5k is not a lot tho. In USA a wedding can cost like 20 grand. Which is absolutely unreal to me but apparently it’s normal 🤷 Edit: a lot of comments that it can even be 50k, 60k and more. Truly crazy
I'm from Russia, the thing about boxes is customary only in some regions. Also some relatives who can't gift money help with organisation of the wedding, like transportation, hosting and making a wedding cake. My region celebrates weddings for nearly a week.
I'm Russian though I live in America never heard that before. Also just to add to the comment. I was born and raised in the U.S. as well as my parents. All 4 of my Grandparents were born in Russia and came to America when they were married.
@@polinalokovanot really,in romania for exemple is normal to leave about 400€ per couple,if you are a close member,like brother,godfather then you have to leave 700€+
As a Romanian I also found it weird for American friends to be telling me they made less little money. Romanians, it’s customary to have everyone bring money
No wonder they have lots of people at weddings with those customs - the guests basically pay for the wedding so they don't foot the bill ..... poor people in those countries must hate to be invited to weddings 😮
Natural selection. After WW2 basically whole genearations of men were dead. The ones wich returned, were able to choose the pretiest girls, with no competition.
my uncle had a engagement party a mehndi a haldi a cocktail party a garba a wedding a reception and 3 other functions and it was in another country so they had to pay for hotel rooms and we had a family trip all expenses paid for us 😅
As an introvert with russian relatives i had to go to many such weddings before i became an adult. It is ofc fun at times, but very often those weddings are not necessarily around the corner. You can't return home for days. And often you have to sleep at a distant relatives place, togehter with dozens of other people you probably don't know. It's hell.
@@PaulV. I was going for like 12 hour parties where you eat, drink, sing, and dance the whole time. And the tables need to be so full that you can't see the table under the plates and the table has to be nearly breaking under the weight of the food. True abundance and true joy.
We had a small wedding. Everything included we spend less than $250. My husband and i have been together 18.5 years and have been happily married for 14 years ❤. We also have 2 amazing children we are insanely proud of.
That means you had a family get together for your wedding and prepared most of the food by yourself with the help of friends and family, really so beautiful. I believe true enjoyment of life’s best moments is with your close friends and family members 😊 Best wishes from Punjab; India 🇮🇳 🤝 🇷🇺

У всех моих родственников были эти 2 коробочки. Только это были "банки" на самом деле ахах так что конкретно эта традиция существует. Двухдневные свадьбы проводило половина друзей /знакомых. Другие как правило просто расписывались и даже не справляли. Так что имеет место быть эта традиция
Все свадьбы, на которых я была, длились 2 дня, первый день роспись и сама свадьба, а второй чаще всего самые близкие родственники и друзья на даче делают шашлыки и восстанавливаются после первого дня. А про коробочки, ну я из центрального региона и у нас чаще всего используются розовые и голубые ползунки, и туда кладут деньги, это традиция, и честно думала, что она такая по всей стране. Ну а мы с мужем вообще просто расписались без всех, в ковид женились😄 так что свадьбы сейчас разные, но традиции двух дней и класть деньги на того, какого пола будет ребенок, действительно есть, просто не все им следуют уже)))

Ну если считать второй день на шашлыках на даче с самыми близкими людьми (родителями и друзьями) продолжением праздника, то да, два дня мы праздновали)))
Last time I attended my friend's wedding in Lisbon, PT. Between us three girls and one guy traveling. We all brought along each $300 dollars. We decided to stay with Laura's family to cut costs. The wedding was pretty much small, family and a few close friends. So, I'd say it depends on how many people you are going to invite, as well as photographer, music DJ, and either a homemade cake or professionally made cake and pastries. Apparently, my friend asked her mum and aunts to help with making the menu, desserts, and wedding cake. For us traveling, we spent nearly $1,800 dollars overall. Their wedding costs were $15,322 euros. Because their family and friends, us included, helped cover for any extra unplanned things. It was a beautiful and fun one day event. Then they brought out two coloured ribbons, blue and pink. Two groups we played as to guess their future baby's gender and name. 🍾
конечно! У нас была свадьба один день, мы были молоды, многие подарили по 3к рублей, родители больше, крестный мужа тоже много дал. У нас небогатые родственики.
