Parakeet- my point exactly.

I've always thought it was kinda desperate to marry another person's picture. Maybe it makes sense to the people though...

But honeymoon in absentia??!

honeymoon in absentia. WOW!!!!LMAO. now that is something new.

Even the wedding in absentia, why not just pay the dowry and get it over with, why have a party????

My people the thing tire me.....I guess some of us...

2011-05-30T16:02:39.220+01:00

My people the thing tire me.....I guess some of us have to count our lucky stars that we don't find ourselves in situations like that. Long distance relationships of any sort are difficult, let a lone a marriage. I wish her all the best.... But from experience these unions rarely last...sigh

Honeymoon in absentia, I have never heard of that ...

2011-05-29T20:43:28.320+01:00

Honeymoon in absentia, I have never heard of that one before.
Wedding in absentia, I have seen many times and I just shake my head...I must it has reduced, there was a time, when it was the norm for couples where one party is based abroad.

Loooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllll. Lai lai, let...

2011-05-28T23:23:48.616+01:00

Loooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllll. Lai lai, lets not deceive ourselves, she aint honeymooning anything. she shoulda gone to meet the guy wherever he is naaaa.

loooooooolllllllll

2011-05-28T12:35:51.599+01:00

2011-05-28T02:12:58.020+01:00

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! i don't what's even funnier? That she had a wedding in absentia? or that she dey honeymoon on her own?

LOL she shldnt say she's on honeymoon cos ther...

2011-05-27T19:17:01.345+01:00

LOL she shldnt say she's on honeymoon cos there's no groom with her, she shlda simply said she's on vacation lol.
My uncle married his wife in absentia. He's in ATL while she's still in naij. I still dnt get why she hasnt been able to obtain a visa to see her husband up till today. Their marriage is retricted to phone calls and skype..smh

Seriously though i dont dig the idea too though i ...

2011-05-27T13:58:02.583+01:00

Seriously though i dont dig the idea too though i hear/understand that wedding pictures+marriage certificates facilitate the ease of visa/stay/resident permits in such cases....

Which may be why people still engage in such blatant nonsense!!!

I attended one with a friend years back and we kept wondering whether to greet the bride's sister who was representing the bride "congratulations"

Wow, I didn't know that was possible.

2011-05-27T13:54:34.936+01:00

Wow, I didn't know that was possible.

2011-05-27T13:53:41.266+01:00

Be there shaking your head if to say that Turk don gree look your side, we'd have been planning same for you *** winks*** LOL LOL

Man, that couldn't be me at all lol. A wedding...

2011-05-27T13:37:32.611+01:00

Man, that couldn't be me at all lol. A wedding with no groom? Thats not a wedding then. And no a "representative" will not suffice. Honeymoon without the honey is nothing more than a vacation lol. Like Ginger said, if both parties can't be there then there really shouldn't be all the festivity. If its possible, just wait until you both can be together.

ROTFLOL!!!!! Bladder hell no to a wedding in absen...

2011-05-27T13:10:20.164+01:00

ROTFLOL!!!!!
Bladder hell no to a wedding in absentia too. Whats that? I want a flesh and blood man by my side pls. Na wa, s babe was taking picture with frame or what?? I dont know who invented it or why people are adopting it but its just sad.sad.sad.
But really if it must happen i.e. to fulfill all traditional righteousness like the Germany-bound couple maybe. But it should be a quiet exchange of dowry between immediate family involved not big parry.
