Lol. This man says weddings shouldn't cost more than N50k
Lol at a wedding shouldn't cost more than N50k - how you for use N50k do wedding? sYou definitely should cut your coat according to your size but I doubt anyone's size is N50k. What do you guys think?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. Mayb in aboard u can see such tins taking place where they don't really care abt unnecessary ceremonies dusring wedding.
African's mostly in Eastern part of Nigeria, they wil cut off ur head in d name dat u want to wed that is y u fina a lot of single ladies not yet married, and majourity living wit men dat r not yet married to them.
Weddings cost r too expensive mostly in Nigeria. Even when u r try to cut cost u still fall into b a victim of high cost.

This idiot lwkmd, him nd his comment is very disgusting he never make a reasonable comment here on this blog, mtcheew!!! I think the man is right, I hate borrow borrow mostly during marriage. And what the person will spend it depend on what he have, but @list he can use up to 200k nd above, but if he know he doesn't have such money don't go nd borrow oh please.
From linda to the commentators. All daft. Linda before God blessed you, your wedding or your sisters would have cost around that. So PLS quit this brand new attitude. Stop acting like you haven't experienced both sides Abeg! And it's only in Nigeria people blow such stupendous amount on these carnivals they call 'weddings' then start scavenging and begging for money right after.
50k wedding whr abeg? That means d wedding would be done in an open field and guests will come with chairs n refreshment for themselves. Dis man is more than poor.
He may not really mean 50k on a real sense, I guess he is talking against people doing expensive marriages, I really feel it is not necessary doing over expensive marriage ceremonies. If u spend 20million naira on your. Marriage and I spend 50k on mine, I will still be addressed as a married man and. My ring will still be on my 4th finger. Am entitled to my own opinion.

lolzzz...Cut ur coat according to ur material.....dont spend too much for a wedding...YES YES.............BUT NO BE SAY 50K...HABA...HOW MUCH FOR GRADUATION PARTY???
The idea is that weddings ought not cost an arm and a leg, and with that, I do agree. Let's not necessarily trivialise it on the literal currency value at the moment. We know some people spend more of that on dog food weekly...
Stingy man? How much would be ur(women) own contribution for the wedding,u let the guy spend all and borrow so that u would look good b4 ur friends. Invest more in the marriage not in the wedding as the are 2 different things
Excuse you, the fact ur babe did not or dose not have which ever is the case does not mean you shud insult women. If a guy has to borrow to please some peoplethen he is not man enough and is a fake boy...cant even call him man.
Very funny. As for me, it's not jx about the wedding, it abt life after the wedding I.e Rearing kids n being responsible to the family. I think that's where the real expenses comes in.
Haba 9ja man! Yes is nt good to borrow money for wedding,No its not right do what ur capacity can but not lik 50k haha even a get together bday see 50k! Na struggle he go do am
Linda you doubt anyones size is 50k? Apparently you have no idea how impoverished some of our country folks are.Some peoples situation is worth giving one cardiac arrest.Hope has vanished.Even hopeless joined in the vanishing.Not funny
@Ally berry I jus hate the way u responded to Anita's comment. Anita is right and real. You shldnt borrow to get married in any way! U r not getting married for your friends and family. That's why most marriages don't last bcos of misplaced priorities! What the writer was trying to say was cut your coat to the size u deem comfy and don't choke yourself!! Anita, u jus won my heart! Much love. #copythat

Cut your coat according to your material.... 50k is even too much!!!! Registry wont take more than 10k and it is done. use 40k buy drinks and food for your invitees oh.... 50k has solved the problem!!!
Perfect reasoning! Or make donation. To the church u go to if it's not free. Any pastor who will want u to pay more than ur pocket allows in the house of God that ur tithe supports is not a true man of God but a business man
Ring, Photograph, clothes, transport..... Some costs are just inevitable which 50k will not cover.... The guys point is noted....spend according to your capabilities, don't borrow...

I agree, yeah if only the drink seller sells a 10 crates for 4 naira and the wedding gown sewn with white paper, then rent only 6chairs for 30 people without canopy in this rainny season, then the mc screams on his voice while we use our phone to play music, and guess what? Due to tomato's current ridiculous price we will then starve, em em no! We then declare a fast! ...oops I think iv even exceeded 49k, ...wait we ("couple) will treck to the venue cos fuel is still expensive, remember we didn't pay for party space? Yeah that's cos mama Ifeoma dashed it out to us cos shez a good Nigerian! How lucky we are in Nigeria.
That is the problem, caring about ceremony and out-doing each other. In a counrty where about 97% live under $2 a day. Of course N50K is more than enough for most. Having a registry wedding in most countries with your 2 witnesses is the cheapest option. It is the party that costs the most. Everyone should do them and carry go.
True! To do a wedding at Ikoyi Registry is less than 15k. I spent less than 80k for my wedding. I made sure I didn't borrow or beg anyone for money. Life after wedding na the koko. Pls read #letr2jil by @lekealder
SO LINDA YOUR GATEMAN AND GARDENER OR OTHER LOW INCOME PERSON WHOSE SALARY IS LESS THAN 20K ..CANNOT USE 50K TO DO WEDDING OKWIYA???.... YOU HAVE BECOME AN ELITE SO 50K IS NOW BEYOND YOR IMAGINATION..MTCHWWWW
I an surprised at you Linda.Wedding is simply when a man and a woman who have decided to live together are join either by a priest or a marriage registrar. Does it need to cost money

