A wedding is a very anxious and exciting day for both the bride and the groom. As a rule, future husbands on such a joyful day are not afraid of registration at all, but precisely the beginning when the bride needs to be “won back”, unless, of course, a ransom is included in the routine of such an important event.

Therefore, a simple set of well-known contests and tests not only confuses any groom, even with a brilliant mind, but also does not deliver as much pleasure as a perky costume show in the form of a Russian fairy tale. Of course, well done, he is the groom, must enter into the role of Tsarevich. On his way, he will meet all the unfriendly heroes from various fairy tales, they are also the leaders, who will begin to test our newlywed in a comic form.

Think over and take no time or effort to prepare costumes and enter the images of fairy-tale characters, since the general mood of the entire ransom will depend on your presentation of phrases and appearance, try to create a fun and mischievous atmosphere. Do not forget about the surrounding space, let the atmosphere around be saturated with magic and as if the Tsarevich actually went to distant lands, passing by the enchanted forest.

Try to carry out the ransom where the space will make it possible to set the requisites well. This scenario is intended for an ordinary apartment building, but it can be adapted for a completely different environment.

Redemption suits

For the groom in the role Tsarevich: Hat, sash (preferably bright red), ideally, if there is still a caftan with a luxurious white collar and boots with pointed toes, embroidered with golden thread, as well as a bow and arrows.

For the leading # 1 in the role water: Shabby hat with wide brim with long strands of green and blue attached to represent hair. On the hands are blue-green gloves, on the legs - fins of the same color. Any long wide shirt tied with a sash and dark trousers is worn on the body.

The first test of ransom is the Kingdom of the Water One.

The groom's retinue arrives at the desired entrance, in whose apartment the bride is waiting for him. In front of the entrance, a greenish-blue canvas depicting a swamp needs to grow. You can add racks with painted reeds and sedges. If the weather does not allow, you can move part of the scenery of this stage to the first floor. In a homemade swamp, a sad waterman sits imposingly.

Water : OOOOOo, Hello, good fellow! For what need did he come to my swamp? (The groom explains that he wants to see the bride). For your further path you need a considerable payment, otherwise you will be my servant in this swamp forever. (The groom's retinue offers various gifts, but the merman refuses). And I need you to serve me faithful service. If you manage, you will bypass the impassable swamp, but if you do not, there is no court. (The groom agrees to the test)

Water : You see, gold fish swim.

(Place the painted cardboard or toy gilded (yellow) fish in the aquarium, attach ribbons in the form of loops to their mouths so that you can grab them with a suitable hook, and also glue small leaves twisted into tubes to each.)

Water : Catch me, Tsarevich is not a simple goldfish for me! Yes, only the one that speaks the truth, otherwise there are so many of them, I cannot figure it out. Let her tell us why you suddenly decided to marry, otherwise you look what a handsome man, and still quite young, so we will find out the truth!

(The groom and his friends claim that he decided to marry for love).

Water : Well, just for love, prove it! Here's a surface tool! (Handing a toy fishing rod to the groom) If you catch a fish that is telling a lie, you will have to pay off with overseas sweets, but I really love the passion!

(Inside each small letter, write the following inscriptions: "For true love", "The future mother-in-law forced", "Clean socks are long gone", "It's scary to sleep alone at night", "I can't cook", "So that at least someone woke up on time work "," By selfish calculation. ")

(If the groom catches a fish with the desired inscription, then the Vodyanoy indicates the further path, and if not, then the Tsarevich pays off with the sweet and again throws the fishing rod)

Water: You have completed my task, I will let you go safe and sound, and for the fact that you caught me the cherished fish, I will warn you that my friends are waiting for you further ... yes, nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ... Mermaids ... oh, beware of them, well done!

The second trial - the underwater world of mermaids

On the wall, attach a background drawn on a Whatman paper, depicting stones and a lake washing them.

Mermaids : Oh, what a handsome man he has come to us! And not one! Why did you come? (The groom answers that for the bride). Choose any one of us, we will live together in the underwater kingdom, and lure ships with wealth to ourselves. (The groom refuses.) Well, if you want to find your chosen one, then please us. We love passion like compliments, you look, you will delight us nice words, we will let you pass.

(The girls give way up the stairs, and there is a large drawn or printed letter on the side on each step.)

Mermaids : Name your beloved so in the letter each, so that our soul sings and is filled with kindness.

(The groom and his retinue can advance higher only after they call a compliment on the corresponding letter. The Little Mermaids advance together in the Tsarevich.)

(For example,

• "O" - charming,
• "P" is amazing
• "N" - incomparable,
• "L" - beloved,
• "G" - dizzying,
• "U" is unique,
• "C" - purposeful,
• "Z" - perky.)