@ I didn’t say 26 is a young age to get married. I said 26 is a young age in general. I don’t know about other countries but in Russia no way are you making such money at 26 years old that you’re able to throw it away on expensive wedding gifts. On average salary you’d be making rent and have enough for daily necessities but not much more.
No, it's not same... We haven't boxes... similiarity is only with that how many days we have wedding We have 2 days. Many traditions are totally different...
@@clemenceriotteau725Rewatch the video. It’s pretty obvious they have LARGE weddings. Trying to say you can do all this and still have an intimidate wedding…you’d have to change just about EVERYTHING to adjust for the intimidate wedding. Meaning? You CANT do all this and have an intimidate wedding.
@@someoneyoudontknow7705The bride from the video and her luxurious American wedding have nothing to do with an average Russian wedding. Most of Russian weddings have 30-50 guests at max, celebrated in a regular restaurant and last one day only. People can wear any clothes they wish and no one is expected to gift outstanding amounts of $$$. Some guests are explicitly asked not to gift anything since the newlyweds are closely familiar with every single guest and their situation. Only some regions ( in the Caucasus) have large traditional old-style weddings with hundreds of guests. But the lady in the video has NOTHING to do with the Caucasus and their tribal weddings.
Not only in Russia, Romania and other close countries too, it s customary to gift an envelope with some money, but most of the people give graciously, out of shame, i feel like is a beautifull thing to be honest, you should gift out of frienship and respect.God bless .❤
American weddings already are hell on earth to put together and shit always goes wrong imagine a wedding that lasts THREE DAYS and all the traditions and things you have to plan oml that is crazy! You gotta love the commitment folks 😭
As an American I've never been to an enjoyable wedding, didn't even know weddings were supposed to be nice for the guests. My siblings was horrible cause all the drama surrounding the day, the other was conducted in 105 degree (45c i think) heat and the reception was in a bar that hadn't been closed to the public beyond awkward, and the other was 3 hours late to start, we just sat there again in the heat bored and miserable. I dont even want to get married cause how horrible my experiences have been.
Там не сидят за столом три дня. Часто это куча традиций. В нашем регионе на второй день везут купать родителей молодых, а гости переодеваются во что-то сумасшедшее и идут в людные места предлагать выпивку за счет молодых.
Ведущий предлагает гостям помочь молодым определить, кто у них родится первым: мальчик или девочка. Свидетельница берет ползунки розового цвета, которые символизируют девочку, а свидетель - ползунки голубого цвета, которые символизируют мальчика. Какие ползунки первыми заполнятся деньгам (а деньги, конечно, складывают в ползунки гости), тот и родится первым.
It can be but doesn't have to. It happens often that one distant relative or the other has a job or a side/main business that can be used for the wedding. I had a distant russian relative have such a wedding once, and they had to pay less than 10k for it all, cause from catering, to bridal gowns and even housing could be distributed among relatives or friends who do it for dirt cheap or even free. In fact, as a kid i even got into jewellery making cause i helped the brides 3rd degree cousin making jewellery for the bride, brides maids, flower girls, etc out of Swarovski crystals, miyuki seed beads and sapphire pearls. Oh yes, and children are usually partaking in russian weddings.
Sadly, yes... my mum and dad had to save money for this while already living together (it wasn't a common thing back at the time, now, of course, it's totally okay). However, parents usually help with the costs, if they have extra money (I'm sure, my father will want to spend a lot on my wedding, he considers it to be his duty as a father) . Especially, if bride and groom are in the begging of their twenties
Bro what thats normal in most of europe as well lmao even in the poorest countries like in Romania our minimum wage is 700 euros yet you are expected to give at leasr 300 as a wedding gift or at least enough to cover up all the costs you would inflict on the hosts/bride& groom if you cant afford more and these are still weddings with 200 to 600 people each and everyone I know has at least 2 weddings a year, you just put money aside beforehand
Да ну, в нашей семье на всех свадьбах собирали ра мальчика или девочку. На свою свадьбу мы даже покупали в магазине (!) две специальной украшенные игрушечные коляски голубого и розового цвета. Сосуды могут быть разными, но суть одна
How nice especially getting married and having a kid right after they basically help you do that wow I just see win-win… because Russian women are so gorgeous

In fact, I grew up in Russia and we don't often meet really unusual fun weddings or very luxurious, more often it is just a reception in cafes , disco, banquet and a little traditions like carava and contests. Weddings for several days are in villages, they are interesting and with contests, but without such luxury decor and details (and in case guests do not drink and not get lost and will not spread all cafes - this is also tradition😁)
In the US, the Bride's parents cover the cost of the wedding, and many times the groom's parents pitch in, or give them around the same amount of money that the other parents spent on the wedding or pay for the honeymoon.
