In todays world not every Zambian woman dreams of a fairy tale white wedding, some opt for a simple registry wedding while others may go for a traditional modern wedding, all depending upon their budget but they all agree on one thing which is that they all hope to have a perfect wedding which will go according to plan with no stress or drama. unfortunately real life doesn’t always go that way and there is always bound to be something that may go wrong. Here are 5 things most brides cannot stand to see or experience on their special day.

The EX or exes.

A lot of women are quite aware of the fact that their husband to be has a history with women(except you are his first and only love) but they sure don’t want their ex or  exes hovering around on their wedding day. It is seen as totally disrespectful so regardless of how platonic you are with your ex, it is best to keep them away on your wedding day. This also applies to the Bride’s exes because they don’t want some other guy  disrupting their glow on their wedding day.

Uninvited Guest.

Zambian weddings tend to be more or less a family affair but according to a lot of brides who have  wed in the past, they revealed that they didn’t like seeing a guest or two that were not invited to their wedding. its an emotional day for them and they don’t want to get lost looking at strange faces dancing around them

so you have to keep it simple and make sure that there is a guest list that involves only the people she and her Groom wants to see at their wedding.

Terrible Weather.

Unlike the United Kingdom which has an unpredictable  weather which may go from hot to cold or rain and snow at the same time, Zambian brides have the same weather pattern through out the year making it easier to plan their weddings around the time when the weather is nice and warm thus avoiding very hot weather or rainy weather.

Lateness.

The word “late” is one word no Zambian bride wants to hear and these involve almost related to their wedding like the photographer, cake delivery, the Groom and make up artist. because it drives them crazy on a whole new level and you don’t want a crazy Zambian bride and the groom must never be late even if he is fighting all the Avengers.( trust me, I know).

Unnecessary Drama.

A classic Zambian wedding is already a drama on its own so no bride wants any other unnecessary drama that will make their wedding a circus especially when it takes attention away from them. so its imperative that the  wedding planner, Matron or members of the wedding committee and every other person involved in their wedding keeps it simple and beams all the spotlight on the bride

conclusion: 

Getting married is a big deal and if you can keep these things away, then you will have a beautiful looking Zambian bride with a smile on her face before or after she says I do.
