If you’ve ever wanted to see examples of what a real Nigerian wedding budget looks like, this post gives you a peek into the what five different couples spent on their small weddings that took place in Nigeria.
This post is for you if you have been asking questions like ‘how much does a wedding cost in Nigeria? or how much should I budget for my wedding in Nigeria? or what is the average cost of Nigerian weddings?’.
The sample budgets from the weddings below include a breakdown showing everything that made up the overall wedding costs. Read on.
How Much Is Needed to Plan a Small Wedding in Nigeria?
Have you ever wondered “how much are Nigerian weddings“? or even how much do I need to implement my wedding plans in Nigeria? Figuring out how much a wedding will cost is not something that most couples like to do.
The fact is that when you start planning your Nigerian wedding, you will have no idea how much things cost. A good place to start is looking at other couples wedding budgets to see examples of what they spent on their own Nigerian weddings. You can use that as a base to start making an expense list and items to budget for, in your own wedding.
Here are the example budgets for micro, small and mid-size weddings in Nigeria, click to see them one by one:
- The N200k micro-wedding budget breakdown examples: See examples of micro weddings planned with N200k
- The N500k small wedding budget breakdown: Example of a small Nigerian Wedding with a budget under N500k
- The N700k wedding budget break-down: A wedding that cost below N700k in Nigeria
- The N1m wedding budget break-down: A Nigerian wedding with expenses nearly N1m
- The N2m wedding budget breakdown: 3 examples of what a N2m wedding budget looks like. The post showcases two Nigerian weddings, with samples of their wedding budgets and a breakdown of their expenses.
- Wedding Budget for 300 Guests in Nigeria – See how these 3 couples planned it, from a breakdown of their expenses.
- The N1.5m wedding budget breakdown: A wedding where the couples spent under N1.5m in Nigeria
I often get newly engaged brides and grooms ask questions such as: “what should my wedding budget be”, “show me an example of a Nigerian wedding budget”, “how much does a small wedding cost in Nigeria”, “how should I budget for 100 guests for a wedding in Nigeria” or “how can I plan a Nigerian wedding with N400k”.
While you can find the answer to such questions when you make your own wedding budget or cost estimate, some couples prefer to start off by looking at examples of other people’s Nigerian wedding budgets. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that because some of us are simply wired to understand better when we see things in action and through examples.
Average Wedding Cost: The average cost of the 5 small Nigerian weddings we showcased in the examples is N1,022,280.00 – in case you wanted to know. Note that this may not be the typical average cost of Nigerian weddings, but at least you get an idea to start preparing for how much to plan to spend in your own wedding.
Cost of Nigerian Weddings: Some non-Nigerian partners of our Nigerian sisters ask ‘how much does a Nigerian wedding cost?’. The answer is that the cost of weddings here differ according to the earning-power of the couple involved. The best way to look at how much a Nigerian wedding costs is to look at the average cost of wedding by the low, middle and high income earners. You also get bands of income classes within each of those 3 classes. To keep it simple, Nigerian weddings cost between N200,000 and N20,000,000.
Most Nigerians are low-income earners, and they spend as low as between N200,000 and N500,000 (sometimes, with financial assistance from friends and family). There’s the class of Nigerians whose weddings cost between N700,000 and N1,500,000. You also have a class of Nigerians whose weddings cost above N1,500,000 and up to N3,000,000. Then, we have a class of Nigerians who spend between above N3,000,000 and N5,000,000. The upper class Nigerians spend above Five Million Naira (N5m) and as much as N20m (Twenty Million Naira) to get married – sometimes even more.

Kay says
Hello Stella , thank you for the blog very informative . Please i do like to know with the currently price surge in Nigeria is 2m realistic for traditional and court wedding everything inclusive . location Sango Ogun state .Thank you
Stella Anokam says
Hi Kay. Thanks for your compliments and question.
Yes, in Nigeria of today, N2m can realistically plan a traditional and court wedding. The secret is in your number of guests, which controls the catering budget and venue budget (larger venues, more cost). If you can cut down your number of guests to an affordable number, you are good to go. Do whatever you can to keep unwanted guests away – a strictly-by-invitation wedding or hiring bouncers or choosing a far venue.
How you are able to make that amount work depends on how you can plan it. That’s why wedding planning is key. If you hire a planner and tell them your N2m budget, they’ll help you plan how many people to invite, how much to spend on venue and vendors, and outfits – and then source the best vendors and venues for that budget.
