Traditionally, the night before the wedding, the bride and groom spend separately. Previously, the girls were that evening with their friends and relatives. In the modern preparation for the wedding, the bride devotes herself completely. She needs to prepare her wedding dress, get up early to meet the hairdresser. The guy, in turn, says goodbye to his single life rather violently and solemnly.
His friends come to the groom and always a witness. But do not forget and abuse alcoholic beverages, because then at his own wedding he will look unworthy and there will be questions to him. The groom with a witness will have to go to redeem his beloved. She is with her parents. Near the entrance doors, his sisters, girlfriends and a witness will meet him. They are waiting for a ransom for their beauty. As it can be sweets, all kinds of fruits, champagne and, of course, money.
The groom will be asked various comic questions, please sing songs. With all this he must cope, choosing the right words. In the bride's room, a girl and a grandmother dress up in white dresses. An apple hangs in front of the room. Here the friends begin to ask for a ransom for their beauty.
If it seems to them insufficient, then the groom gets a young bride. “Is this the bride?!”, - questions pour in to the groom. He replies that no, he will be older. Then they bring out his grandmother. "Is this the bride?" He says no, my fiancee is younger. Then his girlfriends tell him that for such an unprecedented luxury that he wants, you need to pay tribute and pass the test. The groom will have to eat an apple without hands and then he will get his beloved. As soon as the groom leaves the task behind, everyone enters the room. Splashing champagne, and all the guests are treated. This is the usual way, but you can also try the ransom of the bride in prose.
The script for the ransom of the bride in prose
Near the entrance of the groom meets the witness and says the words:
"Oh, you, gentlemen,
How long have you been driving here?
And what kind of wind
Brought you to us, friends?
(listen to the answer).
Then the girlfriends and the bride's witness continue the ransom, the following words are pronounced:
“Dear groom and his friends!
You are greeted by beautiful girlfriends,
To find our bride for you,
You have a lot to go through.
Get up slowly
Sing us songs, so that loudly,
Yes, on every step you
Put down 3 kopecks. 
The groom goes up the stairs, loudly sings songs that his bride knows, and does not forget to put a penny. After one of the relatives or bridesmaids pronounce the text:
“So that you can enter the bride,
You need to go through the door.
Drink all the water to the bottom.
And then the door will open.
A large bucket and a very small mug are placed. But the tasks do not end there, but only the most interesting begins. The songs begin.
“We have a bride - roses color,
There is no entrance to it without a ransom.
And for her we need
A bar of chocolate.
Here is the first installment. It is advisable to warn the groom about payment options in advance, so as not to get him into an unpleasant situation.
"And now, groom, look,
Do you see the big scarf?
How many circles on it - look
Let them all be gilded."
Here the groom is allowed to use sweets, or fruits, or money.
A cheerful song plays throughout the trials.
Next lyrics of the song:
"For the bride's figure,
We wish flowers for a truck!
The witness must give the flowers.
For every hair
Throw an orange in the bucket."
The groom needs to fill the bucket with oranges as much as possible.
“And for sponges scarlet color,
Give me a bag of candy."
"For a beautiful elegant dress,
Give grape wine.
The Witness fills everyone's glasses.
"For an even gait
Give us vodka.
For veils, the color is transparent -
We would like bottles of cognac.
The wedding is in full swing.
“(The name of the beloved) will not be given so easily,
If you want to get a bride, We need to pay a ransom.
We want to know from you in detail
For whom are we going to give it away?
Come on, dear good friends,
Praise, appreciate the groom!
The witness and friends of the groom willingly praise him.
“And now let him shine:
Where, when (the name of the beloved) met,
And noticed among the rest?
How she was dressed
What did you ask her at the same time?
(Answer).
"And now the second question,
It's more difficult than the first one.
Do you know everything about the bride
And about the mother-in-law - guess?
"Well, answer without delay,
When is the mother-in-law's birthday?
In the event that there is no answer, a fine is paid in cash.
Questions: Tell me, what color are your mother-in-law's eyes? The witness holds a camomile in her hands, on which there are still many questions. No response, fine.
For example, questions:
1. What was the weather like when you first met?
2. 07/20/2000 - what is it?
3. What kind of films does he like?
4. The size of the shoes of your beloved?
And many other questions you can think of.
“We see that you are dashing people
And besides, remote
And to prove it to us
You will have to dance here.
Hey, fiancé, let's dance, And rather start singing songs
The witness says:
"Heard the girls here,
About magic vodka
She is 40 degrees
Pour it for us then."
The witness fills everyone's glasses.
"For the bride-wife
- I ask for chocolate "Alyonushka".
Cut the thin thread
And the words you have to say
The word is not simple, but
Gentle, Affectionate, Golden.
We all want to hear
What will you call your beloved?
Here the groom needs to say aloud the words that he calls his betrothed affectionately. Then the groom is allowed to see the bride.
Getting a loved one at the ransom and fees at the registry office
Relatives, matchmakers, the bridesmaid and bridesmaids take out everything that they purchased at the wedding. Everyone is drinking and having fun. The witness pronounces the first toast at the wedding for the long and happy life of the young.
Everyone sits down in cars and goes to the registry office to funny songs. During registration at the wedding, a motorcade of dressed-up cars stands near the entrance. By tradition, the groom's relatives are on the right side, and the bride's relatives are on the left. But now the traditions are no longer so respected. But when you see newlyweds walking hand in hand, it looks very cute.
Celebration of the wedding ceremony
Newlyweds do not have to worry about registering for their wedding, as they only need to answer a short "yes".
At registration, you can order musical accompaniment to hear your favorite songs during the celebration.
After the solemn part, congratulations begin. And the first to take the right to speak is the woman who performed the ceremony, then all the guests. Spouses accept words of congratulations from everyone who rejoices for them on this day. Those guests who cannot attend the wedding in the cafe give flowers.
A gift at a wedding should not be very expensive, but not cheap either. If you can't afford to give such a gift, it's best to carefully decline the invitation. Gifts can be given at your convenience. After all, not all guests are at the wedding until the end of the evening, many leave it earlier for personal reasons.
At the door of the house (if the house is multi-storey - at the entrance to the entrance), the groom and his friends are met by friends and guests of the bride.
Leading:
Hello gentlemen,
Where are you from and where?
If by - pass,
If to us - why, tell me.
The groom and his friends answer:
For the bride.
Leading:
For the bride. That's great.
We are waiting for you, our clear falcon.
Yes. We have a bride
Impossible to take your eyes off.
Young, slim, beautiful,
White-faced, marvelous to everyone.
But in order to achieve her hands,
You need to work hard.
After these words, the groom and his friends enter the door and see, oddly enough, steps.
Leading:
There are many tender words in the world,
And the bride deserves them.
You walk up the stairs
And call the bride affectionately.
The groom is offered the first test. He must climb the stairs (if the house is multi-storey - up to the first floor). On each step of the stairs, the groom somehow affectionately calls his betrothed. The task can be complicated by writing a letter on each step and inviting the groom to affectionately name his bride with this letter. If he cannot come up with anything for this letter, the witness and the rest of the groom's friends pay a ransom. After that, the groom moves on to the next step, and so on.
When the groom overcomes this obstacle, he is offered the following. In the hands of the bridesmaid is a chamomile. On each petal of this chamomile, memorable dates for the future newlyweds are recorded in advance. This may be the date the bride and groom met, and the hour of their first date, the size of the waist or the size of the bride's shoes, and even the age of the future mother-in-law.
Leading:
Here is a field chamomile,
Tear off the petal
Guess the number.
After these words, the groom tears off the chamomile petals one by one and guesses one or another memorable number. If he cannot guess what any figure is connected with, then he pays a ransom. As soon as the ransom amount suits the bride's guests, the groom tears off the next petal. The test ends when the chamomile is left without petals.
If the groom has completed this test with dignity, he is allowed to go further. (When the ransom takes place in a high-rise building, the groom is allowed to take the elevator to the bride's floor, or he must walk if the bride's friends are not happy with the ransom or the way the groom guessed memorable numbers).
The bridesmaid is standing at the bride's door holding a large sheet of paper in her hands. On this sheet, the bride and her bridesmaids leave imprints of their lips in advance.
Leading:
Here you can see those lips.
Guess or not
Where is your favorite trace?
The groom is looking for the imprint of his bride's lips. The task can be complicated by writing any amount under each print. In this case, for all incorrectly guessed lips, the groom or his friends pay the specified ransom. This test may be accompanied by playful reproaches. The competition continues until the groom guesses the lips of his betrothed.
After the task is completed, the facilitator suggests the following:
The door is closed on the way
You need to find the key to the door.
Serenade, song of love
You fulfill and pass.
The groom must sing a song. If he refuses, then friends help. If the friends also refuse, then a ransom is paid. Its amount should completely suit the guests of the bride.
When the given task is completed or the ransom is paid, the door opens and the groom finds himself in front of the next locked door.
Leading:
And the groom is not lame?
Come on, stomp your foot.
The groom stomps.
Leading:
Don't make people laugh
Sleep a gypsy for us.
If an accordion player is present at the wedding, then he performs a gypsy. If there is no accordion player, then the tape recording is turned on. The groom, to the laughter and jokes of the guests, dances a gypsy girl or pays a ransom.
Leading:
The beautiful bride loves fun
Dance not alone, but together with everyone!
The groom's friends and he himself perform the gypsy or pay a large ransom.
Leading:
For the bride-darling -
Champagne bottle.
For a beautiful wife -
Chocolate "Alyonushka".
For a long dress -
A bottle of wine.
So as not to go to someone else's cutie,
Come on, paper money.
