Ice skating wedding
Marriage registration on ice rinks has become a good tradition of winter seasons. On Tuesday, two wedding ceremonies took place on the largest skating rink in the capital at VDNKh. The newlyweds were on skates and in festive outfits that matched the entourage of the ice rink. The official marriage registration was carried out by employees of the capital’s registry offices.
The largest skating rink at VDNKh this year is located in its traditional place — along the Main Alley between pavilions No. 1 “Central” and No. 58 “Agriculture”. The ice rink goes around the fountains “Friendship of Peoples” and “Stone Flower”. The area of the artificial ice surface is more than 20 thousand square meters.
In addition, the evening ceremonies were held for the first time on the skating rink of the Moscow Palace of Pioneers on Vorobyovy Gory. It was decorated with modern wedding decor, and the names of the newlyweds were displayed on the multimedia screen during the ceremonies. Natural evening and artistic lighting added coziness to the ceremony.
Love reigns here
In addition, on the beautiful date of February 25, 2025, the Wedding Palace at VDNKh celebrated its 11th anniversary since its opening. The building was constructed in 1939 according to the design of the famous architect Nikolai Kolli. The historic mansion has a large hall and living rooms, which are ideal for gathering guests, holding receptions, photo and video shooting.
The area of the ceremonial hall is 100 square meters, which allows for more than 30 people to be accommodated, ensuring a comfortable and solemn event. The interval between registrations here is twice as long as in other wedding palaces in Moscow.
