“₦80m Is Too Small For Wedding Of 300 Guests” — Influencer Simi Sanya

Influencer Simi Sanya has sparked conversations online after revealing that a budget of ₦80 million is “small” for anyone planning a big wedding.

Speaking during an interview, Simi was asked how much someone should budget for a lavish wedding.

Referencing a previous discussion where someone mentioned spending ₦80 million for about 300 guests, she agreed that while it may sound like a huge amount, it is actually not much for a grand celebration.

When the interviewer asked, “₦80 million, is it too small?” Simi replied, “It’s small oo.”

She went on to explain that the total cost of a wedding depends on several factors, including the venue, decoration, catering, and the couple’s personal preferences.

Simi revealed that her traditional wedding was held on Lagos Island, while her white wedding took place on the mainland, a decision she said helped them save money on venue costs.

According to her, hall rental prices on the Island are significantly more expensive than those on the mainland, although decoration remains costly regardless of the location.

She advised intending couples who want to cut costs to consider holding their weddings on the mainland or in Ikorodu.

“If you are choosing to do your wedding on the island, just start budgeting ₦10 million and above for hall.”

Speaking on catering, Simi said couples can choose to pay per plate if they want to reduce expenses, but that was not the approach she took.

“Me, I didn’t do that. I wanted people to eat, be filled and be merry.”

She added that every wedding is different and ultimately depends on what the couple is willing to spend, noting that décor alone can also cost around ₦5 million.

When asked what she would have done if her husband wasn’t willing to give her the wedding of her dreams, Simi smiled and replied:

“He loves me, so he wants my dream wedding. Anything that makes me happy.”
