Let's start decorating the apartment for the wedding
Already approaching the door of your entrance, guests should see that this is where the holiday will take place. Decoration needs to start from the entrance and stairs - all the flaws on the walls can be hidden with the help of various applications and bright posters. You can make a surprise for the newlyweds by hanging balloons and notes with wishes along the stairs. Even the most unprepossessing front door will be transformed if it is decorated with a beautiful panel and decor of dried or fresh flowers.
In the hallway you can hang a large and beautiful poster with pasted photographs of the newlyweds: let there be pictures from kindergarten and school, a first date or a joint trip. You can ask your friends to create a wall newspaper, or, if you have an artist friend, instruct him to draw your love story.
To create a festive atmosphere, you can use whatever you can get your hands on. Do you love soft toys? - so why not plant bears or dolls in the corners of a festively decorated room? Show your imagination, make crafts with your own hands - and they will delight you for many years to come, reminding you of this amazing event. In addition, there are many holiday agencies that will be happy to offer their services to you.
Ordinary balloons will also help make your home more cozy and elegant. Now in the store you can buy balls of various colors and sizes that will organically fit into the decoration of any room.
You can make luxurious compositions from them: all kinds of hearts, bouquets, figurines, rings. Confetti can be poured into several balloons and then inflated - at the right time they burst over the heads of the newlyweds, and a shiny and bright rain falls on the bride and groom. You can also fill the balloons with helium or hydrogen so that they can easily float throughout your apartment or entrance.
Don't forget about floristry. Could there be anything more beautiful than fresh flowers? Flowers have been used as decoration at weddings for centuries. You can put them in vases and symbolic baskets, decorate the festive table with them, or strew the path of the groom to the bride with petals
Make sure that the plants are in harmony with the bride’s bouquet and the groom’s boutonniere
When decorating an apartment with flowers, you need to take into account their ability to maintain their original appearance for as long as possible and not crumble. The best options would be callas, roses, gladioli and chrysanthemums. If the celebration takes place in the summer, you can create a festive atmosphere with the help of daisies, asters, peonies, and cornflowers.
To prevent the bouquets from seeming tacky, they can be supplemented with twigs of thuja, fern or monstera. If you have time and patience, you can make beautiful compositions with rhinestones, feathers, cones, bows, and ribbons.
A great way to decorate a room is to use woven drapery - to do this, hang the beautiful fabric under the ceiling or on the wall. Tulle, organza, silk and other airy fabrics are suitable for this. It is desirable that the drapery and tablecloth with which the table will be covered be in the same style. You can hang beautiful bows made of material on the backs of chairs, and put festive napkins on the table.
If the size of the room allows, you can arrange white and red candles - this win-win combination evokes the most pleasant associations. You can decorate a mirror, window sill, or chest of drawers with compositions with candles. Drape the radiators with beautiful fabrics, you can attach original applications and colored paper to the wall - all kinds of butterflies, hearts, flowers will come in handy. You can tie ribbons with paper figures to a chandelier or lampshade, and tie multi-colored bows or ribbons to the furniture handles. Don’t forget about decorating your bedroom - then you will definitely have something to remember.
Confetti and rose petals are suitable accessories for decorating a bedroom or bride's room.
They create a very romantic atmosphere. They can also decorate a table with treats. Remember that artificial petals do not get dirty and do not lose their appearance, so they are very convenient to use.
We would like to note that when planning the decor of a room, it is worth thinking through everything down to the smallest detail. It’s very good when people manage to maintain a common style and color. The combination of contrasting elements seems interesting, the main thing is that they fit the overall concept of the holiday.
In our accessories store you will find a huge selection of various wedding decorations, ready-made or those that we will be happy to make to order.
Test 1
White traces are drawn with chalk towards the house: each step is an answer to a question. If the groom answered incorrectly, he takes a step back or pays a ransom if he does not want to waste time and moves one step forward. Questions may vary:
- How many years ago did you meet your fiancee?
- What color are your lover's eyes?
- What size shoes does she wear?
- Ring size on your right index finger?
- What did you give her for your last anniversary?
- How old is your father-in-law?
- What's your fiancée's favorite dish?
- Where was your first date and so on.
The groom reaches the threshold of the house, where he is met by a smiling father-in-law.
Father-in-law: - Once you got to the second test, you have a good memory, son. But now we will check whether you will be my daughter’s support and hope, whether you can cope with a man’s job?
