Putting someone’s name and a message on a billboard for a birthday shoutout or a marriage proposal starts from as little as ₦50,000 and goes upward depending on the location, size, and how long you want it displayed.
Here is what it actually costs to put a birthday shoutout or a marriage proposal on a billboard in Nigeria, and everything you need to know before you book one.
How Much Does a Birthday Shoutout on a Billboard Cost?
A simple birthday shoutout, usually a name, a message, and a photo on a static billboard for a few days, starts from around ₦50,000 depending on the location and billboard size. If you want it on a busy road in Lagos or Abuja for maximum visibility? Expect to pay more, since premium locations always cost extra.
If you want something smaller and more targeted, like putting the message along the route your loved one actually drives through, lamppost advertising is a great budget option, and it is built for exactly this kind of short, personal campaign.
How Much Does a Billboard Marriage Proposal Cost?
A marriage proposal billboard typically starts from ₦50,000, and the final price depends on three things: the location, the design, and how long you want it up for. Most people keep it up for just a day or a few days, since the moment itself is what matters, not weeks of visibility.
For something unforgettable, a digital LED billboard lets your proposal message rotate in a high-traffic area, though this costs more than a static board. If budget is a bigger concern than scale, a well-placed static billboard on a road your partner uses regularly works just as well, and costs considerably less.
What Affects the Price
- Location: a billboard on a quiet local road costs far less than one on a busy expressway or city center
- Format: static billboards are cheaper than digital LED screens
- Duration: a single day costs less than a week, and a week costs less than a full month
- Design and printing: a custom design with photos adds a small cost on top of the billboard rental itself
How to Book One
Booking a billboard for a personal occasion works differently from a business campaign. You do not need a long-term contract or a big budget, just a clear idea of the message, the photo (if you want one), and the location that means something to both of you. You can browse available billboards in Lagos by area, or check the full guide to running a billboard campaign in Nigeria if you want to understand the full process before booking.
