How to Plan Your Wedding on PartyVerse

If you've ever been around a Nigerian bride planning her wedding, you already know the night before the big day is never peaceful.

You'd think she's crying tears of joy - you know, love, forever, and all that mushy stuff. 😂

But no. Those tears are tears of being stressed out.

Because somehow, her parents just managed to invite 150 extra guests, the decorator is calling to say they haven't started setting up, and she just realized the makeup artist she trusted with her life now has two other brides that same morning.

At this point, everyone that is meant to be helping is assembling like the Avengers to ruin the big day. 😭

Weddings in Nigeria are not for the weak. Between family expectations, guest list drama, and vendors who think "I'm on my way" means "I haven't left my house," planning a wedding can humble even the calmest bride, groom, or planner.

That's why PartyVerse is so important - to help you plan, stay in sync with everyone, and stay sane.

How to Plan Your Wedding Without Losing Your Mind (PartyVerse Edition)

Step 1: Create Your Event

Start from the basics - set up your wedding on PartyVerse.

Add your event name (no pressure, "Feyi Weds Tunde" still slaps), date, and location. You can even add your planner or bridal squad as co-hosts so everyone stays in sync.

Because let's be honest, if your mum, planner, and bridesmaids are not on the same page, you're one "who changed the tablecloth colour?" away from chaos.

Step 2: Set Your Budget (and Protect It With Your Life)

This is where the real stress begins. Between aso-ebi, décor, catering, and photography, small "extras" can turn your budget into a prayer point.

With PartyVerse, you can create a clear wedding budget, list what's needed, and even generate a virtual account for contributions. Everyone can see what's been paid and what's pending.

No more chasing people with reminders. Transparency and peace of mind, in one place.

Step 3: Assign Tasks Before People Disappear

You'll be surprised how fast bridesmaids and groomsmen can vanish when it's time to work. 😭

Use the PartyVerse task tracker to assign roles - who's picking up souvenirs, who's managing vendors, who's in charge of drinks. That way, nobody can claim they "didn't know."

Step 4: Find and Manage Vendors

Vendors can make or break your wedding. One minute they're promising heaven, the next they've gone ghost.

On PartyVerse, you can browse and book vetted vendors - from decorators to photographers - all in one place. You'll know who's confirmed, who's been paid, and who needs a gentle reminder (read: small threat).

Step 5: Sell Aso-Ebi Stress-Free

Every Nigerian wedding has that one phrase: "Please buy aso-ebi to support us."

But tracking who's paid and who's still promising? Headache.

With PartyVerse, you can sell aso-ebi and event tickets directly on your event page. Guests pay through the app, and you can view all transactions in real-time.

No more screenshots or fake alerts - just vibes and verified payments.

Step 6: Create Your Wishlist and Gift Registry

Now let's talk about gifts - because what's a wedding without that? 🎁

With PartyVerse, you can create a wishlist or gift registry for anything you actually need (not 12 blenders and 8 wall clocks).

List items you want — from home appliances to honeymoon funds — and your guests can send them directly.

And for all your big uncles and aunties who "don't like apps," there's still no excuse. PartyVerse gives you a dedicated account number for your wedding. They can send money straight into your Party Purse, where it's safely tracked and neatly organized.

No more "we'll settle you after the wedding" stories. 😂

Step 7: Collect Memories 🫶🏽

After all the wahala, this is the sweetest part.

PartyVerse lets you and your guests upload photos and videos to a shared Memories Feed.

You'll see everything — from the bride's first dance to Uncle Kunle's legendary zanku — all in one place. Later, when life gets serious again, you can scroll through and relive that one day everything came together (mostly).

Step 8: Enjoy Your Day (You Earned It)

At this point, the best thing you can do is breathe and dance like rent is due. You've planned, budgeted, delegated, and secured your vendors — now it's time to live in the moment.

Because with PartyVerse, you don't just plan your wedding — you preserve it.