Balloons as decor
You can use balloons for both a wedding and to decorate the bride’s room. This decor is considered a classic option for decorating various rooms, and is unlikely to ever go out of fashion.
Design options:
- To make the room look more stylish, the balls can be attached to doors and curtains, to the walls, but instead of regular air, you can fill them with gel, then they can be in free flight and rise to the ceiling. And you don't have to attach them specifically.
- If the bride has a large room, then try fixing helium balloons at any distance. You can also make a heart shape from the balloons.
- For small spaces, you can group the balls in one place, several at a time. For example, to a table, bed, or other place.
- You can use balloons to make various shapes, words, and wedding arches over doors.
- If you choose the color of the balls, they should not be very variegated; it is advisable to use several colors that will be in harmony with each other.
- Balls can be combined with other decorative elements, such as ribbons, fabric or flowers.
Wedding photos deserve a place
Another important moment for a young couple is wedding photographs. They must be present in the newlyweds’ bedroom in some quantity to remind them of the happiest day of their lives.
You can print one photo in large format with perfect quality and place it in a beautiful frame. Hang a few others on a spare neutral wall in the form of a triptych or puzzle picture. Over time, they will become real heirlooms for the new family, but for now let them hang and please the eye!

How to decorate the bride's apartment - the best ideas with photos
Just as the theater begins with a hanger, so the decoration of the apartment where the bride lives should begin with the entrance. Garlands of balloons and flowers attached to railings or walls will help guests, led by the groom, understand that they are on the right track. After all, their goal is, following traditions, to ransom the bride and pick her up for a trip to the registry office, where the culmination of the holiday will take place. There is always little time before the wedding, but you definitely need to find resources to thoroughly clean and decorate your apartment. After all, the appearance of the room where the bride lived is her “face”.
Decor with balloons
The most common bright way to create a festive atmosphere is to decorate the room with balloons. Popular colors are white and red, denoting the tenderness and ardent love of two hearts. The arch at the entrance to the apartment is a decoration that has stood the test of time. If the balloons are filled with helium, they will rush to the ceiling individually or in bunches. Balloons attached to curtains, door handles will create an additional cheerful mood. The variety of their shapes will allow you to make your choice. A more suitable option is the appearance of a heart.
Candles and rose petals
To create an unforgettable romantic pre-wedding atmosphere, be sure to use small candles and rose petals. With their help, decorate the path along which the groom will walk to the bride’s room. In the very room where his beloved will be waiting for him, place a heart with candles as a sign that it belongs only to him. General lighting should be turned off or dim. You will achieve even greater romance if you additionally scatter the petals throughout the room around the bride, including pieces of furniture.
Photos and posters
A very interesting approach to decorating a room is to create a photo collage with your own hands, in which the bride and groom are captured from the moment they met. The geography of their meetings and time spent together will help once again to remind you of those unforgettable moments of their lives that led to a common decision to start a family. Posters with wishes and jokes prepared by the bridesmaids will create an atmosphere of celebration and general fun.
Decoration with fresh flowers
No wedding can do without fresh flowers. If the bride has a good sense of humor, you can dress up cacti as the bride and groom. An abundance of fresh flowers will never be superfluous. In recent years, as a tribute to tradition, the fashion for decorating the bride’s hair with them has returned. The delicate fragrance emanating from the flowers will set you in a romantic mood. It is worth making sure that the flower arrangements decorating the bride’s room are in the same color scheme. This will create overall harmony in the image of the newlywed.
Decoration with voluminous pompoms
Unusual decoration with pom-poms is a hit in wedding decorations. Airy and voluminous paper flowers go perfectly with helium balloons, complementing each other. Pom-poms will become a bright accent of the holiday in the bride’s apartment and will add zest. If the wedding is taking place in the winter, and the cost of fresh flowers is not always affordable, delicate, weightless bright paper balls in the form of a bouquet will be a worthy way out of the situation when decorating the bride’s room.
Paper or glowing garlands
Add some flair to your room decor with a garland of paper lanterns. Their muted, soft light will be very appropriate when the groom arrives at the bride’s apartment. All that remains is to beautifully place this luminous strip in the room, and turn it on at the right moment! It’s easy to make such garlands yourself by gluing together lampshades of different shapes and sizes and putting one on each light bulb. Romantic decoration with lighting will add mystery and charm to the room. An additional decorative element for the doors or walls of the room will be ribbons of paper garlands.