The groom and his friends after these words pay a ransom, guests can jokingly shout: "You pay little, you see, you want to go to someone else's cutie", "Do not be stingy, come on more!" etc.
After the ransom is paid, the groom is offered the next task.
Leading:
In this bundle is the key to the door,
You manage to find him
If you took the wrong one - pay.
The groom is given a bunch of keys, from which he removes the keys one at a time and tries to open the door with one or another key. For every key that doesn't fit the door, the groom and his friends pay a ransom. The contest ends when the required key is found and the door is opened.
The door opens. The groom and his guests see a table that blocks the corridor.
Leading:
What is your bride's name
You write money.
How to write - show!
The groom is invited to write in money the full name of his bride. He lays it out with money on the table. This action is accompanied by jokes like "Write bigger!" etc. After the groom completes the task, the table is cleared.
Leading:
You paid generously
And he didn't talk about love.
So that no one doubts
You confess your love!
Shout out loud, don't melt
(name of the bride)! I love you!
The groom screams, and the guests appreciate. There may be exclamations: "Something is quiet!", "The bride does not hear anything!" etc. The groom yells a declaration of love until the guests are satisfied.
In front of the door of the room where the bride is, the groom sees a basin.
Leading:
Here. You see this pelvis.
Put in it now
Neither goat nor lamb
Not a bad pig.
For the bride, put
What does she need for her soul?
Of course, the groom will not be able to immediately guess what exactly should be put in the basin, and a comic situation will arise. But the test will last until the groom realizes that he himself must stand in the basin.
After the groom has passed this test, he sees that several ribbons are peeking out from under the door behind which the bride is located. In the room, the bride and her bridesmaids are tied to these ribbons by the finger. And for more fun, you can tie, for example, a neighbor of retirement age to some ribbon. If the groom pulls the ribbon and pulls out this very matryona - there will be laughter.
Leading:
Pull one ribbon
And stretch out your narrowed one.
If you pull out the wrong one,
Pay us money.
Or marry the one
What are you pulling.
The competition with laughter and jokes continues until the groom pulls his bride out. When he is wrong, the guests loudly ask for a ransom or tell the groom that he must marry the one who came out the door.
After the bride is finally guessed, the future newlyweds go hand in hand to the table, and then it turns out that the bride does not have one shoe.
Leading:
You are walking with your bride
How will you marry her?
I don't have one shoe
Find her, hero!
The groom is offered several shoe boxes. One of them contains the bride's shoe. For a laugh, you can put torn slippers, galoshes or felt boots in the rest of the boxes. For each incorrectly guessed box, the groom pays a ransom. The test lasts until the groom finds his narrowed shoe.
When the groom finally overcomes all the obstacles on the way to his happiness, the host says:
The test passed
You have reached the bride!
And so now
You take the bride to the registry office!
The future newlyweds go to the table, where they accept congratulations and wishes from the guests.
One of the most interesting actions at the wedding is the ransom of the bride. Its roots go back to the distant past. In the old days, this custom was taken more seriously than now, because the bride left her home forever and very often left with her husband to another village. That is why no one wanted to just part with the bride. The groom had to understand that he could not take the young wife to his house without making any effort. Often, the ransom was more like a whole performance with the groom and his witness in the lead roles. There were many obstacles on the way to the bridegroom's house. Very often the road was blocked by a log. For the groom, a lot of contests, riddles, tasks were invented. The ransom process has always been accompanied by an abundance of jokes and jokes in the direction of the groom. Having completed all the tasks, the groom could finally go to the bride's house. But even there surprises awaited him. Doors and windows were closed, of course, they were not allowed inside. The yard was bustling with children, from whom they also had to pay off. Here sweets and small coins were used. The groom was met by relatives and bridesmaids. They made riddles, arranged various competitions. After all the trials, the groom was escorted into the house and seated next to the bride. The feast began.
Nowadays, the ransom is more formal and serves more as entertainment for guests. Usually bridesmaids prepare the bride price. They come up with various questions and tasks for the groom. The witness can "bribe" the girlfriends with gifts, sweets, money or champagne. It is very important that this action does not drag on, but flies by in one breath. There are many options for bride price. They can be poetic, poetic, or they can look like a whole performance.
Tips for Brides
Do not invent impossible tasks for the groom, such as, for example, how to drink 3 liters of water in order to get the key, to drink vodka from a shoe so that he cannot get to the registry office, etc. Also, do not demand voluminous and unnecessary things (a huge bouquet for each girlfriend, a five-kilogram head of cheese, etc.). Having compiled the script for the ransom of the bride, do not forget to mark what needs to be prepared for the test of the groom, think over everything again and pass the list to the groom. Many do this - they prepare everything themselves and pass it on at the last moment through someone to the groom. Remember: this is not betrayal, but help. You want that after the ransom, when the groom gets to you, he still looked like a prince.
Advice for grooms
Dear suitors, the ransom may seem fun and interesting to you if you approach it with humor and ingenuity. If the bride provided a list of equipment for ransom, there is no need to discuss it and think: “Why did they need a liter of milk? I can treat everyone with milk later, at a banquet! Wrote - so it is necessary! If there is no list of necessary things, the groom must prepare the necessary arsenal himself.
. Cribs. Affectionate words, housework, dates and numbers can be safely prepared in the form of small prompts. Imagine the surprise and laughter when, before listing affectionate words, you take out a “spur-accordion” about two meters long!
Small change + scotch tape = the name of your beloved. At the ransom, they often require you to write the name of the bride from money. In advance at home, on a wide adhesive tape, glue the name of your beloved with a trifle, fix it on top with another layer. It's fun when a pre-prepared “name” is given to this request, you can also add: “Do you need a surname with a patronymic? I have! And date of birth!
Prepared poster: “There is no money and never will be! Contact tomorrow!
If you know exactly the location of the bride's lip print, you can safely play a joke: try on other prints without touching them with the words: “No! No, they don't fit!" And solemnly so smack the desired print. The big mistake of the groom's retinue is to help in this test. So the question arises: “How do they know the lips of the bride?”
The word "Verse" on a piece of paper. As soon as they ask you to read a verse, boldly take out a piece of paper and read: “VERSE!”
A prepared film for a serenade. When asked to sing something about love, take out the tape recorder with a cassette and turn it on.
Trick with money. At the request of "greens" they take out a bunch of dill, parsley or a head of cabbage. The requirement for the exact amount is carried out as follows - a piece of paper is taken out and, using a green felt-tip pen, the amount is written at the end with the $ sign.
Groom's outfit at the bride price
Money (fake, real, Soviet, funny with cartoons, more coins);
alcohol;
Sweets and various sweets, even bagels on a string will go into business;
Learn a couple of songs and poems about love, ditties will also come in handy;
Remember all the important dates in the life of the bride and her parents;
Look into the dictionary of synonyms - you will need a lot of affectionate and tender words.
What not to do at a bridesmaids' ransom
Many mistakes and misunderstandings happen during the ransom of the bride. Sometimes they are funny and ridiculous. - The most common mistake made by bridesmaids is to keep written sheets of poetry. It’s very ugly when girlfriends are ransoming, while they themselves buried themselves in the leaves and read monotonously. If you have not learned the verses, then do not try to repeat them or read them. It is better to speak in your own words, the main thing is to remember the ransom scenario. You can use little tricks: near each test site, put colorfully designed leaflets or bundles, where the tasks are listed on behalf of the bride: “Darling, I want you to call me affectionate words while passing this ladder.” Another way, more modern. Brides often regret not being able to see the ransom with their own eyes. Ask the videographer to broadcast the ransom on TV in advance. In this case, the bride herself will be able to lead the process. Call a friend on a mobile phone, turn on the speakerphone and go! If, nevertheless, the presenter has poems and leaflets, then let them not be simple notebooks, but leaflets in the form of hearts, flowers and multi-colored stars. - No need to get angry if the ransom suddenly went wrong. After all, the groom is not aware of the scenario, he can turn the course of events in the other direction. Don't despair, improvise better on the go! - If the time allotted for the ransom was not enough, try to quickly rebuild the scenario and reduce the ransom. - Do not demand from the groom what he definitely does not have. He did not bring a bottle of cola, do not drive his friends to the nearest store, because time is running!
Time for a bride price
The optimal time for redemption is 20-40 minutes. If it is less, then it may not be remembered at all, and if it is longer, then everyone can get bored.
Advice for brides: calculate the time so that before the ransom you are already fully prepared to leave for the registry office. Advice to grooms: come to the ransom without delay! We know the groom's trick - to arrive 20 minutes before departure to the registry office, so that they let them through to the bride without trials. Cheat, then offend the bridesmaids, and the bride herself - they were preparing! And vice versa - do not come an hour before the redemption. As long as the bride is not dressed, they will not let you in anyway. It is best to inform the bride about this when leaving and arrive on time.
If you decide to arrange a bride price, do not delay it too much, 10-15 minutes is the best option. When thinking over contests, think about whether your chosen one is able to complete this or that task (do not scoff at him too much so that the holiday is not spoiled by his bad mood). We offer a list of contests from which you can choose those that will please both you and the groom.
1. Different letters are written on the steps, the groom must go up the steps to say affectionate words to the bride, starting with this letter.