THE MAN IS RIGHT CUT YOUR COAT ACCORDING TO YOUR SIZE. HAVING STUPEDOUS WEDDING AND NOT SAVING UP FOR YOUR FUTURE RENT , SKOOL FEES AND FEEDING IS ANOTHER THING ENTIRELY
If you have the money, by all means have an extravagant wedding. My problem however is people who live in rented apartment, driving a Tokunbo car with no tangible form of investment borrowing millions just to impress people who don't even care if they exist.
After spending millions on your wedding you go back to living in your rented apartment struggling to pay your bills.
Before you drop N5m on your wedding ask yourselves as a couple;
1. Are we living in our own home? Not rented o! 2. Are we driving brand new cars? 3. Do we have enough saving to cover our daily expenses for at least 1 year should we lose our jobs? 4. Do we have active investments that bring us income or do we rely solely on our salaries? 5. Is this N5m a seed money that can be invested to multiply?
Your future is closer than you think. Plan towards it!
I know of someone dat spent less than dat. How u wonder? He did court and took just his family and d wife's family to an eatery for d reception. Yes dats what dey did and dey have 2 sweet kids and a lovely wedding poto on dere wall at home. Dats d way life sud be. U do according to what u can afford. U can rent a wedding gown for 7-10k and ur man can get a nice suit for 8k. Most girls want dere men to do a very big wedding dats y most times u see dem dating eachder for 5-7yrs all in d name of NO MONEY for wedding. Stay dere u go turn grandmum for ur parent house. #justmythought#
50k is it for the perfume or wat... abeg guy go look bush! jst simply tell guys to cut them coat according to their pocket. shebi wen u watch P Square wedding e sweet u for mind abi....
Buy marriage suit 11k, rent wedding gown 10k. Wedding ring 5k. Beg friends for car, church hull free, same venue reception. Balance moni for mineral n snacks.....so? Lol.
Why spend money you don't have to feed people that do not like you?
Some even get spiritually attacked for having an elaborate wedding. Call few family members and friends that are trusted. Get government approval which Nigerians call court marriage drive down to your church for your pastor to pray for you. That is all. For traditional only members of your family are required. I don't think N50k can do all the above.
It's gud not to incure expenses above ur means or income all in d name of wedding, cos there is alwayz life after wedding. I tink datz d point his driving out.
It's alwayz gud to cut ones coat according to size, jus one day ceremony suldn't land one in an everlasting indebtedness. Plan and manage ur means well. I tink datz d point his driving.
that you have 1M to do ur wedding doesnt mean anoda haz it... pple even pay wey less to get married. pple blabbing neta do wedding of 50k and c food chop dan do weddding of 1M and break up in few mnths time cuz yall broke as F.
I think he is talking of what we now call white wedding not traditional marriage.if it's white wedding he is 100% right, because i did my with less than that. An I and my guest are happy . Pls ur invited to any Catholic Church around u.
Na men Linda ask question but na women comment don plenty pass. Mumu Girls na big wedding una dey find that's why una no ver marry...You know ver see wen woman dey bring money give man just to marry them?????? That why most women dey marry wrong men. Because the right man dey plan wedding of 50k why the women dey find wedding of 5 million. To impress her friends and neighbors. After married problem start...Serve all you women right.
I had friends who had superlative wedding in 2009 spent over 35million on the wedding. Today they just upgraded to be renting in lekki but still no possibility of buying their own house yet. Husband is 45 and still clamoring for contracts. That money could have gone into buying their own house or starting a small business instead of paying for shuga band and fancy cakes nobody even ate