(If the groom calls the appropriate word, then he moves on, and if not, then he is paid off)

Mermaids : Well done, Tsarevich, you have delighted our ears with your beautiful compliments, but we are just capricious. We would also like to hear how you sing! Sing - ka, well done, we love a song, but such that we believe in your bright love.

(The groom and his retinue quickly remember a love song and begin to sing 1-2 verses. If the newlywed and friends are confused, the mermaids should have leaflets in the printed text of the song. For example, you can use the lyrics of such compositions as "Unusual", "Affectionate mine ", And similar content)

Mermaids : Well, you have consoled the sea mermaids, have made them happy, you are going further. On the way you will meet Baba Yaga, and you will find out her way.

Test three - a hut on chicken legs

On the background, you can attach a hut drawn on a Whatman paper on chicken legs, a mortar and crows flying around.

Baba Yaga : Iris! Look what a young man he is! Are you in a hurry for my supper? Now I will only light the stove!

(The groom explains that he came for the bride)

Baba Yaga : For the bride ?! I see, you are well-aimed, since you have a bow and arrows! But entertain granny, and then there are only goblin, but evil spirits walk! If you get into my winter supplies, behind which the name of your betrothed is hidden, I will let you through, but no, then you will get into the oven! Only now, my dear, you will use my tools.

(Presenter # 2 gives the Groom a dart. In the background there is a stand with fungi and cones cut out of washing sponges - allegedly Baba Yaga's supplies. Behind each such figure there is an inscription with a name. If the dart is hit accurately, the dart easily catches on the used sponge)

(After the Tsarevich hits the desired figure, Baba Yaga lets him go further and warns him that he needs to find the Cat - the Scientist. For every mistake - ransom)

Fourth Fairy Tale Style Ransom Trial - Century Oak

Attach posters with painted oak and chain to the wall. Leader # 3 is sitting, and there is a chain near his feet (you can make a homemade one, similar to children's garlands), and a lock hangs on it.

Cat - Scientist : Hello, Tsarevich! He looks like an intelligent person, but why did he wander into the dark forest?

(The groom explains what the bride is)

Cat - Scientist : I'll show you the bride, only I need to help you. You see, I am a free cat, and as long as this chain is kept locked, I will not see the will, I have to walk on it! Find a suitable key and unlock the age-old locks. I tried to do it myself, but my paws let me down.

(The cat gives him a bunch of keys. The groom finds a suitable one.)

Cat - Scientist: You set me free, young Tsarevich! With such joy, get your bride!

(The right door opens and the long-awaited bride stands there)

In contact with

This bride ransom was created based on Russian fairy tales about Koschey the Immortal. You can use the proposed scenario "as is", or you can give free rein to your imagination and come up with your own contests. The main thing is that the ransom of the bride is interesting and fun!

The groom and his friends drive up to the bride's house. On the porch they are greeted by their bridesmaids and a witness.

Witness:

Bow to the earth to you, good fellows!

And for what miracle are you at the parade today? Why is everyone wearing ties?

We invite you, come in, we are selling the bride. What, don't you? - As you wish, we will find other suitors.

To the groom:

Choose any of us, we are all irresistible here. Oh, is (bride's name) needed? But she is not. Here just now, Koscheyushka, who is Immortal, was in our area. Our whole kingdom evil spirits he enveloped, blocked all the paths, stole your daughter-in-law, and locked her up in a dungeon, letting her sleep unkindly. If you are ready to fight with evil spirits, to win your bride from Koshchei, come with us. You will have to go through difficult trials.

Challenge 1. "A rock"

Witness:

There is a huge stone on the border of Koschei's possessions. Three roads lead from it - left, right and straight. Which one will you choose?

To the left - "marriage of necessity". There is no way for you on this road. Pay the ransom and choose another road.

To the right - "marriage of convenience". Wrong again. Pay the price if you want to take another road.

Directly - "marriage for love". Now come in!

In order to "untwist" the groom and the witness as much as possible, it is possible in any case, whatever direction he calls, to say that he was mistaken.

Then the groom and his retinue are admitted into the entrance.

Challenge 2 ... "Web"

At the entrance, the groom sees a web of threads.

Witness:

Koschey let us all the evil spirits and poisonous spiders. Now their webs are everywhere. If you touch the thread, you will never see a bride. But you can't even crawl under it - invisible poison drips from it. There is only one way to destroy the web - to burn it. We have magic matches for this purpose, if you want to go further, buy them back!

Challenge 3 ... "Fiery River"

4-5 footprints are drawn on the floor.

