Party Chops: Wedding Menus Naija Style

The Main menu
Nigerian event menu’s cut right to the chase, no need for a starter WHY? Because Nigerians will fill up on that, haven’t you noticed our national complaint is the small bread portions we get while waiting for food. The main food menu usually includes either the Nigerian menu which includes your everyday staples such as vegetable stews, swallows, yam porridge, ofada rice and the almighty firewood cooked party Jollof rice or the Chinese option which is a Nigerian-sed rendition of Chinese food, this could either be a hit or miss – I was had the unfortunate pleasure of being offered Singapore noodles made with fat over cooked spaghetti, If you want proper quality Chinese served at your event, go through our registered vendors HERE, you won't be disappointed!

As Air is to life and dancing is to an Indian Movie (I’m yet to see an Indian movie without dancing) so is food to a Nigerian wedding. You sure would want your food to be so good that your guest can’t stop talking about it for a very long time. For this reason you need to pay close attention to what and how your wedding guest are to be served. It’s always better to ask for referrals from Family and Friends. Your other vendors such as the person handling cocktail or baking your cake may also have suggestions for a good caterer.

#6 : Unleash your creativity and create your own crafty favours

There is no better way to make your wedding favours truly personal than to create them yourself. Recruit your family members and the people in your wedding party to help out. Take note, however, that you should start assembling your wedding favours as early as possible to avoid cramming everything in right before your wedding day. Are you and your fiancee music lovers? You could burn your wedding playlist on a CD and give one to each guest as a favour. Another idea is to save the songs on a USB flash drive, which is nice and portable.

 

Beautiful, unique wedding favours are a graceful way of thanking your guests for the thought, time, rescheduling, travelling and gift-giving that they've expended to share your wedding day with you