@@xdkankaxd5427 They have jobs for their rent. As far as the other stuff, most couples in the US create an online registry where they tell people what they need for their new home. Guests go to the Registry and select items to purchase as a wedding gift
@@patman1841 A "bag of potato" that is wealthy enough to travel anywhere in the world on a whim. As well as being able to pull together an international family to a completely different country... All that even before the wedding itself. Go cope somewhere else.
Not a big fan of the money tradition at weddings, especially with the competive touch (blue box/ pink box). Heard at turkish weddings they even shout out loud the name and how much is given, which pushes people to give more. Also guests already spent quite some money to travel to (sometimes exotic) places. So you need to take a loan to attend a wedding 😂
Shout the name and how much you gave? That's like a horror story to me. Good thing I'm never gonna get invited to a Turkish wedding then 😅 it's cost so much money to go to weddings in other countries. In our country we give money but it is not required only if you can afford it you can give appliances. Just not attend not unless I'm super close with the bride & groom lol
In Russia everyone gives exactly the same standard amount except for uncles/aunts/siblings who might be willing to contribute more if they are wealthier than the newlyweds. But if they are not wealthy, they can give exactly the same amount as all other guests.
My husband and I got married in 2020 on our property in Oregon, with 80 guests. We’ve now been together a total of 19 years, and we received so much money and gorgeous liquors and wines- it was awesome. It really lifted our spirits during that big mess of the coof coof!
Exactly, people get married older now days. Most couples already have 2 sets of housewares, then the wedding registry is just a 3rd set of housewares that the couple doesn't need.
Sounds like Russian weddings are the way to go. Sounds like there’s more fun and more options of stuff to do you guys hire somebody to make sure we’re all having fun. That’s cool.
$300+ in one envelope and theres like 15+ of those

For us traveling, we spent nearly $1,800 dollars overall. Their wedding costs were $15,322 euros. Because their family and friends, us included, helped cover for any extra unplanned things.
It was a beautiful and fun one day event. Then they brought out two coloured ribbons, blue and pink. Two groups we played as to guess their future baby's gender and name. 🍾
конечно! У нас была свадьба один день, мы были молоды, многие подарили по 3к рублей, родители больше, крестный мужа тоже много дал. У нас небогатые родственики.
wait, you think that 26 is a young age to get married? at what age do Russian people get married in general? in their 30s?
@ I didn’t say 26 is a young age to get married. I said 26 is a young age in general. I don’t know about other countries but in Russia no way are you making such money at 26 years old that you’re able to throw it away on expensive wedding gifts. On average salary you’d be making rent and have enough for daily necessities but not much more.
Same in Poland and so much more fun and lots of food is a must
No, it's not same... We haven't boxes... similiarity is only with that how many days we have wedding
We have 2 days. Many traditions are totally different...

It's settled. My wedding is gonna be in Russia😂
Unbelievably beautiful bride!!!!!!
I would rather have an intimate wedding with people in close to.but I’m happy for people that have this. Just not my style.
You can do all of this while having an intimate wedding.
@@clemenceriotteau725Rewatch the video. It’s pretty obvious they have LARGE weddings. Trying to say you can do all this and still have an intimidate wedding…you’d have to change just about EVERYTHING to adjust for the intimidate wedding. Meaning? You CANT do all this and have an intimidate wedding.
