In my culture it's the woman's family that will pay for the food and the drinks during an introduction.

Same thing applies during the bride price negotiations and the wedding.. Because we do two weddings where I'm from.. one on Saturday which will happen at the bride's parents' place and the other on Sunday which will happen at the groom's parents' house.

Each families pay for their own food and drinks.

Interesting
Where is that?

DonBenny77:

During an introduction or let me say bride price negotiation and payment, the man will bring drinks, bring gift then carry his people down to his woman's house and then pay money for the wedding.

The question now is will he be the one to also pay for the food that the woman and her parents will cook when he and his people visit?

Will the man pay for the food or since he is coming as a visitor with his people.

na the woman family except them poor the man go wade in.but who marries a poor person these days.

Jennyclay:
The man is expected to send the lady money to take care of the food & drinks before his people arrive.

Seriously? First time his family is getting to know her family and it is him that pays?

Women indeed started scam in the world. Negodu o

It depends but the brides family mostly, groom can

The answer depends on Poor vs Rich.

If the bride family poor and man rich...man pays
If man's family poor and bride rich....bride pays
If brides family rich and man rich.....bride pays.

If both are poor....then may God help us!!

Depends on the Culture.

In Yoruba land (at least my part), the husband-to-be brings lists/gifts etc. while the wife-to-be hosts them.

All the events: Introduction, Traditional Wedding and White Wedding (if done) are done at the wife’s location or a location of her choosing.

Should be from the bride's family but some family are greedy .

a thread like this is a more reason to avoid broke wife and in-laws like covid.

a well to do bride family gives no room to billing you to entertain you and your guest

You should not expect a generalized approach here, families can decide to do it as they wish, especially in yoruba land where marriage burden can be unanimously shared & not placed on one family.

Stop asking silly questions. The man pays for everything once it involves a woman.

Biko, you broke men should stay away from marriage & relationship if you don't have money!!

If your father and brothers are not broke, they will know its courtesy to prepare food for their visitors.

What if rich men stays away from broke girls when it comes to marriage?

Men hve come to this life to suffer all in the name of marriage

If the bride's parents are well to do, they would happily take care of that, instead of bothering the groom again

But we know someone from your kind of background, you won't be a able to do anything on your own
The whole purpose of you getting married in the first place is to rescue your family from generational poverty

You have to host people coming to your house, it's common sense.

Madam keep your poor mentality out here and speak about your culture , how inlaw to be in your place re welcome or tradition re done at your place.

If I may ask how rich is your father by asking poor guys should stay off marriage n relationship ??
Nah pplz like you will carry bad characters n end up your marriage expecting half share of a man wealth wen Yu cannot afford a damn for yourself, in case you dunno most places bribe parents take incharge of entertainment during introduction meanwhile it is only de D-Day ( wedding n traditional wedding ) de groom sponsor everythings.

It is often the responsibility of the bride's family.
But it's better if the groom assist with funds or food items.

He will pay for it somehow unless the bride's family is wealthy. They may overlook it.

foolbuster:

Simple , now for de groom to sponsor for introduction ceremony depend on agreement that's if de bribe parents re not capable or de groom want to do it as all cost of his own wills

Yes. It's the man.

But it's a kind of complimentary. You will send money to the family and they will add it to what they already have.
But if the family is not flamboyant enough to cater for the food,the man can take full responsibility without anyone knowing.

Menhhh some of this genders reasoning is in a big mess. After marriage, they will still wanna carry their family problems hang on the husbands head.
Small thing they will just open mouth and call a guy broke because he refused to dance to their tune. Meanwhile the call might even be financial stable than her 3 brothers and father.