4. Several hearts are made (just for a flight of stairs), and the reason for the marriage is written on each: "by calculation", "by flight", etc. The inscription "for love" is placed on the topmost step. The groom must get to the top heart without stepping on the steps on which the wrong answers lie, without using the railing. The witness must guess to carry the groom upstairs in his arms.
5. Arrange daisies of two colors on the stairs. Stepped on the red one - say a kind word about the bride, stepped on the blue one - tell me how you will scold. If you don't want to scold, pay.

7. Papers are put into inflated balloons. On one of them - the inscription "key".

9. The groom is offered three glasses (with salty, sour and sweet water). With what face to drink - with such a bride to live.
10. The doors to the apartment and in the apartment are all closed. Each door has a task. The groom chooses the door behind which he thinks the bride is and answers the question. Answers correctly - the door opens, did not guess - choose another door or pay a ransom. At the same time, in any of the rooms there may be a person dressed as a bride, it is better if it is a man.
11. The groom must write the name of the bride on a tray or table with money.
12. The groom must identify the bride from children's photographs. Photos can be hung on threads, then the groom must jump up and kiss the photo of the bride.

25. The groom enters the bride's room - but she is without shoes! You need to guess which box this shoe is in (in the other boxes you can put slippers and a man's boot).
Bride price scenario 2. Classic
The ransom of the bride is prepared by the witness with her girlfriends. They should keep in mind that they are "selling" a girlfriend, but they should not demand a lot of money from the groom. It is better to hold a ransom in a playful way, make the groom and witnesses go through obstacles, show your mind and ingenuity. This should be done in such a way that it is fun and interesting for everyone.
To ransom the bride, the witness must prepare:
Three footprints, painted on one side with any color (only, of course, not black), and on the other side, write on one - "By calculation", on the second - "For love", on the third - "Out of need". These three footprints show the groom with the painted side up and he must choose.
"Hearts", painted in red, their number should correspond to the number of steps on the stairs. Stool. Taz. Three mugs of water. Sugar is diluted in one, salt in the second, citric acid in the third.
Witness:
Hello dear guests! Why did you complain to us?
Witness:
For the bride.
Witness:
Not a bride, but a queen, and such a craftswoman! We value the bride, we won’t just give it away! We need a ransom such that the price cannot be expressed: Three bottles of lemonade and two bars of chocolate, vodka, beer - all in a river, and a golden ring.
Witness (on the street):
So that the bride at the window does not get bored alone, you must shout to her from here about your love. Witness:
And now, little groom, you can't go anywhere: Tell us frankly why you are getting married. Here are three tracks in front of you, choose any one for yourself. (“For convenience”, “for love”, “for need” - the reason may not be liked, and this is played out.) How bad is the reason, is it possible to oversleep the groom? If you want to go up, pay off richer!
Witness (on the stairs):
How many hearts, so many affectionate words.
Witness:
We do not know the groom at all, and we want to know everything about him. Let the friend-witness slowly list the merits of the groom to us. If a friend does not name ten qualities in advance, there will be a complete turn from the threshold to the gate. Witness (on the stairs):
This ladder of songs: For each ladder - a song.
Witness:
We ask the groom to stand on a stool, now let's see - how is he dressed? Yes, dressed in fashion. And the jacket - not a hoodie, as if sewn in "Silhouette", just lovely, how it sits. A fashionable tailcoat, a watch with fire, even a tie with him. In general, we can be calm. In appearance, the groom is quite worthy.
Witness (on the stairs):
What do these numbers mean?
Witness:
For the beauty of the bride - dance, groom, on our pelvis. And you, witness, do not be shy, dance the swan dance for us.
Witness (at the apartment):
And now, dear groom, show us what kind of life you will have. Here are three mugs of water for you: One mug speaks of the sweet life (with sugar), the second - of the bitter (with salt), and the third - of the sour (with citric acid). Drink water from any mug, and by your face we will know what kind of life awaits you.
Witness (in the bride's apartment):
Well... (groom's name), it's yours, only I have the shoe. If you don’t find a shoe, you won’t take (name of the bride) to the registry office.
The groom redeems the shoe, goes into the room where the bride is sitting, gives flowers and shoes her.
Bride buyout completed!
On the way of the groom there is an obstacle - a ladder. Each rung of the ladder carries a test for the groom. He will be able to move from one step to another only when he answers the question asked. The questions asked can be very varied and unexpected. This is not a complete list of such questions. What else to ask the poor confused groom, your imagination and sense of humor will tell you.

If the groom does not know the correct answer to the question or answers not quite accurately, then he pays the ransom. The test ends only when the groom is successful, i.e. having answered questions or paid a ransom that will suit the bride's guests, he will overcome the last rung of the ladder.
POWER OF LOVE
For this test of the groom, you will need a pre-prepared wet towel. The host or one of the guests of the bride holds out this towel to the groom and says: “Tie the towel as tightly as you will love your future wife.” Of course, the groom will tighten the towel with all his might. The guests at this time support the groom so that he ties the towel as tightly as possible.
After that, the host, to the approving exclamations of the guests, says: “Now untie the towel as quickly as you will quickly weather your quarrels from the house.” The groom will try to quickly untie his own tied towel, and the situation turns out to be comical.
CAUGHT A FISH
The bride, two or three bridesmaids and a grandmother are locked in a room. When the groom approaches the locked room, he sees several threads (their number depends on the number of people in the room) that peek out from under the closed door of the room. At the other end, these strings are tied to the fingers of people in the room. When the groom pulls the thread, the one to which this thread was tied approaches him. The host of the competition says: "Take her as your wife or pay tribute." The competition continues until the groom guesses his bride or makes a new decision: to marry the bridesmaid.
Bride ransom. Scenario 6. Hostel