@@someoneyoudontknow7705The bride from the video and her luxurious American wedding have nothing to do with an average Russian wedding. Most of Russian weddings have 30-50 guests at max, celebrated in a regular restaurant and last one day only. People can wear any clothes they wish and no one is expected to gift outstanding amounts of $$$. Some guests are explicitly asked not to gift anything since the newlyweds are closely familiar with every single guest and their situation. Only some regions ( in the Caucasus) have large traditional old-style weddings with hundreds of guests. But the lady in the video has NOTHING to do with the Caucasus and their tribal weddings.
That's not the style for most Russians. Russian weddings are very modest compared to an average American wedding.
Omg your dress is so beautiful
Everything is fine untill a rainbow box appears out of nowhere 😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😅
That shit would be a grand insult in Russia.
In Russia, we believe that there should be a fight at a good wedding.😂
Underrated comment. But seriously, they won't dare to do it in Russia.
Нихрена, всю жизнь жила в России и ни разу про коробки разных цветов, куда кладут деньги не слышала.
Я тоже!
У нас в Беларуси для этих целей используют ползунки.
Ну может они решили сделать красиво. На свадьбе знакомых были ползунки, ниже сестричка из Беларуси всё верно сказала
Вообще есть много вариантов, кто-то кладёт в коробки, кто-то в ползунки, в пакеты, в конверты и тд
У меня на свадьбе в ползунки собирали, в розовые - задевочку, в синие - за мальчика🤗
Not only in Russia, Romania and other close countries too, it s customary to gift an envelope with some money, but most of the people give graciously, out of shame, i feel like is a beautifull thing to be honest, you should gift out of frienship and respect.God bless .❤
Beautiful. I'm from U.S.A. and your Russian wedding is perfect. I would have loved one like that.
American weddings already are hell on earth to put together and shit always goes wrong imagine a wedding that lasts THREE DAYS and all the traditions and things you have to plan oml that is crazy! You gotta love the commitment folks 😭
All American weddings are NOT hell on earth. I've been to several, and my own, and they were nice. Must be the people you know that make it hell.
As an American I've never been to an enjoyable wedding, didn't even know weddings were supposed to be nice for the guests. My siblings was horrible cause all the drama surrounding the day, the other was conducted in 105 degree (45c i think) heat and the reception was in a bar that hadn't been closed to the public beyond awkward, and the other was 3 hours late to start, we just sat there again in the heat bored and miserable. I dont even want to get married cause how horrible my experiences have been.
In the West, a marriage is usually a funeral for a man with a cake.
Okay but like Russian weddings lowkey sound really fun
That gown is gorgeous!!
Beautiful bride, venue, wedding in the middle of a war, bless you all for not loosing love and zest for life
That is a stunning gown and she looks amazing!! I think the Russians know how to have a party🎉🎉
Guess I’m not Russian than cause I never heard of some of these 😂 like the blue/pink boxes and idk a single person that had a 2-3 day wedding.
You seem to live in a sad, poor, depressive world! 😢

I don’t have the patience to attend a wedding for 3 days 😂 I’d get absolutely bored and homesick.
You obviously have never attended a wedding in the slavic world. How sad and depressive Your Life Must be.
Поверь мне, на таких свадьбах , которые длятся 2-3 дня скучно не бывает даже интровертам 😅
Там не сидят за столом три дня. Часто это куча традиций. В нашем регионе на второй день везут купать родителей молодых, а гости переодеваются во что-то сумасшедшее и идут в людные места предлагать выпивку за счет молодых.
@@two7736 doubt it. I'm an introvert, and I genuinely dont enjoy drinking, dancing, or parties in general.
Sounds fun! Would’ve been nice to have a nice wedding!! Mine was small and simple and free because i was a member 😊
Congratulations to you and Tom and thank you for seeing us in Dubai and taking a picture with my siblings and I it was a great gift for my birthday❤
Ни разу не слышала ничего про розовые и синие коробки
Я тоже, но я не живу в россие
Ползунки обычно, не?)
Ведущий предлагает гостям помочь молодым определить, кто у них родится первым: мальчик или девочка. Свидетельница берет ползунки розового цвета, которые символизируют девочку, а свидетель - ползунки голубого цвета, которые символизируют мальчика. Какие ползунки первыми заполнятся деньгам (а деньги, конечно, складывают в ползунки гости), тот и родится первым.
