A wedding is a special day in the life of each couple, so I want it to be remembered for a lifetime. The bride and groom plan the wedding day so that it becomes bright and interesting - for this purpose contests, entertainment events are held. So, to date, a rather old tradition of redeeming the bride by the groom has been preserved. For this, the bridesmaids build various obstacles in the way of the young man. However, not all couples want to spend their wedding day in this traditional scenario. Moreover, there are many ways to meet the groom without a ransom.
Reasons for abandoning the ransom tradition
The refusal to buy out can be explained by the following reasons:
- Considering that for many decades weddings took place according to the same classical scenario, such a tradition has exhausted itself;
- most couples cohabit before marriage, so the ransom seems inappropriate;
- any couple wants their wedding to be exclusive and original, therefore does not want to adhere to generally accepted canons;
- A simpler option is to meet the future spouse at the bride's house, from where he (with parental permission) takes her to the registry office.
Alternative scenarios for meeting the groom
Besides the obsolete tradition, there are other ways to meet young people. With a well-planned scenario, buying a young one will not be necessary. Consider some modern alternative ways to meet the bride and groom.
- For lovers of exclusives, an unusual option will be to meet at the fountain, on the promenade, in the park or in another picturesque place. This meeting can be arranged so that young people move towards each other to beautiful music.
- Couples can also arrange a meeting at the Wedding Palace.The bride and groom can drive to the registry office in different cars at the same time.
- If the couple lived together before the wedding, then you can arrange a joint exit from the hotel room (or your house, apartment). Get quite stylish photos.
Young people can meet at the place of their first meeting. It will turn out very romantic. They can also take walks to places where they often spent time together.
- You can arrange a meeting of future spouses in the form of a quest. The bridesmaids give clues to the groom, following which he must find the bride. A bride, for example, can sit in a nearby cafe. And from there, they can go together to the Wedding Palace.
- At the time of the arrival of the future spouse, a meeting occurs with the parents of the future spouse - they make a speech, give parting words and wish happiness in family life. The bride at this time is in the next room. Then the father takes the daughter out, takes the hands of the young and holds them together, thereby giving the hand and heart to the daughter.
- Another option for meeting the groom without money is to simply pick up the bride from home. At the time of the arrival of the young man, the girl should be dressed in a wedding dress, the room is elegantly decorated, the table is served. In a relaxed atmosphere, the young take oaths of eternal love and fidelity to each other. Then everyone drinks a glass of champagne and moves to the registry office.
Also, lovers of funny contests can ask the young man to sing their favorite romantic song under the windows of the bride, to which the bride goes down, the young ones dance and get into the car to applause. Then they go to the Wedding Palace.
- It is best to meet the young bride's parents. If you do not want to meet him with a loaf, you can meet with glasses of champagne or wine.
- You can arrange a meeting of the bride and groom unusually. For example, he may come to meet her on a white horse or in a superhero costume.
- The groom can appear in front of the bride’s house spectacularly - together with friends, he can perform some enchanting number: dance, skit, etc.
- There is an idea of an extreme meeting of the bride and groom. The groom can rise with a bunch of flowers in his mouth on the fire escape, climb into her window. In the room of the groom, the bride and her parents will be waiting, as well as a small buffet table. If possible, you can order a lift, decorate it with balls, flowers. On the lift, the groom rises to the bride’s window, and then they go down to the cars together.
- An interesting option would be the meeting of the bride and groom according to the traditions of other nations. For example, you can revive the ancient traditions of Jewish, Ukrainian, Tatar, Moldavian, Chechen and other weddings. It will be very creative.
In order for the wedding to be remembered for a long time, you need to think through the whole scenario to the smallest detail, and not just the meeting of the groom and the bride. Also, it is not at all necessary to completely abandon the ransom - it can be carried out, but redone in a modern or humorous way or only use individual elements of this tradition. Whatever the idea of holding a wedding, the main thing is that it be remembered by the young for many years.