And one more thing: be careful there, in the corridors, they are dark with us, and the girls here are cunning, many went into those corridors, but not all of them showed back.
Witness with friends
Well, hello, fiance, hello! It's been a long time since we've seen the likes of you. Tell me which room, to whom and why? (Groom answers)
Witness:
We know, we know this one, she has been waiting for you for a long time, but not in the room that you named, we hid her in another, take a closer look at the doors, maybe by the handprint you will find where your bride is behind!
Several doors are drawn on the paper, like a corridor. On each door is a woman's hand (circled). The groom must recognize the bride's hand and indicate it, for each mistake - a fine.
Witness:
Okay, fiancé, you've found the right door. Only behind her there can be several brides, but all with the same name as yours. Go through this ladder, on each step call your bride by name, but each time so that it sounds differently.
The groom, climbing each new step, calls the name of the bride: for example, Sveta, Svetlana, Svetochka, Svetik, etc.
Witness:
Now tell us, groom, what your bride looks like, only without words.
As answers to questions, the groom gives a bill of the color that should be called.
Witness:
What are the eyes of the bride? Green! Fine. What does she have in one eye? Two - so give two pieces of paper. What sponges? Red ones - and also two. And what kind of varnish did she have on her nails today? So give me a bottle of white, okay, one for all the fingers. Well, fiancé, let's see how and what you will feed your wife, do you know what she loves, let's start from the first. What do you think she would choose if on the menu:
Three options are given, the groom chooses one of them.
Now the second.
Three options are given for the second, the groom chooses one.
Now the third.
Three options, the groom chooses one.
Witness:
Oh, girls, everything that the groom called, just today we have! It costs only ... (called the groom) the first - 150 rubles, the second - 100 rubles, the third - 100 rubles. Total: 350 rubles. Get, groom, money, and we will run away to buy, we will feed the bride. Isn't she hungry to go to the registry office? We are also very interested in the housing issue. Tell me, where will our friend live? What is the area of the apartment? Who else is registered? We don't understand words very well. You draw a plan for us. Only not with a pen on a piece of paper, but with money on a tray.
The groom draws a diagram of the place where he and the bride are going to live. Girlfriends can ask to zoom in or out, additionally indicate the location of pantries, a toilet, a matrimonial bed, etc.
Witness:
And tell me, groom, how close are you to your bride? Was he holding her by the hand, or what else? Did you take it yourself or did she let you? Well, if so, then by the written parameters you can easily find yours! As soon as you find it, kiss her right away!
Several female figures are drawn on a large piece of paper with indications of sizes, such as 90-60-90. The groom finds among them the size of his bride and kisses that figure. If he is wrong, then the girlfriends demand money from him for not telling the bride that he kissed another, and in intimate places.
Witness:
Well, well done, groom! He completed all the tasks, approached the cherished door. But behind the door there is not one bride, but several, and each tied a ribbon of her favorite color to her hand ... If you know what color your bride is favorite - pull the right ribbon, and the bride is in your arms, you don’t know - guess, but every mistake will have to be paid.
There are several other girls in the room with the bride. Each has a ribbon of a certain color tied to her hand, the other ends of the ribbons are behind the door. For which groom pulls, that bride will come to him.
Bride ransom. Scenario 7. Feats in the name of love
In this scenario of the ransom of the bride, the groom appears as a brave hero, knight, hero. His task is not just to solve any riddles, but to perform real feats in the name of love for his chosen one. The redemption process itself can take place first near the house, and then directly at the entrance.
The groom is given a bicycle (preferably an old one, barely moving) and is offered to perform the first feat - overcoming obstacles that now and then meet on the way. And the obstacles can be very diverse, ranging from various objects on the road and ending with some original route going through the grass, stairs and so on.
The next test is for fidelity to the future wife. The groom is surrounded by seductive beauties (these can be oriental dancers performing belly dance, strippers in skimpy outfits, and so on). Girls begin to seduce the groom, using their charm. The task of the "young" is not to laugh and keep complete composure. The bridesmaids carefully monitor the course of the test.
Like any hero, the groom must defeat a terrible monster guarding the entrance to the "tower" where his bride is imprisoned. A friend of the bride, or her father with glued horns, nose or ears, can act as a monster. All these attributes must be brought down using an inflatable baton or an inflatable sword.
Bride ransom. Scenario 8. In search of treasure
In this scenario of the ransom of the bride, elements of orienteering are involved. The groom and his friends are given a pre-prepared map (initially - only part of the map), following the instructions of which, the groom can find his treasure - the bride.
The first part of the card can lead the "young" to his future wife's favorite cafe, where he will meet with the bridesmaids and receive from them (of course, for a certain "fee") the next part of the card. Following various clues and indications (for example, on the fourth step of the fifth entrance of house number 22 you will find an indication of where the next part of the map awaits you), the groom with his "retinue" arrives at the next "checkpoint". The area for passing this "test" is better to choose the closest to the bride's house - the nearest district, park or just a few nearby houses and yards.
Only by collecting all the pieces of the card, the groom will be able to get to his beloved. Moreover, it is not at all necessary that the bride be at home. She can be in the apartment of a friend or neighbor.
Bride ransom. Scenario 9. Bride Hunt
Arriving at the bride's house, the groom is informed that his future wife is hiding in an unknown place and he will have to track her down. And for this, of course, you have to wake up your hunting instincts.
First you need to "attack the trail." Specifically, to confuse the groom, prints of different shoes were left near the house (on the ground or on asphalt). The groom will have to find among them the trace of his betrothed. For each wrong answer, you will have to pay off and ask the bridesmaids for a new attempt.
Here the direction is determined, but wild animals are waiting on the way of the groom-hunter (funny photos pasted on the wall, among which there must be some non-standard photos of the bride). So that the animals do not interfere, the groom must hit them with a bow (an unusual weapon for a modern person, but effective against wild animals). As a result, the hunter must hit all the animals and leave the photographs of the future wife untouched. If the groom gets into the photo of the bride, he will have to pay off.
A good hunter must have an excellent sense of smell, so the next task is to choose from various things and objects the one that smells like the bride's favorite perfume.
The bride price in this style turns out to be very interesting and spontaneous, so get ready for a lot of laughter and unexpected situations!
Bride ransom. Scenario 10. Behind seven locks
The ransom of the bride is based on the principle of the famous game "Fort Bayard". The groom is offered a series of tests (riddles from the elder Fur, a card game of "twenty-one" with the bridesmaids, and so on), for which he receives the keys. If the test is not passed, you will have to "buy" the key with candy or money.
When the groom collects seven keys and finds himself in front of the door of the apartment in which the bride is hiding, he will have to pick up the available keys for the seven locks in a certain time. For every extra 10 seconds spent on this task, you will have to pay again.
You can complicate the task by deliberately hanging one lock, to which none of the keys already found fits. This mysterious key can be hidden under the rug, above the door - in general, in an easily accessible place. While the groom will wonder what the matter is, the amount of the ransom will grow. True, there is always the opportunity to get a hint from the bridesmaids.
Bride ransom. Scenario 11. Japanese-style ransom
For this ransom of the bride to go off with a bang, the witness and girlfriends should try a little, and beat their roles to the end - it will be much more effective.
The groom, along with his retinue, consisting of "samurai" drives up to the bride's house. He is met by a witness and bridesmaids.
Witness:
What is it, sisters? Before the shadow of the sakura fell on our faces. No sooner had the disk of the rising sun reached the top of Mount Fuji, and the guests had already come to us. Well, we are glad to see you, O sun-like sansei and your moon-faced samurai! Only now we do not know why the Way of Travelers brought you to our monastery. Is it possible, with your sizzling gaze, to turn on us who are not worthy? Or maybe you, O Great, the fire of the eyes of the beautiful (name of the bride)-xiang attracted? Ah, we humbly ask you to give us your answer as soon as possible. Why do you disturb us at dawn? You must have come...?
To the bride.
Witness:
The beautiful (name of the bride)-xiang did not close her eyes all night - she was afraid of the sunrise to miss the fiery disk, warming the world. She was waiting for a sign from above, given by the gods. She wanted to make sure once again that her choice fell on the best of all existing ones. And he was given to her - a sign destined by fate. In the sky, as dark as a bottomless abyss, a bright scarlet star lit up. She showed (the name of the bride) Moon-eyed that she would not see the smile of Fate in her family life ... If her chosen one, Sun-faced, does not test her feelings with trials. So listen to our question now, O bravest of all samurai, and think before giving your answer. Are you ready to go through obstacles, so that the chosen one at the end can see the face? (The groom will most likely agree). So let everything that is destined by fate come true. May your journey not be easy. And remember, O most worthy one, that you will not pay for mistakes with blood, but you risk your wealth. But what do all the treasures of the world mean if only one smile of the bride is worth more than the gross domestic product of the entire land of the rising sun! What, will you throw at the feet of Moon-faced all the treasures of the world and your immortal samurai soul? (The groom will most likely agree to this question as well). So let fate be done!!!
Bride ransom. Scenario 12. Where have you been and what have you found?
To redeem the bride, you will need the following props: three glasses, ribbons, you can use multi-colored ones, chalk or cards with letters, one on each, a “chamomile” with memorable dates under the petals, ribbons for “pulling” out of the room, slippers, men's shoes.
The action takes place near the entrance. The groom is met by the bridesmaids and the bridesmaid.
Witness:
Hello beautiful fellow!
Why are you as quiet as a rainy day?
Where have you been and what have you found
And why did you come here?
The groom is responsible for what he came for.
Witness:
Are you talking about the bride?
Well, then don't bother.
Get ready to ransom
To take your bride.
Show me your mercy
Fill the glasses so I'm not ashamed.
In one, to rustle,
In another, to ring,
And in the third, so that the stormy foam hissed.
Quest "Desires"
The girlfriend holds glasses in front of the groom.
Put in this glass, what rustles,
Now put in this glass what rings,
Put something that sizzles in this glass.
If the groom does not fulfill any desire, then the previous one is offered to him again.
The bridegroom and witness pays off with money, sweets or wine. The groom is allowed into the entrance.
On the train on the first or second floor.
Witness:
We don't know the groom at all
And we want to know everything about him.
Let a friend-witness slowly
He will list the merits of the groom.
If a friend does not name ten qualities in advance,
There will be a full turn from the threshold to the gate!
The witness praises the groom. When naming each quality, one ribbon is cut.
If the witness does not know or thinks for a long time, pays a ransom (for each ribbon)
From the second to the third and a little fourth captures:
Witness:
There are many tender words in the world,
And the bride deserves them.
You walk up the stairs
Call the bride affectionately.
The groom is offered a test. He must climb the stairs (if the house is multi-storey - up to the first floor). On each step of the stairs, the groom somehow affectionately calls his betrothed. The task can be complicated by writing a letter on each step and inviting the groom to affectionately name his bride with this letter. If he cannot come up with anything for this letter, the witness and the rest of the groom's friends pay a ransom. After that, the groom moves on to the next step, and so on.
From the fourth to the fifth floor:
Witness:
Here is a field chamomile,
Tear off the petal
Guess the number.
And now the question is different.
You are our dear groom,
Break your head wild
And guess all the numbers.
Mission "Chamomile"
A girlfriend with a camomile in her hands stands in the way of the groom. On each petal of this chamomile, memorable dates of the young are written in advance:
date of acquaintance
Bride's waist
Wife's shoe size
Bride's birthday
Number of intended children
Bridal ring size
Number of guests invited to the wedding
Before entering the apartment:
Witness:
You have done everything... Now...
Ring a finger or a heel at the door!
If “heel”, then tell the groom to take off his shoe and call the heel of the shoe, this is necessary in order to avoid injuries to the groom.
(In the apartment they pull out by the ribbon).
Pull one ribbon
And stretch out your narrowed one.
If you pull out the wrong one,
Pay us money.
Or marry the one
What are you pulling.
The competition with laughter and jokes continues until the groom pulls his bride out. When he is wrong, the guests loudly ask for a ransom or tell the groom that he must marry the one who came out the door.
Witness:
Your fiancé promises
Be gentle, be quiet.
He won't forget this day
He will give money.
He will give everyone, please,
Do not run away from worries.
He took everything, as they say.
How do you like the groom?
Bride:
Good!
The groom enters the bride. They happily embrace and kiss. And the bride is in one shoe!
Buying shoes. 1st friend:
And the bride is barefoot
How can we go now?
Redeem my dear shoes,
But don't open the boxes.
You pay first
And then look.
Task "Shoe"
When the groom finds the bride, it turns out that she does not have a shoe. He is asked to find her. 3 boxes are placed. The groom must guess the one in which the bride's shoe is located. In one box there are slippers, in the second - a man's shoe, in the third - the bride's shoe.
Witness:
(If you chose slippers)
Secret thoughts, of course,
We know yours, my dear!
But, after all, in slippers, finally,
Not fit for marriage!
You, dear, pay off,
Grab another package.
(If you chose male)
Oh, what a grief -
This is Borya Moiseev
He presented us with a shoe.
Is that the girlfriend you were looking for?
No, you do not suffer from deviation -
You seem to know the way out.
You give us money
And grab another one!
The test passed
You have reached the bride!
And so now
You take the bride to the registry office!
Bride ransom. Scenario 13. Oh, you are guests, gentlemen, where are you from and where to?...
The ransom is carried out by a witness and girlfriends. Possible option with the parents or the aunt of the bride.
For the ransom of the bride, the following props will be required: a tray, three bowls, three glasses, an opaque liquid of your choice, the bride's shoes.
The bridegroom is met by a witness with her friends:
Witness:

