Russian round dances, chastushki songs, bride price, church weddings and newlyweds biting a loaf - a wedding ceremony in the traditions of the Tambov region took place at the RUSSIA EXPO. The newlyweds were Tambov boxers: the groom, Alexei Gukin, a Russian master of sports in boxing, and Elena Kuzicheva, a boxing coach at a children's and youth sports school.

Tambov wedding differs from other weddings with special chants, and white and green colors are necessarily present in embroidery on sarafan dresses and jewelry. Participants of the regional state academic song and dance ensemble "Ivushka" helped the newlyweds to demonstrate the beauty of the Tambov wedding. They performed the songs "Wedding of the Tambov Region", "On the Meadows" and "The Bride's Lament".
