The rite of redemption is considered a pagan custom. In ancient times, men did not bother themselves with long courtship and simply stole the girl she liked.
If suddenly the kidnappers happened to be noticed, then they had to negotiate with the elders of the tribe. As a rule, such conversations ended in the fact that the boy in love left generous gifts and took his future wife with him.
In ancient Russia, a man left gifts to a woman’s parents for picking up a daughter from her home. In particularly difficult cases (a poor future husband or a too strict father of the girl), the groom took with him friends who were supposed to help resolve the conflict situation.
Another tradition has gone from here - to collect for ransom a whole crowd of relatives. And earlier they participated in the negotiations.
And now the guy himself is obliged to prove his love with skill, ability or financial means.
Many years have passed, and the custom is just rooted. It is impossible to imagine a Russian wedding without a bride price. Although in other countries this is also practiced. True, there are small differences.
If in Russia “selling” a bride is entrusted to a witness, then, for example, in Ukraine, the youngest member of the family arranges competitions for the groom (if he, of course, is not quite a crumb). This may be the brother or nephew of the bride.
The role of modern foreclosures has been somewhat abolished. Today, in most cases, it is carried out with the aim of having fun and having fun. Therefore, more and more often funny and funny scenarios.
Youth bride price in modern style
The modern style of bride redemption involves the choice of subjects for the ceremony. As are the sea, Hollywood and fabulous wedding, so there are unusual redemptions in the style of the mafia, hospitals and even dormitories.
Let us give an example of a cool youth scenario for bride price in a modern style called “Beauty Salon”.
How much does the procedure cost or welcome to beauty corporation
About the details and accessories should be taken care in advance. For the redemption will need:
- sign "Beauty Salon";
- a humorous poster on the theme "Beauty is a terrible force";
- postcards with job titles: administrator, manicurist, cosmetologist, plastic surgeon, stylist (the witness has the role of an administrator, the rest are distributed among the bridesmaids);
- plates: shaping hall, hairdresser's hall, manicure room, cosmetologist's office, plastic surgeon's office, stylist's office;
- price list, which the administrator carries with him and, if necessary, provides the groom;
- medical overalls, latex gloves, disposable masks, whenever possible - tools;
- package with items of female and male wardrobe;
- dark scarves for blindfolding;
- manicure set, several bottles of nail polish, cotton pads and nail polish remover;
- three images of female faces with highly tinted lips, eyes, cheeks and one photograph of the bride;
- cosmetic bag with a comb, hairpins and elastics for hair.
It is also necessary to arrange the salon workers in such a way that with the movement from the office to the office the groom moves to the main room where the bride is hidden.
Administrator: Oh, boys, where are you going? Male beauty salon "Blue Dali" is across the street.
The groom explains that he came for the bride.
Ah: What is your bride's name?
Ah (after answering): We had three Ira Ivanova today. What are the more accurate parameters: height in inches, weight in feet, size of legs and toes, color of eyes and hair, and if you also remember volumes, it will be even better.
Ah (pretending to sort out some very important papers): Yes, it was like that. Here is her profile. More precisely, it was not, and still is here. The fact is that she managed to visit each specialist, but did not pay for any procedure. If you still want to pick it up, you'll have to pay.
Ah: Well, then let's go to the hall for shaping. Ira spent two hours here, screaming that she would crawl out on all fours, but she would lose as much as a kilogram as her wedding dress prevented from buttoning up. Poor thing! I wonder whether you managed? But not the point. Let us turn to the main news.
Our beauty salon gives you a gift. If you can demonstrate physical fitness and throw your best friend up to the ceiling three times, then you will not have to pay for the time spent here by your girlfriend. (The witness has been watching the failed attempts for some time) Ah, what a pity that you are not in the same athletic form as your bride. And you certainly did not come from the cabin across the road? Well, here's your price list, pay for two hours, please.
Ap: Well, now let's go through the cabinets. I guess you will find many interesting surprises.
- Hair salon.
We have a lot of trouble: the hairdresser got to the hospital with a heart attack after your bride ran away from the office without paying for the service. Therefore, the next visitor, and this will be a witness, will have to serve you.