When did he see (name of the bride) ours?
If the answer is correct, the groom is allowed to walk some distance. And if wrong - payment of the ransom.
Witness:

Give us so much candy.
To sweeten the father-in-law with the mother-in-law,
You have to silver him.
Witness:
You are almost at the goal, but there is a task,
We wish you good luck.
Before you stand three filled bowls,
And the lips of your beloved are almost yours.
Take a look and if you find out, then
You will receive the key to her house,
And if you suddenly make a mistake, then -
You will have to drink it all to the bottom.
The groom chooses a glass, drinks the drink and takes out the key... if he guessed right. Each next attempt is paid in gold.
Witness:
For the bride's smile -
Give us a chocolate bar.
For the bride's muzzle -
Give me the green paper.

Yes, ask your friends
To go along with you!
There is a dance of "Little Swans" performed by the groom and his friends to their own accompaniment.
There are again 3 bowls on the tray and this time they are empty.
Witness:
Make it rustle in one glass, ring in another, and murmur in the third.
Before letting the groom into the bride's room.
Witness:
Yes, it's yours now!
I only have shoes.
Or you give me a ransom,
Or you lead the barefoot to the registry office.
The groom pays for the shoes, receives the bride, and both, happy and cheerful, leave.
Bride ransom. Scenario 14. Gather the bride piece by piece
You can abandon the standard form of ransom - in verse, but try to make it saturated.
For the ransom of the bride, the following props will be required: a photographed / drawn bride, a tape recorder with a backing track, Chupa-Chups sweets, a sheet, red spray paint, nail scissors, threads.
The bridesmaids meet the groom at the doorstep. The task of the witness is to explain to him that the ransom should be taken seriously, and that since ancient times it has been considered: the richer the ransom, the richer the life of the young after the wedding. This is so that the groom is not stingy.
Condition: the bride is given away if the groom puts together puzzles from the drawn/photographed betrothed in a wedding dress. The day before, they are cut out by girlfriends or made to order. Puzzle pieces - five. They are redeemed by the groom in competitions-obstacles. For an unpassed test, the groom pays with “gold” and redeems the puzzle, otherwise the bride cannot be assembled and, accordingly ...
First test
The bride comes up with a song in advance that she would like to hear in his performance. But, which he knows well and sings more or less tolerably. The bridesmaids inform the groom that the bride would like to hear this particular song and, in order to somehow facilitate the task, she prepared musical accompaniment. He, and he has nowhere to go, buys a tape recorder with a "backing track" - any "boom box" on batteries. As a “bonus”, the words of the song are given out and ... As soon as the groom prepared to open his mouth, it turns out that the ordered composition will have to be sung to a different melody. (Let's say "A Christmas tree was born in the forest" or ... something known to your imagination). As practice shows, it turns out ridiculous, but insanely fun ...
Second test
The test is more addressed to the groom's friends. To get the second trophy, friends must vying to praise the groom. They need, without stinting on words, to list all its advantages. Girlfriends can emphasize that the better the praise, the greater the chance of success. Say, the bride does not need “at least someone”, but the very best ... Friends begin to list his virtues, and the task of the girlfriends is to tease them: faster, more clearly, in turn ... Praise is carefully and patiently listened to the end. Afterwards, friends are told: "Excellent, only to check whether you are telling the truth, you will have to repeat it all over again." Of course, they will repeat, holding 3-5 Chupa-Chups sweets in their mouths.
Third test
The groom is invited to answer questions while he climbs the stairs - each ladder is a new question. Moreover, the bride has already given answers to them. Here the girlfriends will check the knowledge of the groom of their betrothed. Questions like this:
Name the day you met your fiancee?
Where did such a significant event take place?
What shoe size does your fiancé wear?
What is her waist size?
Give the full name of your future mother-in-law.
On what day will you wish your future mother-in-law a happy birthday?
Name your bride's favorite flowers.
What color are your bride's eyes?
Name your favorite color.
Name your favorite season of the year.
What will your bride prefer: a candlelit dinner, going to a disco or witchcraft over a new culinary recipe?
Where does she prefer to rest: on the sea, in the mountains, in the forest?
Name your bride's favorite perfume.
What kind of cuisine does your future wife prefer: Chinese, European or Russian?
What will come first for a wife: family or work?
How many children does your fiancee want to have?
Does your lover believe in horoscope?
What was your fiancée's favorite subject in school?
What affectionate nickname did your fiancee have as a child?
Do you remember the words you used to declare your love to your fiancee?
For each wrong answer - a cash equivalent until the ladder ends.
Fourth test
Before entering the bride's apartment, a sheet is hung on which a heart is painted with spray paint. The task of the groom is to cut him out and go to his beloved. And given that he does not have scissors, girlfriends can offer to buy them for a nominal fee.
Fifth test
The bride, two or three bridesmaids and a grandmother are locked in a room. A thread is tied to the finger of each, which will stick out from under the door. When the groom comes to the door, the witness offers to choose any thread and pull it. The one to which the thread is tied comes out of the room. The witness asks: “Will you take her as your wife or will you pay tribute?” The test continues until the beloved is guessed by the groom.
After that, the groom and his betrothed - happy and satisfied - go further to the holiday!
Bride ransom. Scenario 15. Guests from all different volosts came in large numbers
For the ransom of the bride, the following props will be required: a home broom, a bath broom, wedding flowers.
At the threshold of the bride's house, the groom and his "retinue" are met by a witness, relatives and friends of the bride.
Witness:
There are a lot of guests
From all distant volosts.
At the parade, everyone is beautiful,
It's a miracle, it's a miracle!
Come on, guests, do not grumble!
May I ask you a question?
Why are you like this, the whole herd
Surrounded by this house?
What draws you to this place?
Answer me...
Answer of the guests: Bride!
Witness:
Oh, bride, say
Well, then don't bother.
Prepare to give a ransom
To take the bride.
In the house of all the guests do not count,
But the owner of the house is the father-in-law.
So anxious, sick...
If he does not drink, he will die!
You, guests, for appearances,
Yes, according to our custom
Give him some vodka
So that there is no grief in the house.
Witness:
Here are three bouquets with us,
Answer us now -
Which one will you take?
What will you give her as a gift?
The groom points to one of the bouquets, if it is taken incorrectly, the witness demands a ransom until the groom correctly guesses.
Witness:
Apparently, they messed up a little,
If you took a bath broom.
For trying for the second
Give some money...
Witness:
Oh, this one doesn't work either.
Know you have to pay.
Witness:
Well, this bouquet is in place,
The bride will love it...
(The groom is allowed to take the bride and he leaves with her).

