When the couple decide they want to get marry, the girl has to inform her family/parents first. The guy's family has to send a written letter to the girl's family informing them, the interest of making their daughter a wife. Next the girl's family invites the guy's family to their house to formally meet them and provide them with a list of materials needed in order to marry their daughter, these materials are called "bride price". In the list they are things such as some clothes for both the girl's parents, certain food and other materials for the girl's family and off course a sum of money. The guy's family will have to purchase the requested items and when they are ready, they go back to the girl's family with these items and the money, and have a party and invite people. At this point the girl is now traditionally married to the guy and they can have the green light from the parents to start planing the basic wedding which is also known as white dress wedding.