Witness:

Koschey the Immortal threw the witch's towel - a river of fire spilled everywhere. You can neither swim nor fly. Only in one place you can go, where the fire has died down. Do you see the footprints? Follow them, but keep in mind that in order to disenchant it, you need to put a bill on each trace. Otherwise, your path will be useless. You cannot save the bride.

The groom steps in the footsteps, puts money on each of them. Then the bridesmaids come up to him.

Challenge 4 ... Fairy Kingdom

Witness:

You have entered the kingdom of fairies. Only they can help you save your betrothed. But their evil spells of Koshchei have not passed either: fairies no longer do their good deeds for free. Do not offend them - then you are guaranteed a meeting with your beloved.

Bridesmaids:

We washed the bride

And they dressed up for the wedding.

And hair with makeup

They even made the bride!

Here's a chair for you, don't sit on it.

Put the ransom here for the bride.

For an elegant bride dress

Give us grape wine

For white pumps

Give me a bottle of vodka.

And for each of her heels

A mound of coins for us in the cam.

We offer a scenario for a fabulous bride price:

Baba Yaga meets the groom with friends

Baba Yaga:Ugh, ugh, ugh! It smells of the groom's spirit. And here is the groom himself - on dusty! Say hello to B Abul - Yagulya!

The groom: Hello!

Baba Yaga:I suppose you came for your beautiful bride ?! And we hid the beauty from you behind the distant lands in the thirty kingdom. To get it, you need to ride a horse for a long time! (to the groom's friends) Lads, do you have horses?

All: No.

Baba Yaga: So be it, I will give you heroic horses. Hold on tight, lest you gallop away.

The groom and boyfriends give Baba Yaga money, climb the stairs (holding the horses between their legs)

REPKA (check of the groom for strength)

Baba Yaga: Well, since you are not greedy, I will be your guide to tapericha.

You found yourself in the private property of the "Ded and Comp" Walking is prohibited here! But the owner himself, grandfather, planted such a turnip that you can't pull it out alone! If you help him, he will give you his possessions to pass!

The turnip is represented by a man, large and strong.

Grandfather:Aha, the assistants have appeared! Well, which one of you will be a grandmother? And the granddaughter? A bug? And the cat? And the mouse?

If there are few people, the grandfather can appoint someone at once as a bug and a cat at the same time, etc.

But the groom will definitely be a mouse.

Everyone follows each other and pulls a turnip. The latter approaches the groom - "mouse".

And they pull out the turnip.

(option: several "turnips on one side" and the groom with friends on the other side - tug of war)

Grandfather: Well, mouse, you are strong with us! You probably ate the elephant! Well done! Take a cucumber from the shelf. (Everyone is given a cucumber)

SERPENT GORYNYCH (check on the mind)

Baba Yaga: Berezai station, who needs to get out! And who does not need, back - Banzai!

Here we have a snake Gorynych with three heads. He doesn't let anyone in, frightens people. But he really loves to make riddles. And no one can solve his riddle. If you solve the riddle of each head, then it will fall asleep. If you don't guess, it will burn with fire!

Serpent Gorynych makes a riddle with each head. For example:

First head: What comes first in Russia and second in France? (letter P)

Second Head:Does not burn in fire, does not sink in water. (Ice)

Third head: Two fathers and two sons walked, they found three oranges. They began to divide - all got one by one. How could this be?

(They were grandfather, father and son)

If the riddles have been solved, the Serpent Gorynych falls asleep, Baba Yaga praises: Our (name) is strong, look! His head is as straight as my three!

If you haven't solved it, Baba Yaga: Well, it's no good, not everyone is smart! Someone needs to carry money in their pockets!

The groom and boyfriends have to pay money to the Serpent Gorynych.

Nightingale the robber (test for the strength of the voice)

Baba Yaga: Well, the groom! You are full of strength, your ward is smart, money is not pecked by chickens. But we still in our fairy tale listen to the grooms sing! Nightingale, go here.

Nightingale the robber: What do you want, old ?!

Baba Yaga:What are you talking about, I'm young, I may be myself soon

i'll get married! I brought the groom to you for a test. He will now measure his voice with you. You won't whistle.

Nightingale the Robber:Why is this?

Baba Yaga:And then, that then there will be no money in the house! But please sing it!

Puts the Nightingale the Robber in front of the groom. Take any children's song at will. Who will sing who.

If the groom sings louder, Baba Yaga praises:Oh, how our (name) sings well, the loudest of all throats!

If the groom sings more quietly Baba Yaga says:Well, nothing, money is found in a still pool!

The groom pays money to the Nightingale the Robber.