Bride ransom. Scenario 17. For all occasions.
Witness:
"Hello, dear guests! Why did you come to us?"
The groom with his squad:
"For the bride"
Witness to the groom's friends:
"For the bride?
Not a bride, but a queen
Yes, such a craftswoman!
We value the bride:
We just won't give it up.
We need a ransom
What can not be expressed by price:
Three bottles of lemonade
Yes, two bars of chocolate
Vodka, beer (all the river!)
And a golden ring.
Witness to the groom:
"Hello, falcon! Hello, clear!
With what did you come on a beautiful day?
Is it bad, did you bring good?
Answer my question.
What are you called? Who are you?
Why did you come to us?"
The groom introduces himself and announces the purpose of his coming.
Witness:
"Maybe you're not who you say you are?
Are you seeking a bride with malicious intent?
To prove your right
You must describe the bride to us."
The groom describes the appearance of his bride, using the most refined comparisons.
Witness (in front of the door at the entrance to the entrance):
"Here's the first hurdle:
You need to open this door. She creaks day and night.
And what does it require? ... ".
The answer suggests itself: "guilt". The groom should treat the bridesmaids with wine. Only in this case they will allow him to enter the entrance.
Witness:
"On the threshold of the corridor
Hanging apple of discord.
Gotta get the matches
The bride is affectionately called.
In the stairwell, a large ripe apple studded with matches hangs on a string. One of the matches is short, but stuck into an apple in such a way that it does not differ in height from the rest of the matches. The task of the groom is to pull out a short match. Every time he pulls out a long match, the groom must utter an affectionate appeal addressed to the bride. If the groom, carried away by fun, pulls out a short match and, by inertia, utters another affectionate word, then he is obliged to call his betrothed by this word until the end of the evening.
Further on the way of the groom there is a new barrier-ladder. The more difficult this barrier is, the higher the bride's apartment is. Each step is fraught with a test. You can go from one step to another, from one span to another, only if you answer a question, complete a task, or pay a ransom. In a multi-storey building, one staircase is divided into several tests.
On the first flight of stairs, corresponding to one floor, the Witness offers the groom a new task:
"What will you do, groom, around the house?
You go up the stairs
Name a great thing."
Climbing one step, the groom must name some family duty that he will perform. Thus, he passes one flight of stairs.
On the second flight of stairs, the groom is waiting for the SECOND BRIDESHIP with the next task:
"You must call a council:
Name __ (number) of wine brands.
With each step, the groom names one brand of wine. If he can't remember the name of the wine, and friends are useless, then the groom pays the ransom. In case of successful completion of this task, the BRIDESHRIEND is interested in:
"How do you know so much?
Maybe you use it?
Go back or sing a song!"
The groom, alone or in chorus with friends, performs some song.
On the next flight, the groom is asked a variety of questions about the bride, to which he must answer without hesitation. If the groom does not know the correct answer or answers inaccurately, then a ransom is demanded from him. There should be as many questions as there are steps in a flight of stairs. The test ends at the last step.
Questions might be:
- Name the day you met your fiancee.
- Do you remember the hour of your first date?
- What is the full name of your future mother-in-law?
- What kind of men does your betrothed like: handsome, smart, strong or generous?
- What does your father-in-law drink more readily: tea or vodka?
- What is your favorite perfume of your favorite?
- What does your bride prefer in the morning: a newspaper or coffee in bed?
What dish will your fiancee never eat?
- What animal does your future wife associate you with?
- Do you dream about your bride?
- What was the first affectionate word that your future wife uttered?
- How much time does your beloved spend in front of the mirror?
What century would she like to be born in?
And so on and so forth. Questions can be the most unexpected and tricky.
On each step of the next flight you need to write a letter. If the bride lives very high and there are still many floors ahead, then the letters are drawn through several steps. In this case, the test can be "stretched" by no one floor. Stepping on the step on which the letter is inscribed, the groom must give his bride some definition. For example: E - economical, U - smart, 3 - caring.
At the beginning of the next flight of stairs, the Groom and his squad are waiting for the FOLLOWING BRIDESHIP:
"So that there is no mistake,
Tell fortunes on chamomile
And tell everyone in the world
What do these numbers mean?
The girl holds out a paper camomile to the groom. On the back of each petal are some numbers. The groom must tear off petal by petal from the chamomile and guess what the written number means.
It can be:
- age of the bride;
- her height;
- her shoe size;
- birthday of the bride;
- mother-in-law's birthday;
- bride's house number;
- bride's apartment number;
- the day of the acquaintance of the bride and groom;
- date of submission of the application to the registry office;
- the height of the hairpin of the bride's festive shoes;
- the size of her wedding ring;
- the age of the witness, etc.
For each wrong answer, the groom must pay a ransom. The test continues until all the petals are torn off from the chamomile.
And so, in the end, the groom is on the floor where the bride lives. Here he is met with a new task by the Witness: "And now, the groom,
You're not going anywhere:
Tell us frankly
Why are you getting married.
Here are three tracks in front of you
Pick any one."
There are three footprints on the floor, on the reverse side of which is written: "for love", "for convenience" and "for need". The groom must choose the track "for love". For the wrong choice, the groom pays a ransom and chooses the next trail. The Witness comments on each slip of the groom with the words:
"What a bad reason!
Shouldn't the groom be driven away?
Do you want to go up:
Buy it richer."
Once at the door of the bride's apartment, the groom receives another task from the Witness:
"Stop, groom! Behind this door
There is a bride, you believe me.
The key is here for now.
You get it first."
The groom is presented with 3 balloons. Each ball contains a piece of paper, but only one of them has a key drawn on it. Piercing all the balls in turn with a needle, the groom must find the key. For the wrong choice, the groom traditionally pays a ransom. Having found a note with a key, the young man gets the right to enter the apartment. But in the opening of the open door, he stumbles upon another obstacle from an impenetrable wall of balloons. The groom must either pierce all the balloons with a pin or pay a ransom. In the latter case, the barrier will be removed by those who prepared it.
Witness:
"You opened the heavy gates.
Entering the maiden's room,
Well, say it louder:
"______ (bride's name), I love you!"
After that, the bridesmaids allow the groom to approach the room where the bride is supposed to be:
"You passed all the obstacles,
You reached the bride
Now feel free to enter
You put the ransom on the table:
Quarter - for the place
Fifty kopecks for the bride."
The groom can bargain a little and reduce the price. After that, he is brought to a table, at which several women are sitting, wrapped in bedspreads. The groom must recognize his beloved among them. For each wrong answer, the groom pays a ransom. However, among the ladies sitting at the table (and not only ladies) there may not be a bride.
Witness:
"You reached the room
But he did not find a bride.
So go and look
And show us the place!
Find your bride
And we will help from the bottom of our hearts.
The words "cold", "warm"
We will indicate the place one,
Where is she waiting for you
What's going to happen to you."
The groom goes to look for the bride in the rest of the apartment. During the search, the bridesmaids, who know the whereabouts of the bride, help the groom with the phrases "warm", "warmer", "cold", "colder", and finally "hot". If the search for the bride is delayed, then the groom can pay off with money.
Witness:
"The place where your bride is,
We will indicate without hiding
If you are next to a glass
You will pay tribute without being stingy."
The witness hands the groom a tray with a glass of wine on it. Having received a ransom, the girl shows the groom the place where his betrothed is:
"All tests passed
And you found a bride.
And so now
Together with her you will go to the registry office.
Bride ransom. Scenario 18. Romantic-poetic
Witness:
Oh you gentlemen,
Where are you from and where?
And what would it be for
Are you at the parade today?
What are you, guests, bargaining for?
And why are you coming here?
Bow to you, honest people.

Is it my girlfriend?
Don't hope and don't wait
I won't let you through to her.

You need to work hard.
You, the bridegroom, in front of all the people
Show me what you're good for.
Witness:
What are you, dear friend,
Do you think badly of us?

An unspecified item.
There is a bride in the tower,
Impossible to take your eyes off.
In the daytime, the light of God eclipses,
Lights up the earth at night.