Very simple. Buy bend down suit for the guy. Simple a line sati gown for the lady or go to bend down, so many look like lingerie. What else, cook rice at home. Bride mum or in law. Don't hire any hall, talk to the priest about your budget, you use the chapel or hall outside. Makeup do it yaself. Hair go to local salon less than 1,500. Wear no shoe or old pair. It is not impossible just know your guests may come wth budget gifts like lipton tea, st Louis sugar, bag of pure water, salt, delta soap, toothpick etc which you will find very handy. Some just go to the registry by themselves no guest..nothing new just old choir uniform and old suit. Close family only come home for ofe akwu and rice and loud osadebe jams. Just trying to manage this 50k....pheww. it can be done but tufiakwa!!!! What a way to start life. You can plan and wait and save up for low key but 50k is a super squeeze. Unless going through a really tough time and you must marry by force!!@
Dis kind weding, venue wld b d bush, invites will b cows,refreshments wld b pure water n kulikuli,weding dreses wld b made of curtain materials, honeymun wld b in d guys ride or somtin dats if even hayad a barrow
He has a point. Know a gateman that did his daughters wedding with 10k. The point he is trying to make is to spend what you can afford instead of borrowing what may take you ages to pay back. Some couples can't even afford to eat or furnish their rented apartment after throwing 'big' weddings. The marriage is what is important not the wedding.
Its possible to have a wedding of 50k.1)he doesn't need to leave the church premises,after the solemnization he shares chinchin and gnut or zobo n gala or pancakes to the guest.
2)he can also decide to have a court wedding and take about 20 of his close friends/family to a fast food and buy them snack or food worth 20k.am sure family members would have sponsored the wedding dresses if not with this option he can still afford that.
3)He can make a huge cake and share if after the solemnization and everyone goes home gossiping.
It's not the elaborateness of the wedding that matters but the wisdom to make marriage work/build a home.
Abi ur high on weed ni..ow much will u rent hall, buy wedding dress, pay event planner n other expenses ehn? Abeg oga pack wella n shift..except someone is payin for all dose niyen or its a poor man's wedding ; shikena!
Well, not everyone can afford da luxury of a glamorous wedding, soo if na brick layer work d guy dey run... Re u saying he shud spend half his yearly earnings on marriage... Not every ones blessed with kudi ohhhh..if his inlaws ve agreed wif his itenary den... Guy carry on.. Make we just dey thank God for our own joor...jrace
50k is more than enough. Manage the venue. At a church service or at at mosque prayer time. Some crates of water and mineral. Parents and friends present. Wedding done.God bless union. We need to reaccess our priority. 50k is more than enough. People make a show of what is not, just to show off. Wedding should not be stressful. It's the officiating that matters. Las Vegas weddings or Ikoyi registry weddings. How much does it cost? Is it not marriage. Be wise plenty unmarried women want a Beyonce wedding or Stephanie Okereke Linus wedding. It's not for everybody. That is not the wedding or marriage ceremony but show off party entertainment. The officiating by the government official or Religious officials is the marriage. Done! You are married. Girls shine your eyes before you go for anything later just to have a child. Take the opportunity and Just Do it! You can entertain later at anytime!
Una cool down. It is very possible. Come to my parish in Aguata. Just manage and cook rice. Wear your Sunday best. Dance to the Lord, celebrate with that 50k if that is what is available. God always multiplies the grateful. Soon yhe couple will become sponsors for other people's wedding. In everything give thanks. Some 50k weddings habe become more fruitful and progressive than some 50million weddings. Every increase is a seed and a gift Be grateful. Na 5 loaves of bread and two fish na im feed 5000. Celebrate God!

