Everything you should know about one of the most glorious moments in the life of every person. You will learn about hilarious tamada, ingenius cameramen, old russian wedding traditions and crazy wedding feasts.
On the morning of the sacred day a groom with his closest friends solemnly drives to the house of his fiancee on a bizzare decorated car. It can be a ridiculously long rented limo, old soviet car or even a bus or a truck. The point is it should be decorated with flowers, ribbons, creepy Аnnabel style dolls, pigeons and baloons at the same time, the more you cling to your car the better.
The main goal of the passengers of this "wedding train" is to redeem a bride from her parents and it's not so easy.

Tamada is a kind of entertainer or stand up comedian who knows everything about wedding and human nature, every old joke, funny contests and an endless row of synonyms for human privates and sexual intercourse. Tamada is the first person who greets the groom who is always frightened by her power and knowledge.
To reedem and reach the bride one should pass nine circles of hell (the number of circles depends on the floor on which the bride lives) and to answer different tough questions from the tamada.
Guests can also "steal" the bride and the groom needs to find her and again pay for his beloved.
After all the trials and tribulations from the wicked mind of the tamada the couple goes to a register office and this is always the most boring part. Some dignified lady over 50 with an enormously big hairstyle says a few words about "two souls on the road of love" and "the loveship entering the harbour of family values", then suggests to exchange rings and to kiss each other. But sometimes registration can be enteresting and funny. For example you can dress up like zombies and say "Braaaiiiins" instead of "Yes, I do".
Then newlyweds fall into the claws of a photographer, who is the second important person on the wedding after the tamada. While guests and relatives warm up and prepare themselves for the party in a restaurant, a photographer does the best he can. Here are a few examples of the cameramen fantasy.
Before husband and wife get to the restaurant with the warmed up guests they must bite a bread. This is an old tradition according to which newlyweds should bite a big loaf of bread that their parents are holding. One who bites the biggest piece will be the head of the family.
Everything that happens afterwards cannot be described by words, but we can give you some hints of what russian wedding feast looks like:
