Scenario matchmaking - will decorate the birth of a new family

In our time, few people follow the traditions of matchmaking before the wedding. Now, for this, the consent of the bride itself is enough, at times even without the intervention of the parents. But since the wedding is a very important holiday in the life of the bride and groom, why not arrange a matchmaking, following the traditions of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers. A well-considered scenario of matchmaking will allow it to be done at the highest level.

Once, everything was decided by parents who had the right to refuse to dislike the groom without discussing this matter with their daughter. This state of affairs was the law in every family, and the daughter had no right to contradict the parents.

To interestingly organize the matchmaking of the bride, the script can be, for example, such. After discussion on the family council of all the details of the custom with parents and godparents, the groom sends to the house girls matchmakers, in whose role are all the same godparents or other close relatives. Their main task is to obtain the consent of the parents of the girl to marry her to their fiancé.

For example, in the beginning the matchmaking scenario involves observing some peculiar rituals and customs. At the groom of the house put the matchmakers on a chair and bandage his legs, and behind the matchmakers throw a worn boot. This is all so that the parents of the bride do not give a negative answer.

Before leaving the house, matchmakers kneel at the icons and, wiping them with a clean towel, read the wedding plot. This will provide future couples with long and happy joint years of life in love and harmony.

In the house of the bride the matchmakers sit on a chair in such a way that their feet stand on the path that leads to the exit from the house. And they begin to call their parents in about these words: "We are merchants, and you have goods that are very necessary for us". Further, the matchmaking scenario develops in the vein of a casual, cheerful conversation about the groom, about how good and wonderful he is, how perfect the bride is.

After that, the owners of the house invite guests to the "negotiating table", to cover and serve which better in the style of the time when all the traditions of this custom were observed. You can serve wooden tables instead of usual spoons, and serve hot dishes not in plates, but in clay pots.

After discussing the details of the wedding, as the script of matchmaking provides, bridesmaids are arranged. Then let the girl's parents prepare in advance those things that they will show as a dowry. Now it is the turn of the bride's parents to praise her, telling her about her kindness, beauty, and her husbandliness.

If everything suits both sides, then the date of the wedding is discussed, after which everyone goes home.

Or, for example, the script of matchmaking is much simpler for many. After receiving the consent of the bride, the groom comes to her house, having previously bought gifts for parents and flowers to the girl and her mother. Then, standing on one knee, he asks for her hand. Tells her parents about himself, how reliable, responsible, how much they love their daughter and will take care of her. After that, the girl's father bandages the arms of the bride and groom. Further - a cheerful feast with enthusiastic discussions of the upcoming life together of lovers. During the break, the groom makes an official offer of the hand and heart and gives the bride a ring.

The script of the bride's matchmaking does not have any special differences from how the groom's marriage is organized . Gathering at the bride's groom's house, the bride and her close relatives should also not forget about the acquisition of gifts for the members of the family of the future husband. A must-have attribute is a chic bouquet of flowers directly for your future mother-in-law. Further all also passes in the course of a noisy and cheerful feast with songs and jokes. And the result is the appointment of the date of the wedding.