На всех свадьбах, что я была, были эти коробочки или ползунки..
I read somewhere that Russian weddings people exclaim "Gorko" so can you speak on that if you haven't already? Also you slay in that dress ❤
Russian weddings sound so fun!
Beautiful dress, I think that’s one of the prettiest ones I’ve seen
True! I have been to the wedding where instead of putting the money into boxes, we put blue&pink balloons in the big bag, it was so funny ☺️
That sounds like a ridiculously expensive event that very few can actually afford no matter what you say
It can be but doesn't have to. It happens often that one distant relative or the other has a job or a side/main business that can be used for the wedding. I had a distant russian relative have such a wedding once, and they had to pay less than 10k for it all, cause from catering, to bridal gowns and even housing could be distributed among relatives or friends who do it for dirt cheap or even free.
In fact, as a kid i even got into jewellery making cause i helped the brides 3rd degree cousin making jewellery for the bride, brides maids, flower girls, etc out of Swarovski crystals, miyuki seed beads and sapphire pearls.
Oh yes, and children are usually partaking in russian weddings.
Sadly, yes... my mum and dad had to save money for this while already living together (it wasn't a common thing back at the time, now, of course, it's totally okay).
However, parents usually help with the costs, if they have extra money (I'm sure, my father will want to spend a lot on my wedding, he considers it to be his duty as a father) . Especially, if bride and groom are in the begging of their twenties
Bro what thats normal in most of europe as well lmao even in the poorest countries like in Romania our minimum wage is 700 euros yet you are expected to give at leasr 300 as a wedding gift or at least enough to cover up all the costs you would inflict on the hosts/bride& groom if you cant afford more and these are still weddings with 200 to 600 people each and everyone I know has at least 2 weddings a year, you just put money aside beforehand
@@tonyslabu6373 that’s crazy
@@This-Is-My-Little-Corner
Indeed.... 👍🏻
Crazy! 😮 😨
I am Russian, and this is the first time I hear about these money boxes and multiple days of wedding celebration 🤷🏻♀️
Ну несколько дней часто празднуют ну допустим первый в городе второй на природе, а про ящики тоже первый раз слышу
Every wedding i attended had this. But instead of boxes there were kids onesies.
Не выдумывай. Ещё при ссср начали на свадьбах собирать деньги в детские колготки. В синие на мальчика и в красные на девочку
@@Розамира-я5о я не думаю что я вас знаю, так что переход на ты не особо уместен
Да ну, в нашей семье на всех свадьбах собирали ра мальчика или девочку. На свою свадьбу мы даже покупали в магазине (!) две специальной украшенные игрушечные коляски голубого и розового цвета. Сосуды могут быть разными, но суть одна
Тамада у вас хороший, и конкурсы интересные
😂
3 days?!?! Im ready to leave when it starts!!! NO WAY!
Indian wedding can last 1 week with activities going from 6:00 am to 12am the next day
It's not really 3 days
Honestly your fine just attending the 12hour banquet
The rest is unecesarry and just tradition it's not custom
How nice especially getting married and having a kid right after they basically help you do that wow I just see win-win… because Russian women are so gorgeous
Wait until you see what happens after they gave birth!

Now I want a Russian wedding
Wedding outside the US sound like they last longer the actual marriages in the states 🤧😂😂😂
Y'all really spending a whole weekend at the wedding. 😂
Sounds like a fundraiser 💀
So why don't more people throw fake weddings just to rake in the cash, and then divorce later while splitting their earnings? hahaha
It's called supporting the family. Every country outside of America have similar customs
Honestly, this sounds very similar to most weddings in Canada, other than the pink and blue box part.
A custom that crossed the Bering Straight? Ha ha
She is gorgeous
It's also customary here in Serbia to bring money. I thought it was like that everywhere in the world.
Ok but her dress is GORGEOUS
Красивая пара❤счастья вам😊

An interesting way to perhaps build life long friendships. Thanks for sharing the viewpoint.
Italian weddings are similar. No blue or pink boxes though.
