How I came up with all the different kinds of meals is as a result of the traditional marriage that happened few days ago in one of the villages in Ibiono Local Government Area in Akwa Ibom State.

The wedding was a parlour tm and much people were not seen cos of that, it actually saves money especially if the couple would want to go for court wedding and white wedding.

We went to the market and met people selling and buying so we bought the necessary things we needed.

I was there to help out with few things and I also used that opportunity to learn how things are being done so that when mine will come, I'll not be like stranger.
