Increasingly, from the newlyweds you can hear the following phrase: "no contests at the wedding." One gets the feeling that the couple is either being modest or imagining “vulgar” contests with dressing up and counting money in their heads. This is where the questions arise: should you categorically refuse to hold contests at your wedding, and if not, how to make your wedding dynamic, interesting and modern? Popular hosts have long found the answer, and it sounds like this - "interactive program".

Interactive, contests, "movement" - you can call it whatever you like. The main thing is that inside there is everything that is aimed at revealing the intellectual, creative, creative, choreographic, acting, vocal and any other abilities of dear guests. In addition to the fact that interactive activities should bring joy and pleasure to all those present, the leader also faces the task of introducing, rallying, uniting people who are unfamiliar or unfamiliar until now, creating a so-called “comfort zone” for them. Today we decided to introduce our readers to those who have long and successfully replaced the "pencil in a bottle" with new experiences.

Roman Klyachkin

Orchestra Man

Roman Klyachkin is a positive and energetic leader, decorating every event with dynamics and lightning-fast reaction. Actor, comedian and presenter, Roman is widely known to the public as a participant in comedy projects on TNT. "Duet Beautiful" together with Ilya Sobolev - the winner of the show "Laughter without rules" on TNT, participants in the projects "Slaughter League", "Comedy Club" and many others.

Today Roman is one of the most famous and expensive showmen in Moscow. He has a great sense of humor and is able to give good mood to all those present.

Charm, intrigue, evoke enthusiastic emotions, make everyone have fun to the fullest, “charge” the newlyweds with the energy of happiness and positive. These are the goals set by the leader. Roman has a large number of interesting, exclusive, creative interactives and developments in his arsenal. Klyachkin's program is a bet on humor and improvisation: to amuse, surprise, arrange interactive and practical jokes - this is his job.

The novel went through a serious school of stand-up performances, so it is almost impossible to take him by surprise, to confuse or confuse him. He always has something to say. And most often what he says will be met with smiles and laughter. The novel is ideal where freshness, energy and creativity are required from the presenter.

Modern weddings require more involvement of the host in the preparation process, especially when discussing the program. The most common mistake is the use of the same interactive for different audiences. Interactive is when the host and the couple prepare for it in advance. He should be with the guys or with their guests. The contest, on the other hand, usually has nothing to do with the couple, and is held solely for the sake of “buying time”.

Interactive and competition are, in fact, synonymous concepts. Approximately as a leader and toastmaster. The main difference is in the associations that people have. When the start of the competition is announced, balls, carrots, graters, ladles, pencils, bottles and running in bags immediately pop up in the mind. Interactive is a modern word and implies activity that has nothing to do with Soviet Union. For this modernity, as well as high-quality humor and general positive mood presenter Yuri Mikhlin fights in his work.

Yuri came to the hosts from KVN, was a participant in the Comedy Battle project and a screenwriter for the show Ural Dumplings. It is the rich experience of the author that helps Mikhlin to come up with new funny interactives using modern gadgets.

“The ideal interactive program at a wedding is a program designed for people of all generations, where it is equally advantageous to be both an interactive participant and to remain in the role of a spectator. The host can communicate unobtrusively with the guests, and if the guest answers him, and when the host asks to raise his hand, he raises it, then, in general, he is already in the game, ”Yuri believes.

The most common mistake that presenters make when compiling a program is “not to take a steam bath”. The wedding for them takes place in two stages: the first is to meet the newlyweds and charm, the second is to appear on time for the celebration. For Yuri, the most important stage is the preparation for the wedding - early joint painstaking work with the newlyweds and attention to detail. This is elementary: the host must know the newlyweds as well as the guests - their history of acquaintance, key points development of their relationship, when and how the proposal was made. This will allow appropriate jokes and dialogue.

An interactive wedding program could only consist of author's ideas, but still Mikhlin, although ambitious and experienced, believes that one head, as they say, is good, but two ... For a change, Yuri often meets and communicates with colleagues who are close in style and in spirit. Often valuable ideas are borrowed from TV shows and upgraded into wedding games, all the more so for guests to be in the role of participants in shows that are close to them, such as “Moscow Evenings” on the First and “Improvisations” on TNT.