In this cosmetic bag you will find everything you need. I wonder if the unfortunate client will agree to spend the whole evening on your head? Well, be that as it may, the bride's hairstyle is still unpaid.
- Manicure room.
Ira Novikova was very pleased with her nails and left the office in a good mood. I propose to the groom with the help of this set to make a manicure for the witness, and with the help of these varnishes to paint the nails of his best friend as you think she made this bride.
Oh, I wouldn’t milk a cow with such hands at night. And you do not go. And to get rid of this horror, you will need cotton pads and nail polish remover.
But I just will not give them to you. At the administrator price list, there will know the cost.
- Cabinet beautician.
I'm not quite sure that you can now recognize your bride. She painted herself with cosmetics beyond recognition. And without our help it will be very difficult to cope.
The groom is given pictures with female faces and they offer to buy the one on which, as it seems to him, the bride is depicted. After all three have been bought, announce that there is no bride on either of them.
Show the real photo of the girl and ask for something for silence.
Otherwise, she will be shown the faces with which her future husband confused his beloved.
- The office of a plastic surgeon.
I think you all guess why women visit the plastic surgeon's office, especially on the eve of the wedding. I can reassure you, the dress after the plastic is still buttoned up. But the service is almost like the dress itself. But there is a way to avoid such significant expenses.
If you are blindfolded to the touch you can recognize your bride, so be it, take it. At this time, the groom is given to touch the hairy male leg, abdomen, back.
You can offer a cat or dog, a soft toy. Here you are a dupe! I thought, and really we will give you your favorite. How, she still owes a stylist. I beg!
- Cabinet stylist.
Your bride didn’t like the image that our stylist picked up for her. Furious girl rashly confused all the clothes. Now I will tie up the groom and the witness of my eyes and give the package of mixed up clothes.
The groom should take away the items of female wardrobe, and the witness - the male. You did it, boys, the task is not very good. I am frustrated and depressed. But first I will ask for a check for services plus a commission for moral damage.
Well, here you are and imagine how much it costs to be beautiful. Ready every week to send his wife to a beauty salon? Well, if so, go take your beloved.
Only here the last nuance is forgotten. The bride did not have time to go to the shoe store. So you have to buy little white shoes from us to buy.
The bridegroom comes in to the bride, shoes her shoes, the couple kisses, the witnesses pour out champagne, the guests shout “Bitterly”.
Short ridiculous buyback scenario in verse form
It happens that the wedding takes place in an emergency mode, and there is almost no time left for convention. For such cases, a short modern scenario of a ridiculous bride price in verses has been compiled, calculated for 15-20 minutes of free time.
Oh, you guests, gentlemen!
Where are you from and where?
Is the soul good or bad?
And what a miracle
You brought us here.
This is what we are lucky?
The groom's party must answer that they came with good intentions for the bride:
For the bride speak?
Well, then do not seek it.
Just do not give up -
We Oksana * treasure!
Get ready to give a ransom.
Do you know where to get money?
Ile empty your pockets
And you like basurmans?
* the name should be replaced with the necessary
After talking about the fact that the groom has money with her (you can enter into an argument, which must be held in a joking manner; the witness pretends not to believe that buyers have money and asks them to show bills):
Ah, I see, that's what's the matter.
I really wanted to chase you away.
Well, then cook gold,
To life was rich.
I know the first task
Pro heartfelt recognition
Never guess.
You will have to give a ransom.
Again, the exclamations of the crowd that everyone can and everything will be guessed are assumed. You must first give guests to speak out, and then say the text of the first task.
I remember telling you
That in love all power is hidden.
And asked for the task
Recall the first recognition.
But not what you gave her,
Loudly "I love" screamed.
And I wonder about that
That your bride spun.
How in the ear whispered
And in love you confessed?
The witness learns in advance from the bride the circumstances of the first declaration of love and writes it down on a piece of paper (as a sign of authenticity, in order to later provide the groom).
You can diversify the contest and after the fine is paid to pronounce incorrect information about the details of recognition. If the groom agrees with the unreliable phrases, read the following words:
Short yours, friend, memory!
