Chamomile game at a wedding. Chamomile competition for bride price

At the door of the house (if the house is multi-story, at the entrance to the entrance), the groom and his friends are met by friends and guests of the bride.

Leading:
Hello, guests gentlemen,
Where are you from and where?
If you're passing by, just pass by,
If you come to us, tell us why.

The groom and his friends answer:
For the bride.

Leading:
For the bride. That's great.
We are waiting for you, our clear falcon.
Yes. We have a bride
It's impossible to take your eyes off.
Young, slim, beautiful,
Whiteface, everyone is amazed.
But in order to win her hand,
You need to work hard.
After these words, the groom and his friends enter the door and see, oddly enough, steps.

Leading:
There are many tender words in the world,
And the bride deserves them.
You walk up the steps
And call the bride tenderly.

The groom is offered the first test. He must climb the stairs (if the house is multi-story, up to the first floor). At each step of the stairs, the groom affectionately calls his betrothed. The task can be complicated by writing a letter on each step and inviting the groom to affectionately name his bride with this letter. If he cannot come up with anything for a given letter, the witness and the rest of the groom’s friends pay a ransom. After this, the groom moves to the next step, etc.

When the groom overcomes this obstacle, he is offered the following. The bridesmaid holds a chamomile in her hands. On each petal of this chamomile, memorable dates for the future newlyweds are written in advance. This could be the date the bride and groom met, the hour of their first date, the waist size or shoe size of the bride, and even the age of the future mother-in-law.

Leading:
Here is a field chamomile,
Tear off a petal
Guess the number.

After these words, the groom tears off the chamomile petals one by one and guesses one or another memorable number. If he cannot guess what any number is associated with, then he pays a ransom. As soon as the ransom amount suits the bride's guests, the groom tears off the next petal. The test ends when the chamomile is left without petals.

If the groom has completed this test with dignity, he is passed on. (When the ransom takes place in a multi-story building, the groom is allowed to take the elevator to the bride's floor or must walk if the bride's friends are unhappy with the ransom or the way the groom guessed the memorable numbers).

A bridesmaid stands at the bride's door and holds a large piece of paper in her hands. On this sheet, the bride and her bridesmaids leave imprints of their lips in advance.

Leading:
You see these lips.
Can you guess it or not?
Where is your beloved's footprint?

The groom is looking for the imprint of his bride's lips. The task can be complicated by writing a certain amount under each print. In this case, the groom or his friends pay the specified ransom for all incorrectly guessed lips. This test may be accompanied by playful reproaches. The competition continues until the groom guesses the lips of his betrothed.

After the task is completed, leading offers the following:
The door is closed on the way,
We need to find the key to the door.
Serenade, song of love,
You do it and pass.

The groom must sing a song. If he refuses, then friends help. If friends also refuse, then a ransom is paid. Its amount should completely satisfy the bride's guests.

When this task is completed or the ransom is paid, the door opens and the groom finds himself in front of the next locked door.

Leading:
Isn't the groom lame?
Come on, stomp your foot.

The groom stomps.

Leading:
Don't make people laugh,
Dance a gypsy song for us.

If an accordion player is present at the wedding, he performs the gypsy song. If there is no accordion player, then the tape recording starts. The groom dances a gypsy dance or pays a ransom to the laughter and jokes of the guests.

Leading:
The beautiful bride loves fun,
Dance not alone, but with everyone!

The groom's friends and he himself perform the gypsy or pay a large ransom.

Leading:
For my dear bride -
Champagne bottle.
For the beautiful wife -
Chocolate "Alenushka"
For a long dress -
A bottle of wine.
So as not to go to someone else's cutie,
Give me some paper money.

After these words, the groom and his friends pay the ransom, the guests can jokingly shout out: “You don’t pay enough, you see, you want to go to someone else’s cutie,” “Don’t be stingy, give more!” etc.

After the ransom is paid, the groom is offered the next task.

