Ghana's second-largest city, with deep traditional wedding customs and a strong local wedding market.
Kumasi carries deep Ashanti cultural weight in how weddings are run, from the structure of the knocking ceremony to the pace and protocol of the traditional marriage rites. We plan Kumasi weddings with that structure built in from the first conversation, not adapted in afterward, which is the biggest difference between how we scope a Kumasi event and an Accra one.
Ashanti customary marriage rites have a specific order and set of roles — we plan around that structure rather than a generic Accra-style template.
Kumasi weddings often involve larger extended-family decision-making; we build in the extra planning time and communication that requires.
For UK and US-based families with Kumasi roots, we coordinate the Kumasi side of the wedding while you plan the reception abroad, if that's how the event is split.
Yes — Ashanti customary marriage rites have a specific order and set of family roles, and we build our Kumasi planning around that structure from the first conversation.
Yes, this is a common setup for us — we run the Kumasi side of the wedding while you or your family plan a separate reception abroad, if that's how the event is split.
Because extended-family decision-making is often more involved, we usually recommend starting Kumasi wedding planning a few months earlier than a comparable Accra event.
Share your date and rough guest numbers and we'll put together a plan, no matter where you're calling from.
