TRANSLATION

Am here again like i usually do every Wednesday of the week. Greetings to everyone whom took their time to be on this show today. May you continue to be healthy.

Traditional wedding in Yoruba land is the topic for today, Please sit back and know a little about The Yoruba Traditional Wedding.

WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE TRADITIONAL WEDDING IN YORUBA LAND.

Wedding is something very important in the customs and practices of the Yoruba land, And it is a very important part of a persons life.

Traditional wedding in Yoruba is not something we should forget most especially nowadays that we have high rate of divorce and separation in marriage. What are those things that made the olden days traditional wedding last long? Could it be the process we use this days that contributed to the level of divorce? Find out here only if you read till the end.

Wedding in Yoruba land is not for couples alone but for both families(The man and the woman). The Yorubas believe that when a person is getting married, he/she is not actually getting married to the partner but to the family of the partner.

THE STEPS FOR THE YORUBA TRADITIONAL WEDDING.

STEP ONE: SEARCHING.

Searching in this context means; what the parent of the guy whom is due for marriage or the guy himself does on finding a woman who is beautiful, well behaved and from a good family for their son to marry or for himself to get married to.

STEP TWO: INVESTIGATION:

The guys parent will start series of investigation about the family the lady came from. This is to get some facts about the family maybe they have certain hidden secret or generational curse, a usual disease or ailment in the family, because some families may have history of madness, untimely death, epilepsy and so on, which is not a good thing. They will also investigate about the lady they are proposing for their son , if she is a kind of person that can come into their son's house, whether she is the patient type, or a hot tempered type, the neat one or a dirty type. Sometimes they seek the help of Ifa priest to help them ask Ifa if their union will be a good one, and to know if the lady is a person that will live long or be a fortunate person in their son's house and so on.

STEP THREE: THE MIDDLEMAN/CHAPERON

A middleman/chaperon is someone whom is very close to the lady or the guy, A person who is in between them for communicating to each other because during that period the couples will not have the opportunity to talk to themselves , they communicate with the help of the middleman, May be the guy's friend or the lady's close friend. This is the person who describe the guy to the lady explaining how her future husband looks, and disseminate information from one person to another, which helps all the steps go smoothly.

STEP FOUR: ACCEPTANCE.

At this stage, there's no more need for a middleman between the couples. the husband now know the wife and vice versa. This is where the lady will accept the guy as her husband without a ring( as a fiance), but the guy must pay ACCEPTANCE FEE to the lady for accepting his proposal.

STEP FIVE: INTRODUCTION

After the lady accept the guy as his future partner, the guy will now tell his own parent that he has found a beautiful flower in a particular house.. The father of the guy will start preparing to go visit the lady's parent to seek her hand in marriage. For the first visit, The groom's father will go with few family member to the bride's parent house very early on the chosen day. After the bride's father accept to give them his daughter, he then make it clear to them that he didn't give birth to the child alone (Because the believe then is that the child belong to the whole community). He then give them a fixed date for proper introduction where all the family member will be present.

The parent of the two parties will start calling and informing their family members about the introduction. It is during the introduction that all family gets to know themselves, it can be done in the morning or at dusk. The groom's family will bring a lot of gift for the introduction popularly known as Engagement Gifts.

Gifts like;

Honey, sugarcane and salt.
Kola nut and bitter kola.
Alligator pepper
Tubers of yam
Dowry(Main dowry for the wife and some other money for family members)
Jars of palm wine and drinks.

STEP SIX: WEDDING DAY

Wedding day as the name implies is the D-day, a very shiny and fun fill day depending on how wealthy both family is, there is always lots of food available and there are singers on the day to entertain the guests.

At dust on the same day, the bride's mother call her daughter to give her words of advice on how to behave in her husband house, the eldest person in the family, her father and mother then pray for her. After which her family and friends escort her to her new home.

Before she gets to her husband house, the husband have to leave the house because its an abomination for a newly wedded wife to meet her husband in the house, immediately she gets there before she go in, cool water will be pour on her leg so that she have comforts in her husband house, after that she will go to the eldest person in her husband's family for prayers from the person.

In the olden days, Yoruba gave a lot importance to marrying a virgin lady, on the wedding night, the husband must have sex with his wife just to be sure if her wife is still a virgin. If she isn't a virgin, her new husband may reject her and send her back to her parents, and her escorts will be the once to go break the news to her parent.

The groom's family will send some things to the bride's parent to signify that their daughter wasn't met a virgin, they send things like Half filled jar of palm wine, Empty match box etc. which will definitely be a disgrace to the bride's parent. But if the lady happens to be a virgin then it will be a pride for the bride's parent, and the groom's parent send them gifts for giving them a complete woman as a wife.

After the wedding day. What all the family members expect is for the wife to get pregnant and give birth after 9 months because having children in a marriage is very important in Yoruba land.

This is the Traditional wedding of the Yoruba land different from what we do today. And which is the cause and reason for last long wedding in the olden days and which reduces divorce rate.