Leading:
In this bunch is the key to the door,
Can you find him?
If you took the wrong one, pay.

The groom is given a bunch of keys, from which he removes the keys one by one and tries to open the door with one key or another. For every key that does not fit the door, the groom and his friends pay a ransom. The competition ends when the required key is found and the door is open.
The door opens. The groom and his guests see a table blocking the corridor.

Leading:
What's your bride's name?
Write in money.
Show me how you write it!

The groom is asked to write his bride's full name in money. He lays it out with money on the table. This action is accompanied by jokes like “Write bigger!” etc. After the groom completes the task, the table is cleared.

Leading:
You paid money generously
But he didn’t talk about love.
So that no one doubts
Confess your love!
Shout loudly without melting,
(name of the bride)! I love you!

The groom screams and the guests judge. There may be exclamations: “Something is quiet!”, “The bride doesn’t hear anything!” etc. The groom shouts a declaration of love until the guests are satisfied.

In front of the door of the room where the bride is, the groom sees a basin.

Leading:
Here. You see this basin.
Put it in now
Neither kid nor lamb,
Not a skinny pig.
Put it for the bride
What does she need for her soul?

Of course, the groom will not be able to immediately guess what exactly should be put in the basin, and a comical situation will arise. But the test will last until the groom realizes that he himself must stand in the basin.

After the groom has passed this test, he sees several ribbons peeking out from under the door where the bride is. In the room, the bride and her bridesmaids are tied to these ribbons by the finger. And for more fun, you can tie, for example, a neighbor of retirement age to some ribbon. If the groom pulls the ribbon and pulls out this same matryon, it will be a laugh.

Leading:
Pull one ribbon
And pull out your betrothed.
If you pull out the wrong one,
Pay us money.
Or marry the one
What will you pull behind you?
The competition with laughter and jokes continues until the groom pulls out his bride. When he makes a mistake, the guests loudly ask for ransom or tell the groom that he must marry the one who came out from behind the door.

After the bride is finally guessed, the future newlyweds walk hand in hand to the table, and then it turns out that the bride is missing one shoe.

Leading:
You are going with your bride,
How will you marry her?
I don't have one shoe,
Find her, hero!

Several shoe boxes are offered to the groom's attention. One of them contains the bride's shoe. For a laugh, you can put torn slippers, galoshes or felt boots in the remaining boxes. For each incorrectly guessed box, the groom pays a ransom. The test lasts until the groom finds his betrothed shoe.

When the groom finally overcomes all obstacles on the path to his happiness, leading speaks:
Passed the test
You've reached the bride!
And that's why now
You take the bride to the registry office!

The future newlyweds go to the table, where they receive congratulations and wishes from the guests.

If you decide to arrange a bride ransom, there is no need to delay it too much; 10-15 minutes is the best option. When thinking through ransom competitions, think about whether your chosen one is able to complete this or that task. We offer a list of competitions from which you can choose those that will appeal to both you and the groom.

Redemption competition "Guess the finger"

The groom must recognize the bride by the finger on which he is going to put the ring. They pull the sheet up and several girls show one finger.

Redemption competition "Wallpaper"

You can paste wallpaper to the entrance to the bride's room. And pretend that there are no more rooms. And when the groom breaks through the wallpaper, take a ransom for the damage caused to the apartment.

Redemption competition "Romashka"

A bridesmaid stands in the way of the groom with a chamomile in her hands. On each petal of this daisy, memorable numbers for the young are written in advance. It can be:
- date the bride and groom met
- the hour of their first date
- year of birth of the future mother-in-law, father-in-law
- bride's waist size
- future wife's shoe size
- number of best friends of the bride
- bride's birthday
- bride's height
- the height of the stiletto heels of her party shoes
- number of expected children in the family
- bride's ring size
- bride’s weight in grams
- favorite song of the future mother-in-law
- the bride's favorite number...

