Watch This Ijaw Bride Light Up After Her Groom Performs The Wedding Rites

Published on

Traditional wedding rites also come with some fun. The Ijaw culture has a very interesting, peculiar one that always steals the show, beautifully showcased in today’s video.

According to tradition, the bride does not smile until she’s appeased generously by her groom, and this stunning bride absolutely stood on business. Standing and sitting regally under her stylish umbrella, she waited patiently as the groom sprayed her different currencies, unfazed, not budging, just doing her part diligently. She even asked for money as he sprayed her, a bride who knows what she wants! Alas, she broke into a beautiful smile, appeased and joyful. It’s such a lighthearted expression of tradition, hilarious and sweet, and we absolutely love it. 🤭
