Thank you so much for watching!
Today we will witness another story of love and long distance relationship with a happy ending.
We get to visit them a day early and get to see the wedding preparations.
The bus ride will take about 3 hours.
The bride and groom will be waiting for us at the bus station.
Vladimir is one of the subscribers of our Russian-language RUclips channel "zizin na ostrove"
His bride's name is Sweetie.
Filipino weddings are very festive, especially in the rural areas. The day before the wedding, relatives and neighbors get together.
The ladies prepare ingredients for traditional Filipino dishes and decorate the place where the party will be held.
The men, meanwhile, are busy preparing the meat dishes.
Agusan del Sur is a beautiful province in the Caraga region. Agusan gets its name from the word agAsan, which means "where the water flows".
The locals are mostly engaged in agriculture. Sweetie's father is a rice farmer.
The province also produces palm oil.
It's quite difficult to get here. The road is not developed. But what a beautiful view of the rice paddies and mountains.
We got back in the car. We need to pick up Sweety's wedding gown and some other things we need for tomorrow. This is a great opportunity to see their town.
The dress didn't fit in the interior of the car, so it was loaded into the back of the car.
By the time we got home, it was already dark. There is a videoke playing in the yard and loud music blasting throughout the neighborhood. We’re not surprised, it's a Filipino tradition.
We went to a local church to watch the rehearsal for tomorrow's celebration. Boris and I came not only as guests, but also as videographers. So this is a good opportunity for us to practice.
After the rehearsal, we asked Vladimir and Sweetie to talk about how they met and each other's cultural differences and characteristics.
Boria and I started the morning with a hearty breakfast. We were served fried fish, meat and rice, a wonderful start to the day!
The number of slippers at the entrance to the house is astounding.
Today the small veranda has been turned into a beauty parlor.
The bride and her entourage are getting their makeup done.
The yard is still bustling with activity. Some are washing dishes, others are preparing new dishes.
It all just looks like holiday preparations. But I think for Filipinos, the holiday is here.
Finally, the wedding ceremony began.
After the ceremony, the newlyweds and guests head to the wedding table.
The money dance is a cultural tradition of many wedding celebrations. Guests pin money on the newlyweds' clothes to show how much they are loved and appreciated and to help them settle into life together.
After the money dance, it's time for the wedding feast.
There are many Filipino dishes on the tables. Everything looks very appetizing.
But the star of the feast is the lechon.
The whole community is here today.
We were seated next to the bride's parents.
Before leaving, we gave the newlyweds our simple gift and said goodbye.
Vladimir and Sweetie, we are very happy to have met such wonderful people like you. And we are honored that our story inspires you. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to witness one of the most special days of your lives. We wish you all the best and eternal love for each other.
Long live the newlyweds!

She is a true woman of God!! Her testimony: She kept herself pure before marriage... God bless you Sweety for upholding to the value of a true dalagang Filipina. As your sister in Christ i am proud of you🙏🌹
My advice also to all of you guys who married afam or foreigner, please give your true love and respect to each other...don't just love the afam while they still have money to give you . Coz many are just materialistics .I am not saying all but there are . glGod bless you all guys, humayo kayo at magpakarami .❤❤❤
Im sure Vladimir was so happy to see you at their wedding. It must be hard for him to be wed in a remote area without his family but you were there to represent them.I dont even know this couple but I thank you for doing this for him!!
She’s so sweet and pure, smart beautiful woman in and out. Her fiancé seems to be a good, level headed guy. Wish them a lifetime love and happy marriage.🙏❤️👩❤️💋👨
This couple really are very happy with each other. They giggle and always laughing to each other. I can see happiness.
99% of Filipinas doesn’t have plastic surgery or heavy makeup
I’ve noticed they look alike the same face figure
This WEDDING is more BEAUTIFUL and Meaningful compare to those BIG WEDDINGS who SPENDS a LOT of MONEY. A Simple WEDDING is more Treasurable because it has SINCERITY ,Truthful and you can FEEL the HOLY SPIRIT as i Watch on your Channel. God BLESSED their UNION for GOOD, FRUITFUL , and HEALTHY LIFE
Most if not all weddings I have watched on videos on RUclips appeared to me as "pabongaan." They all appeared as though they were showing off, such as from the pre wedding, the accessories, the gown, the flowers, the reception, etc. That is understandable and normal because they were celebrating . Some of them were in tears as they said their vows, but I didn't see and feel in them what I have on this one..With this couple, one can feel the presence of true love and affection, and that of respect. They were so down to earth, had a ceremony that was simple yet they were refined and that the most important of all was their being one.
Once the phillipines got online it was over for the world, now everyone wants a Filipina wife 😂
Boris and Darlene, this episode is one of my favorites. It shows to the whole world who we Filipinos are, our culture, traditions and character, especially wedding rites in the province, and as a people. What strikes me most is that part where how Vladimir described sincerely and truly the Filipina character as a potential wife. Thank you Vladimir for the praises. You are loved by us and you are willingly embracing our way of life and traditions. Cherish the beautiful environment that you have chosen to live in unlike the city environment life. Darlene is very good videographer, narrator and arranger. I never miss any of your episodes. Please make sure this episode is shared to all your friends and relatives in Russia.
Vladimir is very eloquent and decisive about what he wants out of life. The best of wishes to your bride to be, and congratulations to you 🙏🏻 God bless your union.
masaya at maganda ang wedding.napaiyak ako duon sa part na umiyak ang mother ng girl dahil pipisan na ang daughter
I feel like am attending a Filipino wedding in the 1960s. So beautiful and I like how the Pastor explained the meaning of the symbols. Weĺl understood.❤
Congratulations to the new Russian-Filipino couple! Wishing them the best in married life! 🎉 🎉
Traditional Filipino wedding....1 in a million now to wed a virgin bride such a priceless thing to the groom....
Filipino culture. Simple things make us happy. Helping each other, being with family and friends 💓❤😊
Vladimir is Blessed with Sweety! What Sweety is feeling about getting married to a foreigner, is normal. May God be the center in their lives. They will have a successful married life.
Amazing wedding! I cried watching this. Everything is perfect and pure in this wedding ❤
