The Ghanaian Traditional Wedding Movie 2017 - History and Customs

[@chimakalu41]

3:41 These clan names under the Akan are new to me. Good information.

[@chimakalu41]

5:24 our Kokoko for igbos 🇳🇬 is called ibu mmanyi( wine carrying) -Where the groom comes with his Uncle's or the men in his family to the bride's house to meet the bride's father to declare his intentions to ask for the hand of the bride in marriage from her father With wine as a gift. The bride and her mother are usually not present just the men.

[@vanessadanso]

Aaawww thanks so much!!!

Hi Vanessa, can you do videos on naming children, funerals our customs..not just the Akan also the other tribes like the Ga's and Ewe's. I love these videos. It helps a lot of us in the diaspora know our customs..not all of our parents sit us down and teach us about our culture.

[@vanessadanso]

Hello hun, yes will surely place these topics on my "To-Do"-list😀

[@6598945]

@@vanessadanso I thought rings was a western tradition is there an alternative in traditional Ghanaian culture

[@6598945]

@@vanessadanso can you please do a video of traditional wedding clothes for the bride and groom

[@chimakalu41]

7:10 lol. The list for the groom. Igbos 🇳🇬 (my people) have that.

[@fayegolden8064]

[@AB-yj9kg]

Just found you last night and I love your videos. Global family we need to share this work especially to our children.

[@cbwavy]

This is awesome! Thank you for helping to educate us who may not have had a strong exposure to our culture

[@jessyb5796]

This video helped me so much while is was on my journey to marrying my now Ghanaian husband! I love how you give so much history too! Everything about your channel is unique and I love it! Keep up the good work!

[@YesItsFoxxyy]

If you don’t mind sharing, how traditional was your wedding?

[@charmainejera8054]

I am very grateful for this video, I have searched through so many video's, this has helped soo much, thank you

[@vanessadanso]

You are very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it 🥰

[@lindajohnson1873]

You look gorgeous, and so regal, my Sister. Many thanks for your willingness to educate us.

[@Vlindertjeab]

My sister God bless you!! I needed thisss!!!!! I will surely have a Ghanian wedding..

[@lindajohnson1873]

Absolutely beautiful video!!! I am so glad that you explained things so clearly. Sadly, some Westerners have so many negative misconceptions about Ghanaian (and other non-Western weddings). They also misconstrue the significance of the bride price, and they think that marriages won’t be blessed if they don’t happen in a church.

[@ahoufe_jay]

I really love this! Thank you for explaining in depth what the Ghanaian traditional marriage is all about.

[@nanayaadarko9796]

Thank you, for making this! We all need to learn.

[@Shzd2311]