Yard decoration for a wedding reception
During the warm season, the courtyard can accommodate the entire celebration, from festive tables to a photo zone for guests. In autumn or winter, the courtyard area is useful only for a photo shoot of the newlyweds and their friends.
The main part of the courtyard decorations is concentrated above the newlyweds’ table. Many photographs of the young couple will be taken against the backdrop of their festive corner.
- A projector can be placed above the newlyweds' table to display their romantic photos;
- An arch made of balloons, decorated with fabric and ribbons, is another option for decorating the young people’s area;
- You can make an arch with a metal or plastic frame and decorate it with artificial or fresh flowers. If the wedding is themed, for example, in yellow, you can use lemons, dandelions, golden buttons and pins for decoration;
- The newlyweds’ table can be decorated with LED lights, which will add romanticism and comfort to the feast;
For table setting, glasses for newlyweds are decorated using polymer clay, artificial flowers, rhinestones and paint. From fabric you can create glasses in the costumes of the bride and groom: covered with black fabric with a glued bowtie and buttons; covered in white chiffon fabric with sparkles and rhinestones; creatively decorate champagne bottles.
Hotel room
If for some reason it is impossible to arrange a meeting of the newlyweds at home, a hotel room will be the ideal option and a way out of the situation. When making a reservation, be sure to notify the property of your plans. Discuss with the manager the possibility of decorating the room. To avoid unwanted incidents. Will you be allowed to glue something to the walls and ceiling, attach garlands and any decor? But perhaps the hotel will have the opportunity to choose the color of the room itself that suits you best. In this case, fresh flowers and balloons will suffice for decoration.
And two more small but important tips. 1. Whatever the color scheme of your wedding, do not use too many or too bright colors to decorate the bride’s room. Calm, soft, pastel shades of 3-5 colors will create the perfect space. 2. Be sure to consult with the photographer about color and decor in general. His professional advice will help you not to overload the room and create the best possible background for your wedding photos.
Bride's room decor: decorating styles and techniques
There is a basic rule: it is worth decorating the bride’s room in the colors and style of the wedding. Of course, you need to take into account the features of the interior. If there are any details that you would like to hide, you can use a screen or fabric draperies. Or use both options at once - make a screen with your own hands from plywood or thick cardboard and cover it with fabric. The screen can be decorated with framed photographs of the bride and groom, photographs of the bride at significant moments in her life, or decorative elements related to the theme of the celebration. Subsequently, the same screen, if designed in a rather original way, can be used as a photo zone at a banquet.
There are several popular styles in which you can decorate a bride's room - they are suitable for any European-style wedding. We will conditionally call the first style “Farewell to childhood.” A girl becomes an adult not when she turns 18, but when she becomes the mistress of her own home and leaves her parents’. Therefore, in contrast, the bride’s room is decorated in an exaggeratedly girlish style. Plush toys, cute hearts, balloons, ribbons and bows and other little things like in the photo can decorate the bride's room.
The second style is Provençal, as well as the somewhat related shabby chic style. It will be appropriate in many interiors. Light pastel colors, an abundance of fresh flowers, stylish little things (a decorative birdcage, an unusual makeup mirror, cute photos in original frames). For the shabby chic style, not only natural but also artificial flowers are also appropriate, including in the form of prints on the bride’s robe or paintings on decorative plates decorating the walls.
A topiary would be a good decoration.
We will conditionally call the third style “hipster”. We are talking about simple and inexpensive decorations that you can make with your own hands from materials that you have on hand - multi-colored paper and ribbons. This technique is often used to decorate a space for a wedding photo shoot or off-site registration, but this hand-made item will look great as a decoration for the bride’s room.
As a result, the room is decorated with streamers with paper garlands with hearts, silhouettes of lovebirds, kissing newlyweds, and so on. Cutting stencils are easy to find on the Internet. Paper pompoms that hang from the ceiling look beautiful. The space in which the main action will take place can be fenced around the perimeter with a curtain of long multi-colored ribbons that are attached to the ceiling, or on a frame for a wedding arch - they will be a better background for photos than a closet or sideboard.
