Honestly. If I get an understanding spouse, I can very well see myself doing this. We can go to the AG, sign the paperwork, then come back home and have cake. Kwisha maneno. A spouse who will understand that she isn't supposed to have a dream wedding?  . You need JESUS! Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

I actually respect these two more than those people who bombard us with requests for donations to throw a wedding that they cannot afford. At least these two are staying in their lane and are spending what they can afford. The main reason of a wedding is the signing of the marriage documents, everything else is for show. Hats off to that couple, they did what they could with what they had. I am sure they didn't go around telling people to contribute towards their wedding. Kudos.

Not all women feel like a big wedding is a big deal any more. Times are changing.

Did they have to imitate the cake cutting culture. Why torture bread that much - pulling it through such unfamiliar territory! Isuni yilu yi maa me muyo - ni Mbisuu

I am in the middle of planning for my own wedding( I am still shocked any woman would marry me)
Wedding is still small until you see the guest list. 60-80 people from her side and 120-140 people from my side, estimated guests 200-300 people. Wait what's the budget?
1. 75,000 for the chairs
2. 100,000 for pictures
The wedding is already 200k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fighting right now, the wedding my never happen afterall

There are more women in Kenya who are married without going through a wedding ceremony than those who demand for one. Many people are now starting to reason. Why spend Kshs 400,000 and I can get a kaplot somewhere with that amount. In any case after the one day drama, you will be poorer and the service providers will have a fat bank account. Why not use that money to buy a kaplot which you can keep as a memory for the day? But then again, if you admire most of the things celebs do, then may be you are a celeb and you need a wedding to satisfy your ego.

My friend, wait till you add clothes for yourself and bride, food, transport, photographs, paying for the church and venue for reception, cake, tents, catering to relas when they travel from shags,PA system, flowers and decor, wedding rings etc. You will have to budget for at least 700k. My wedding was at Ag's and thereafter we had an evening party and we spent almost 300k!
