DID YOU KNOW THAT KUKYALA (FIRST VISIT) IS NOT A MARRIAGE ?.

#we_inform_the_uninformed .

After eight years of dating, Abraham finally went to Anita's home to meet her parents and officially ask for Anita's hand in marriage. It was a beautiful, glamorous event with over 500 guests. Because of how long Anita had wanted this, she used all the best service providers in Kampala to ensure everything went right. On the night of her kukyala, she changed her username on all her social media platforms to "Mrs Seguya"- Abraham's last name. She has even been throwing it in her friend Rita's face how she finally has a husband, and Rita is still single and searching. Rita got tired of Anita and told her that she was technically not married and needed to relax because they were both single according to the law. Anita is convinced that Rita is just jealous and wants to know if a kukyala is legally recognised as a marriage.

WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

By law, Kukyala is not marriage, even if your 'deco' was 50 million or you invited the whole district to attend.

Kukyala is a Luganda word which means "to visit" the home of the woman's parents to show your intention to marry their 'daughter'. At this function, you are supposed to request a date for you to come for the 'introduction' ceremony (which is the marriage, introduce the bride and groom to each other's families, and seek the blessing of their families.

The Kukyala ceremony allows the families to assess each other and determine if they are a suitable match for their daughters. Different communities have a different form of 'first visit', and none of it is marriage.

So before you overspend on your kukyala, remember that it is not a legally recognised marriage.
