A church wedding is just an owambe – Reno Omokri.
You had a wedding in church. You did not have a marriage. What you did in church is not better than an owambe. It is not even necessary. A marriage is a family affair. That is why, in almost every country on Earth, marriage is under family law. Please assume I am lying age fact-check me.
No priest, pastor or reverend has ANY business with marriage. Once your family accepts the union, you are married. It is only the girl’s father that has authority to say, ‘I now pronounce you husband and wife’. Any church doing that is just an interloper. From there, you simply have to register it in a marriage registry.

A church marriage is just an uneconomical use of money. It is not unnecessary. The word church is even unknown to the original Scripture and Bible. I know that many of us, as Black people, are fond of reading one thing and understanding another. I am not saying that the word church is not in your English translation of the Bible. What I am telling you is that it is not in the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Koine Greek Scriptures and Bible.
The actual Koine Greek word used is Ekklesia, which simply means gathering.
The word church is a European invention. It is from their culture. It has NOTHING to do with Yeshua, who never entered a church, cathedral, basilica, abbey, or any similar edifice throughout His life on Earth.
Yeshua (Jesus) worshipped at a synagogue and attended a marriage ceremony at a house. Yeshua (Jesus) was invited as a guest. He was not an officiating priest. There is nothing like an officiating priest. Any priest who officiates at a wedding is serving his church, not God. Read it yourself in John 2:2, which says:
“Yeshua himself and his disciples were invited to the wedding banquet.”
Your African traditional marriage is acceptable. It is not evil. It is not heathen or uncivilised. Marriage is part of the Fifth Commandment, to “Honour thy father and thy mother”. You honour them by marrying in their house and under their authority.
That is why Scripture in Genesis 24:67 says:
“Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife.”
If your parents are dead, then you can marry in your own house, which is why Scripture says in 2 Samuel 11:27 that:
“David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife.”
Read Scripture and the Bible for yourself. Organised religion from Europe is not better than organised crime from the same Europe.
The Catholic, Anglican, and other European Churches have historically killed more people than the Italian and Sicilian Mafia. It is not even close.
But you will see their brainwashed, mind-controlled minions come under this post and regurgitate dogma (church doctrine) and philosophy in defence of those who programmed their minds.