Another style is romantic. You should dim the lights in the bride's room, close the curtains or drape the window with thick fabric. And decorate the room with candles: thick candles of different heights are placed on the floor, on the table you can place a composition of floating candles in a glass vessel, candles in decorative candlesticks, heart-shaped candles, or simple round candles that form shapes or words. Candles go well with fresh flowers, you can also decorate everything with rose petals
It’s beautiful and romantic and allows you to place accents: do not brightly illuminate those interior details that you don’t want to draw attention to
Decoration of a private house for a wedding
Decorating a private home for a wedding event will begin, first of all, with general cleaning - the order must be perfect, with no dust, cobwebs, dirty windows, etc. You must try to free the interior space as much as possible from furniture so that guests can move around freely. Often, room decor is done with your own hands - this makes it possible to do everything to your taste, while saving a tidy sum.
Decorations often reflect the time of year the wedding is being held. Winter wedding decor can include fir branches, glass balls, garlands, and in the summer they often use compositions of fresh flowers that can be grown in your own garden plot. Autumn bouquets of multi-colored foliage with bright berries (artificial ones can be used) and burlap drapery elements will beautifully transform the interior of a wedding celebration
In addition to general interior decoration, you can design a separate corner for a photo shoot, or a platform for holding competitions.
Decorating your home with bouquets of fresh flowers
Most often, the wedding is held in the bride's home . Even if you plan to celebrate the occasion in a restaurant, the process will begin right here, when the groom comes to pick up his beloved to go to the registry office. Therefore, starting from the local area and ending with the rooms, the atmosphere should be festive, pleasing the guests and the heroes of the occasion themselves.
When thinking about how to decorate the bride's home, you need to choose a style and color palette. It is better to stick to soft light colors such as cream, beige, peach, which will fit perfectly into any interior.
Today's weddings, which often differ from generally accepted standards, also involve more extraordinary designs using bright contrasts
Drapery and flowers play a big role in decorating a home. It is better to decorate window openings with long, light floor-length curtains, emphasizing aristocratic solemnity. Tablecloths and chair covers are made to order. You can make them from light fabrics , decorating them with bright ribbons and bows of the corresponding color palette.
Chair covers and tablecloth for weddings
Compositions of fresh or artificial flowers can be used to decorate windows, cabinets, and a festive table. Installations of flowers and candles will look beautiful and will add some romance in the evening, during the taking out of the wedding cake or the first dance of the newlyweds. You can place vases in the corners, which will be filled with numerous donated bouquets of flowers.
Balloons will be a wonderful decoration for your home on this day. But here you need to take into account the height of the ceilings. If it is small, it is better to give preference to paper garlands in the form of hearts , flowers, which are made with your own hands from colored paper, postcards, photographs.
An important point is the design of the stairs, for which ribbons, bows, flowers, and green branches are used. Using light, airy materials such as tulle and chiffon, beautiful drapery is created on the railings, complemented by ribbon bows.
Decor of the stairs in the house with flowers
If the wedding is planned in the groom's house , it is necessary to demonstrate to the invitees wealth, indicating that the parents are giving their daughter to a person capable of providing for a future family. It is better to remove worn-out or defective furniture elements from the interior, as well as signs of bachelorhood. The groom's house should be clean and comfortable.
The presence of floristry is welcomed in the decor - small bouquets can be placed on tables and window sills. It is also fashionable to attach flowers to the staircase railings.
In addition to such decorations as panels from joint photos, compositions from balloons, large volumetric letters made with your own hands will be an original addition. From them you can form the names of the newlyweds, as well as words such as “love”, “family” in different languages.
Recommendations for decorating the bride's room
- Before you start decorating the bride’s room, you need to remember one rule: you should not use all the decorative elements at once. Because it will look very bulky and tasteless. And against the backdrop of an abundance of different decorations, the bride herself can get lost.
- Before you start decorating, consider the size of the room you are decorating. For example, with very low ceilings, balloons will make your room look even smaller. In small rooms, decorations made from heavy fabrics should not be used.
- For a small room, it is appropriate to use decorations in the form of small flower arrangements. Posters or banners with inscriptions and various stickers will look good. You can also come up with beautiful wedding-themed appliques.
If you are decorating the room yourself, then you need to think in advance about the options for how and what to attach the decorative elements to. For these purposes, it is recommended to use adhesive tape, tape, paper clips, hairpins and pins.
