Stormy Russian fun on the Decade of Shelyagov’s wedding in St. Petersburg

Victoria and Oleg Shelyagov

Oleg Shelyagov ( ritual.ru ) and his astonishing wife Victoria yesterday in their native Peter celebrated the tenth anniversary of their boring marriage. The place of action was chosen by the Vladimir Palace with a perfectly preserved interior. Enjoyed themselves in the Russian style, prudently writing on the invitation party theme – “The Council and Love” – but the dress code of the guests were not required. But they themselves took shape in the best possible way.

Victoria ordered a kokoshnik with pompons on her temples, just like Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna at the Imperial Russian Ball in 1903. (You’ve seen this kokoshnik a hundred times – on a lady the clubs from the card deck “Russian style”). To the kokoshnik relied braid to the waist – this detail was entrusted to make-up artists from Mosfilm. Oleg dressed Felix Yusupov – in gold brocade. When the guests (not many, only 58 people) entered the dark refectory, they switched on the light sharply – and at once 15 balalaika players played in red satin shirts. The honest company ate pancakes with caviar and cakes. I drank vodka with ice cream cranberries. Danced the “Kamarinskaya”. I said toasts, heartfelt to tears.

Vice President of Mercury Alla Verber read the young Robert Rozhdestvensky. Niece Domenico Judy fulfilled the assignment of the friends Shelyagov Dolce and Gabbana, giving the crown for Vicki. At night, all the staff, like schoolchildren on an excursion, plunged into the bus and drove from the Dvortsovaya Embankment to Astoria. Fun with dancing on the bar was continued until 4 am – until Oleg Shelyagov in a white hotel dressing gown did not go down to the bar and did not offer to go to bed.