If you are planning yourself, I recommend to start by breaking down your N2m budget. I created an automatic online wedding budget calculator that will do that for you.
SUMMARY TIPs:
-Start by putting a number limit on your guest count, get a budget breakdown and use it as a guide to not go over-budget.
-Keep your number of guests small, so that your catering/ food budget can cover. It’s better to have a smaller quality crowd than an overcrowded wedding. You just can’t invite everyone, you know.
–Find a venue within your budget breakdown, and options to keep venue cost down include outdoor venues
-Consider renting some wedding things from quality places to cut down cost
-Having both your traditional and court wedding on same day is an additional way to keep cost down. That way, you’re cooking only once for both weddings.
The reality is that one man’s idea of small budget is another man’s reality of huge budget, especially in Nigeria. The fact is that many couples don’t earn a lot, and are struggling to save up even N500k for a wedding, and some are happily spending N300k on a wedding in today’s Nigeria.
Hope that helps.
Hi, stella I want to plan a wedding of 1.5m just in 2months time please help me out I dnt knw where to start. With at least 200 guest
Hello Evelyn, the best place to start is to know your numbers, which is: number of guests (you’ve done that) AND budget.
So, look into your bank accounts (you and your partner) and decide how much of your saved-up funds you are willing to put into the wedding. There is no right or wrong AMOUNT – set your budget within your affordability.
Once you have set your budget AMOUNT, go to our automatic wedding budget calculator page to get a suggested budget breakdown.
After getting your budget breakdown, you should start looking for a venue and vendors that fit your budget breakdown.

Hi this budget of a thing if a couple budget of 600k what will now be the event manager’s gain?
You may be able to find out by asking ‘the event manager’ that your couple booked with. I don’t know.
Thanks. You asked this same question twice.
Hi Stella. My boo just proposed and wants us to get married November with a budget of 600k for both traditional n white wedding with 200 guest in mind. Am scared on how to pull this through please help me with a breakdown.
Hi Efe. First, let me congratulate you on being engaged. My reply (below):
The number of guests you’re looking at for that budget is too much. Consider reducing it.
I think N600k for 200 guests is too tight and unrealistic, given the recent spike in the cost of foodstuff and everything. That comes to N3k per guest (N3k x 200 people). It would be easier to pull if you can bring down the number of guests to 100 or 120, or 150. But here’s an idea for you:
-Host traditional and white wedding ceremony on the SAME DAY, meaning one-time feeding of guests.
-It would be easier to pull this in a place that is not high-brow/ GRA, such as in a village or not-GRA part of a state.
-Find a free venue (e.g. your parent’s compound, your village community square, etc.)
-Cook the food in-house (by your mum and her women’s meeting or selected relatives)
-Buy raw food, drinks and other materials in bulk at wholesale markets.
-Try working your budget breakdown this way:
Allocate N300k for Food + drinks, which breaks down to N1,500 per guest
Spread the remaining N300k on couple’s attire, photography, venue decor, DJ, MC, etc.
>Allocate N100k for bride and groom’s
-Rent your wedding gown and buy an affordable material for the traditional, and then do cut-and-sew with an affordable tailor. [If you ask and search very well, you should make the budget for your outfits].

Hope that helps, Efe.
Hello,
Thank you for your blog, it is very helpful. to us brides to be. Looking for a little advice, I am from the Canada (not Nigerian) and have agreed to have a traditional wedding in Lagos because that is where my fiance is from, and it would make his mom happy.Keep in mind, I am in the midst of planning a small white wedding in the Canada as well because it is not practical or everyone on my side to fly to Nigeria. Leading up to agreement to hold this Lagos trad wedding, no one mentioned anything about a budget even though I asked my fiance about it multiple times, but it seemed like an uncomfortable subject so I left it alone since he said not to worry about it. My biggest concern, which turned out to be true was that I did not know what the spending power is in Nigeria vs Canada, ie what does a typical budget look like in Nigeria for a wedding. I guess i should have found this blog a few months ago 🙂
At this point his family has paid deposits for the venue and the planner, but still no one mentions budget. But things are moving along. After putting pressure on the planner to share with me a budget of what to expect, she has now hit me with a N20,000,0000 sample budget of what is “typical”. The planner is putting pressure for deposits to secure the vendors. The headcount for the Lagos wedding is estimated at 500 people. The venue is in VI if that makes a big difference.
How do you suggest I handle this? Am I being taken advantage of as a foreigner or can this quote be real? And why has no one brought this up until now that I’ve insisted? First of all the average very nice wedding in Canada would be half that price, so I am a bit upset at this point.
