Now back to the day. After dinner Katya's frieds organized some traditional Russian/Ukrainian wedding games which were a great entertainment for the evening. But the biggest hit was Prakash's live perfomance for Katya and guests. There was such a great ambience in the evening with the open space of Grand Conservatory, candles light, guitar sound and amazing voice with all attention on it. Prakash, it was very touching! BTW, you can check his Pave Leclair website with the latest music and hopefully new tour dates coming in the UK soon after his recent relocation from Australia.
The first game was 'Boy or Girl'. Guests had to contribute some money into pink or blue baby trousers and the pair with more money win. It's a traditional wedding game in Ukraine and no, the bride doesn't have to be pregnant :)
There were more money in blue trousers!
But Katya's mum said they do have twins in the family history, so she contributed into both pairs of trousers :)
Getting ready for another game..
There are men sitting in a row, including the groom. The bride will touch everyone's ears and has to guess where her groom is!
It's a difficult one :)
Yes, she got it right!
And then the groom has to identify his bride's knees.. Go on, Prakash!
I know, it's nerve wracking to watch that! (look at the 2 gentlement on the second photos biting their fingers) :)
And Prakash identified... Katya's mum!..