Decorating the newlyweds' bedroom: nuances and details
When you decorate your bedroom for your wedding night, try to consider two more points. First, think about the lighting in advance. In no case should it be limited by overhead light. Provide a beautiful night light or scented candles. If you opt for candles, buy thick candles that burn for a long time. Secondly, lay silk linen on the bed in white or soft pastel colors, or, in extreme cases, combine scarlet with cream. Avoid bright (orange, light green, yellow) and gloomy (black, brown, dark purple) tones, flashy and colorful colors.
Show your creativity and imagination! An elegantly or originally decorated bedroom for the newlyweds will certainly set a good tone for the atmosphere of the first wedding night, making it romantic and beautiful.
IN FRONT OF THE GATE
Guests came in large numbers from all distant volosts. At the parade, everyone is beautiful, It’s a miracle, it’s such a miracle! Come on, guests, don't grumble! Can I ask you a question? Why are you all surrounded by this house? What attracts you to this place? Answer me.
(Guests answer: Bride!)
Oh, bride, you say, Well, then don’t demand it. Prepare to give a ransom to take that bride away. There are too many guests in the house, but the owner of the house is the father-in-law. So worried, sick. If he doesn’t drink, he’ll die! You, guests, for the sake of decency, Yes, according to our custom, Give him some vodka - So that there is no grief in the house.
(The witness gives the ransom - vodka. If there is no vodka, you can say: “There is no vodka, say, So you pay dollars”)
Oh, and how my mother-in-law is crying! My daughter won't let me leave the house. But we will persuade her, if we give her champagne!
(The witness gives the ransom - champagne. If there is no champagne, you can say: “You didn’t take the champagne? Come on, they gave us the Euro!”)
Oh, and my girlfriends are roaring! Tears flow day and night! But they love candy, they'll give it for candy! If you take a closer look, there are exactly thirty-three aunts (!).
(The witness gives the ransom - candy. If there is no candy, you can say: “If you don’t have candy, give me gold coins!”).
THERE ARE TWO SIGNS ON THE GATE: “FOR SUCKERS” and “FOR GROOMS”
Witness (points to the sign “FOR GROOM”):
If you want to pass here, pay double the fare everywhere!
It is understood that the groom and his groomsmen go through the “FOR GROOM” gate, i.e. must further or immediately pay the “double tariff”.
Well, brave guests, if they are so clever, let's start the test. Here's your first task. Sing ditties to me loudly, The one who sings loudest will go into the house with me!
(sing ditties or pay money)
Room decoration options
There are many ways to create a festive atmosphere. Look at the photos with the most original options for decorating the bride’s room with your own hands.
Balloons are the most common.
You can simply inflate them and hang them from the ceiling, or, conversely, tie them to something heavy and fix them on the floor. You can create a beautiful composition in the shape of a heart. To decorate a room with balloons, it is better to use helium balloons.
Fairy lights.
All kinds of garlands look very romantic. They will suit any interior. You can cut out figures in the shape of hearts or flowers from paper, old photographs, cardboard, foil, or any other material that holds its shape well. Making such garlands is very simple. For this you need: material from which the garland elements will be cut, scissors, thread and a sewing machine. The shape and size of the blanks can be different, so it’s even more original. You can use lace, beads, and ribbons as decoration. As an example, we present a master class on how to make a paper garland with your own hands using a sewing machine.
The versatility of such garlands is that they can be mounted both horizontally and vertically. For example, in a doorway, or in a window.
An original version of the garland can be made from photographs. Use photos of the bride, or photos of her and the groom. All you need is to use clothespins (preferably wooden ones) to secure the photo on a rope or tape and stretch it along the wall.
The result will be not only a beautiful decoration, but also a story of love between young people. Guests will find it very interesting.
Corrugated paper decorations.
Wonderful pom-poms made of corrugated paper create an incredibly magical atmosphere. They can be made in different sizes and hung from the ceiling, as well as decorate a buffet table for guests. It’s very easy to make such lush and beautiful pom-poms with your own hands. For one product you will need:
- 9 sheets of thin paper (corrugated, packaging) measuring approximately 20x30 cm.
- Scissors.
- Wire or thick thread
Corrugated paper, if you choose it as the material, is most often sold in rolls. Therefore, you first need to cut it into several separate A4 fragments. The size, of course, can be any. The diameter of the future pompom will depend on the width of the sheet. Place the cut pieces in a stack.
Then fold the entire stack into an accordion shape 1.5-2 cm wide.