ISSUE OF THE BRIDE

Baba Yaga:Well, our bridegroom is good, and he is handsome in himself, and sings louder than anyone, his throat cracks, and his wits are in his pockets, and his salary is whole, and he has strength and a horse, and in his eyes there is fire. Well, that's it, it's time to give him the bride, you just need to call her.

He asks to shout the name of the bride in unison. Everybody screams

He asks to shout again. Everybody screams.

It turns out a person of erotic appearance, in something defiant.

Baba Yaga:Here she is our bride, she could not find a place for herself. Everything waits and waits for the dear to come.

The girl tries to flirt with the groom.

Friends or the groom himself shout:Not that one! Not that one! Give ours!

Maid: Fi, it hurts! We have seen not such! Me too ... and also zhanikh! (leaves)

Baba Yaga:well. (name) and passed this test. We will give you your bride, your (name).

Competition "Princess Frog"

Only the Frog Princess can tell the Bridegroom to go next. To do this, you need to hit the arrow exactly at the frog.

When all the riddles are guessed or paid for, the Mirror tells the location of Koscheeva's Death:

"The death of Koscheyev is in an egg, then an egg is in a duck, that duck is in a hare, that hare is in a Casket, and that Casket Koschey protects his eyes like this!"

A person can act as a Mirror, you can also use a tablet as a Mirror, and a person connected via Skype will make riddles - it will be much more mysterious and interesting.

Medicinal drug competition

The groom needs to prepare the potion himself so that Babusya Yagusi's head goes through (Mojito or any cocktail of your choice). And, of course, buy all the necessary ingredients from Baba Yaga.

However, all bride ransoms have one thing in common. All redemption scenarios are based on an ancient rite. During it, the groom must go through all the tests to reach the bride, and prove that he is worthy to become her husband.

Redemption in a private house or on the ground floor

In this case, start the redemption right in the yard. Leave the contests and tasks for the groom the same as in the previous section. Just instead of steps, make a path yourself from round pieces of colored cardboard. For example, suppose you decide that the ransom will consist of twelve trials. Then buy a set of 12 cordon sheets. Cut a circle out of each sheet. Write the test number on the circle using gouache or marker. Lay out a path from the circles to the entrance of the bride. The distance between them is about a meter.

MOM: Dear guests, I'm glad to see everyone. I want to say that when my beautiful princess was born, it was raining very unusual for my daughter-bride. Just like now. And the good old sea fairy predicted then that such a rain would be only 1 time in the life of my girl, and left us a message.
Mom takes out a scroll and reads an excerpt from Scarlet Sails.

MOM: I don't know how many years will pass, but one day the day will come when one fairy tale will blossom, which will be remembered for a long time. In the early morning, a scarlet sail will sparkle in the sea under the sun. The shining bulk of the crimson sails of the white ship will move, cutting the waves, straight towards you. This wonderful ship will sail quietly, without shouts and shots; on the shore a lot of people will gather, wondering and ahaya: and you will stand there. The ship will approach majestically to the very shore to the sounds of beautiful music; smart, in carpets, in gold and flowers, a fast boat will sail from him. “Why did you come? Who are you looking for?" the people on the shore will ask. Then you will see a brave handsome prince; he will stand and hold out his hands to you.

BIRDS: So you came to our princess bride?

Groom: YES!

BIRDS: Are you sure that you have come to the very bride you need? Do you know the name of our beautiful bride? Create her name on the porch from pebbles / hearts.
There are twenty pebbles on the ground. These are ordinary stones, on each of them one of the letters of the alphabet is written in red paint. You can use hearts instead of pebbles.
The groom lays out the name of his beloved from the stones. His girlfriends give him a piece of a picture showing a ship with scarlet sails. Girlfriends will do this after each test they pass.

Girlfriends: Yes! You're right! This is the most beautiful name! Just came to her! Apparently you have some reasons, since you came to her today. Did you come here to find your love?

Groom: Yes!

BIRDS: Does the bride know about this?

Groom: Yes!

BIRDS: Well, we're not sure. Come on, tell her now about your love. But the bride is far from here, tell her so that she hears you.

The Groom shouts: "______, I love you!"

BIRDS: I'm afraid she didn't hear you.
The groom screams again.

GIRLFRIENDS: Well, some kind of prince not advanced in technical progress. Well, think - how can you tell the bride now that you love her and so that she will definitely hear you?
The groom must guess to call mobile phone the bride.

BIRDS: Well, you passed the first test. But this is only the beginning, the bride will yield only to the most worthy of the most worthy!
The groom receives the chip from the door. Opens the entrance door.
Hang three or four ropes with three or four knots in the entrance in advance. The knots should come loose easily.

Girlfriends: Great! You have proven your fondness for the bride. Show now how hot you are. Are you ready for the bride's sake to sink icebergs that may meet on the way of your ship?