The groom must, by tearing off a petal, guess what this or that memorable number means. For each incorrectly guessed task, the groom pays a ransom. The wedding competition ends only when all the petals are torn off from the daisy.

Redemption competition "Find the shoe"

The groom enters the bride's room - but she is without shoes! You need to guess which box this shoe is in (you can put slippers and a man's shoe in the other boxes).

Redemption competition "Pull the string"

The bride, two or three bridesmaids and the grandmother are locked in a room. When the groom approaches a locked room, he sees several strings (their number depends on the number of people in the room) peeking out from under the closed door of the room. The other end of these strings is tied to the fingers of the people in the room. When the groom pulls a thread, the one to which the given thread was tied approaches him. The host of the wedding competition says: “Take her as your wife or pay tribute.” The competition continues until the groom guesses his bride or makes a new decision: to marry the bridesmaid.

Redemption competition "Staircase"

An obstacle appears in front of the groom - a staircase. Place a pre-cut paper footprint on the steps. For greater difficulty they can be very small and spaced far apart. The groom, climbing the stairs, must step exactly on the footprint. If this does not work out, the groom and his friends pay a ransom. The task can be complicated by gluing footprints on the walls (the witness must help the groom step on the footprints by lifting him in his arms).

Buyout competition "Household chores"

There are signs with abbreviations on the stairs indicating housekeeping tasks. The groom must guess what they mean. Here are the options:

MP - wash dishes
SB - wash clothes
PC - vacuum cleaning the apartment
MO - wash windows
PP - wipe dust
X to M - go to the store
VD - raise children
ZD - make money
Salary - make the bed
DR - make repairs
GB - ironing clothes

Competition for ransom "Thread"

There is a thread stretched across the entrance door, you can’t gnaw it, you can’t crawl over it, you can’t touch it, but the groom must pass through. What to do? The thread needs to be cut. This ransom competition is best done at the end. And at the beginning of the ransom, let the peddler friend offer to buy all sorts of little things, including matches. If he doesn’t think of buying it, he’ll pay exorbitant prices later.

Competition for ransom "Tears"

To make fewer tears flow in a marriage, you need to shed them now. There is a glass in front of the groom with a little water in it. You need to make sure that the water overflows over the edge, but you cannot touch the glass. The groom puts as many coins as possible into the glass.

Competition for ransom "Guess the melody"

The bride comes up with a song in advance that she would like to hear performed by the groom. The girlfriends are asked to guess the melody, as is done in the program of the same name by Valdis Pelsh. There is a fee for each note. More notes, more pay. Girlfriends hum notes. If the groom couldn’t guess, then let him buy more sheet music, but at double the price, because he was stingy at the beginning.

Competition for the redemption of CAMOMILE

The host or bridesmaid stands in the way of the groom with a chamomile in his hands. On each petal of this chamomile, memorable numbers for the young are written in advance. It can be:
- date the bride and groom met;
- the hour of their first date;
- year of birth of the future mother-in-law, father-in-law;
- waist size of the bride;
- future wife's shoe size;
- number of best friends of the bride;
- bride's birthday;
- height of the bride;
- the height of the stiletto heels of her party shoes;
- the number of expected children in the family;
- bride's ring size;
- bride’s weight in grams;
- favorite song of the future mother-in-law;
- the bride’s favorite number;
- the number of guests invited to the wedding;
- age of the witness and witness;
- the amount of money that the future wife would like to have every day for small expenses. That is, tasks can be very diverse and unexpected. The groom must, by tearing off a petal, guess what this or that memorable number means. For each incorrectly guessed task, the groom pays a ransom. The competition ends only when all the petals are torn off from the chamomile.

The origins of this bride price test go back a long way. Previously, the groom's path to his betrothed's house was blocked by a log placed on special trestles, which he had to cut down. Now the “heroic power” of a young man can be experienced in various ways.