You managed to amuse us.
Remember though who confessed
Who so deft poured out?
To know sisters-in-law was a lot
I confused everyone from the road.
Our all said so wrong
And not a hand hug.
Here is her tip.
Speech flowed like a fairy tale.
For now you read the letter,
Money we count here.
And let's not skimp!
For a mistake, get off the hook!
If the groom calls the same words that are written in the message, then you need to say:
How good is the groom!
And beautiful, and nice!
What is his memory?
Straight, not memory - pantry.
All said to the accuracy
All he correctly called.
But do not relax.
Next you need to try.
And the bride to pick up
We will read poems.
Next comes the traditional competition for the knowledge of various joint dates and parameters. For example, the birthday of the mother-in-law, the size of the shoe of the father-in-law, the length of the bride's little finger on the right hand, the length of the fringe of the future mother's fiance’s dog.
The funnier and funnier the questions, the more interesting. For every mistake or inaccuracy - fine. Notify that everything must be put on the verses as follows:
Finally, everything is guessed
Little did you call me.
Oh well, never mind
Waiting for poems us a series.
Let our bridegroom compose,
The rest - help.
I want to hear rhymes,
Or raise tariffs.
The numbers that you called
And the people who believed
Put everything together
And write me a poem.
It takes a long time to compose even the simplest poem. We'll have to hurry the groom all the time, and in the end ask for at least what happened. Then say that the material is raw, so you need to pay a fine for the penalty.
You told us a lot
But he did not show himself.
Will be the wife for you
Like a stone wall.
Protect and heat,
I know for sure - you can manage everything.
So be it - let in the house,
But it all goes on.
I will ask you now:
Call the heel at the door.
At first, the bride’s side silently watches as the bridegroom is desperately trying to get a foot to the doorbell (sometimes it happens that friends try to lift him in their arms), and then reports that in order to accomplish the task you just had to remove the shoe from its feet and heel ring the bell.
Casket just opened.
How could you not guess.
What you need to shoot shoes
Come together, come together.
You look so big-headed
And did not brag of wit.
How is it that you sprung?
I'm waiting for money gain.
Get your wallet
And count the currency.
If someone from those present or the groom himself guessed and did everything right, then you need to impose a penalty for taking off your shoes without permission.
Who allowed razuvatsya?
Know you do not want to try!
Fine pay now,
And repeat the task.
Offer to repeat the task, but without removing the shoes.
You called the bride,
Soon you will be together.
But first in the rhythm of the dance
In the house you have to tear.
The door to the apartment opens and the bridesmaids in the opening stretch the red ribbon in such a way that it is impossible to pass under it without bending over.
But there is one condition: you can only bend your back. First all the guests pass, and then the bridegroom with the witness. They will have to pay fines for all those who failed to pass by the rules.
Then the action takes place in the corridor in front of the room in which the bride is hidden.
And now we will be a fairy tale.
The whole story is a denouement.
Once upon a time there was a king in the world (to put the bridegroom on the head with a crown prepared in advance).
He was sovereign in everything.
He scolded the courtiers ominously (with gestures to show that the "king" depicted anger),
He rode on horseback quickly (to make it clear to the witness that he is the horse who must ride the owner).
But once he fell in love
And so much has changed.
He became good as a fairy (pantomime is expected again)
And cherished his dream.
He wanted to settle down
To marry a sweetheart.
And he came to ask the answer of that
What is more beautiful there.
And the maiden is young
Loudly shouted "Yes" (words are pronounced by the bride).
You can let the groom into the bride's room and give the young ones some time to be together. Then lift the hem of the dress and say:
And the bride is barefoot!
How are we going now?
Need to find shoes
Or you can give a ransom.
The witness holds the last bid for the box with the bride's shoes.
And now I ask to the table,
I'll pour some champagne.
We drink to the young,
Fine, daring.
Living with them is a full bowl,
Children of each other were to be more beautiful.
And so they never forget about us
On a visit to the name and were friends with us.
Tables with refreshments should be covered in advance. If you have time before the registrar, you can give the floor to some of those present.
