An integral part of the wedding ceremony has always been the ransom of the bride. This custom is the little that has been preserved from a true Russian wedding. Since this is only the beginning of such a bright day, the whole ransom process should be filled with jokes, fun and laughter, because it is he who will set the tone for the whole wedding. How interesting and fun to conduct a ransom, and what you need to know for this you need to know in advance, so you should prepare.
Witnesses are appointed responsible for the ransom of the wedding. In this fight for the bride, the newlyweds are divided into two teams, led by witnesses. The script is prepared in advance, only the bride and groom should not know him, so that it would be more interesting.
Buying the bride, the groom must go through many trials, spend even a little money, but all for the sake of his beloved. Everything will be used: old coins, sweets, and other little things. At the very end, when the groom achieved his goal and won the game, he takes the main prize - the bride and gives her a wedding bouquet, with which she should not be separated until the very end of the wedding, until he flies towards unmarried girlfriends.
It all starts with the arrival of the retinue from the groom. Beautifully decorated cars, and maybe even a carriage with horses, so that everything really reminds a fairy tale. The main task is to get into the bride's house. But on this way there is a very strong obstacle - bridesmaids, it is they who demand a ransom. And then there is room for imagination, what kind of tests the bride’s retinue will come up with, they will have to be overcome. The groom must be ready for everything, and therefore you need to tense up your memory and remember all the significant dates and events. Since they may ask about anything.
There is no limit to the cunning of bridesmaids , what kind of ransom for a wedding can they come up with? The most common task for the groom is a test of how well he knows his lover. For example, you can make a camomile, on the petals of which there will be different numbers associated with the bride. It can be anything: from her birthday to the last digit of the phone number. Giving an answer, the groom opens the petal; if he makes a mistake, he gives the money. You can also write numbers on the steps, and with each correct answer, the groom will come closer and closer to the bride.
A ransom for a wedding can also be conducted with such a test as finding a beloved among everyone else. The groom can be invited to find the imprint of the lips of a loved one or the pen among all the other prints. Find her slipper, but a search for underwear of your beloved will look more elaborate.
An original ransom for a wedding can be arranged if the bride lives in a multi-storey building, and the higher the better. The future husband, going up the stairs, must name what he will do around the house after the wedding, but if he skips the stairs, he must pay a fine.
You can also make a "hedgehog" by taking a large apple and sticking a lot of matches into it. Pulling out one match, the groom is obliged to speak affectionate words about his beloved, and a retinue will pay for passes.
You can check how strong the future husband is in many ways. For example, you can force him to squat, or hammer a nail into a plank, or take a mother-in-law in her arms. You can come up with many more options. His friends always come to the aid of the groom, but if they are powerless, a fine is levied.
Buying a bride from the groom, even at the finish line, can be a daunting task. In front of the doors, you can snap a few balls, inside of which there will be leaves with inscriptions. The groom must pierce the balls and get the leaves, on each of which will be written a ransom and only on one word "key", he will open the treasured door.
But there it was, the ransom for the wedding continues. The girlfriends were well prepared and built a wall of balloons, the groom, to get to the bride, can either bake the balls and thereby destroy the wall, or pay a decent ransom.
And it does not matter whether the future husband will pass the test or not, the main thing is love.
