TRADITIONAL WEDDING
An Igbo traditional wedding, known as Igba Nkwu (wine-carrying ceremony), is a vibrant and culturally rich event that celebrates the union of two families. It involves several rituals, with the bride symbolically searching for her groom in the presence of family, friends, and well-wishers. Once she identifies him, she offers him a cup of palm wine, signifying acceptance. The ceremony is filled with music, dance, colorful traditional attire, and a display of gifts exchanged between the families, emphasizing respect, community, and the importance of family in marriage.
