Ransom in gypsy style
This one is the most fun and danceable.
Of course, it requires matching bridesmaid costumes, but it's worth it. The bridesmaids will need to meet the groom and his retinue with noisy dancing and singing, while not forgetting to demand that the handle be gilded. The groom should be asked to light up to cheerful music, wish him a happy family life, of course for a certain fee, and then you can let him in to the bride! Idea No. 6.
It would be good to choose an interesting place for the ransom. Carrying out a ransom in high-rise buildings can be replaced by a ransom on an estate, or in a park, or on the back side of the house; the original would be to hold a ransom on the roof of the house, or on the threshold of the registry office. Well, the most in love groom can even get to his beloved through the window!
Idea No. 7
The ransom is based on the common hobbies of the newlyweds, or the hobbies of the bride or groom. You need to know exactly what young people are interested in.

Idea #8
Original ideas for bride ransom can be brought to life by creating a scenario called “In Search of Treasures.”

You can come up with different places with competitions or parts of the map. This could be a young couple’s favorite cafe, a bus stop where they often met, a bush under which they kissed.

When?,” “The Last Hero,” “Fort Bayard,” “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?,” and even “Fashionable Sentence.” The videographer will capture all the characters and edit the video exactly according to the broadcast script.
For example, let’s take the program for experts “What? Where? When?" The groom and his retinue will act as experts, and questions will come from the bride’s relatives.

Idea No. 12.
Instead of a ransom, a great idea would be to draw a fairy tale show.
The bride can be turned into a princess living in a dense forest. Guests, in the form of forest evil spirits, will test the groom, test his heroic strength, wisdom of thoughts, dexterity, resourcefulness and courage.
You can play a variety of roles: goblin, kikimora - temptress, fairy. All costumes can be rented, or you can make them yourself. The fabulousness will be given by the confetti that each fairy-tale resident will scatter when meeting the groom.

It could be "Prisoner of the Caucasus", and the ransom will be Coward, Dunce and Experienced, while using phrases from the film.

Idea No. 14
BRIDE RANDOM IN MILITARY STYLE
This theme is suitable for grooms who served in the army, or are military personnel and respect military traditions. The bridesmaid and bridesmaids need to dress up in military uniform and, when meeting the groom, give him a course as a young fighter to make sure that the groom is fit for family life.
To do this, you can hold several interesting competitions: start the ransom with a medical examination, then the oath will follow, a competition for fire training using darts, a test of artillery abilities (shooting at balloons) and the final competition can be a competition for the physical training of the groom. Which will help convince everyone that the bride is truly being given into safe hands. After successfully passing the tests, the groom is allowed into the bride's room!

BRIDE RANDOM IN MINISTRY OF Emergencies STYLE
This is a truly original idea for an unconventional buyout. But the groom and his groomsmen should not reveal their ideas ahead of schedule.

Wedding banquet

Choose a toastmaster who knows and loves football, carefully read his program, check whether everything in it corresponds to the football theme. By the way, the toastmaster-fan can add many valuable suggestions that you should not refuse. His hosting of the banquet should take place in the rhythm and style of a football report, which will add a lot of interesting moments to the celebration.
You don’t have to dress up your adoring grandmother in a T-shirt with the number of your favorite player and make her shout: “Spartak is the champion!” or “Judge the judge!” But you can add a little football symbolism to her outfit.

The entire organization of the wedding is in your hands, all innovations and improvement of style depend only on your imagination.

Bride kidnapping and ransom
Not a single wedding can take place without the kidnapping of the bride; this is a long-standing tradition and should not be broken. And adding eccentricities and excitement is sometimes simply necessary, especially in a themed wedding. As soon as messengers come to the groom and the witness, tired of the fruitless search for the missing beloved, demanding a ransom, the procedure can be turned into a fascinating competition.
Here you can arrange a test of the football potential of both, arranging an interrogation with a predilection for knowledge of the history of your favorite club, football rules, and the predilections of your young wife for a particular team.
Funny dance ransom of the bride: meeting the groom
A modern bride price should be as creative and unusual as possible, so that the groom and guests are left with only positive emotions after it. Meeting the groom is an important part of the entire wedding, because the mood of the guests and newlyweds depends on the first impression.
The bridesmaids greet the groom: “Hello, dear groom. Have you come for the bride? Wait, we won’t give you the beauty just like that, you’ll have to try, dance a lot and smile. Today there will be a lot of movement, get ready for a charge of good mood!
Further, according to the scenario of the original bride price, the bridesmaids perform their own dance so that the groom and his friends can tune in to dance competitions and games, and then they say: “Well, groom, did you like our dance? Get ready to dance, don’t be shy to participate in competitions!”
Next, the bridesmaids hold music and dance competitions and quizzes for the groom and his “male retinue.” If the ransom takes place in a private home, games can be played outdoors. If the ceremony takes place in the entrance, the groom can be given a new task on each floor.
