I think it's fair to say that they do the traditional wedding photos somewhat differently in Russia. While it's all about romance, beauty, and gazing longingly into each other's eyes in the Western world, Russian couples choose to let their humor and personalities shine through. And as you will see, they sometimes come up with bizarrely creative and hilarious examples that will never be forgotten!

The Russian wedding traditions might lead to the outcome of these hilariously funny pictures, as the celebration involves indecent amounts of Vodka, foods, and dancing that might last up until a week. Surely, after partying for a week, some bizarre ideas are bound to pop into your head.

From questionably tacky efforts and the infamous slav squat in every second picture to some that are obviously poking fun at themselves, these guys clearly love using bad photoshop almost as much as they love each other. To celebrate this, we have compiled a list of our favorites for you to enjoy and take inspiration from if you want your wedding pictures to be a little different from the boring standard formula that we tend to stick to.

Scroll down below to check the hilarious wedding ceremonies out for yourself! Na Zdorovie!

    Заголовок не правдив. Настоящая славянка - скромная. Свадебное славянское платье закрывает зону декольте и руки. А уж тем более ни одна приличная невеста у нас так не сядет . Эээ то называется " враскоряку". Многим славянским родителям стало бы неприятно, если бы дочь так себя вела на свадьбе. И тем более , если бы оделась так, как женщина лёгкого поведения