Why spend money you don't have to feed people that do not like you?
ReplyDeleteSome even get spiritually attacked for having an elaborate wedding.
Call few family members and friends that are trusted. Get government approval which Nigerians call court marriage drive down to your church for your pastor to pray for you. That is all.
For traditional only members of your family are required.
I don't think N50k can do all the above.
It's gud not to incure expenses above ur means or income all in d name of wedding, cos there is alwayz life after wedding. I tink datz d point his driving out.
ReplyDeleteIt's alwayz gud to cut ones coat according to size, jus one day ceremony suldn't land one in an everlasting indebtedness. Plan and manage ur means well. I tink datz d point his driving.
ReplyDeleteGuess he's talking about the bride price
ReplyDeleteSee what poverty can cause. Oga o!

ReplyDeleteI'm sure he meant $50,000
ReplyDeleteOoooooooh my....!
ReplyDeleteSure cut ur coat according to ur size but @ 50k dat is poverty mentality.
I think he is talking of what we now call white wedding not traditional marriage.if it's white wedding he is 100% right, because i did my with less than that. An I and my guest are happy .
ReplyDeletePls ur invited to any Catholic Church around u.
N50k ke? Hahaha
ReplyDeleteThis man is on serious crack
ReplyDeleteIn as much as one has to curtail expenses so as to live happily after the wedding but not with 50k.
ReplyDeleteNo! U for go carry d girl free from d parents house. Otondo
ReplyDeleteNo! Don't pay at all, marriage is free of charge, see ur coconut head.
ReplyDeleteNa men Linda ask question but na women comment don plenty pass. Mumu Girls na big wedding una dey find that's why una no ver marry...You know ver see wen woman dey bring money give man just to marry them?????? That why most women dey marry wrong men. Because the right man dey plan wedding of 50k why the women dey find wedding of 5 million. To impress her friends and neighbors. After married problem start...Serve all you women right.
ReplyDeleteI lik ds man,hez weddin is probably around d coner n hez tryin to make his point so no one is disapointd
ReplyDeleteI had friends who had superlative wedding in 2009 spent over 35million on the wedding. Today they just upgraded to be renting in lekki but still no possibility of buying their own house yet. Husband is 45 and still clamoring for contracts. That money could have gone into buying their own house or starting a small business instead of paying for shuga band and fancy cakes nobody even ate
ReplyDeleteIn his dreams....
ReplyDeleteVery simple. Buy bend down suit for the guy. Simple a line sati gown for the lady or go to bend down, so many look like lingerie. What else, cook rice at home. Bride mum or in law. Don't hire any hall, talk to the priest about your budget, you use the chapel or hall outside. Makeup do it yaself. Hair go to local salon less than 1,500. Wear no shoe or old pair. It is not impossible just know your guests may come wth budget gifts like lipton tea, st Louis sugar, bag of pure water, salt, delta soap, toothpick etc which you will find very handy.
ReplyDeleteSome just go to the registry by themselves no guest..nothing new just old choir uniform and old suit. Close family only come home for ofe akwu and rice and loud osadebe jams.
Just trying to manage this 50k....pheww.
it can be done but tufiakwa!!!! What a way to start life. You can plan and wait and save up for low key but 50k is a super squeeze. Unless going through a really tough time and you must marry by force!!@
lmao..maybe thats the total of what he spent for his own wedding..lolzz..everybody with their own opinion,,cutting your coat according to your size..
ReplyDeletelmao..maybe thats the total of what he spent for his own wedding..lolzz..everybody with their own opinion,,cutting your coat according to your size..

ReplyDeleteIGBO MAN
ReplyDeleteHe has a point. Know a gateman that did his daughters wedding with 10k. The point he is trying to make is to spend what you can afford instead of borrowing what may take you ages to pay back. Some couples can't even afford to eat or furnish their rented apartment after throwing 'big' weddings. The marriage is what is important not the wedding.
ReplyDeleteI will say don't over do it, do according to your pocket.
ReplyDeleteIts possible to have a wedding of 50k.1)he doesn't need to leave the church premises,after the solemnization he shares chinchin and gnut or zobo n gala or pancakes to the guest.
ReplyDelete2)he can also decide to have a court wedding and take about 20 of his close friends/family to a fast food and buy them snack or food worth 20k.am sure family members would have sponsored the wedding dresses if not with this option he can still afford that.
3)He can make a huge cake and share if after the solemnization and everyone goes home gossiping.
It's not the elaborateness of the wedding that matters but the wisdom to make marriage work/build a home.

Not every ones blessed with kudi ohhhh..if his inlaws ve agreed wif his itenary den... Guy carry on.. Make we just dey thank God for our own joor...jrace
ReplyDelete50k is more than enough. Manage the venue. At a church service or at at mosque prayer time. Some crates of water and mineral. Parents and friends present. Wedding done.God bless union.
ReplyDeleteWe need to reaccess our priority. 50k is more than enough. People make a show of what is not, just to show off. Wedding should not be stressful. It's the officiating that matters. Las Vegas weddings or Ikoyi registry weddings. How much does it cost? Is it not marriage.
Be wise plenty unmarried women want a Beyonce wedding or Stephanie Okereke Linus wedding. It's not for everybody. That is not the wedding or marriage ceremony but show off party entertainment. The officiating by the government official or Religious officials is the marriage. Done!
You are married. Girls shine your eyes before you go for anything later just to have a child. Take the opportunity and Just Do it! You can entertain later at anytime!

ReplyDeleteUna cool down. It is very possible. Come to my parish in Aguata. Just manage and cook rice. Wear your Sunday best. Dance to the Lord, celebrate with that 50k if that is what is available. God always multiplies the grateful. Soon yhe couple will become sponsors for other people's wedding. In everything give thanks. Some 50k weddings habe become more fruitful and progressive than some 50million weddings.
ReplyDeleteEvery increase is a seed and a gift
Be grateful.
Na 5 loaves of bread and two fish na im feed 5000.
Celebrate God!
Is the 50k for the cake or d decoration or the wedding gown or suit am comfused at the statement
ReplyDelete50K wont go anywhere oooo. Have you finished church clearance?
ReplyDeleteNOT POSSIBLE TO USE 50K FOR A WEDDING EXCEPT YOU HV BOUGHT ALL THE THINGS NEEDED FOR THE WEDDING AND NOW HV EXTRA 50K
ReplyDelete50k is too small for wedding Mr man