Freeze the elevator chip into an ice cube a few hours before the redemption starts. To do this, select a small container, pour water there and put a key. Make the ice cube small so that you can melt it easily.

Test "Iceberg". Bridesmaids give the groom an ice cube.

BIRDS: With the help of your sailor friends, melt the ice and get a key that will bring you one step closer to the bride.

Soon the ice melted. The groom, along with friends, bridesmaids and parents, go up to the bride's floor.

Only shines
But that land of love

Here is the wisest truth in the world

Funny bride ransom in gangster style, script

Do you want to carry out the bride ransom with humor, surprise the groom and guests with unusual contests? Then this scenario is for you.

Preparing a gangster-style ransom.

Note : Witnesses and bridesmaids dress in a gangster style, for example, in men's black suits with obligatory suspenders and hats - they talk in a rude manner, the ransom is carried out with restraint.

On the table at which they will sit when the groom appears, you can lay out cards, various money, cups and a kettle into which whiskey was poured in the 1920s. Even chewing gum is allowed. We give out crackers, pipes, rattles to everyone who helps to conduct the ransom - they need to be used at those moments when the groom copes with the next task.

Sitting behind the bridesmaids is her father, dressed in a striped suit and holding a thick cigar. The bridesmaids seem to appeal to his opinion every time, and the father with all condescension accepts the result of this or that competition and task.

The bride's father condescends to get up from his seat and address the newlywed only at the very end of the ransom: his task is to make a parting speech.

Mafia style stolen bride ransom script

Chicago style wedding buyout script.

When the groom arrives with his friends, no one meets, so they calmly enter the entrance, where the crash produced by crackers and rattles falls on them. Immediately, they stumble upon a table with bridesmaids.

They pose as a little drunken ladies. Don NN (the bride's father) is watching them through the flight of stairs. After each test according to the bride ransom scenario, the groom will climb one flight up, and his friends will lift the don's chair and carry him higher to the floor.

MEETING OF THE Groom:
1st girlfriend: Girls, what a handsome man he drew here, you will not erase!
2nd girlfriend: Yes, not a bad boy! Forgotten what?
The groom explains "what he forgot."
3rd girlfriend: Okay, okay, we already know - don’t get overwhelmed! But who told you that you can get it so easily, huh?
1st girlfriend: Or do you think Don NN raised her for you? Who are you? What do you want from our family?
The groom talks about himself, his occupation, his father and mother. If necessary, the bridesmaids ask leading questions. Then they look back at the Don, who nods his head condescendingly.
2nd girlfriend: Okay, let's go! Say the password and we'll let you pass!
The groom, of course, does not know any password.
3rd girlfriend: Why did you rush about ?! Right now, we’ll give you a hint from our girlfriend, don’t drift (here you need a record on your mobile, where the bride tries to betray the cherished word with her lips and gestures, for example, “love.” The groom guesses and names the password).

1st girlfriend: Look, you quick-witted! She just loves you for some reason, so she tries to encrypt it more clearly!
2nd girlfriend: So I think that something simple happened! Well, give me a hundred bucks for a smoke! What other rubles? Then a thousand!
3rd girlfriend: Hello, are we worse? Get rid of your carry-on baggage! Show me what you got there! That's it, I just love these sweets! Well, well, don't press, our don doesn't like rednecks! (after such an extortion, the don waves his hand, and the girls allow the groom to climb one flight, while they force his friends to move the don’s chair).
1st girlfriend: And then we will check you for "weak"! How much food you have in your trunk! So come on, show us how you can drink!
2nd girlfriend: Yes, yes, otherwise you all love to eat, but how to drink - and with no one!
Assignment: six glasses are taken out, two of which contain salt water, the other two contain sweet water, and two contain vodka. The groom should drink everything without frowning.
3rd girlfriend: By the way, you can't frown - Don doesn't like being squeamish about his treats! (when the groom does everything impeccably, the don should respectfully shake his head and make a hand gesture so that the groom will take out a snack. This completes the task and everyone moves up).
1st girlfriend: Okay, you drink well, but how do you shoot?
2nd girlfriend: Check it out right now! Take the darts! For every mistake you pay us so that we are silent, what you smeared.

Assignment: Take out a target, where in the center is the inscription "I will marry for love." On other fields diverging from the center there are such words: "I am afraid to sleep alone", "sent by an enemy clan", "I like hot meals" and so on.

