Sports Wedding

Russian bride and wedding

Are some Russian people so into sports that they even can go to their own wedding dressed into brand new adidas sports suite? Yes and no! It is not hundred percent clear what was the reason for the groom to do this but there are strong grounds to suspect that this was a specific Russian joke, based on the habit of many representatives of Russian street culture to wear Adidas sports as top cloths choice.

Anyways, this Russian bride looks to be shy of this choice.

Russian brides

In some parts of Russia there is a tradition to take your bride to the sauna before wedding. Some think that’s being done on some filthy purpose, but elders explain this in different way:

“When you go with your chosen one to the banya (Russian word for sauna), you can see the real person, without all the cloths and all the cosmetics that can decieve you greatly and affect your choice.”

Seeing those photos of Russian brides before the visit to the stylist and after prove that this tradition might be really wise to follow.