Next, using scissors, we shape the edges of the product. You can make them rounded, sharp, whatever you want.
Now we bend the wire in half and put a piece of paper in the middle.
Tighten the wire so that the pompom does not fall apart. Now you need to carefully straighten the “accordion” of paper on each side and form a fluffy pompom out of it.
A few minutes of your time and you get such a beautiful ball that can be used to decorate the bride’s room.
Look how beautiful it turns out if you combine different styles in decoration:
Decorate the room with garlands
Probably the most romantic decoration that will be appropriate for any wedding-style interior are garlands made in the shape of hearts. These are long ribbons or threads on which hearts are attached. They are cut from any materials that are available. It can be colored paper, cardboard, fabric or foil. You don’t need any special effort to prepare such garlands; everything is done very easily and simply. Look at the photo.

You can hang these garlands in any direction. Place them vertically along doorways, and hang them horizontally under the ceiling, along walls and windows.
When making such hearts, it is not necessary to adhere to the same shape and color. As a palette, use several shades. Raspberry, cherry, pink, white, and blue colors are suitable for decorating a room.
The hearts themselves can be decorated with glitter and beads. The main thing is not to overdo it, everything should be in moderation.
Scenario options for ransom
There are a lot of options on how to conduct a bride price in a private house, because country life is more fun and varied than city life. This is explained by the fact that our grandparents lived in distant outbacks and know everything about wedding traditions. To this day, their competition options do not leave even the saddest guests indifferent.
The bride ransom in the village should be carried out only after the room has been decorated. It is necessary to organize the decoration of the room, yard and house based on the theme of the wedding. For example, in the Russian style: wooden spoons, pancakes, old large moonshine bottles and so on. Everything should be reminiscent of “those” times.
Each competition has a name. “Guess the Riddle” is very popular. For this competition we will need about 3-5 riddles and traces cut out of thick cardboard. They need to be laid out in the yard at a large distance (a little more than a meter so that the groom can take a big step). When the footprints are laid out, the young man must step with one foot on the small footprint and guess the riddle. If he guessed right, he steps on the next footprint with his second foot. Otherwise, to go further, you must pay money. Do not forget that there should be no more than five riddles and traces.
"Call me, love." The essence of this task is that the groom must call his beloved, but for a reason. For the competition, you need to make several ribbons with letters, on which the future husband will come up with affectionate words in order to shout to his chosen one. For example:
- E is the only one.
- Oh - charming.
- N - extraordinary.
- M - sweetheart.
- L - favorite and so on.
"Portrait of a Beloved." The point is simple - draw the best possible portrait of your future wife. But who said that you can only draw with pencils and felt-tip pens? To make the task more difficult and more fun, you can choose other drawing methods. For example, lay out a portrait from coins or create a whole creation with sand (or grain).
"Test of Agility" There is nothing complicated in the task - you just need to go through the threads stretched between the trees for the groom and his friends. There are other ways to test the dexterity of your future son-in-law. For example, using darts and balloons. The more it bursts, the faster it will reach its beloved.
"Strength competition". Before choosing this competition, it is worth considering how strong the future son-in-law is. It is best if the task is carried out by the father-in-law or mother-in-law, citing the fact that they will not give their daughter to the weak. There are many variations of this test, but generally it is performed with either a nail or a log. In the first case, the groom must hammer the nail with one blow, and in the second, he must move or remove the log from the door behind which the bride is waiting.
"Looking for the Key." The task is quite original, since it contains two tests at once - accuracy and ingenuity. Before the competition, you need to inflate balloons and put in one of them the key to the bride’s room, and in the others something similar in weight and size, along with a piece of paper on which the letter will be written. If the groom bursts the balloon containing the key, he can open the room without any problems. But if the balloons contain leaves with a letter, then the groom must give a compliment to his betrothed for this letter.
Hint: Some people put a fake key in a ball, thereby making fun of the groom when he cannot open the door.

DIY decoration of the bride's house for ransom
According to tradition, the future husband visits the bride's house before the registry office. At this moment, the so-called bride ransom takes place - no less exciting and fun event than the wedding banquet. During the event, the groom will see his future wife in a wedding dress for the first time and prove that he is worthy of his chosen one by passing several comic tests.
As a rule, the ransom is organized by the bridesmaids. It is they who are responsible for preparing competitions, poems and tests for the groom. Another question that worries us on the eve of the event is how to decorate the bride’s house for ransom?