3rd girlfriend: Don't wave your arms too much - you have only five attempts! (if the groom never gets to the center, then the witnesses simply take money from him for each mistake).
1st girlfriend: You, of course, daubed, but you have money. So be it! We will let you pass! If the don will allow! (Don shows with a sign that he would not mind gilding the handle, and only after that he allows him to climb another flight).
2nd girlfriend: Money, of course, is good, but can you think?
3rd girlfriend: Yes, a little brains have not stopped anyone yet!
1st girlfriend: So what's up? Let him puzzle over our gangster crossword puzzle!

Assignment: There is only one word in the center: the name of the bride. The groom must guess all the others. Questions should be about the bride's life: her month of birth, her favorite food, favorite color, etc.

3rd girlfriend: Look, you've done it! Probably too easy! Either drive the money or get another task! (even if the groom decided to pay off with money, the task is still handed to him).

The task: Pre-cut three photos of the bride, mix. The groom must assemble all three in two minutes as expected.
The task is not difficult, so the transition to the flight above the groom is guaranteed. Daddy nods in agreement too.

1st girlfriend: Yes, pretty faces! All belong to one cutie! Do you know, groom, that you have to pay for such beauty? Or do you think that your future wife has nothing to spend money on ?!
2nd girlfriend: How can it be! What do you think is this?
The task: the groom is presented with the following price list: spa procedures - 1,500 rubles, solarium - 1,000 rubles, new handbag - 2,000 rubles, cocktail dress - 1,800 rubles. The groom and his friends must pay for all this. The missing amount can be taken with champagne, flowers and sweets.
We rise one more flight and rest against the door of the bride's apartment.
3rd girlfriend: How much is there in total?
1st girlfriend: Six and a half thousand! Well, think, six three hundred! Two hundred squeezed, goons!
2nd girlfriend: We've reached the apartment anyway, but you don’t have a key!
3rd girlfriend: Y-yes, for the sake of the key will have to sweat!

Assignment: 10 inflated balloons hang on the front door.

They contain papers with tasks:

But the groom will be told that one of them will have a key written on it. But the groom doesn't find the key.
1st girlfriend: Gentlemen, all damned distraction! I have the key!
2nd girlfriend: Get the treasured key, mister gangster!
The groom opens the door, finds the bride, who can hide for a joke somewhere in the closet. Satisfied don NN opens the champagne and says parting word... The groom presents bouquets to the future mother-in-law and wife, lifts his betrothed in his arms and carries her down to the car.

Sisters. The sisters are playing bridesmaids. Every now and then they try to pull on a shoe that is too small for them, but nothing comes of it.

Cinderella-style ransom script

The groom drives up to the bride's house, where he meets with a witness who is dressed in a fairy-tale style. She holds several boxes. Witness is talking:

- Finally you have appeared! Your story is a real fairy tale. Therefore, we have prepared a fabulous ransom based on the fairy tale "Cinderella", which begins right now. The first thing to do is to guess in which box the beautiful bride's shoe is.

Of the three boxes, the future spouse needs to choose the one where the beloved's shoe is hidden. For each new attempt, the hero of the occasion pays a small ransom. When the shoe is found witness is talking:

- Congratulations, groom! You have what belongs to a beautiful bride. Now let's start! Just don't forget to wear this.

The witness hands the groom a cardboard crown, comes out of the entrance mother-in-law or witnessdisguised as an evil stepmother.

- Who came to visit us so early? Who are you? Please introduce yourself!

The betrothed should be warned that he is playing the role of a prince, so the lines should be appropriate. The future spouse answers that the prince.

- Prince ... Prince, God! Forgive me, your majesty, that I am in such a dress. There was no time to dress up. What an awkwardness, no one told us that you would come, we did not expect! Where are you from, where? Are you tired? Maybe a seagull? Or wine - we have good wine! And the chef will cook baked duck according to the best recipe kingdom.

The betrothed answers that he is looking for a bride.
- The bride ... Yes! We have a lot of them. Now I will just call my daughters! And this shoe in your hands must be hers? Daughters! Come here, the prince has come to us! Crumbs, come on, get down quickly!

While the bridesmaids disguised as wicked sisters descend stepmother is talking:

- Well, the day is issued - who knew that there would be a wedding? How wonderful! It's time to marry my daughters ... Oh, finally, you are here, babies! Come, come here!

Angry sisters go to the groom, stand behind mothers.

- Girls, I present to you the handsome prince, the heir to our kingdom! It is a great honor to see him here. And these are my wonderful daughters. The eldest is a jack of all trades, she embroiders, sings, plays music! And it has one more indisputable advantage (hints at big breasts "Daughter"). And this is the youngest! What a miracle - she dances beautifully, and her face is so cute, the back is even! Well, straighten up! So, prince, which one is your bride?