Her dress is lovely
In fact, I grew up in Russia and we don't often meet really unusual fun weddings or very luxurious, more often it is just a reception in cafes , disco, banquet and a little traditions like carava and contests. Weddings for several days are in villages, they are interesting and with contests, but without such luxury decor and details (and in case guests do not drink and not get lost and will not spread all cafes - this is also tradition😁)
Nastya you look absolutely stunning in your wedding dress. Thomas is a very lucky man!
Especially Honeymoon Night ..ohh yeah.. LOL
2 or three days!!!??? I wanted to go home after 8 hours of my own friggin wedding 🤣🤣😭
😂😂😂
Печально что ваша свадьба вам была в тягость...
Not really
The banquet (main part) lasts like 12 hours the rest is church to my knowledge
Not really that long
the Banquet itself (which is what majority of the invited attend) is roughly 12hours
The rest is just tradition
World best wedding are one and only lndian 🇮🇳 wedding 💍 like Raja means King 👑 and Maharani means queen 👑❤❤❤❤😊😊😊 and beautiful
Same in Turkey! You have to be the one who brings the money so the groom and bride can later cover the expenses.
In the US, the Bride's parents cover the cost of the wedding, and many times the groom's parents pitch in, or give them around the same amount of money that the other parents spent on the wedding or pay for the honeymoon.
@@jmackinjersey1 how do they pay the rent when they move out then? or buy new things? the parents get everything for the American culture really?
@@jmackinjersey1My parents covered the costs of their son's wedding. My brother's wife's parents helped them with the purchase of a home
@@jmackinjersey1in turkey often the grooms parents pay for the wedding :)
@@xdkankaxd5427 They have jobs for their rent. As far as the other stuff, most couples in the US create an online registry where they tell people what they need for their new home. Guests go to the Registry and select items to purchase as a wedding gift
I have to say I learn more information from this Channel than Tom's 😂
This short literally reminded me to get a card for a friend’s wedding so thank you so much lol
Bro had to go halfway around the work to find a woman worth marrying, makes sense😂😂
Her ex lies somwhere in the Kharkiv region, watching how sunflowers grow from below. But she got a bag of potato so all good
@@patman1841 A "bag of potato" that is wealthy enough to travel anywhere in the world on a whim. As well as being able to pull together an international family to a completely different country... All that even before the wedding itself.
Go cope somewhere else.
You forgot to mention that in russian weddings everyone is always drunk and it ends up with the drunken fight 🙈
Such a cliche 🤦. Where did you get it??????
Yes, but nowadays it becomes harder to get your wedding money back from envelopes.
I need more Russian weddings in my life. What a way to get to know your new family ❤
Not a big fan of the money tradition at weddings, especially with the competive touch (blue box/ pink box). Heard at turkish weddings they even shout out loud the name and how much is given, which pushes people to give more. Also guests already spent quite some money to travel to (sometimes exotic) places. So you need to take a loan to attend a wedding 😂
Shout the name and how much you gave? That's like a horror story to me. Good thing I'm never gonna get invited to a Turkish wedding then 😅 it's cost so much money to go to weddings in other countries. In our country we give money but it is not required only if you can afford it you can give appliances. Just not attend not unless I'm super close with the bride & groom lol
In Russia everyone gives exactly the same standard amount except for uncles/aunts/siblings who might be willing to contribute more if they are wealthier than the newlyweds. But if they are not wealthy, they can give exactly the same amount as all other guests.
My husband and I got married in 2020 on our property in Oregon, with 80 guests. We’ve now been together a total of 19 years, and we received so much money and gorgeous liquors and wines- it was awesome. It really lifted our spirits during that big mess of the coof coof!
Hard cash is always the best present for a young couple!
For anyone, honestly
Exactly, people get married older now days. Most couples already have 2 sets of housewares, then the wedding registry is just a 3rd set of housewares that the couple doesn't need.
At a Russian wedding, the ring is a grenade pin and the flowers is 6-7 grenades
Sounds like Russian weddings are the way to go. Sounds like there’s more fun and more options of stuff to do you guys hire somebody to make sure we’re all having fun. That’s cool.
Almost as an Italian one!
Wow just WOW
As an introvert, the idea of a multi day wedding is terrifying
I thought the same thing
Same in lebanon
