Is that Russia’s strongest man in pic 2?
The strong boy is a hottie. Its such a sight of relief to see people are still having a bit of fun in poor Russia
Maybe but he’s feeling his new hernia in pic 12.
What’s a “sight of relief”? Somewhere hookers hangout?
site - a location
sight - something that can be viewed
Either way, you’re both wrong.
Hookers provide “relief” and can be “viewed”
Get lost,mother fucker ass hole Indian pimp.poor monkey ass lickers,fuck you.
yeah poor russians…
FIRST
No you’re not you prick
Never been to a Russian wedding like that… must be from a kolkhoz…
Blimey!
What a misserable looking group of people and wedding.
Cheer up people! It’s only a wedding!
White Trash Beautiful.
Give them a chance - maybe they are in love.
BTW, how comes there is a bottle of (probably) Polish water on the table?
Suck my dick bitch
What about you say? About Vodka (exactly Vodlka, not wodka)?
Stop talkin` about it! It`s just funny!
The label on the plastic bottle, next to the last picture. It says Woda Zrodla(unreadable). I guess it is Polish for “Spring Water”. Which makes me wonder whether they import Polish water to Russia.
Where did you see it? Relax, it was photoshop. Who need your polish (!) water in Russia? Do not kiddin` us.
hm, Czech perceptivity ?
Firstly I did nearly send post that I see only Russian letters (about ‘love’) but in fact, now i see the bottle of ‘woda źródlana’ (spring water).
The little kid in the dog fode looks very happy.
Yes its grim, but everyone looks happy…
Most people look very gloomy !!!! This is not Russia!!! People are happy and cheerful over here!!! A wedding is a joyful event!!!
Nice try,keep it up,Zafarad! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !.but if i comment on that,i would say.poor wedding ceremony and this is real Russia! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !.peoples are not happy and cheerful because of the “seriousness” of the event! ! ! ! ! ! !
So does the very overheated lady in the last photo, who was handing out food in the photo just before that, also play the accordion (as shown at her feet)? Is does the accordion belong to the young girl at her side - possibly her daughter?
Are they guests, family, or just wedding-food-and-entertainment business?
Damn, thats one ugly couple…
share a link with your picture, handsome! :0
They seem to me quite emotional and natural. I’d love to drink with them, that day…
I saw a wedding like this. it lasted for 3 days and there were 150 people invited. though the bride and the groom were not rich at all and everything took place at their house in a village.
The bride looks like man in the third photo. May be she is he.
i wanna have sex wtih the lady in the second picture
hey FUBAR, maybe you wanna sex with me? I bet you have a nice mouth
Ain’t nothing surprising about Polish water or any kind of foreign products on Russian tables.
Globalisation & (kind of) open market, first of all
But the main point, that may sound unbelievable but is true - Russians can’t feed themselves. Somehow they manage to produce less than a half (or smth like that) food they consume. So lots of stuff is being imported from neighbouring countries. It’s a huge market, but quite unstable - 1) You never can be sure that You’ll be paid for products You export to Russia 2) Russians any moment can come up with a ban for anything without any reasonable cause (as it may seem). But reasons may be political (to punish producing countries that they don’t like) or economical (to help their local producer of the similar product).
You’re dumb monkey
Yet, you won’t see in Russian stores a brand of vodka that’s not Russian.
I like the picture of fat woman with legs open cooling her sweat box.
Quite grim & sad actually. But that’s the real Russia. That’s more or less the way most of Russia looks like. Except superdruper glamorous Moscow that enjoys enormous flow of petrodollars.
No oil money here as You see.
Sadly but my previous comment didn’t show up at all. Censorship? I wouldn’t be surprised.
“delayed, up to 5 minutes, due to caching” - Yeah, right. Simply KGB guys read very slow due to lack of literacy and poor English
I wouldn’t call this sad. These people are the salt of the earth. The backbone of every country.
These are the ones that get fucked all the time by their governments because they are living in some remote area, have no power, no money and hardly any ambitions due to their limited horizon except the ambition to get married and to reproduce, to make ends meet and to survive, in general.
Also for those thinking that all Russian girls are long legged slim beauties: this is what happens after they turn 30. Due to poor food, rich in fat and carbs they quickly turn into little apples. Look at the last picture i.e. : the big lady used to look like the girl in the background, I’m sure… Happens to most E-Europeans: Polish, Serbians, Czech, Romanians, Hungarians, etc.. probably something genetic. Which is also the probable reason why some lucky girls indeed keep looking healthy and slim, having good skin and a visible waistline [hour-glass figure] until they’re in their 50s or even 60s… unfortunately these are exceptions.
You obviously do not know what you are talking about.
CZ, PL, SK and HU are NOT part of Eastern Europe.
They historically and culturally belong to Central Europe. The fact that these countries were betrayed, sold to Stalin after WWII and occupied by USSR for 40 years cannot change anything on their 1000+ years of belonging to the Western cultural context.
Boy, where do you take a ‘knowledge’ about Middle Europe from ?
> poor food, rich in fat and carbs
Boy, isn’t it from brochure about communist economy ?