Another trump card in the program - mini-games. They are simple and fast, they close the pause where necessary, they are carried out to laughter, and not to the winner, sometimes they are invented by the presenter on the go. It's not easy and that's why it's interesting. Any unforeseen situation is a kind of challenge, it is an opportunity to show your professionalism by turning a minus into a plus.

In addition to interactive events, there is another important part of the wedding - these are traditional moments. And they simply need to be changed in order to keep up with the times, Yuri believes. Here are a couple of secrets for beginners: iPhones help vote for a boy and a girl, thanks to VR glasses worn by the groom, the bride is stolen in front of everyone, and this season it was fashionable to catch a bouquet in the mannequin challenge style.

“Competition” for me is a concept that is strongly associated with the word “master of ceremonies”. We don't have that anymore. And interactive is more like brainstorming or bringing together guests, much more intellectual by definition. It is designed directly under this group the people whose event we are doing.

“My task as a host is to make not just a holiday, but to create a world in which there will be a good mood, humor, laughter, as well as memories, a sincere atmosphere and truly touching moments,” Vasily Sorokin writes about himself. And it seems that he is sure of what he says, because this imposing blond has over 2,000 events of various sizes behind him.

Vasily tries to be aware modern technologies. At the moment, the market for entertainment applications is limitless, and even using a smartphone, you can make pleasant surprises for the event: from editing SDE video to creating 3D models of guests. The presenter is sure that the ideal program is the case when not a single guest was left without attention and could find himself in the program.

But the word "competitions" in his work Sorokin tries not to use. “It's simple: there is a winner in the competition and, roughly speaking, a loser, and in an interactive game, a relevant topic is played out that does not require competition,” says the presenter.

To understand what the couple and guests want, it is best to analyze their hobbies, passions and interests. Sometimes the answer to this question lies in the joint creativity of the presenter and the client. Vasily is sure that any well-spoken phrase, spontaneous initiative of the guest will inevitably become a feature of the wedding day. Therefore, rely on technology, but do not make a mistake yourself. The prefix "digital" takes place as one of the trump cards in the hands of the presenter, but not the basis of his program. Technologies are not always appropriate: content is more important than external bonuses. And do not forget that there should not be many interactives. The golden mean is from three to five.

, head of the wedding agency. The number of interactive events at the wedding depends on the concept of the event. There are celebrations where we do not use them at all: there is a dance block, or the guests are just talking. Everything depends on the concept. If the concept is suitable, then the optimal number is 3-4 interactive.

The nature of interactives is simple and has long been known to all presenters. But secret ingredient What makes a wedding truly special is personalized content. It is he who, together with the guests of the holiday and future newlyweds, is thought out and created by the host Denis Drozdov.

“The ideal interactive program is when it is interesting for all guests and the presenter. When you get high yourself and do it with the utmost sincerity and involvement,” Denis is sure.

There are two main models from which all interactives are created: quiz and action. In the first case, you need to guess something, in the second, you need to complete a certain task. It is very important not just to use these designs, but to come up with an idea and personalization that will make the wedding special and will be as close and understandable to all those present as possible. The idea for an interactive, like the concept of a wedding, can come from one word. A childhood passion or hobby, a favorite song, or maybe even the work of future newlyweds. Moreover, the idea itself can be repeated, this is normal, but the content - never!

Each wedding is unique in that it gathers for the first time different people In one place. The task of the presenter is to find something that will unite them and captivate them for the whole evening. Take, for example, movies and music. The topic itself is not really new. What to attract? Filling. Symbolic for a couple and the most interesting films for a particular occasion. Unite the older and younger generations? Making a mix of Hollywood and Soviet cinema. In some cases, you can use the move "from the opposite". Young people guess songs or films known to older people, and vice versa.

The more guests, the more likely it is that one of them will be left without attention. But only not with a competent leader. For weddings with more than 50 guests, Denis uses formats that involve and bring together the maximum number of people. For example, quiz.

Quiz (from the English quiz) is a competition during which teams of participants answer several rounds of questions. How to create teams? Easily. They will be guests who sit at the same table. At each table there is a card in which the guests enter the answers to the questions. Time is limited, which adds excitement and unity at the table. After the end of the mini-game, the host or assistant collects the cards, and you can safely take a break, after which the results will be announced and the most erudite table will be awarded. It turns out stylish, atmospheric and personal.