In let go now.
Witness:
Are you a fiance?
Are you a witness?
So you are responsible for everything.
Gotta help a friend
Answer questions.
Please give us an answer:
For what reason
Have you decided to get married?
Accuracy of the eye, sleight of hand
This is where they might come in handy.
A large target hangs on the wall, each field of which indicates the reason for the marriage:
10 - at the call of the heart
9 - for love
8 - by calculation
7 - by maternal command
6 - on the instructions of the party
5 - on the advice of friends
4 - as needed
3 - out of curiosity
2 - out of stupidity
1 - "damn it!"
"milk" - an attempt - not torture.
The groom must demonstrate his accuracy and hit 10 or 9. For each miss, the groom pays a ransom.
Witness:
What are you, the groom, not cheerful,
Did you hang your head on Buina?
And now your second contribution
Put it on a tray.
Well, now the question is this.
Do not rush, groom, wait:
Remember where you met your bride
What are you wearing, as you noticed?
The next question is,
It is more difficult than the other one:
What is your bride's name
You tell me about it
write her name.
The groom must lay out the full name of the bride in coins. The task is accompanied by jokes like: "Write bigger! Don't spare money."
Witness:
You paid generously
And he didn't talk about love.
So that no one doubts
You confess your love.
Shout loudly, do not melt:
"____________ (name of the bride), I love you!"
Bridesmaids:
We are bridesmaids,
Pour us a mug.
Well, to be softer,
To not judge strictly
Released to live
Treat us to Coca-Cola.
How many days were you together?
Have you looked into the eyes of the bride?
Now you tell us
Tell us the color of those eyes.
Red lips, you know them
Surely you guess -
Those who are brides.
You won't leave the place otherwise.
Make a mistake - so be it,
You will pay us money.
The groom is presented with a poster with numerous lip prints, both female and male.
The young must recognize among them the lips of his betrothed. Under each lip print, you can write any amount - the ransom that the groom will have to pay in case of an incorrect answer.
Witness:
Announcement ahead:
You tear off the personal
Read the bottom letter
And call the bride.
There is a sign on the wall that says "Call me, darling!". The lower part of the ad is cut into numerous strips. Only one letter is written on each strip. The groom should tear off the strips one by one and loudly call the bride in such affectionate words that would begin with written letters. If the next letter causes difficulty for the groom, he can turn to his faithful friends for help. If they cannot come up with an affectionate word, then the groom pays the ransom. The test continues until all the strips are torn off.
Bridesmaids - Groom:
Groom, do you need a bride?

Witness:
Here you see this pelvis.
Put in it now
Neither goat nor lamb
Not a bad pig.
For the bride, put
What does she need for her soul?
The groom is required to guess what the Witness is talking about. It will be difficult to guess for yourself, so the girlfriends in one way or another must lead the groom to the idea that the most precious thing for the bride is himself. When the groom understands this, he should climb into the basin. Finally, the groom is allowed to the door of the room, from under which several ribbons stick out. Ribbons are tied to the fingers of women sitting outside the door, including the bride, several friends and, for added laughter, some old woman.
Bridesmaids:
Pull one ribbon
Pull out your wife.
If you pull out the wrong one,
Payments to us in rubles.
Or marry the one
What are you pulling.
The groom pulls on any ribbon of his choice. If he is mistaken and draws not a bride, then he is asked to pay a ransom or marry the one he chose. The test continues until the groom pulls out the bride's ribbon.
Witness:
Yes, it's yours now!
Only shoes - I have.
Or do you give a ransom
Or you lead the barefoot to the registry office!
The groom is given several boxes of shoes. Only one of them contains the bride's shoe, while the rest contain torn slippers, children's galoshes, bath slippers, felt boots and similar shoe rubbish. For each incorrectly guessed box, the groom pays a ransom. The test continues until the groom finds the bride's shoe.
Witness:
The test passed.
You have reached the bride.
And so now
You take the bride to the registry office!