The future spouse answers that there is no beloved here. Stepmother is talking:

- How not? Come on, give it here (takes the shoe from the prince). Come on, girls, show that you fit the prince! He's a lover of little feet!

The bridesmaids take turns trying to put on the shoe, nothing comes of it.

- Crumbs, what is it? How does it not fit ?! Let me!

Stepmother gets angry and tries to put on the shoe herself. Out of breath, he says:

- Well, no, and no trial, prince! Take your shoe and go!

The groom asks if there is another bride here. Stepmother looks at him sternly, answers:

- There is one, but only the girl has a lot of things to do! She still needs to wash the floors, wash things, clean the dishes. Maybe he'll be free by the end of the week.

Then another bridesmaid appears, who plays Cinderella's godmother at the ransom.
Fairy: - Well, what are you, stepmother, so angry! You see - the prince needs a bride. It's high time she got married, but leave you ungrateful ones.

Stepmother:

- Well, good fairy, but is it a prince, since he needed such a little girl? Prince, prove that you are real! I don’t believe, since the blood nobility of my daughters did not conquer you!

Intervenes again fairy, referring to the witness:

- Young man, quickly name the merits of the groom so that the stepmother would believe!

The witness participates in the bride ransom trial, after stepmother is talking:

- Well, good! Let's see how talkative you become with your mouth full of candy (stepmother gives candy to the witness)! Repeat the same.

The witness repeats compliments in a funny way. Stepmother:

- OK OK! Stop humming under your breath. There are also rumors in the kingdom that our prince sings great lyric works. Let's check if this is really so. And let the witness play! Daughters, carry it all.

Bridesmaids endure " musical instruments"- cups, pots. The witness and the groom should play them and sing a love song. When the participants pass this bride buyout trial, the stepmother says:

The ransom participants with the presenters find themselves at the door of the bride's apartment, the entire door is hung with balls. Fairy:

- So we got there! Only trouble happened - the evil stepmother hid the key in one of these balloons ... You need to guess which of them contains the key that opens the cherished door. If you don't guess, this greedy man will demand a ransom, try hard!

The groom guesses on the first try, immediately goes inside, if not, stepmother is talking:

- I see you have not guessed! Well, you have to fork out a little before trying again - hey, prince, he decided to arrange a free trip for himself!
When this bride redemption trial ends, says again stepmother:

- Eh, groom, maybe you're in vain looking for our girl? Are you sure you need that bride? Let's be honest - describe her features, tell everything correctly - let's skip further, if not - you will marry my daughter! For the senior!

Fairy asks the groom for signs of the bride - height, weight, foot size, rings. If he answers correctly, moves on, no - pays the ransom. Stepmother:

“Well, it looks like it's her ... But I'm not sure! I require re-identification, only it will not be so simple! Here is a blindfold, here is a sheet of Whatman paper, here is a felt-tip pen. Draw a portrait of your beloved!

To the groom blindfolded, he passes a ransom trial by painting a bride. When it finishes sisters say:

- Oh, this is our dirty trick!

- Mommy, Mommy, how it looks!

Stepmother evil squints:

- Well, okay! You seem to know what kind of bride you want! Good. My stepdaughter is waiting for you in that room, but before that, prove that she will have normal living space - put the future house on a tray with money!

On a tray, the groom lays out a house with money, stepmother says with satisfaction:

- Not a bad house - a real palace! Well, congratulations. Peace and love. Crumbs, follow me.

Stepmother with bridesmaids sisters leaves room, stays fairywhich says:

- How wonderful that you have overcome all obstacles! The last thing remains. Bride are you ready?

Bride through the door:

- Ready, but I don't have a wedding dress!

The fairy smiles, waves her wand and opens the door, the bride and groom meet, the ransom ends.

Competitions for the groom and the witness

Before meeting a beautiful princess, the betrothed needs to go through several tests. Options for contests for the future spouse to buy the desired bride in the style of Cinderella:

Guess the shoe . The witness invites the groom to choose one of three packages - some of them contain the beloved's wedding shoes. The competition continues until the hero of the occasion chooses the correct option with the bride's shoe. For every mistake, the future spouse pays a small ransom to the witness.

Odes of praise and a love song . Competition for a witness. The fairy godmother asks the witness to tell about the merits of the groom. When he copes with the task, the stepmother intervenes: she hands the candy to the witness so that he would repeat the compliments, but with a little difficulty - filling his mouth with chocolate. The funny test ends with the performance of a love song that the stepmother asks to sing.

Hidden key... To enter the entrance, the betrothed must pass the following ransom test: find in which of the balloons, the key to the house (intercom, entrance) where Cinderella lives. Balls on strings are passed to him, the groom bursts them until he finds a suitable one. Every mistake is paid with a coin.