Hello VIBride, I’m happy to learn that our articles are helping your wedding planning journey. Also, thanks for the lovely feedback. Here are my thoughts on your questions:
– Can that (N20m) budget be real? Yes, it can. Cost of wedding things are either high or low, depending on the class you want of venue, outfits, decoration, food and drinks, photography and live music band – there are the cheap and the expensive types of everything. If the venue your fiance booked is an upper class location and property, it could cost millions. And most such venues have expensive catering that may include continental dishes. Here in Nigeria, you could find an event venue of N5 million and also one of N500k (5 hundred thousand Naira); You can find a caterer serving jollof rice of N1 thousand Naira per plate, and also an upscale caterer doing jollof rice of N3 to 5 thousand per plate. And people with more money prefer to have a number of assorted dishes served at their weddings – that adds up the cost. Upscale, tasty venue decorations are also very expensive – costing in the millions. Music bands can also be very expensive – some popular ones cost over a million to be hired.
>So, as a Nigerian, people’s wedding budgets are guided by the social class they belong to, and how wealthy they are. >Maybe your fiance is from a popular, wealthy family – and that’s how they roll.
-On what a typical wedding budget looks like in Nigeria, AND the spending power in Nigeria: There’s no typical budget with Nigerian weddings, and that is because there’s a big divide between the very rich, the average, and the poor. The very rich Nigerians can spend as much as N10 million or N20m and above on weddings alone, with their class of event venues costing above N1m (one million Naira) and up to N5 million naira. >Weddings at such expensive venues could have food and drinks per guest cost above N10k (Ten Thousand Naira), and you can guess how much that comes to for 500 or 1,000 guests.
*NOTE that the wedding budgets in this article you commented on, are not the kind of money rich Nigerians spend on weddings. Our readers are typical Nigerians – some poor, some middle class and some regular or poor, and our content caters to all. Because of how the rich spend on weddings, many low-income couples are afraid to approach weddings and we try to show them how they also can.
-VI Venue: Lagos venues, especially Victoria Island and Lekki are very costly, usually costing millions of Naira. See some of the prices in this Encomium magazine article.
-Likely Reasons Why Your Fiance did not want to disclose the traditional wedding budget to you: Could be that they are taking full charge of it (paying the bill), and possibly, the cost is very high that you may not approve of. The truth is that Nigeria weddings can be very expensive if both or one of the couples is from a wealthy family. May be he doesn’t wan’t to shock you with the numbers – simply relax, if they are the ones paying the bill.
The primary concern here is not often about how much, but about ensuring it meets or exceeds the expectation of the wealthy friends of the couple’s parents and their extended family. Nigerians believe in inviting as many people as they know, without a care of how the guest numbers shoot up the budget. Weddings are big here, and fun too – you’ll get to see. Usually, if one or both of the couple’s parents are wealthy, they take over the planning and entire bill.
>Are they asking you for any part of the money for this traditional wedding? If not, why not just let them, and you focus on planning the white wedding there in Canada.
Finally, my advice is to keep calm and prepare to enjoy your bi, Lagos-style wedding, if your in-laws are paying for the entire expenses.

Hi Ma,
Thanks so much.i and my Hubby have 400,000 for our wedding of at most 100 guest, and we don,t know how to plan it to achieve that and we want to rent a garden for it.
Hello Chinny, welcome. Let’s see about your N400k wedding budget for 100 guests.
– That COULD, maybe work for you two IF you can get a caterer to supply a plate of food plus a drink for N400 per person/ guest (which totals at N400k). Is that even possible with the high cost of things? That’s assuming you have already bought your wedding gown and other wedding things, and assuming you have already paid the DJ, cake maker, hall decorator and every other wedding-day thing.
SEE OTHER WAYS TO SPEND N400k on your wedding:
-Go to the market with a notebook and price your wedding things. Visit caterers, decorators, MC and other wedding vendors to ask for their prices. Write down the prices, and come back home to calculate the totals.
–Copy and modify things on this wedding expenses (click).
-Reduce your wedding guest number, so that you’ll have some change/ coins left for other wedding expenses.
Weddings these days are not about inviting plenty people – invite less to save money and also make it a quality event. Hope that helps.
