People say that attending a Nigerian wedding is one of the things you should do before you die and we at African Things can’t help but agree with them. Nigerian weddings are so colourful and filled with so many amazing bits of the various cultures present.
One of the highlights of attending a Nigerian wedding is the souvenirs you get to take home with you.
Here are a few Nigerian wedding souvenir ideas that would definitely spark conversation and make your event unforgettable:
1. Carry-on Bags
You can gift your guests a bag that can have your name and that of your spouse printed on it. It can also be designed with something unique if you don’t want your names very conspicuous.
2. Decorated Bottle Openers
This is a nice and very portable souvenir gift. It can serve as a drink opener but can also serve as an ornament for decorating the fridge etc when not in use.
3. Notebooks and Jotters
Everybody uses notebooks for to-do lists, office notes, meeting notes etc. Some people also collect beautiful and eclectic notebooks as a hobby. These can come with a special message or just be plain. You can always get very unique designs from us.
4. Place Mats
Giving out table or place mats is one of the unique ways to promote your party and still have your guests fondly remember it. It will be very indelible in their minds.
5. Tissue Holders
A unique tissue holder would be a very appreciated wedding souvenir. Not only would it be useful, it would also be a sort of art piece for your guest.
6. Ankara Designed Items
Any items designed with Ankara are a great wedding gift idea because Nigerians don’t joke with Ankara. Things like shirts and dresses are available at a very affordable price range.
7. Haircare Kits
Hair kits as wedding souvenirs will definitely be valuable to your guest in the long run. It is a thoughtful gift that speaks volumes about you and your relationship with them.
8. Tie and Cufflink Set
This would be the perfect gift for a guest who wears suits often. It’ll be even more appreciated if they are tired of wearing the same tie every day and want some variety.
9. Backpacks
Backpacks as wedding souvenir for guests is a brilliant idea! Guests at your wedding would be thrilled to take home your personalized gift because they’ll likely reuse them and your contribution will help enrich their lives on many levels.
10. Hand fans
These hand fans are an ideal gift to give guests at your Nigerian wedding. You could have a message like “thanks for coming” or something else branded on them. They make for lovely keepsakes that guests can take home.
11. Phone cases/pouches
Almost everyone is proactive when it comes to protecting their mobile devices and this is where cases and pouches come in. A protective case in African print would definitely be a well-appreciated souvenir gift at a Nigerian wedding.