From time immemorial
During the times of the primitive communal system, when the ancient tribes lived in isolation and were in a state of internecine wars, it was customary to take wives from another clan. This guaranteed the birth of stronger and more viable offspring. However, the neighbors were in no hurry to part with their grown daughters or sisters.
As a result, the bride was usually either stolen or obtained in the process of battle. However, there was another way - to buy the girl you liked.
Over time, intertribal issues began to be resolved primarily peacefully. The ransom ritual has also changed. They began to come up with all sorts of tests for the groom, which would reveal how strong, savvy, generous, kind and pliable he was.
Pros and cons of a home wedding
Every medal has two sides. Also, any event can combine pros and cons. This also applies to a wedding party at home. To avoid regretting your decision in the future, think about it in advance. What are the advantages of such a chamber event?
– there are only your closest and dearest people around, sincerely rejoicing at your happiness;
– a familiar environment that helps you feel more comfortable and relaxed;
– an opportunity to save on expensive meals and entertainment; it is better to spend this money on arranging a cozy nest, or a honeymoon. By the way, recently many couples are going exactly this way.
Among the disadvantages of such a celebration:
– inability to invite a large number of guests due to limited space;
– the prospect of decorating the apartment and preparing holiday dishes, and then putting things in order on your own;
– not a very comfortable option for a wedding in the summer heat.
If all of the above hasn't changed your decision to host your wedding party at home, then start planning!
Video: how to decorate the bride's house for ransom
The wedding day begins, as a rule, in the bride's house, where the groom arrives to pick up (buy) his beloved and take her to his place. Therefore, the environment in which the future husband will be met must correspond to the event. The bride's house needs decoration not only inside. You also need to take care of the wedding decorations outside (starting from the gate or entrance door). Large decorations (balloons, huge paper pompoms, garlands) are suitable for this - something that can be seen from afar. We invite you to see how to create a festive atmosphere in the bride's house in the video clip presented.
Decorate the room with candles
Decorating with candles is more suitable for the dark time of the day, but usually the wedding takes place during the day or in the morning, so the room can be slightly darkened. To do this, you will need a thick curtain or fabric that you use to cover the window in the room and turn off the lights. Such an environment will look very romantic and magical.
If you choose small flat candles for decoration, place them in transparent containers with water. If you are afraid that a fire may occur, then real candles can be replaced with electric ones.
To make it more romantic, place them in the shape of a heart in some darkened corner. Candles can be decorated with glitter or small ribbons.

Not only her apartment should be decorated, but also the entrance itself in which she is located, as in the photo. Here it is best to use not flowers or fabric, but many colorful balloons. Garlands are made from them, a decorative arch is built, and balls are tied to the railings of stairs.
This is where flowers, fabric, letters or signs cut out of cardboard would be appropriate.
You can write the names of the bride and groom on them, inform everyone that today is a wedding, or simply congratulate the newlyweds.
Posters and cardboard letters that spell out the words “LOVE”, “WEDDING”, “CONGRATULATIONS!” attached to walls, decorating them and hiding minor defects on the surface. Garlands made from paper figures or pom-poms also look great on windows, railings and even on the walls of the entrance.
The stair railings themselves can be wrapped in fabric and fresh flowers can be attached to it, and the steps can be covered with a carpet.
From this video you will learn how to decorate the bride's room beautifully:
Not only guests invited to the wedding can attend the bride price. Often neighbors also take part in this festive event. Fun should start from the threshold, so you need to take care of the original decoration of the entire entrance, starting with its front door. If the holiday begins long before the marriage is registered, the celebration will remain in the memory of the participants and guests for a long time.

Column one: who is responsible for what
It is short-sighted to load the organization on one person. The best option is to appoint a coordinator (friend, relative, colleague), who should plan everything from “a” to the last letter and distribute responsibilities. The future wife, of course, can tell you how to decorate the room for the bride price with photos of her childhood, balloons, posters, but at the event itself she will not have time for design.
Ideally, you should end up with something like this:
- Lyusya, Kolya - entrance decor.
- Valya, Natasha - interior decoration.
- Maria Ivanovna knows how to set the table for the bride price.
- Competitions on Irinka, Lena, Petya.
Each item is accompanied by a list of necessary attributes that must be purchased or made in advance.