In Denis' portfolio for 2017 you will find a bold and successful experiment - a quiz-style wedding. A game of 5 rounds, composed together with the newlyweds, who received the role of the main judges of the evening. Questions about the couple, the unique wedding traditions of the world, travel, film and music, all wrapped up in a personalized presentation. In between rounds - dancing, hookahs, drawing a bouquet, men's battle, cake, "wedding fortune" for guests. The evening passed easily, recklessly and cheerfully, introduced and united all the guests among themselves. And the idea that accidentally appeared during the discussion at the first meeting may well become a good tradition in this family. This is, according to Denis, a good interactive component.

Olga Kramar, head of the agency. It is also very important to discuss everything with the organizer and the couple. With four different opinions, truth is born much faster. When compiling the program, you need to take into account the number of guests, artists and the general style of the event. Optimally from 1 to 4. Sometimes we don't even do one. The most popular this season were video gadgets. Guests are filming, guests are filming, in advance, during the event - it doesn’t matter. People like to see themselves on screen.

Leonid believes: an ideal interactive program happens when the hall is ready to participate and communicate, and the host is ready to improvise at every stage of the holiday. An important point for good interactive is sound: it is almost impossible to work interactively with bad sound.

Now interactive and competition are different as concepts, but by their nature they are absolutely the same tools of the presenter. The interactive has more room for the guest-participant to act and the interpretation of the rules from the host is much wider. The competition is stricter and less free in improvisation. Interactive has conditional rules - points around which everything is built on the improvisation of the presenter.

Most often, during the wedding, Leonid uses only phones: other gadgets are too difficult to use in the program. Nevertheless, modern technologies have already changed the world of the event: tracks are downloaded during the holiday, and many interactive events require a screen. The program includes individual developments and a lot of successfully twisted borrowings. Interactions often happen on the go. Leonid says: “For example, recently the winners of a competition who won cars and apartments, right during the gala dinner, showed how they would drive them and how they would live in them. This was done absolutely right away, despite such expensive prizes.”

It does not matter how many interactive events or contests there will be at the wedding: one or two, five or more, or none at all. The main thing is what kind of atmosphere the host creates. An audience that does not want banal contests can be invited to reconsider their attitude to contests in general. Leonid says: “It's not about the competition, but about me. It's like a Caesar salad: it has the same ingredients all over the world: lettuce, tomatoes, and so on. But somewhere he is - you will lick your fingers, and somewhere - just normal. It's all about the chef. The same goes for contests and interactive activities.”

, head of the wedding agency. At our weddings, we carefully work out the guests and their interests, but sometimes the clients themselves give incorrect information: for example, they say that people do not want to dance or interactive when people, on the contrary, want to dance. The advantage of a good presenter is that he can quickly orient himself and correctly present the necessary interactive.

  • You should first familiarize yourself with some of the works of each presenter in order to see the style of his conversation, communication, and competitions. Someone prefers the classics, and someone is not afraid to introduce innovations into their activities and creative ideas.

  • It is better to choose those presenters who have already been seen at any event and they have attracted attention.

  • What does the guest show? Each invitee is invited to draw one card, which depicts some kind of emotion. It needs to be shown so believably that other guests can guess.

  • "Congratulations to the hero of the day, birthday, newlyweds." Each guest draws a card on which it is suggested how to congratulate: sing a song, recite a verse, give compliments, dance or just smile. There can be a lot of variations.

Everyone knows that if you sit at a holiday for a long time, it will definitely become boring, so if the toastmaster good contests interesting guaranteed.

  • "We will gather the hero of the day, the birthday man, the newlyweds in parts." Each guest is invited to go to the stand where the drawing paper is fixed and, blindfolded, draw the indicated part of the body of the head of the evening. The result is an interesting and fun portrait.

  • "Move the item." This competitive competition involves division into two teams. Players need to move all the necessary items, such as balls, from one place to another. But this must be done either without hands, or with only legs, or with any part of the body. Instructions are given by the toastmaster. Whoever copes faster and does not break the rules, he won.
  • "Battle". This competition will perfectly unite two generations. Players are divided into two teams: "those who are under 40" and "those who are over 40". It is proposed to dance to the given music. Whose dance is better, friendlier and more lively, that team is considered the winner. But you should choose a melody for turnover: old hits for young people, and modern music for the older generation.

crazy dancing

Participants are divided into pairs. In each pair, one leg of one participant is connected with one leg of the second participant. The host turns on the music and commands are given to dance, for example, lambada, cancan, chunga-changa, hip-hop, and so on. It will be interesting to watch couples interact and dance with their feet tied. The most eccentric and talented couple gets a prize.