Secret cipher . Before giving a girl in marriage, the fairy must make sure that the groom will properly take care of her. From the hat, the betrothed needs to get several cards on which abbreviations are written, and decipher them, in accordance with how he is going to court the bride. For example, DBKK - to give a bouquet every day, PVPM - to go shopping together, DS - to make surprises.

The question is about the main thing. To make sure that the main heroine of the holiday is the one the groom is looking for, the fairy asks the hero of the occasion to answer questions about the future spouse, for each wrong answer he pays ransom money. Examples of questions: "What is the color of Cinderella's eyes?", "The height of the beloved?", "The size of the bride's feet?"

Use your imagination, coming up with original contests for the redemption of young people, then the event will be unforgettable.

8. Homemade "mines".
These are A4 sheets with the words "mine".

9.Ropes and bells.
You can replace the bells with rattles.

10. A printed oath with interesting and funny text.

Test one. "A meeting".

• The brighter the girlfriends meet the groom, the more fun the entire ransom will be. All statements must be spoken clearly and clearly, as in the army
• As soon as the groom got out of the car, the witness-military commissar informs the groom that the bride's guard does not want to accept the groom who has not taken the “family oath” into her “family”. The groom agrees to start his journey

The second test. "Body check".

• The nurse asks the groom to submit a medical examination certificate, which he does not have. Then the nurse makes indulgence to the groom and asks the witness to list all the qualities of the groom
• The witness can lead the groom to the stairs and indicate to him the number of named qualities equal to the number of steps
• Climbing to the top step, the nurse writes out a certificate of the groom's suitability for service in the "family"

Third test. "Service in training".

• The groom must learn some of the basics of service in the "family." The girlfriend, dressed in a military uniform, is a military commissar, gives the groom and the witness footcloths and boots
• They must dress them in 45 seconds or while the match is on. It will be more fun if you give out children's rubber boots, explaining this fact by insufficient funding from the state
• Naturally, the groom and the witness will not be able to pull on children's boots. In this case, the military commissar offers to "negotiate". In this case, the groom pays the ransom
• Then the groom and the witness are taught to sew shoulder straps or collars. The military commissar gives out two women's dressing gowns, calling them "mother-in-law's uniforms", shoulder straps or collars, and thread with needles. The groom and the witness must temporarily sew on the shoulder straps or collars issued to them
• If the groom lost to the witness, then he can offer the military commissar to "pay off"

At this stage, the groom must sing. Distribute children's musical toys to guests. They will represent the marching band of the military. The groom must sing the song "Katyusha" to the accompaniment. The name in the song should be replaced with the name of the bride.

Test five. "Fire training".

• Here the groom undergoes fire training. There are several ways to conduct this test.
• There is only one goal - the groom will throw "grenades" at the desired target. Hang balloons on the wall. Write the reasons for marriage on them with felt-tip pens
• Write funny reasons: by calculation, mother-in-law makes, on flight, father-in-law threatened, etc. Be sure to make one balloon labeled "for love"
• It can be hidden behind other balls. The groom is given darts. The groom's goal is to get into the balloon with the words "for love"
• The same can be done with regular darts. For every mistake, the groom must pay a fine. It will be funnier if you force him to peel potatoes. One miss - one potato

Test six. "Obstacle course".

The last test is carried out directly in front of the bride or at the entrance to the bride's apartment. Here you can also choose one of two options.

Option 1. Prepare an obstacle course on the stairs, at the entrance to the bride's apartment. Place sheets of paper with the words "mine" on the entire staircase. Spread it out so that there are no voids left. The military commissar explains to the groom that he needs to go to his bride through a minefield, but these mines react only to the groom. For each "mine" the groom pays a fine. Savvy grooms ask the witness to carry him in their arms

Option 2. Prepare this option in front of the bride. In an apartment, for example, in the corridor, you should stretch the ropes with bells. Bells can be replaced with baby rattles. The groom's task is to go through the obstacle course without touching the bells or rattles. The test can be "simplified". As in the first option, the military instructor can warn the groom about the reaction of bells or rattles only to the groom. And directly invite the witness to help the groom. The witness also takes the groom in his arms and carries him to the bride

Both options can be used in the test. Only the main thing is not to overdo it, and to make sure that the witness only once carries the groom in his arms.

Final test.

• The groom takes the "family oath"
• The oath is read by the military officer, and the groom repeats after him
• Come up with the text of the oath based on specific situations, it will be more creative.
• Do not forget about these words: "I swear to love my wife, give every year a fur coat, do not go to the left, do not relax with friends in the sauna"
• Having taken the "family oath", the guests and the bride's parents accept the groom into their ranks of the "valiant family"