To have slim legs
Give us a bag of potatoes.
5. "Dragon".
(Depicted on the poster). And here is the Serpent Gorynych himself in front of you. Cut off his head. Take out your treasury sword, dildo spear. You don't have yours - take ours. Yes, but he's ugly. It must be wrapped in gold. It can also be cast in silver. (The groom puts coins on a cardboard sword). Or maybe you can appease the dragon with something else?
6. "Mermaids".
Koschey the Immortal released seductive mermaids on you. This is what we are. And we do not want you to miss the bride.
Did we gather the bride for the wedding?
Washed in the bath, combed?
Did you dress up in a dress, put on a veil?
Have you tried on shoes?
Not some, but your best friend was given to you. The best seductress, the best temptress, the beauty of beauties. Here's a stool, don't sit on it. Put the bride price on her.
There are many beautiful brides in this house. You tell the signs and write a portrait.
For the bride's elegant dress, give us grape wine.
For boat shoes - a bottle of vodka.
For each heel - we get coins from the fist.
Give us ripe apples for a white veil.
For the brides, ringing laughter - "sweet couples" for everyone.
(meaning "Twix").
And for a slender figure - a bottle of champagne for us.
For the bride's gentle look, give us chocolate.
For the bride's ears, give us a tub of mushrooms.
If not, serve the vinaigrette. And there is no vinaigrette, pay money for it.
For the scarlet lips of a sweet dove, do not spare ten rubles.
In order not to live without children, pour sweets into your pocket.
Get the stars from the clouds for the white bride's hands. (Cognac).
On this tray, let the groom lay out the name of his bride from rubles.
For a wedding dress, sing a song of the heart.
For the bride's voice, give us a bag of seeds. And if not, then dance the "lady" once.
Here is a squared handkerchief, put a coin on each cage.
Break the plate with the force with which you love Lyudmila. And now cover each fragment with paper money.
Come on, stomp your foot. And now another one. Don't wave your legs, let's dance.
7. "Chest".
Here is the secret door. And there is no key. The key, like the death of Koshchei the Immortal, is in the chest on a tree. You will get the key and Koschey will die. Then the door will open. In the chest - a hare, in a hare - a duck, in a duck - an egg, in an egg - a key.
8. "Plate".
In the corridor, on the door, there is a sign "In this chamber, a gray-eyed girl is languishing." If you find a mistake, you will immediately fall into the tower. (Find a mistake in the inscription. The catch is that the groom noticed a mistake in the word "languish", but did not notice that the bride's eye color is not gray, but blue).
9. "Table".
The table stands in front of the largest room. Put every good thing on all four corners. You take a young wife, provide for her, cover the self-assembly tablecloth. If you put a lot on the table, then wealth will be added in life.
10. "Bride".
The bride is tied with a rope and sleeps in an enchanted dream. The groom unties the knots and disenchants with a kiss. The bride wakes up, but she has no shoes. The groom buys the bride's shoes.
The groom redeems the bride and takes her to the registry office.
Bride ransom. Scenario 20. Judicial
The rite of redemption of the bride takes place in the form of a trial, at which the bride and groom are "prepared" for life together.
Judge:
The case is being heard on the charge of _____________________________ (full name of the groom) that he really decided to take away ____________________________ (full name of the bride) from his family
To achieve his goal, he:
1. He used the latest achievements of modern technology in the form of a tape recorder and urban transport, since he still does not have his own.
2. Acted immorally:
- walked under the windows of his beloved's house,
- sighed and groaned,
- looked with a sad look,
- from time to time broke the silence by singing serenades.
3. Used bribery in the form of buying perfume, flowers, ice cream and candy.
4. Invited to the cinema and theater.
5. Arranged walks in the park, allegedly with a purely recreational purpose.
The court was provided with testimonies of witnesses who claim that ____________________ (full name of the groom), being a student (employee, worker) of the Institute of Mr. N, left classes (work) to see his beloved. During a conversation with her, he took her by the hand, looked into her eyes. And after that, even escorted home.
So, defendant, do you plead guilty?
Groom:
Yes
Judge:
You, the defendant, pleaded guilty in full. A sincere confession always alleviates guilt. We will definitely take this fact into account, but this in no way relieves you of punishment! And the punishment for you is a very difficult path to the bride.
Punishment 1.
Defendant, you must climb the stairs. You have overcome it many times before, but now it will be much more difficult to do it. Look: there are steps in front of you. When you step on each of them, call your betrothed by the names that the time of carefully concealed "secret meetings" called her. Proceed, defendant!" Punishment 2.
And now we will conduct an investigative experiment. We have learned from reliable sources that you, the defendant, know your fiancée's lips very well. Like it or not, it will help to find out the investigation. In front of you are several lip prints. Find among them the lips of your beloved.
All subsequent challenges that can be taken from other buyback scenarios are played in the same way. The leader of the rite must endure trials in the style of a trial. Each time the groom fails to complete the task or gives the wrong answer, the judge says:
Defendant, you did not do your job well enough, and therefore you are being charged a fine, the amount of which was previously agreed. This is ___________ rubles.
Last punishment:
Defendant, you coped with all the previous tasks with honor. Now you will bear the final punishment. There are several people in front of you. Among them you must find your bride. Take a closer look: each wrong answer will cost you and your friends a big fine.
When the bridegroom recognizes the bride among unknown figures in large scarves, the judge pronounces a sentence:
Based on the fact that the defendant pleaded completely guilty and withstood all the punishments with dignity, the indictment commission, without leaving the courtroom for a meeting, immediately reads the protocol to those present.
PROTOCOL
from "___" ___________ ____
Based on the foregoing, the commission decided:
1. Recognize ____________________ (full name of the groom) guilty.
2. Sentence him to life-long cohabitation with a citizen ___________________________ (full name of the bride)
3. To settle a citizen _________________________ (full name of the groom) and a citizen ___________________________________ (full name of the bride) together in one apartment.
4. Collect from the citizen ________________________ (full name of the groom) in favor of the victim 99.9% of earnings for life!
The indictment commission wishes the newlyweds long years of married life.
The verdict is not subject to appeal.
Legal costs (in the form of glasses of wine) to recover in favor of members of the court and guests IMMEDIATELY!
The groom and his retinue are met by the Host (it can be a witness, girlfriend or relative) and 3-4 girlfriends and a relative of the bride dressed as grandmother Matryona. The rest of the relatives and guests participating in the ransom are located along the entire route of the groom and his retinue - on each flight of stairs, all of them are given tasks and props for the ransom. The main text of the ransom is spoken by the Leader, some texts are distributed among the groups of people taking part in the ransom.
Leading:
Oh you gentlemen,
Where are you from and where?
Are you equipped for the road?
Why are you dressed up like that?
Speak the purpose of coming,
Otherwise, there is no entry.
(The groom and the witness answer.)
Wow, how things have turned out!
Did you want to get married?
Well, which of the two of you is called the groom?
(The groom and his retinue answer)
Well, if you are the groom,
So why is it suddenly quiet?
Here we do not count the brides,
Look, in any window there is.
The one that is dear to you all,
Call out loud!
(The groom loudly calls his bride by name. The witness and the groom's retinue actively help him)
Throat in vain do not tear
Shout out love to her!
(The groom shouts that he loves the bride)
Okay, well you scream
And what will you reward your friends with?
They felt sorry for the bride
And by morning washed away with tears
All lipstick, mascara,
They don't show faces.
Give them money for lipstick
And on a chocolate bar
And pour some more wine
To walk more fun.
(The groom pays off his girlfriends with money, chocolate, wine)
Do you love your fiance?
Will you talk about it?
Well then write in small
You about it under the window.
(Chalk is sold to the groom and his retinue. They write with chalk an appeal to the bride on the pavement or on the entrance door. Another option: a piece of drawing paper is attached to the entrance door and the groom must write words of love for the bride with felt-tip pens or draw her portrait)
Grandmother Matryona from New Russian Grandmothers appears from the entrance - a costumed character - a disguised male relative of the bride.
Matryona:
Who's screaming like that here?
Scared my cats?
Can you choose me?
I am a fighting Matrena, such a pretty one.
Take it - and straight to the registry office.
(The groom answers).
Who else is this? Old or young?
(Groom: "Forever young!")
You are your bride
Paint with bright paint.
Where, when did you meet her?
What was she wearing?
(The groom answers when he first saw his bride, describes her) We have one girl. He sits in the tower, languishing. To get to the tower, You need to try very hard.
Leading:
Listen, attention!
Here is a serious task!
Cut the red ribbon - and life will be wonderful!
(Of course, the groom does not have scissors with him, which means he will have to buy them from the bridesmaids)
(After the procedure for cutting the ribbon, the piece that the groom will cut (and let him cut out more) is given to him as a keepsake. And this piece of ribbon will come in handy for him again during the ransom)
To enter the bride's house,
You have to go to the porch.
Not on foot, not as a moth,
And, of course, not crawling.
(Friends carry the groom in their arms through the threshold to the entrance of the house. Here a group of fortune-tellers awaits him with the next test)
And now, dear friend, there's nowhere to go
And be honest about why you're getting married.
(Three cards of any form are laid out in front of the groom, on the reverse side it is written: for love, for convenience, for need. The groom has to choose. If he immediately takes out the card “for love”, he passes without a ransom. If there are other options, he pays off)
(If the groom chose the wrong card, the following words are spoken)
What a bad reason!
Shouldn't the groom be driven away?
If you want to go up, buy it off richer.
(The groom and his retinue pay off and go on. Here the next test awaits them: 3 posters are hanging on the wall, covered with paper: on one - a photo of the bride, on the rest - photographs from fashion magazines, etc. If the groom guessed right, he receives a box of matches. If with didn’t guess the first time - buys out boxes of 1 match)
Well, then the entrance is closed,
Here is a photo of the betrothed.
You find him there
And show all the guests.
If you open it right
You'll save on matches
If not, tell your friends:
It is necessary, they say, to dive into your pocket.
(After completing the task, the groom and his retinue move on. Here, association numbers are drawn on the steps, the groom must give an explanation for each number. Another option: a large flower hangs on the wall - a chamomile, numbers are written on each petal. The groom opens a piece of paper and guesses the numbers)
Now walk with me
Step on the steps
Dates are on them
Explain them all, groom!
For example:
3, 5 (dating)
22 (met in February)
22.01 (bride's birthday)
85 (year of birth)
27. 04 (birthday of the future mother-in-law) 113 (apartment number), etc.
How many hearts
So many kind words!
(The groom collects these hearts and says an affectionate appeal to his future wife for each heart. If a heart comes across that is dark on the back, then the groom must scold the bride. If the curse sounds, then the groom pays a fine, since he must answer that neither for which she will not be scolded)
You have some fun here
And (name of the bride) has only doubts.
To make her happy
We need to sing a song.
You sing us a song
Don't sing melancholy.
For us to have fun
To love you.
And don't stand around
Sing along with us and sing out loud!
To begin with - about love,
To boil the blood in the veins.
(The groom and his retinue perform a serenade - they must sing a song to any motive, but all the words in it consist of the same name of the bride. Singing a serenade loudly, the groom and his retinue reach the bride's floor, where another group of girlfriends is waiting for him)
Girlfriend:
We do not know the groom at all, we want to get to know each other. Friend-witness, slowly, list us the merits of the groom. Name ten qualities - then you will come closer to the door.
(The witness lists the best qualities and merits of the groom)
And now, dear groom, show us what kind of life you will have. Here are three mugs (or three cookies). In one - water with sugar, in the second - with salt, in the third - with vinegar. Choose.
(The groom is served 3 mugs of drinks (or 3 cookies) on a tray. If the groom immediately chooses sweets, he is let through, if not, he pays a fine, and the test continues)
(In front of the door to the apartment)
Here's a task for you, groom: a difficult test.
If you complete it immediately, you will receive the key from us.
Do not lose this key - it leads to a family paradise.
And now you have to show us how much you love your bride. To do this, tie the ribbon that you received at the entrance to the entrance, as tightly, as tightly as you love it.
(The groom ties the ribbon)
Now untie it - show us how you will prove your love.
(If the groom successfully completes the task, then he is given a key to the front door to the apartment, and if he cannot untie it, he pays a fine.)
The door opens, the doorway is entangled with threads. The groom must burn these threads with matches bought earlier. At the same time, igniting
every match, he lists what he will do for the bride
How fire destroys the barrier
So I am your reward
In gratitude for the love I will ...
So you came to the bride.
You are almost together
Just to live as a family
Walls need to be reinforced.
One - sweet candy,
Another - with voiced coins,
The third - crispy papers,
The fourth - intoxicating wines
(The groom “strengthens” the walls with sweets, coins, banknotes, wine. He goes into the room where the bride is standing. The groom receives the bride “from the hands of his father” (or one of the older men in the family)
Leading:
In the old days there was such a custom: having taken the bride to the groom, the father took her hand and put it in the groom's hand - he gave the daughter. Together with her - and a whip - as a symbol of power over her. And he reminded that now the husband will punish for the faults. And he spoke parting words ...
Bride's Father:
My wife and I raised our daughter, tried to be attentive and caring. And she was taught to be a kind, patient and caring wife, a friendly friend. Now I give her to you, man, with the hope that you will be just as kind, caring and patient with her.
Mother of the bride:
I am sure that you (the name of the groom) will become the real head of the family, your children will always see you together - smiling, loving, open. I wish you a warm home, good friends, good children and happiness!
Leading:
Well, my friend, she's yours, Only my shoes. If you don't find them, you won't take her to the registry office.
(The groom and his retinue are looking for shoes (or one shoe) or they buy, put on the bride and the groom presents her with a wedding bouquet)
Leading:
Today is the day - as a start for you -
Hopes, guests and excitement.
And do not dissemble - this hour
You've been waiting impatiently for a long time.
The road is chosen - let's go!
What awaits you there? Flowers, anxiety?
It all depends on you - how did you go,
And not from the road at all.
Always forward, always together.
Easy or hard - only together.
'Cause the life we live
He does not tolerate those who have stood still.
(All guests leave the apartment before the bride and groom, line up at the entrance. They are given small heart-shaped balloons filled with helium. The bride and groom from the entrance door to the cars pass along a living corridor formed by the guests and relatives)
Host (at the exit from the entrance of the bride and groom):
Well, now gently hug the bride
Yes, gently raise your hands.
