“People are preparing weddings with budgets of money they’ve never even had in their pockets.” –Moise Nkundabarashi(@Moisenkunda ) President of the Rwanda Bar Association (@Rwanda_Bar ) Are we spending too much preparing for the wedding and not enough preparing for the marriage? Moise Nkundabarashi argues that couples need to have serious conversations about finances, property, matrimonial regimes and the kind of family they want to build — long before the wedding day. Because marriage can’t just be about that Saturday. 📺 Watch the full episode on YouTube youtu.be/qwEr0pS0rxw?si=-FJI…
