Love on the main stage: a marriage proposal at the opening of the National Centre RUSSIA branch in Vladivostok
One of the most touching moments of the solemn opening of
the branch of the National Centre RUSSIA in Vladivostok was a romantic event
that will remain forever in the memory of the guests.
Right on stage, in front of a large audience, a guest of the
festive programme — Alexei — proposed to his beloved Valeria. Amid loud
applause, he said: "Lera, I love you very much, I want to share my whole
future life with you, that is why today I want to ask you: will you marry
me?"
The answer came quickly — just moments later she confidently
said "Yes!", and the square erupted in ovations.
"Alexei, Valeria, we congratulate you with all our
hearts. You have made an incredibly brave and beautiful gesture that will make
your life even brighter, more wonderful and fulfilling. A great treasure is
appearing in your family — and that is you for each other," said Anastasia
Borodina, host of the festive programme and journalist of the Moskva 24 TV
channel.
A special gift for the newly engaged couple was an
invitation to the All-Russian Wedding Festival in Moscow.
Warm words of guidance for the couple also came from
families who had previously tied the knot as part of the All-Russian Wedding
Festival. Their words became a symbol of continuity, faith in love and the
value of family as the main foundation of the future.