Redemption on the contrary or give us the groom
In some families, the rite is "the opposite" when the bride redeems the groom. This is a very funny and fun tradition. Guests will definitely not be bored. Yes, and the couple itself will long remember its unusual ransom. We present you an extraordinary scenario of the bridegroom redemption of the bride.
An interesting idea is to inform the bride that she will have to fight for her husband on the day of the ransom itself.
A bride with a witness and friends arrives at the address indicated in the video message. There they are waiting for a real "gang", in masks, gloves and weapons in their hands (meaning toy pistols and machine guns).
Negotiations begin on the return of the kidnapped. The bandits do not agree to any compromises, and the bride firmly decided that she would not go anywhere without a groom.
Witness: Brave girl came to us today. Such a horse, probably, will be able to stop running. And if so, then let them show us their skills on iron horses.
The bride needs to stop three cars and ask for help in raising funds for the purchase. We will take all the proceeds in compensation for the violent behavior of the groom.
Sv: Oh, well, I stopped the galloping horse, now it's time to enter the burning hut. In the house where the bridegroom is hidden, you will have to go through difficult trials before you see your lover.
All present come to the door of the apartment. But it is not possible to pass without difficulty, since the entrance is guarded by two guards.
Sv: Yes, these are our willy men Beam and Bom. They are always silent, gloomy and sullen. If you manage to cheer them up in five minutes, they will let you into the house. And if you fail the task, you will have to pay off the dark brothers.
Next, the ransom continues in the apartment itself. A man sits on the floor, his head is down, his legs are folded "in Turkish."
Sv: Examine, this is Boli-nog. As you may have guessed, his head really hurts a lot. If you do not want to pound in your temples, you will have to find a remedy for the "head" pains of the Headache. Oh, right guessed. I was just lying around a bottle of beer. Just because I will not give it to you. Painfully she dear.
After the bottle is sold, the witness declares that the head of the Boli-Head splits to such an extent that even the hands do not rise. It is necessary for the bridesmaid herself to drink the sufferer with beer. In place of the Pain-Baska comes Shish with oil.
Sv: ohh, and this is all of us known Shish with butter. Как правило, он появляется в супружеских парах на третьем году совместной жизни в качестве альтернативы норковой шубе, дорогостоящему спиннингу и ремонту квартиры.
Но тут, как видите, выскочил без очереди. Его очень срочно нужно нейтрализовать, иначе такое начнётся, до свадьбы дело не дойдёт.
Шиш с маслом: А я просто так уходить не собираюсь! Мы, может, с женихом друзьями лучшими станем. Зачем ему ты, когда я есть, румяный и масляный. Мы с ним на диване ляжем и шиш с маслом тебе, а не зарплата!
Невеста вместе со всеми подружками должна спеть добрую песню про дружбу. Но не просто так. У исполнителей должен получиться своеобразный импровизированный театр. Все слова песни изображаются знаками и жестами.
Шиш с маслом: Хорошо, поёшь, аж уходить не хочется. Но что поделаешь, уговор дороже денег. Хотя от шуршащих бумажек я бы сейчас не отказался. Вот держи клубок ниток. Он тебе дорогу к жениху укажет. А мне давно уже идти пора, меня Ивановы из 27 квартиры с понедельника ждут.
Невеста замечает, что край нити на самом деле скрывается за дверью комнаты, в которой спрятан жених. Войдя в помещение, девушка видит, что нитка привязана к рукаву пиджака похищенного парня.
Но между молодыми выстроен лабиринт из стульев, между которыми разных направлениях натянута та самая нить. Последнее задание - распутать клубок, чтобы добраться до жениха. В тот, момент, когда пара наконец-то воссоединится, свидетели открывают шампанское и угощают гостей.
Если девушке понравился сценарий выкупа жениха, но не хочется самой без боя переходить в руки влюблённого, то можно пойти на компромисс. Друзья своруют жениха в тот момент, когда он пройдет испытания и уже должен будет войти в комнату невесты.
Настанет очередь девушки доказать свою любовь и преданность. Два выкупа в один день - это свадьба с изюминкой.
И еще немного дополнительной информации о выкупе есть в следующем видео.
