Nigerian & African weddings in Canada

Nigerian & African weddings in Canada

Many Nigerian & African families in Canada plan weddings that cross borders. Some hold every event in Canada. Others hold the traditional wedding back home & a reception in Canada, or fly everyone home for the whole celebration.

Wherever your events are, a wedding website gives both families one link for the invitation, RSVP, entry passes, livestream, digital spraying & your cash & gift registry. It works the same on a phone in Toronto, Calgary, Montréal, Lagos or Accra.

What works from where you live

• Invitation & RSVP. Every event on one invitation, with the local time for each one. See online invitation & RSVP.
• Entry passes & check-in. Approved guests get a personal code by SMS & WhatsApp. See entry passes.
• Livestream. Family who cannot travel watch on your website & chat. Our livestream crew & drone filming are for weddings in Nigeria. For a wedding anywhere else, message us on WhatsApp & we will talk through your options.
• Digital spraying & cash gifts. Guests in Toronto or Calgary can spray you in naira or send a cash gift from your cash & gift registry.
• Photos & messages. Everyone uploads photos to one gallery & leaves messages on your Wall of Love.

Helpful things to know

• Prices are in naira. You pay online through our secure payment provider or on WhatsApp. Ask us on WhatsApp if you have questions about paying from abroad.
• Printed items. Wedding Branding is printed in Nigeria & sent to the address you give us. If your address is outside Nigeria, ask us about delivery when you request a quote.
• Demos. Demo times are in Nigerian time, on a WhatsApp video call or a video call link.
• Elders & languages. With the bespoke package, guests can read your website in a supported language & save it like an app.

Time zones & French

Canada is behind Nigeria: Toronto is five or six hours behind Lagos, depending on the time of year, & the west is further behind. Write each event time with its time zone.

If some guests prefer French, the bespoke package can show your website in a supported language. Ask us which languages are available. Read planning a Nigerian or African wedding from the US or Canada.
