I no believe say 250k go do weeding may until my guy do am

I am into catering services , I can Carter for 150 people food, drinks and water @ #150k . Connect with me if you are in Lagos

nNEOo:




My budget is... 500k

why not, our budget is 500k

This one that her business is doing fine maybe you didn't even contribute up to 30% of the total money but you're on here claiming to foot the bill of an unplanned wedding budget of 500k.

The spirit of entitlement is well pronounced on these shiit you wrote up there and you've not even walked her down the isle.

Not in NIGERIA please. If de lady wants she will her own thing

Good afternoon my amiable family people. I am planning a wedding with my fiancée my budget is 500K. Will it be enough for food and drinks. People coming from my side aren’t that much. She is yoruba and her mum says she wants a low key wedding and she understands we are young couple. But I just want my money to be able to cover for most things so it doesn’t look poor or low class.

Even this 500k na struggle I struggle am. Babe is on my neck and her business is going good. Please I really want to know what is needed

Sure, unless you want an extravagant ceremony.

500k?nt enough,u shuld budget 10m shey u want 2 marry d whole community

Why won't it be enough?




Must you invite the whole world to your wedding?

micronut:
Yoruba will say bi owo eku ba se mo n fi n boju " Na as rat hand small, na like that e dey take rub hin face". Work with what you have bro.

Your in-law have even made things easy for you.

200k will feed 400 people at N500 per meal. Cook rice like N250 worth. Drink of N100. Pure water of N50. Meat worth N100.

Spread 50k on your wedding attire - Get nice native & Affordable dresses. Like two styles.

Hold 50k for emergencies.

Get a hall or field for canopy, MC & DJ with the remaining 200k...

You can take pictures with phones and store in memory card and get them printed later.

Don't kill yourself with debts oo.

Meanwhile, guys check the 3D Wallclock for your home in my signature. Nice and beautiful for your sitting room, bed room and study room.

God gave u brain, and u are really putting it to good use

Nice advise

Hmmmmmm, I just want to marry a man that will solve every of my problems. A man that will buy me cars, build houses, take me on expensive dinner. A man that will lavish me with so much wealth.

I don't want where I will go and suffer. Abi na who no like better thing! Ahhhhh see this fine car, when I get married my husband will buy it for me. Hey.... It's okay wake up! Wake up !! Day don break, What makes you think you cant afford these things yourself even before you meet the man you will spend the rest of your life with? That dreams you are having for your future husband, why cant you have it for yourself? Real men don't go for liabilities oo, Gone are the days when men want a lady that will just sit home all day and get fat for them.

They want ladies that are industrious, full of business ideas. Ladies that are financially intelligent. ladies that can manage resources and not ones that will waste it. If you're still waiting on a man to relieve your family of poverty, then sorry for you. It's high time you understood that no man owes your family financial liberation.

Check your mail

For covid ?
My sister its too much sef , the last marriage I attended , we were given beans and yam no meat. . no jokes.
The most important thing is that you are married . Wedding is not even compulsory

phatek:
500k?nt enough,u shuld budget 10m shey u want 2 marry d whole community

let me quickly gather 500k and marry

l love this thread

God bless you. Your wisdom is top notched. Some people tend to do the opposite. This is my exact plan. If celebrities can be doing low key wedding, who I be?

Prof0fficial:
I wouldn't mind a low class wedding any day...but a high class life after wedding.

Bros plan for your marriage that is your life. But about your wedding check your pocket. it is a special day you will always remember for good. Don't let spending for your wedding affect your marriage. After wedding, you and your beautiful wife. Follow your inward witness God bless your wedding and marriage in Jesus name Amen.

zedegit:


That is quite tricky.

Clothes alone have gulped #100 k.

Won't you hire hall? If you don't, you are in luck.

Video/ Photography has gulped atleast #50k

Decor/cake/ - #50k

Infact let the wedding hall serve as reception.
Share takeaways and a can of malt.

No mc/ no effizy.


Wedding ends with "I do". I now pronounce you man and wife.


Hurray. Congrats. Welcome to the league of those that sleep with wrapper for easy access.

cloth you mentioned has he and the wife to be been walking about naked, videography how relevant is it, decor who e help.. all this are quite unnecessary, oyibo culture

melaninpop:
It's simple. Do traditional by 7am in the morning, go to church by 10am. After church service, serve food in the church. Wedding don finish oo. Carry your wife go house. Chikena.

this is a very good idea. One must not do reception..thanks for this.

crackhouse:
u dey mind am? It's clear babe is in a hurry and have mapped out 500k for her wedding and this guy is here claiming what I don't know.... hope u have rented your own house and not hoping to live with her in her apartment because u go hear am finally.

Don't mind the goal digger

Nairaland gives this insatiable urge to rant

Happy married life to him

you too much my guy

How can I share this to someone on WhatsApp?

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr
I was about to conclude by telling you yes
That the money will be enough

Untill i read the part of your story that states
She is yoruba

Aye eh ma baje ni like what do you mean if she's a Yoruba

Op hope you know wedding is a borrowed culture from the white the important thing even as stated in the Bible is both families giving consent and husband n wife agreeing to be one that's called marriage...
For your question am of the opinion 500k is well enough.. eg your wife to be I believe has been doing her make up for years herself and still is beautiful so what's the need for the new trend called bridal makeup where thousands are paid for it, both of you should sit decide and weed out unnecessary things like eg halls, ur church or compound can be used, and try make it strictly on invitation imagine u invite 50guest and she invited 50 too making it a total of hundred guest..
In a restaurant food is sold for 300 naira giving each guest a plate of that packaged food you discover only 30,000 has been spent ok let's add coke 100 and say 500 still 50,000 is spent on a parcel of packaged food and drink ...
Don't do your wedding for people do it for you that's what it all balls down to... I can do a dope wedding for under 500k
