You can do a modest wedding with ₦300k, and have some amount left.


Use your religious premises as venue.
Hire a reasonable amount of canopy for the after fun.



Cook modestly. Hire your sisters to be the committee for it.

Hire a good but cost-effective wedding gown.

If you have a suit, wear it. You can only buy a new shirt.

On that day,


Get married and go home with your beautiful wife.

Don't let anyone talk you into operation feeding the nation and pleasing onlookers. Always do things according to your balance.


There's life after weddings make you no go borrow rice in the morning.

Wedding a means of people wasting their funds to satisfy others people attention.


When I'm ready, I arrange meeting with both families to seek their blessings and approval, send her village people 1 quarter of what is needed and promise to get back to them and after that babies next... No public nonsense.


And for the village people waiting for me to get back to them, unto them shall my word be like that of a HR to a Nigerian job seeker.

As much as you can afford.

As a rule, if you don't have half of your total wedding budget in your account, you're over spending.

As much as you can afford..

Also Don't plan your wedding and Forget your Marriage.
Wedding is a matter of few hours.
Marriage is a life time commitment.
So be wise..

It all depends on the kind of crowd you want at your wedding. If you want strictly 100 people then for a modest one as you said, your budget should be at least 1m

Sorry to derail your thread op, but since my comment is on the first page, let me use this opportunity to ask the gurus here

How can I bring out the properties bar in my Google Chrome?

That bar where I can see file, Edit, View, History, etc

I've done basically everything and it still won't show up. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled the browser, it still, it won't come up

What am I missing?

Someone, please help me

PS: It's windows 10

Like other posters above me, I cannot stress these two points enough :

1. Don't borrow money to do your wedding

2. Never spend all the money you have to do a wedding. There's life after wedding.

So, my opinion (from my personal experience), just go to her village and pay her bride price, with family members only.

No friends, just your nuclear family and her nuclear family.

No extended family.

As for the white wedding, I'm not a church person, so I didn't bother about that.

Saved myself a lot of money.

I'm glad she accepted my method 100%.

If she would have objected, I would have told her to either foot the extra bills, or get out of my life.

I no look uche face.

That's how I did mine.

100k is enough.

Starve your guests.... make them pity you especially village people.

They might be foolish enough to contribute sef when you give them Garri + Water - Sugar to manage at Reception


By the way, 50k out of the 100k should be dedicated to aphrodisiacs.... na your primary responsibility be that otherwise....
