Due to the challenging economy, he said that he had to do it within his financial ability. He said he was inspired by a Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Delta state Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, Ossai Ovie Succes, who said that people should not spend above their financial capacity for a wedding.

In another set of pictures, the couple wore red and white traditional outfits. While the man wore a white shirt and tied a red wrapper, his wife wore a red blouse, a red wrapper, and a red 'gele'. She also wore coral beads which complimented her attire.

Udu further encouraged others who are ready to settle down to do so without having to break the bank. However, some netizens were not convinced that Udu spent N50k for his wedding and they weighed the cost of his attire and other items that were involved in the wedding.
