Welcome to Nigerian Wedding

Most current-day weddings in Nigeria follow more western processes, in terms of the weddings being held at church, the bride being in a white gown, the groom being in a suit, some entourage, and a reception following, during which the couple usually are in traditional attire and eat traditional food, and play a combination of American music and traditional music. Some wedding ceremonies are also held in a courtroom rather than a church.

'Fast food' is becoming more popular in Nigeria, but for the most part, most people eat at home, but in mine, when you cook, you don't cook for just you and your family, One of my future goals is to have food from other cultures on here, The below is not an all-inclusive list of the foods that are available now, or even those that were available the last time I was there it is just to give an idea of some of the foods available.

Two major types of marriage exist in Nigeria:- monogamy, a marriage of one man to one woman, and polygyny, a marriage of one man to two or more wives

In most cultural groups in Nigeria, traditional marriage is usually an arrangement between two families as opposed to an arrangement between two individuals.

In most Nigerian cultures, the man usually pays the dowry or bride-price and is thus considered the head of the family. Adultery is acceptable for men, but forbidden for women. Marriage ceremonies vary among Nigerian cultures.

The Idoma people live in central Nigeria, in the Benue State. The myth of their origin states that they are descended from the Zulu tribe of South Africa. They are mainly warriors. Some of their subgroups are the Apas, Ofokanus and Owukpas.
