Introduction

Traditional wedding day is a ay of joy for both the woman and the man. The two families and their friends are also happy to see two different people come together to become one. Before this wedding day, a lot if things have been put in place to make sure it is a successful one. As you continue to read, you will find out how traditional marriage is done in my community.

How is traditional marriage performed in your hometown, village or community. What things are required from the husband-to-be.

1.when the young Man and woman had come to an agreement that that they love each other and will live together as husband and wife. The Man will tell his people that he has found a beautiful rose that he will like to spend the rest of his life with. He will tell them the family, state and country of the lady that he wants to marry. He will also tell them why he has decided to marry her.

The lady on her own part, will also tell her parents that she has found the love of her life and he has promised to marry her. Her parents will now ask her to bring him home so that they will know him. When this 2 families have come into agreement, a day will be fixed for a knock on the door.

2.Knocking at the door is a tradition that the Man is officially making himself known to the family of his wife to be that he is thr Man that their daughter told them that is coming to marry her. On the other hand showing his own family the lady he wants to marry. It is that day that they will give him list that the traditional requirements to marry their daughter.

How is the actual marriage performed.

Now that the Man has collected the list. He will go home with his people and gather all the the requirements. He will now inform his in-laws the day he will come. He will go again with his people to meet his wife people. After paying all those things. They will now fix a day for traditional marriage in which friends and well wishers will be invited.

Normally traditional marriage is do done in the evening of that day. They will invite traditional dancers. Traditional food will be served too. All sorts of drinks will be available for people yo drink.

What type of food is served, music played, the type of clothes worn by couple on the marriage day.

It is a great occasion, honored more than English wedding so as your money reach, Invite as much as you can. The truth is that, it is an unforgettable day in your life. If you have money, let's eat it together.

Other things you need to know about traditional marriage.

What ever you see in the traditional marriage is a well planned something. Sometimes it takes months to plann. Yes, to put all those things in place is not a day job. There will be planning committees set up by bride and bridegroom. They will sit down and calculate the cost and take it one by one.

Conclusion

Just like every other thing, agreement is important between the two families to set a day for traditional marriage. It is also important for the Man to be humble not to claim what he cannot do. If you found favour before your in-laws, your load will be light but if not, your name na sorry. Marriage is a life time covenant while traditional marriage is one day event so use your brain well. Do not spend your business capital to please friends and go home calling your wife a set back in your life.

@ijelady, thanks for this contest entry, the way traditional marriage rights are carried out in your village is amazing. In some cultures, the man must buy about 50 to 100 wrappers before he could be allowed to take the marriage list. Wow, I wish am a man, I would have loved to marry from your side or community. But pls, can you tell me the name of your community or city.

I agree with you concerning what you said about the man being humble and not claiming what he can't do, for he's own good. Lastly, the food is nice.

Hahahaha, thank you for reading and commenting. You know when a man claims what he is not. His list will be high and he may find it difficult to meet.

😂😂😂😂 Exactly. Most young suitors behave like that just to avoid intimidations

You got a great town/community. Traditional marriage we know is the best type of marriage. It's only a few that will spend his business capital just to entertain friends and family. I like your entry.

Thank you. I feel sad when couples find it difficult to feed after wedding or have a lot credit to pay because they did big wedding to please friends and families.

That's very unwise. Adults should be smart enough to know their limits.