Reveille ! Communist economy ended long time ago.
Now, Poles and few other nations from the Middle Europe boast more healthful food then in the ‘old’ West.
Problem of ‘fat children epidemy’ doesn’t refer to Polish children. There is similiar index of overweight in population but patological corpulence is more unusual then in many richer countries.
I see the British newsreader Sophie Raworth is in attendance - pic 17
Asshole go kill yourself
wtf pic 8! Is that the woman suit from Total recall?
I am with you Vladimir&its_friends.
Ooops, I was wrong. My first comment did show up, about 1h later. Veeery slow cashing or KGB guys changed their mind? :)))))))
[...] weddings are fun Russian weddings are fun. Bella festicciola alla paesana [...]
I think that Russian if they are indeed Russians share the same traits as orientals the women are hot and the men are not, well i this case the women are not hot either. The reason I suspect that these are in fact Ukranians is that one of the pics shows a tradtion of the persentaion of bread and salt which I thought is Ukranian and not Russian but i could be and probably am wrong.
[...] Elke foto heeft wel iets… [...]
[...] Végül képek a messzi Oroszországból. Na meg egy esküvő. [...]
Moron ! You know nothing about Russians
Bride and groom deserve each other…
Also note plastic shot glasses, presumably to avoid the Russian tradition of smashing glassware (and each other’s mugs, too, but that’s a given).
It looks like shots from the very nice Russian movie ‘Svadba’ (’Wedding’) by Pavel Lungin. It’s a dark comedy about one wedding in a poor provincial town inhabited by almost workless coal-miners, who are still good and open-hearted people inspite of shitty life conditions. I strongly recommend to see it.
Wonderful pictures, very bittersweet and emotionally laden like a Chekhov story. The photographer seems very skilled too. Thanks.
I wish them a long and happy life together.
Great pix and site, thanks.
Quick question:
In picture 8 what is the symbolism of the older woman offering bread? to the happy couple, Is this something traditional?
Either way I salut the new marriage
M
“Bread and salt” is an old Slavonic (pre-Christian) habit of welcoming a newcomer.
The bread is a symbol of life´s necessities, the salt is a symbol of purity and literacy.
Here, the mother welcomes the newlyweds, but I cannot say whether she belongs to the groom´s or the bride´s side as
the habit is long dead where I live.
It was also heavily compromised outside Russia by Soviets - even E. Honecker, of non-Slavonic origin, was welcoming Comrade Brezhnev with bread and salt :-D.
Hi I love these pics. Anybody know the name of the photographer?
Photographer is Andrey Shvyryaev (Андрей Швыряев)

Proves that you don’t need a lot of money to have a great time! It doesn’t matter how these people look or how their surroundings look! Sometimes what matters are the things that we cannot put a price on! We may have more things than these people but we are missing out on so much. To live simply, to love one another, to work hard, to appreciate what you have is what makes life special and worthwhile.
I can see they’ll have beauteful children very soon. God bless
And now for something completely different:

Not everyone can have the big white wedding on a fancy looking church or garden, and that is in fact the least common type of wedding in many places around the world… but as humble as conditions might be, everyone deserves a special day and hapiness :).
perfect! i like them all!
Вы все - дебилы! Нихуя не понимаете в России! Россия - рулез! Вам её не понять! Ни вашим куриным умом, ни логикой!
poor russins, indians, amerikans
I like that pics… thin man vs fat woman :D. Stan and Pan
Damn, don’t think that we are all at the former USSR like them! They just a sweet and ugly couple in kolhoz!!!
А в Америке, можно подумать, красивые все!
В америке , свадьбы красивые , все так оформлено , но поверь мне , они не весёлые , не запоминаються , не над чем посмеяться после.Я сама много раз побывала и на тех и на Русских свадьбах.А в Россие хоть и немного победнее , но весело , люди не обрашают внимания на одежду , где и как , они просто радуються от души . И хоть в каждую свадьбу кто то находит на жопу приключений , потом это все вспоминаеться с улыбкой на лице.
it’s in countryside, but it seems that the photographer is professional
It’s like the time has stood stil for 50 years! OMG
The only good thing about this set the girl in black at the top right corner in pic #11.
These are not typical Russian faces, especially male ones.
For sure, they are 100% Russians in their soul and they live in Russia, but I see that their faces are more European than Russian. Belive me, I was born and lived in the most nationally diverse city in the former USSR, lived in different citites in diferent parts of the Russia and then in NA as well, so can distinguish people from different regions pretty accurately.
I can say that these photos were made in either the very western parts of the Russia almost at the borders or in some relitevly new towns inhabited by people whose ancestors were forcibly relocated to them based on their nationality only (Estonians, Germans, Jewish, Chechen etc).
Somebody said that Russian girls become fatter as they age. That is totally wrong. I think the people on these pictures are genetically closer to Dutch than to core Russians. But their middle-aged girls still are as fat as in other parts of the Russia. So it couldn’t be linked to genes at all. It’s food, habits and unhealthy lifestyle.
I love Russia and Russia’s people. I miss Perm.
