How much to charge guests for aso ebi
Aso ebi should not make the celebrant poorer, and it should not feel like a business to guests. Here is how to set a fair price.

Aso ebi etiquette
Do not feel obliged
Guests are welcome without aso ebi. A kind celebrant says so.
Pay on time
Late payment means late fabric for everyone in your group.
Collect early
Collect five days before, so there is time for any adjustment.
Gele booking
Book gele tying for the morning; the queue grows fast after 9am.