Feel the booty

The competition is fun and interesting. Each participant closes their eyes and puts an object on a chair, for example, a nut, a spoon, a pencil, and so on. Each participant sits down on a chair and tries to guess what is under his soft spot. Whoever guesses the most items correctly will win a prize.

Don't take me for weak

In this competition, the host offers to do one of two things: push up 500 times or:
- drink a glass of vodka (in fact, there will be water in the glass);
- drink a liter of potassium permanganate (diluted cherry juice);
- eat 2 worms (in fact, the worms will be marmalade);
- smear the face with mud (melted chocolate) and so on.
It will be interesting who is not weak to accomplish a "feat" and it is funny to watch surprised faces when the truth turns out to be untrue. Prizes are given to the bravest.

Make up your word

For this competition, the host must think over and choose interesting words. For example, in front of the guests there is an easel and the word - is written. y. nya The facilitator explains that the guests should think carefully and pronounce the word that fits, that is, simply add letters instead of dots. Or, for example, you need to make a word of 5 letters, in which the letters p, z, d, a are necessarily present. Thus, guests will cheer themselves up and enter into courage. But the answers are quite simple. The first option is the kitchen, and the second option is the west.

Customs

The participants are divided into two teams. The first team is customs and the second is people who go abroad. Customs will not let them through until they answer the main question: “what will you take with you abroad first of all?”. Travelers must name things that begin with the same letter as their name.
Whoever names more things wins.

Feet can do anything

Each participant sits on the ass, takes a marker in his feet (between the feet) and must write a phrase on the sheet, for example, I am well done. All letters must be clearly visible. Which of the guys write the phrase faster, he will receive a prize.

draw the word

The host with the guests come up with a word and say it to one of the participants in the competition. His task is to depict this word on paper without using letters and numbers. The participant tries and draws. The task of the team of players is to guess what word they are talking about. The one who guesses first will receive a prize.

By centimeters
For this competition, you will need a centimeter and prepared certificates (medals), into which the vocations and titles of the guests will then fit. The host calls the category, and the guests, who feel that they can take a prize in this category, take part, everything is decided by the measurements. Then everyone will be able to get their diploma, for example, “Prominent chest”, “Elf ears”, “Legs from ears”, “Wasp waist”, “Musical fingers”, “Miniature palms”, “Almost twine”, “Marian navel ”, “Julia Roberts smile” and so on.

Show me your tongue

The guys are divided into teams. One by one, the participants of each team are invited to the center of the room, the participant takes out his phantom from his hat, in which some specific phrase is written, which is difficult to pronounce, for example, “a somersault with a forward subfold” or “the ships were still able to catch” and so on. Each participant goes to the center and, opening his mouth wide, sticking his tongue out completely, pronounces the phrase he got, and his team must guess as quickly as possible and pronounce this very phrase verbatim. If the team that this participant is a member of guesses, she gets her point, if the opposing team guesses, she gets 2 points. There is an incentive and there will certainly be fun after everyone shows their tongue and tries to say something.

At a party in honor of Freshmen's Day on September 22 in the Baikonur concert and dance hall in Tyumen, young people and girls compete in rather risky competitions from the point of view of morality. They stripped almost naked, and the girls publicly imitated oral-genital contact.

The prize for the best participant was a certificate for a thousand rubles in a tattoo parlor. In social networks, however, they claim that a military ID was attached to it. Someone from those present at the show filmed what was happening on video and posted it to the public. Of course, a scandal erupted.

Representatives of Tyumen State University hastened to distance themselves from the dubious event. University employee Elena Druzhinina said that the official initiation into students took place at the university on September 14. She stressed that the university is not going to expel or punish students. The committee on academic ethics will decide their fate, but the university is preparing an appeal to law enforcement.

“It is important, since our university is mentioned, to find out who conducted it, who gave permission and was the instigator in such competitions. The situation is unique for each student, and everything will be decided by the ethics committee. We do not plan to make hasty decisions here, ”said Elena Druzhinina.

