He asserted that such practices amount to questioning God’s creation, labeling those who participate in them as foolish for displaying disbelief in the divine work.
Pastor Adeboye expressed his concern over the extravagant activities people engage in for weddings today.
He addressed these issues at the RCCG ministers’ conference during its National Convention on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
He lamented that traditional values have been abandoned, and people are no longer conservative or practical in their approach to marriage.
According to Pastor Adeboye: “It wasn’t so in the beginning. When you marry, you cut your coat according to your clothes.
“Some of you want to be like the people of the world. I can’t even imagine some of the things I see now.
“People spend hundreds of thousands of naira on ‘shoot out’ (photo shoot). And then on the day of the wedding, the girl put on all manner of decoration.

“Those who do make-up are those who do not believe God did a good job.
“When God created you, He did a great job, you are wonderful, perfectly made and you cannot find any other fellow like you, you are special.
“When you begin to paint, and you think you can improve on what God has already done, you are a fool. You can never improve on what God has done.”