For example:
- ask him to hammer the nail with one blow;
- lift dumbbells or weights several times;
- do push-ups from the floor;
- pick up a witness;
- break a thin thread or rope;
- jump on one leg;
- squat several times on one leg;
- tell what sports he played;
- ask for a promise to carry your wife in your arms for the rest of your life;
- pick up your mother-in-law.

During this test, jokes pour in: “Look, the groom took a hammer in his hands for the first time,” “Oh, it’s hard for him, it’s hard,” “Well done to the groom!”, Wow, what a strong man, he hammered a nail with one blow!” , “He will be a good husband!” If the groom refuses to complete any task or simply fails to complete it, his friends help him. And if they refuse or fail to complete the task, then the ransom amount is set by the bride’s guests.

Bride price SPONGE competition

To conduct this competition, take a large sheet of paper on which all the bridesmaids and the bride herself leave imprints of their lips. The groom must find the desired imprint of lips - the lips of his bride. The competition ends when he correctly guesses his bride's lips.

You can complicate this test somewhat, for example, force not only girls, but also men to put on lipstick and kiss a piece of paper. In this case, an incorrectly guessed fingerprint will not only serve as a reason to demand money from the groom, but will also amuse people - the groom chose not his betrothed as his bride, but a neighbor or grandfather.

If all the men refused to wear lipstick, then you can try to persuade the women to put on lipstick of the same color, so that the groom, looking at their faces, will not guess who has which lip prints. There is no point in making his fate easier, let him suffer.

Wedding competition STEP ON ME

An obstacle appears in front of the groom - a staircase. On each of its steps (if the house is multi-story, you can do it one, two, three steps) place a pre-cut paper trail. For greater difficulty it can be very small. The groom, climbing the stairs, must step exactly on the footprint. If this does not work out, the groom and his friends pay a ransom.

The task can be complicated. For example, having stepped on each footprint, the groom must somehow affectionately call his betrothed, which again is not so easy. The test ends when the ladder is completely climbed.

RUSHING, RINGING, SPLATING

On the way of the groom, the host or bridesmaid stands in front of the door with an empty glass in his hands. When the groom, having overcome all obstacles, approaches, he is approached with the following task:

Put something that rustles into this glass
When he fulfills this desire and puts as much money into the glass as suits the guests, the host says the following task:
Now put what rings in this glass.
When the groom completes this task, he is given the following:
Put whatever spills out into this glass.
The groom must fill it with wine.
If the groom does not fulfill any wish, then the previous one is offered to him again. For example, the presenter says:
Put what is spilling out into this glass
The groom answers: And the host says:
Then put what rustles into the glass again

AIR BARRIER

After the groom finds the key and opens the door, he is faced with another test. In the opening of an open door, he encounters a wall of inflatable balloons. The groom can overcome this obstacle in two ways: he must either puncture all the balloons with the help of his friends, or pay a ransom, which will arrange for the guests to remove the barrier of balloons in the groom’s path.

Ransom quest FIND THE KEY

Several inflated balloons are tied in front of the door to the bride's house. Inside each ball there is a piece of paper with an inscription. On one of the pieces of paper write “key”, and on the rest - some kind of ransom. Overcoming this obstacle, the groom must burst the balloon. If there is a ransom note in the ball, then he pays. The test continues until the groom finds a ball with a piece of paper on which "key" is written.

Competition CATCH A FISH

The bride, two or three bridesmaids and the grandmother are locked in a room. When the groom approaches a locked room, he sees several strings (their number depends on the number of people in the room) peeking out from under the closed door of the room. The other end of these strings is tied to the fingers of the people in the room. When the groom pulls a thread, the one to which the given thread was tied approaches him. The host of the competition says: “Take her as your wife or pay tribute.” The competition continues until the groom guesses his bride or makes a new decision: to marry the bridesmaid

FEW! FEW!

