What should happen is that we do not tell anyone, it's our secret. And now there will be a dress rehearsal so that we know how to behave properly. " The only condition that Sasha and Ruslana set before us is the place of shooting. "We want all this to happen in our house, so we invite guests," our heroes said. And we conceived in everything to follow the wedding canon: a black tuxed couple for the groom, a long white dress for the bride, a veil, a wedding bouquet, doves as a symbol of love and faithfulness ...
Honestly, we were a little worried whether our bright heroes, who do not recognize standards and stereotypes, agree on such a traditional image. But Sasha and the enamored singer Ruslana Lyzhichko enthusiastically accepted all our ideas. Sasha went to try on the tailcoat, and Ruslana with pleasure and curiosity put on a decollete dress with crinoline.
While the stylist-barber conjured over the luxurious black hair of the "bride", we took advantage of the rare case when this Amazon is in no hurry anywhere and even sits quietly, and asked what it feels like. "A wedding dress is an amazing, magical thing," Ruslana Lyzhichko told us. I believe in his magic, in his power ... Do you know what is very important? It must be such that you feel irresistible. The bride-girl must be free, self-confident, relaxed and proud. It's her holiday, now she's a queen, and the crown she wore on her wedding day must shine on her head all her life! "
Honestly: after hearing such a revelation, we were very surprised, because the story of how Alexander Ksenofontov and Ruslana Lyzhichko, dressed in jeans and sweaters, came to the Lviv registry office and secretly separated from their parents and friends, has long been known to everyone. But it turned out, there are a lot of details unknown to the general public! "Jeans and sweaters," says Ruslana, "we specially bought for such a case, they were very bright and creative. And the bouquet I had was luxurious: Sasha bought up all the roses in the Galician market. How many of them were - I will not say, I'm afraid to lie, but I then thought that too much! We felt like kings that day, and I remember every minute of it! We have lived together for several months with Sasha's mother, and we were constantly drugged by the brains: that you live just like that, when you sign ... Here we decided to stop these conversations. It so happened that on that day my dad came to visit us. I told him that today we have a painting. Dad asked offended:
"Are parents unworthy to know about this?" The fact is that my father is from the Ivano-Frankivsk region, and there it is customary to observe the traditions. And he, of course, dreamed that his daughter will have a real wedding, and I deprived him of this opportunity ... But he had to swallow it. He looked at us and said: "Do you have a ring?" Of course, there were no rings, because for us all this was not important. Then he took us to a jewelry store. We took, almost the first caught. They are still stored, now I will show. " Our bride, to the horror of the stylist, jumps up from the chair, disappears in the back of the house, but soon appears with a wooden box, opens it and gently pulls out two thin rings. "Smirite, even the price tags were preserved: we barely wore them, they were too big for me and Sasha and flew off my fingers. But today we will certainly wear them ... And that day we went to the registry office, and it was very fun. One procession comes in: 50 relatives and guests, children howl, shoes in heels all press, the bride's veins come off ... Then the second procession - even more, a hundred people. Finally, it's our turn, and we go into this huge room three together, because there was only one witness with us, Misha Dashkovich, Sashkin is a close friend, very famous photographer in Lviv. And the woman who commits this procedure looked at us suspiciously: "Who is this? Bride and groom? How old are you? "And she immediately demanded a passport. We looked then, as teenagers, in these jeans-sweaters. Not otherwise, as she decided that we are 15 years old, and we ourselves do not know what we are doing. She looked at our documents, understood that it was possible to paint, and the text was put to read. He reads and laughs, and we are ridiculous. And Mishka takes pictures of us, photos have turned out a lot from the wedding. Last year, to our anniversary, Mom printed them all, collected them and gave me an album ... "
Ruslana again breaks down and brings the album. The stylist sighs heavily, and we look at the black-and-white pictures from which our heroes are watching, very funny and very young. Their faces shine with happy smiles, both radiate energy and lightness. Nothing to do with the traditional wedding photos, in which the bride and groom are trying their best to match the moment, and are smiling with a strained smile ...
"And then we went out into the street, took photos again near the registry office, took a taxi and went to a cafe," Ruslana said in the meantime. - There they met our friends and told them the good news. They just jaw dropped from astonishment, but the guys quickly oriented: "How can this be ?! Let's exhibit then! "And in the evening we went home to Sashka's mother ... But my mother was told only the next day. And do you know what a coincidence? She just married, too, and got to know about everything at the festive table, by the way! My mother told me later: "I do not know what I would have done if it had not been for my wedding that day!" That's how everything began here ... "
Here Ruslana sighs: "Not a very easy start. At first there was a clear aversion from the parents. They did not understand that this was my euphoria at the age of 20, why I was ready for anything, and this frightened them. They thought that in such emotions I would not deal with feelings, and then it would be too late. And Sasha's mother was also upset. But then everything settled, it was adjusted ... However, - laughs Ruslana, - and today I can not even complain about Sasha. Both my father and mother answer me: "I chose it myself, we have nothing to do with it!" But my mother-in-law is always on my side. She says so: "Ruslana, there is nothing to stand on ceremony with him!"
