marriage costs
horto I just noticed, sup with these astronomical marriage costs now a days, even the most modest ones are costing something in the neighborhood of 20K,let alone the fancy 40-50K ones (thats how much of a cave man I'm) and is it the norm for the girls to come with half the money or significantly contribute now a days?
lets discuss his phenomenon.

Re: marriage costs
I remember when I heard about this somali guy in London had a wedding at Hilton hotel and had so much food, singers, 300 people and it was so expensive the wedding. Then everyone finds out the groom works in Mcdonalds making burgers lolsamadoon-waaxid wrote:horto I just noticed, sup with these astronomical marriage costs now a days, even the most modest ones are costing something in the neighborhood of 20K,let alone the fancy 40-50K ones (thats how much of a cave man I'm) and is it the norm for the girls to come with half the money or significantly contribute now a days?

Re: marriage costs
To be honest its a old story that my sister told me, funny thing is this was the early 90's and he still did one at one of the most expensive weddings at Hilton hotel in Central london and he didn't even have a good job. I don't rmember anything else from the story.Perfect_Order wrote:King finish the story where did he get the wedding?
But I just remember it was kind of funny, I don't know if he was pressured into it.

Re: marriage costs
What is the point of pretending something your not for one day, and paying for it the rest of your life

Re: marriage costs
that's really stupid to spend all these money, hade dad gajeysan la qodinayo maha ika di'e laha!!!
my uncle married from his wedding reception, guys and women separate not even $1500. i even arranged it and made it as gift to my uncle.
maher ki iyo shabkadi ombi bihiyey and it was $8000 (because she was a family we gave that much, other wise half of that would work as a mahar). that's all what he spent from his pocket, plus the ticket (san'a ka so gursaday)
