Russian Common Wedding Ceremony

An authentic Russian wedding ceremony usually lasts for no less than two days as well as some wedding ceremonies last as long as a week. During the entire occasion there's dancing, music and singing, toasts, and plenty of foods as well as alcoholic beverages.
After the husband gets to the bride’s house, he need to pay off a ransom for the bride, in the beginning the husband shows up and gives a "ransom", (often cash or simply jewelery) for the bride, therefore, the mother and father of the bride-to-be bring out a girl or guy, which is not the actual star of the wedding, however is clothed just like the real one, covered inside a veil, therefore the husband cannot see the girl's face. Once the husband finds out that it's not really his lady, he asks for his lovely lady, but the family of the new bride is going to demand a larger ransom to be paid out.
