The II All-Russian Wedding Festival was held at the National Centre RUSSIA and featured official marriage ceremonies for over 200 couples, along with a series of celebratory events.

Festival partners presented the newlyweds with gifts. For example, the brides took home modern handmade kokoshniks from the brand "Patriotka" by Tatiana Krancheva — not just an accessory, but a symbol of generational continuity, family values, and cultural legacy.

The perfumed cosmetics brand "Ovsyannikov" gifted couples a skincare set, with packaging bearing the meaningful phrase: "The perfect duet is hearing and feeling each other." The set included two products: gel soap and hand cream, each in a 300 ml volume.

Kira-Lin Nesterovich, a bride from Yakutia, shared her impressions.

"I’ve always dreamed of a kokoshnik and will happily wear it. There were also shampoo, shower gel and body cream in the box. Thank you all so much for the gifts," said Kira-Lin Nesterovich.

Together with her fiance Igor Tabachnik, she came to the festival from Saint Petersburg. The couple met on social media. The bride shared that on the evening of their first meeting, they both realised it was the beginning of something real — their own story.

"We absolutely love the National Centre RUSSIA. When we found out there was an opportunity to get married in this wonderful place, we didn’t hesitate to apply. We’re so happy it worked out — it was grand," Kira-Lin Nesterovich emphasised.

Other partners of the festival included the tour operator "Neva Seasons" and the hotels "Theatre Square" and "Express Sadovaya." Three newlywed couples will go on a three-day sightseeing tour to the northern capital.

"Neva Seasons" is one of the leading travel providers in Saint Petersburg and Vyborg. The hotels "Theatre Square" and "Express Sadovaya" are ideal honeymoon destinations, where modern design and comfort meet the historical atmosphere of the cultural capital.

The II All-Russian Wedding Festival was held with the support of the Presidential Fund for Cultural Initiatives.