Hi ma’am. Thank you so much for this insight. I wish I saw this before my trad. I’m planning my white wedding slated in 6-months time. I want to know where I can get good sample materials for my bridesmaids and also where I can get unique souvenirs at affordable and wholesale price. Also with the way venues are expensive here in Lagos, I’m scared of apportioning figures to d to-do items with 1m as our budget. Thank you very much ma’am
Hello Ugy, welcome here. Don’t worry, you’re not too late in finding our website – we have plenty tips, inspirational ideas and articles to help you better prepare for your white wedding.
– The market is the best place to get variety of materials suitable for bridesmaids’ dresses and even for a bride’s wedding wears. >Also, the market is the best place to source for souvenirs of any price-range. If you’re in Lagos, there are many big markets to source wedding things. If you’re not in Lagos, ask friends and family, or just visit the big markets around you – go to the fabric stores and look, also ask the sellers to point you to other fabric shops.
– On your N1m wedding budget: Don’t be scared to split-up the budget before spending. It’s similar to doing a shopping list before going to the market, which every woman does, whether it’s before going to buy food items or before going to buy other things. It’s the only way to be sure you won’t blow all the money on some things and forget others. Just do it. It guides you, and you can adjust monies allocation as you go along, because in some, you’ll eventually spend less than the budget, and more on some.
>The best way to split up your wedding budget is to first do a market scan, to price things and get an idea of what things cost, as well as mark down some shops to buy from. Take a notebook along to write down prices, shop addresses and also ask the sellers and wedding vendors to give you their complimentary/ business cards. >Once you do this, you can sit down to make a wedding shopping list (sort of, budget allocation).
Hope you get the gist.
Hi stella,
Will 500k be enough for a court and traditional wedding of 20 guests or less including the cost of eru iyawo?
Thanks.
Hi Temitope. Yes, it should be – BUT FIRST block out the cost of the Éru Iyawo’, so that you know exactly how much you have left for the court wedding reception. The balance amount would give you an idea of what kind of food and number of menu options you can afford, as well as what to spend on outfits, photography and any other thing you desire.
I like that you are keeping your guest number (20) realistic. You should be able to make it work.
hello aunty Stella, God bless ur efforts . I and my boo are really planning to our white wedding Easter with 600k. and we plan to make it look nice but I need how I can get a proposal to send to his boss who wants yo assist.
Hello Onyinye, and thanks for the compliments. You don’t need a proposal for that, in my opinion. If the boss has expressed interest to assist in funding your wedding, all you need to do is for you two to visit him (be sure to take a gift along – like a wine or any nice thing) and let him know what and what you have done so far, how far you have gone in the preparations, and what and what is left to do or a list of what and what you would be happy to get support with (so he can choose and get back to you).
But if you prefer to do a proposal for that, that’s also fine – I do not have any tips for that. I think it’s a face-to-face thing, and that’s a respectful way to do so.
Please I need help I’m planning my traditional wedding and I have 400k for like 300 guest
Hello Tunde, 300 guests looks too plenty for N400k, considering that the cost of food items and most things seriously increased this year. Start with how much you need to feed 300 people (food and drinks) – let’s assume N1k per person, and that would come to N300k. Then you have N100k left for Photography, your Outfits and any other thing (assuming the venue would be free family compound), and that cooking would be done by your people.
I suggest that you consider reducing the number of guests from 300 to half or 100, so that you can have a QUALITY WEDDING, NOT QUANTITY.
Hope that helps you.
hi stella , please i need your help .i need a breakdown for wedding budget of 800k.how do have my dream wedding ?
Hi Vivian, you posted this question twice – I have replied you here (click to see)
Hi.. I am Franklin.. I have dated my girlfriend for about 11years with the whole struggle in Nigeria before we both were blessed by God by relocating to US and I would really love an astonishing kinda wedding for the whole wait.. My budget is about 6million naira for both traditional and white while also taking care of both mothers.. Please give me an insight on how to do something beyond the ordinary..
Hi Franklin, congrats on deciding to make the big move from relationship to marriage.
For that budget, I would advice that you first get a wedding planner. Also, having a good wedding planner would help you actualize the kind of ASTONISHING and BEYOND-THE-ORDINARY weddings (trad and white) that you both dream of. Most good wedding planners know how to extract the fantasies you and your bride have about the type of wedding you want, how things should look and feel on that day (from decor, ambiance, music, food, outfits, photography etc) and they would even polish things up to deliver a magical wedding. They will bring ideas from previous weddings they planned and will share them with you, to help you DESIGN YOUR DREAM WEDDING.