Well, with the parents all issues are settled, and they gave their blessing for the present wedding. But are our heroes ready in 15 years of joint life to utter an oath of loyalty again? After all, according to some psychologists, there are special seven-year cycles in family life, and even in the most prosperous unions a crisis is brewing, because ... Ruslana does not allow us to finish pseudo-scientific calculations and says with a smile: "All crises depend on us, with what leg I got up! If I woke up with a good mood, there would not be a crisis in the family. To bring Sasha out of himself, it is necessary to sit well on his head, and then - it is unlikely to work. And then, Sasha has the right to lead our family, which I absolutely admit. We have already stuffed a lot of glasses on this occasion and staked out the stools, were violated, and were naughty. And came to a very wise conclusion: "Why swear, still will be reconciled!" Everything is already so intertwined! And to us to separate is the same as dividing oneself, it becomes painful. You know, when we quarrel, there is a feeling that there is not a huge part of you. "
Not by hearsay knowing about the burning temperament of our interlocutor, we express doubt that they do not have violent scenes and scandals with their husband. Ruslana smiles and confesses: "All my attempts to leave have ended with tears, hugs and stormy love. No matter how much I went, he never once ran into me to catch up with me, but it always broke me like this! I found myself a lot of excuses, like any woman. It seemed to me that he was unfair, that he was doing everything wrong. I realized only then that he could not stand it all the time, but just loved me and behaved wisely: he did not show his emotions, but did so that I returned. When I realized this, I stopped clapping the door. You know, it may seem that since there is no rapid clarification of the relationship, it means it's boring. But this is not so! I want to say that the faster the pair pass all these tests, the faster they will have time for true love. When you just enjoy life, love and give this feeling in return! And here very important details, little things, pleasant surprises! I do not remember such a winter that Sasha did not give me spring flowers. Recently, there were frosts of 20 degrees, and he comes home with a bouquet of snowdrops. Where did he find them? I do not know. And this is always without reason, always unexpected. He comes home and gives me spring! "
The singer Ruslana Lyzhichko's love voice is changing, the expression on her face ... Now she is completely different from the Amazon, full of energy and passion, which it is used to see the audience. Before us is a very tender woman, with amazing warmth, telling about her beloved man: "The biggest holiday for us and Sasha is the first day of spring. Sasha and says to me: "Please, be gentle in the spring, not a stormy summer, not a crazy winter, not a changeable autumn." He's such a romantic, he likes halftones, he notices a lot of nuances! "
But after all, Ruslana and Alexander are not only a married couple, this is a very successful creative tandem. The singer often talks about this, but she also repeats with pleasure: "Sasha devoted his whole life to my project. He could realize himself: and write music, and sing ... But he did not. And if earlier we quarreled over creativity, then a year ago our disputes ceased. Sasha had the idea of a new project, absolutely brilliant, and now we are in full unanimity working on it.
We in a good way envied the enamored singer Ruslana Lyzhichko. Still, it's great when people are connected not only with feelings, but with work ... But what would be with their relationship if not for music? Could Sasha and Ruslana be together? After all, they are so different ... Ruslana hotly objected: "This is not so! We have the same views on the main things in life, the same approach. One philosophy of life. For example, if the question arises that you need to give all your money to help someone, we will not even discuss it at the family council. We will just help - and this is normal. There are many such moments, I just brought such an example. The only thing we disagree with - I really love extreme sports! But Sasha, we have a calm attitude towards these things. But he's used to it for so many years and turns a blind eye when I try something really crazy. He understands well that I need it. "
But in order to really enjoy the extreme, you must maintain an excellent physical shape. And this requires a huge amount of time. Ruslana agrees: "Half a day goes to physical exertion: massages, stretching, swinging the press, skipping ropes, mats, simulators. I have already become a habit. So you can, for example, get up in the morning and do not brush your teeth? "We all are shaking our heads, still civilized people. Ruslana smiles: "So I can not do without training. And Sasha knows that this is my time and my space. And in the same way I respect his pursuits and hobbies. We came to the fact that we need to give each other freedom! "Here Ruslana shrugs her shoulders and emotionally continues:" It's terrible when people for a long time together and at the same time dictate to each other what and how to do. By the way, I noticed that a man often surrenders than a woman, a woman only loses from this. Then she herself in horror declares that she has a rag in her house. I do not know how her rag can excite. "
There is one more important point that we want to clarify. Family is not only emotions, common interests, it is also an everyday life, a life that is not always pleasant and interesting. Have our heroes passed this test? Ruslana admits: "Worst of all, when we start to live for ourselves, only with our thoughts and problems, do not notice anything except ourselves. I caught myself on this, especially after Eurovision, when international success came, glory. But you know, somehow I asked myself the right time: "Why is my music project more important for me than the problems of my loved ones?" It hurt me when I realized how little time I spend with my family and husband that I do not remember , that he eats, that he wears ... Now I care about Sasha, I do everything that he was with me well. I cook everything, as he loves, spoiling my favorite tomato juice, rubbing tomatoes on my grandson, I scratched all my hands! "Smiles Ruslana. "But Sasha also spoils me. I know he's ready for anything for me. Over the years, I realized a very important thing: the family is first and foremost self-giving. And if you are not ready to live for another person, do not feel the need to take care of someone, you do not want another person to be well-groomed, in a good mood, smiling - do not create a family.
After all, there will be euphoria, sex will get bored, and you will want it all over again, only with greater severity. It's an enchanted circle, along which you can run all your life, and then cry: "Oh, I can not find my love!" And how can you find it if you are not able to escape from yourself ...? "
While we were talking , the stylist finished his work and put on a fancy veil for Ruslana Lyzhichko, in love ... Honestly, the result surpassed all expectations: before us was an ideal bride, modest and beautiful! And when Sasha, elegant, slender, with a radiant smile, went into the room where we had a conversation with the enamored singer Ruslana Lyzhichko, and silently, took his wife by the hand - we were finally convinced that our idea with a wedding photosession in the classical style was absolutely right! And now we will be looking forward to the wedding of Sasha and Ruslana, the rehearsal of which was so successful!
