What are the customs of marriage in Russia As one of the world's great powers, Russia has a very profound cultural heritage, and Russian people are very particular about the marriage customs. So what are the marriage customs of Russian people? In Russia, when a bride gets married, her hair must be taken care of by her mother or aunt, her shoes must be worn by her younger brother, and her girdle is best knitted by herself. The groom is not as well dressed as the bride, but he must be dressed by his uncle or other relatives of his mother. It is worth noting that the groom must have a coin in his right shoe, which is a feature of Russian wedding customs.

At the wedding banquet, the bride and groom want to bow to their parents, and then kiss their parents three times. Then the mother shall hold salt and bread in her hand, and the father the image. In the morning after the wedding, the best man must get up early to warm up the bath and then the bride and groom go to the bath, which is called a Shared bath in Russia. The third day after the wedding is the most difficult day for the Russian main order brides, because everyone has to test the bride some questions, whether she is a hard-working good wife.


Therefore, Russian marriage customs are very many, and have their own characteristics. As neighbors we should learn more about Russian culture.
