Asoebi-weddings
Regardless of tribe or religion, the importance of Aso-Ebi to the average Nigerian socialite can’t be overemphasized.
Every bride or wedding guest hopes to slay, but the color of the fabric
can make or mar that agenda. This is why every bride needs to be updated
with the trends so, all your guests can come in with an amazing look.
Therefore, choosing the best Aso-Ebi design/fabric for your event is
very important as you don’t want anyone at your wedding to be badly
dressed. There are things needed to be considered when choosing an
Aso-Ebi for your ‘big day’.
1. Wedding Theme
The theme of your wedding determines the way everyone looks that day.
You need to consider the theme when picking your Aso-Ebi. Ensure that
you’re sure of the availability of a particular color in the market
before choosing it as your wedding theme.
2. Colour
After deciding on the theme, you need to
pick a color that works with the theme of your wedding. You also need to
consider the trend when picking a color. There are colors in vogue,
there are some that shouldn’t be worn during certain seasons. Therefore,
you have to know the colors that blend and match your style. Try not to
insert too many colors into your Aso-Ebi combination. You should
probably leave it at a maximum of three.
3. Tradition
This is a very key factor when choosing Aso-Ebi for your big day. Your
culture and ethnic group will determine the nature of Aso-Ebi to choose.
You can consult an elder in your family to give good advice on the
right materials to choose from. Or better still get a stylist that would
help with picking the right fabric that relates to your tradition.
4. Quality of the fabric
To make your wedding rich and spectacular,
choose a fabric that the guests will appreciate and value. Try as much
as possible to present your well-wishers with something that will stand
the test of time with reasonable consideration given to the price of
what they’ve purchased. Nobody will buy your Aso-Ebi if it’s quality is
nothing to write about. Hence, opt for quality!
5. Cost
The most expensive fabrics are often claimed to be of the best quality,
but the possibility of getting swindled often exists. Getting value for
your money is a matter of knowing good quality fabric or getting your
fabric from a reliable source. You wouldn’t want to get a cheap fabric
that no one would want to have in their wardrobe, neither would you want
to get high-priced materials that most attendees can’t afford. Set your
standard, as this still remains your wedding and no one else’s, but be
considerate.