With a good planner, they would be the ones to get you the best wedding venues within your budget and taste that they have used with past clients, get you the best caterers, DJs and so on – and you would vet and choose. They also show you where to buy fabrics, aso-ebis, souvenirs and where to get tailors and more. They also have a way to get discounts from the vendors and venues – to your benefit. Part of those savings can go towards settling the planner’s fees, so that you have nothing to lose.
A wedding planner would work with your budget to deliver, and not add extra cost to your wedding.
Since, you are not in the country, this would be the best bet. AND you can always do video calls with them to be in sync with your wedding planning and status they have executed, up until the D-day.
You don’t have to be afraid to hire a planner, because they would always get your signoff on every aspect of your wedding. They won’t do what you did not say yes to.
So, I suggest that you start by hiring a good wedding planner for this task – and you will be sure of getting a magical wedding.
Hope that helps.
Thank you for these analysis,very helpful and would put them to work and would love to contact you when it’s getting close for your professional input. Thanks again I appreciate it.

Hi, I just volunteered to help a colleague plan her low budget wedding and I do no know how to charge her for my services. Pls help. Thank you
Hello Toyin, here are some tips:
Depends on the amount of work involved, usually guaged from the size or budget of the wedding. You may charge her a flat rate that will cover your costs and some comfortable change (profit) or a percentage of the total amount they plan to spend on the wedding (usually 10 to 20 percent). You may also use the percent charge as a guide to come up with a flat rate, so that your client does not have to know that you’re using the cost of their wedding as a base for charging.
Hope this tip helps.
Hello my name is biodun I want to know if I can have a wedding of 1000 guests with a 3million naira budget.. And the venue should be in Lagos.. Probably around ikeja
Hi Abiodun, sure you can with that amount, but a lot depends on the cost of your venue (as you know, Lagos venues can be costly, depending on the part of Lagos and the calibre of the venue).
My tip would be to first book your venue, or take out the venue cost, and work out a budget with the remaining amount. Food and drinks expenses are the biggest takers in any wedding, so I would say that you should see if the remaining amount can be enough for catering for 1000 guests. If not, I suggest that you trim down the number of guests to the quantity your catering budget can accommodate.
Hi i live in canada and im planning for my traditional wedding in december and me and my fiance have budgeted N4m for the trad, i need breakdown, the hall we both like is at 500k in eastern nigeria.but we are still going to price the hall down, we are expecting 300 to 400
Hello Chris, congrats on your upcoming wedding. Below are my ideas and tips you could use or tweak for planning a N4 million Naira wedding:
-N500k – Hall (which you already found), so you have N3.5m left
-N1.75m – Food and Drinks (Usually food and drinks cost about 50% of overall wedding budget; and that would be hald of your N3.5m = N1.75m. Break this down to your planned 400 guests and you’d get a budget of N4K+ per guest on food and drinks) .
– N1.75m (Spread this remaining money on the rest of wedding things like: video, photo, décor, DJ/ live band, MC, attire)
*Mind you, the above guide is just to help you target good use of your money pre-market-pricing, and know that you would eventually price things to be able to spread the money down to tiny details.
**The most worrisome parts are hall, food and drinks – once you take care of that, the rest is easy.
Hope the above tip helps you. All the best!
hello dear,
i’m a young man of 25 years, i want to know if 1.5 million for my traditional and white wedding will wow my guest, i’m looking at about 500 guest in my white wedding and about 200 guest in my traditional wedding.
Hello Michael, thanks for your inquiry. You’ve tried – N1.5m is a lot of money savings – e no easy. Here are my thoughts, to wow your guests:
1) If you split that budget, you could put something like N600k or N500k for the trad and the rest N900k or N1m towards the white.
2) WHITE WEDDING: Reduce the number of guests from 500 to a practical number, say about 200 or 250 or even less to wow them more. You know, cost of things have really gone up.

Hi Stella,
I am wondering if these are costs for small weddings in Lagos?
Thanks,
Hi Amy:
Yes, some of those weddings were in Lagos mainland area (not in high-brow Lagos). We included those sample budgets as a guide for our readers. Knowing that prices (especially event venue rents) vary from state to state, and also from LGA to LGA within the states, and inflation and seasons can cause pricing to change, we also taught how to make your own wedding budget from scratch – see it in this tutorial (click here==> https://naijaglamwedding.com/how-to-budget-nigerian-wedding/)
you’re a darling. keep doing what you do so well. Thank you so much
You’re welcome, Amaka. Thanks for your awesome feedback – we wish you the best Christmas ever!