The press service of the university confirmed that draconian measures should not be expected. Moreover, the party was arranged for students of all Tyumen universities, and not just Tyumen State University.

“We have reviewed the video, but it is not very good quality, it is difficult to identify the identity of our students on it. If we find out who it is, we will hold professional events. We will not expel anyone, ”the press service of the university said.

According to Vadim Shvets, the head of Baikonur KTZ, on September 22, the hall was rented by the Ruslan Krasilnikov School of Organizers. Now he does not answer phone calls. However, it became known that an exclusive all inclusive club party in Baikonur costs about 120 thousand rubles.

The organizer of the party, according to rumors, was the well-known showman Nikita Snyusevsky in Tyumen. However, he resolutely denied this dubious honor.

“I have nothing to do with the organization of the event. Especially for the competition. I advertised the project, because in Tyumen I am a public figure among my peers, ”he said.

Party attendees say people were in attendance different ages not just freshmen. There were both older and younger, minors. But after 22:00 they were taken out of the club by security. What time the odious competition began, however, is not known.

Those present claim that the organizers of the competition themselves did not expect that things would go so far. The maximum they expected was that the participants would remain in their underwear.


The video circulated all over Runet and the publications of the Russian media made the scandalous party public.
In social networks, Tyumen residents complain that they did not want such glory for their city. They are ashamed that now Russians will associate Tyumen State University with wild morals, drinking parties and strip contests.

Urban youth said that such spectacles are typical for all clubs in Russia. Just not everywhere is an alternatively gifted viewer who will remove them and put them in the public domain. They write that they are offended that students can be expelled because of such nonsense. By the way, the video was posted on Instagram by a user under the nickname sanyara_boy17. Now he has closed his profile.

Naturally, in the chats there were also those who wanted to “shoot” the youth who had committed a fine, but in general the discussion was reduced to the problem of fathers and children with the participation of people of different generations. Some reproached today's youth for total debauchery, others reasonably noted that someone had brought them up. Isn't it you, disrespectful moralfags?

“For adult participants, such contests are the norm, or rather, not quite, but no one forcibly undressed the girls, they themselves wanted it and did it themselves. The girls were ready to do this for prizes,” said Mark Sushkov, one of the organizers of the city party.

Apparently, the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Tyumen region does not share his opinion, since the police have already begun checking. They will find out if there were minors present at the party, and they will also find its organizers.

Memes appear on the Internet quite spontaneously. As soon as one user posts a funny picture, someone immediately adds a witty comment to it. A successful meme spreads across the world wide web in a few hours.

internet meme

Few people are not familiar with the thousands of memes on the World Wide Web. For those who are in the tank, this term refers to a phrase, a picture, an activity that formed spontaneously and quickly gained popularity. Among the most popular and well-known are “rukalitsa”, “stoned fox”, “suspect dog”, “catastrophe girl”, “both a good toastmaster and interesting contests”.

Where did the term "meme" come from? Many consider it a neologism of recent years, formed on the Internet. However, this assumption is fundamentally wrong.

This term is quite old and was first used in 1976 by Professor Richard Dawkins in his work "The Selfish Gene":

A meme is a unit of cultural information that can spread at lightning speed.

The term did not enter the active vocabulary, but surfaced in 1994 when it was used by Douglas Rothschild as a definition for a particular kind of media virus.

And the toastmaster is good, and the contests are interesting

Where did this expression come from? Who and when first used it?

Three years ago, in 2015, in the public "Suffering Middle Ages", created by history students, the meme "both a good toastmaster and interesting contests" appeared, from where it quickly moved to the Pikabu portal, and already there it rapidly gained popularity.

Initially, he appeared with this picture:

A priest reading a prayer and a round dance of naked people around.

An inexhaustible source of irony

In just a few months, the phrase was replicated in hundreds of different pictures and videos.

Not surprisingly, the traditional Russian wedding with a toastmaster fell under the guns of sharp-tongued Internet pranksters. The reality is that even in the 21st century, most leading weddings still have not departed from Soviet traditions and style.

Contests typical for a wedding, designed for a well-drunk audience, are usually vulgar and primitive. Interestingly, the vast majority of pictures with this meme are real wedding photos.

This meme is not a copy of any foreign joke and has been distributed exclusively in Runet. Perhaps because of its specificity and comprehensibility only to the Russian-speaking part of the population.
