Probably no wedding is complete without the most fun and amusing ceremony - the bride's ransom. Since ancient times, representatives of one family paid another for a bride. True, if earlier it was a serious test, then nowadays comic contests and obstacles that are prepared for the groom by bridesmaids and relatives give everyone a positive attitude for the upcoming celebration. How to carry out a ransom in order to profitably “sell” both the bride and entertain the guests?
Instructions
Step 1
Try not to take scripts from the Internet, the words of which are repeated from generation to generation. The main thing here is to show your invention. Think about what the groom is interested in, what is the bride's hobby, or maybe a common hobby introduced them. And based on this, come up with a script. For example, if the groom is a football player, hand a yellow card for each test miss, and a red card for a double. Write the cost of the card on the red ones - and let him pay off. If the groom is a military man - comic tests of strength and dexterity, and if the bride works in a beauty salon - let her guess her favorite lipstick color or her hand in the photographs.
Step 2
Involve the groom's friends in completing assignments. Let them shout love to the bride together, sing a song - in general, help the groom to overcome obstacles. For example, they will carry it on their hands over an impromptu fence or a comic river, help get a balloon flying under the ceiling with a task tied to it, look for a key to an apartment among many mailboxes.
Step 3
The fake brides from among relatives and friends always cause laughter and fun - grandmothers, disguised brother or uncle. Arrange a "wedding boom": on each floor, let the groom meet a dummy "bride" and ask to be married. One is cheerful, treats all guests, pours wine. The second is a seductress, promises a heavenly life, the third is an adult and experienced, says that she will protect her like a son, the fourth is a hooligan, "from the courtyard." They must persuade the groom not to go further. He refused - let him pay, because the “bride” may be offended. And if the fake beauties also play their role perfectly, such a ransom will be remembered for a long time.
Step 4
“The way to the heart of the bride lies through the stomach” - with this motto, let the barmaid come out to the guests with a tray of pies, one of which contains the key to the bride's door. All guests can help here. In addition, the barmaid can ask the groom what he will be the future wife for breakfast. Answers can be arranged in pieces of a diagram on a dart board or put in a box. Naturally, the groom pays for an inappropriate option like “sausage sandwiches” or “nothing, let her cook”, but “strawberries with cream” or “pancakes with cherry jam” should melt the barmaid's heart.
Step 5
Numerous costumes, other accessories and props are welcomed in the conduct of a ransom. After all, the groom is ready for anything for the sake of his beloved. But excessive imagination can ruin the matter: there is no need to put on a suit of a diver or a firefighter on the groom - a helmet or mask is enough. But, for example, angel wings are quite possible, especially if you are conducting a ransom under the code name "Marriages are made in heaven." Here you can dance, and guess the name of the bride under the slices of fruit, and burst blue and white balls, in which are hidden notes with tasks or questions. By the way, despite the heavenly life, we should not forget about the "Fundraising for the starving guests".