Having overcome previous obstacles, the groom finally approaches his cherished goal - he sees his bride, but she is sitting at a wide table, to which the guests and girlfriends of his betrothed do not allow him. Children should be seated on each side of the bride. After the presenter says:

To approach your betrothed, you must overcome the last obstacle, i.e. put money on each corner of the table and in its middle,
– children should knock loudly on the table with their hands or rolling pins, sweeping money already placed under the table and repeating
Few!!! Few!!! Put more!!!

Redemption competition FIND A SHOE


When the groom overcomes all obstacles and finally finds the bride, it turns out that she does not have a shoe. He is asked to find her. Several boxes of shoes are placed somewhere in a secluded place. The groom must guess the one that contains the bride's shoe. For each incorrectly guessed box of shoes, the groom pays a ransom. The test ends when the groom finds his betrothed's shoe and elegantly puts it on his beloved's foot.

Dear brides and bridesmaids!
There is a great way to replace the bride's cash ransom with the groom's promises.
It will be much more interesting and fun, in addition, the bride has a great chance to pamper herself with little whims after the wedding!

If the groom does not know the correct answer to a question or answers not entirely accurately, then he pays a ransom. The test ends only when the groom is successful, i.e. Having answered questions or paid a ransom that will satisfy the bride's guests, he will overcome the last step of the stairs.

open the door

Take a large jar, place the keys at the bottom and fill it with compote (or other opaque drink, but it should not be jelly, as the groom will simply choke on it in a hurry).

The groom, with the help of a witness and other guests, must drink the entire contents of the jar. If the groom does not finish his drink for any reason, he pays as much as the bride’s friends or relatives tell him. After which the groom is given a key, with which he opens the closed door to the bride’s room.

You can complicate this task, for example, fill not one jar with compote, but two or tory mugs of different sizes. Invite the groom to choose one of the bottoms and drink. If there is no key at the bottom, then he has to decide whether he can handle two more mugs (or one) or whether he will have to turn to his friends for help. You can, of course, pay a ransom, but usually guests insist that the key be found in a practical way.

Important note: before throwing your keys into the compote, do not forget to wash them thoroughly. And be sure to give the groom the opportunity (after he buys the bride, but before the happy couple leaves) to go to the toilet, otherwise the wedding ceremony will seem unbearable to him (after a liter of compote, this is no wonder!).

Call me, darling

A leaflet in the form of an announcement is attached to the door leading to the bride's room. In the center of the ad is a colorful inscription: “Call me, beloved!” Below this advertisement is cut into strips. Tearing off each strip, the groom must somehow call his bride. The competition can be complicated: for example, write a letter on each strip and ask the groom to call the bride with any epithet for this letter, or do not allow the groom to think for more than 5 seconds.
If he cannot call his betrothed with an epithet for this letter or thinks for more than 5 seconds, then a ransom is paid. The test continues until the bride responds.

Power of love

For this test, the groom will need a wet towel prepared in advance. The host or one of the bride's guests hands this towel to the groom and says: “Tie the towel as tightly as you will love your future wife.” Of course, the groom will tighten the towel with all his might. At this time, the guests support the groom so that he ties the towel as tightly as possible.
After this, the host, to the approving exclamations of the guests, says: “Now untie the towel as quickly as you can quickly air out your quarrels from the house.” The groom will try to quickly untie the towel he tied, and the situation turns out to be comical.

Bargaining with brother

The bride's brother stands in the way of the groom and a conversation ensues that goes something like this:
- Why are you standing here?
- I'm taking care of my sister.
- She is not yours, but ours.
- How can you prove it?
It is very interesting to hear how the groom will justify his statement. He can explain that he is going to marry her, that he loves her, and so on, but the brother should not immediately give up and agree with the groom. Instead, he can ask the guests for their opinion:
Well, is it convincing?
Most often, guests shout that this is not enough, let him try to explain again. It’s good if the groom guesses to say that the bride belongs to him because they love each other (that is, not only he her, but she also him!). Then the brother gives up and says:
Well, if she's yours, then pay me the ransom.
The bride's brother does not leave until the groom or his friends pay the ransom.
