Walaal, bal dib u kahri what I wrote..I said 70%..Maybe you are one of the 30% remaining..Good for you :up:

I agree with you, we all waste money in some way or the other..True that..But let us do the math for the chewers;

$1,200.00 a month X 12 months= $14,400.00 :!: :!:

So the wedding expense aka extravgancy will be almost the same amount of what he chew in a year and half :!: :!: :!:
The sad part is, the wedding and its expense is done one night but the kat is a lifetime extravagancy :( :( :(

Acuudu Bilaah...Nimanyahow xoogga hala saaro Jaadka sidii la isaga wacyi gelin laha... :down: :down:
I agree and I'm not gonna justify people eating khat, but what I will say is that if you as a woman decide to marry a man with balwad then you are asking for it.

Even if you find a half decent man, spend within your means. That's my argument basically. Nobody can justify spending that amount of money on an one-off event.

20K is not that bad for a wedding...I mean a decsent hall with catering and good food alone would probably cost 12000-17000, the dress, videographers, flowers, invitations, music, limmo(if need be) and misc. would round up to 20,000 if not more.....
Thats not extravegant at all.....stop being meladramatic.....

pretty tacky to rent a limo for a day when its not your usual choice of transport. buy some reebok shoes on sale and walk around instead.

average somali wedding cost in my neck of the woods is $15,000+....$50,000(max)

the most over the top wedding budget i've seen so far was roughly around $100,000....ridiculous, frivolous spending if you ask me.

Inshallah my wedding budget will be 5k lool. Serious i'd rather throw the money in a drain, then spend that much on stupidity.

As for the wedding, I might still go, probably eat the food, say hi and then chill in the lobby with my cousins.

Nobleman,

The trick is to turn wadaad a few months before you get married and explain to your wife that your family don't believe in big, mixed company weddings.

$5K covers food, the wadad's fees, and Quran akhriis.

Abdi neat strategy bro.

20K damn, I wouldnt mind putting 20k into the family home as a down payment. God help us it takes years to safe that on an average farax's income. To blow it in one night is just unintellegent.

I think any girl that wants such nonsense needs to safeup 20K.

Anywoman that has such expectation without making any contribution towards it is not worth a penny. Better to go mosque and find a wadaado.
