations, I realize that majority of intending couples simply want fanfare and "social media wedding". Even when you suggest a cost effective approach for an ideal wedding, they still want a "celebrity" kind of wedding with sincere apologies to the brides when most of the onus lies on the groom who is definitely on a planned budget. Before you know it, it creates a strain that may linger into the marriage and trust me, you don't want a strained marriage from the beginning. Wedding is a day or at most 1 week event but a marriage is a lifetime process. This is why at Ladolph Events Solutions, we are dedicated to planning budget sized weddings yet with Quality and impeccable service.

One keep telling me that we must do the three i.e traditional, white , and court marriage. Let's see who will later surrender. Already many of them are weathered by age. The people who are collecting the most "killer" bride price are already having the most unmarried ripe ladies. Let 's see who'll surrender. Time will tell. 1 Like |

missdivineprove:and how far has such mentality help the woman & the marriage? How many times do we need to learn the same lesson? lets just say we have Africanize Suffering & greed, do u know what i have been tru? do u know how i suffer to get this or that......to us Africa, suffering seems more like a badge of honor so when we are in position of Authority instead of seeing it as an opportunity to make things less challenging we see it as an avenue to make it more difficult we the lame excuss that u have seen worse....is shamefull. So having two traditional wedding & giving it different name is not something we adopt. Is slavery mentality & we need factory reset 4 Likes |

You know the cost of wedding is high no doubt but a number of people are getting married on a minimum budget. The issue is planning and savings towards it. Having a good savings plan can enable you meet your goals no matter how little is put away..the old adage which says " little drops of water makes a mighty ocean" will always be true. But better still what if you are able to all at once 1) save 2) gain handsome returns on your savings 3) have the benefit of security attached to your savings and investment package in the case of a mishap To learn more simply click on this link to view my post on nairaland https://www.nairaland.com/4390380/negligence-insurance Thanks |

I'm 27 and the konji is tight and I would like to start a family now I simply can't because I will just put myself and my siblings in financial gbese. Besides I have seen several cases of families struggling woefully due to bad financial choices. Good income and management after character is vital to a healthy marriage. |
Re: The Effects Of High Cost Of Marriage In Nigeria by Ginaz(f): 12:14pm On Mar 11, 2018 |
The day for introduction would be my traditional marriage. After that I and my husband with friends and family only would head to the court to get our marriage certificate. And I move into my marital house. Or After making an introduction between both families, we head to the court (just family) then later fixed a date for the traditional marriage only. But I'm choosing the first option...if only I see a man that would agree with me and don't try to shift it to his way. My mom is a party woman, she pulls crowd. She might just be the only problem I have. Who cares about a big wedding, not me. I do things my way fuccck society. Apart from eating to their satisfaction, and filling up the chairs what else do they bring? And it's not everybody that will even be happy for you. 1 Like |
