The founder and leader of Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro has advocated against extravagant white weddings.
According to Kofi Oduro, the expenditure on white weddings after traditional ceremonies is not prudent, as the funds could be utilized to support livelihood-enhancing projects instead.
The celebrity man of God said the escalating costs associated with marriage ceremonies have dissuaded many men from marriage.
He advised single men and women to opt for traditional weddings to save their money rather than squandering it on additional extravagant ceremonies.
“I don’t believe in that white wedding. Extravagant ceremonies with numerous bridesmaids and flower girls incur unnecessary debt. Regardless of one’s wealth, it’s an imprudent use of resources. Now, after being married for 25 years, it may be appropriate to celebrate with a lavish wedding anniversary, but not when starting in life.” He expressed his stance against lavish white weddings
The outspoken Prophet urged couples to use the money for the white wedding as deposits for land or housing investments.
Prophet Oduro delivered this message during a sermon to his congregation.
