ASOEBI LACE STYLES # 3: MOST INTERESTING IN 2021AOEBI LACE GOWN DRESSES FOR WEDDINGS
For the most important days in a lady's life, the latest African fashion is at its best.In African weddings, it's uncommon to see a bride wear their wedding gowns throughout the ceremony.
These brides usually have another gorgeous outfit that can be spotted on them at the reception. Some people call it the reception dress, but we fashionistas call it the bride's second-look.
Some brides go the extra mile to ensure their success at the second-look doesn't end there. A third or fourth look can spring up out of the blue. Just be sure to keep an eye on the bride, which no one does as the reception is usually full of activities.
That's when the bride's Asoebi girls usher her out of the event grounds or sometimes to the next door for the next stunning look that's always close in design to her first look.
Most of the time, the men in the room, except for the groom, wouldn't notice the difference, and this can be debatable amongst guests.
It's the best time for her third look. It's that moment when you're distracted, a magician can perform his best stunt ever. Well, our beautiful African brides are no magicians, but they sure know how to vanish from their own wedding receptions and reappear just to wow us.
I once witnessed a husband at a reception asking his wife if she knew the bride was older than she yet prettier than she. The wife's reply: my dear, please come again, I was busy watching the groom win his waist. You can tell he's a strong guy. The husband felt insulted and asked her to either render an apology or leave their home.
In African weddings, nothing is scripted. Everything, including the drinks, is in its natural form. The guests are in a whole mood of their own, unless you are looking for motionless people at your reception.
African weddings will either have less food or a shortage of drinks due to the fact that each invited member on both sides of the celebrant's family will either invite two more people of their own to the wedding without the knowledge of the bride and groom and therefore their budgeted small chops, food, drinks and souvenirs will never be enough for the invited guests.
Trust these family members to join their invited guests to complain about not being served when they come for the wedding. If you're planning a wedding and it's strictly by invitation, you should know fully well that the rumor in town about your wedding is either that your husband is cheap or that you, the woman, are paying for your own wedding and the close friends and family are all you can afford.
As we know, it's never been told of a time when a woman in Africa pays for her own dowry. The pressure alone can make you open the gate once and for all, and later end up indebted. We advise that you stick to your budget and ask that they only invite one person.
Weddings in Africa are a whole drama and need no introduction. We are Africans and our tradition is what makes us who we are. We are proudly Africans.
These styles are absolutely gorgeous.
