Bridesmaids wear traffic police uniforms. If desired and possible, dress up the brothers and friends of the bride in uniform. When the groom and his retinue drive up to the bride's house in cars, a traffic police inspector (a girl or a guy in disguise) stops the procession with a baton.
The inspector addresses the groom:
Good afternoon. The traffic police captain welcomes you. Why do we speed? Where are we in a hurry?
The inspector presents the radar readings and points to the speed limit sign “There is no need for haste in love!” (the sign can be given to one of the guests or hung on a pole).
The inspector suspected that the groom was not entirely sober. To check, you need to walk along a line - there is a rope stretched on the ground. The groom is blindfolded. He begins to move... at this moment one of the inspector’s assistants bends the rope to the side. Having reached the “turn”, the groom either gets lost or boldly moves on in a straight line. Both are interpreted as violations.
And: - Yes, this threatens with deprivation of rights!!!!!
Present your rights to family life! J: - I don’t have one. (or starts to come up with something) And: - If you don’t have a license, then you’ll have to get it, and our exams are very difficult. Of course, I can help you, but it wouldn’t hurt to spice me up with something first. The groom thinks about how to appease the inspector (he gives a bribe).
Family life license exams begin.
What it is?
The main purpose of the “ransom” is to effectively arrange the bride’s departure from home and to give the groom the opportunity to demonstrate his positive qualities.
Not least among them should be a sense of humor. It is this that becomes decisive when carrying out a ransom in the style of the traffic police (State Traffic Safety Inspectorate / Ministry of Emergency Situations / Traffic Police). This is interesting : Are there alternatives to ransom?
Read about this and much more in the article “Following traditions: bride ransom.” The essence of the scene being played out is: a guest dressed as a traffic cop or a relative of the bride (a number of traffic police or police officers) do not allow the groom into the house/apartment/room where the future newlywed is waiting for him.
The following obstacles are used:
- "extortion of a bribe";
- requirements to “show knowledge of the rules of the road” - decipher the invented “road signs” (can be done below);
- test the physical skills , intelligence, memory of the groom with the help of various questions and riddles.
To give the “game” authenticity, “traffic police officers” are dressed in uniforms or something similar, equipped with a striped baton and caps. Participants in the drawing “salute”, introduce themselves in the usual form for traffic cops, and show their “ID”.
First exam.
Lie detector test of the true desire to obtain the rights to family life!
Hanging darts with “desires to get married”:
Apple - for love Other reasons:
- I want borscht and cutlets
- Running out of clean socks
- Mother-in-law forces
- Just
- I want to wear a nice suit
- By calculation
- Trying is not torture
The witness-inspector gives one dart. If unsuccessful, sells the next attempt and sells another dart separately, etc.
List of accessories
Taking into account the specifics of the redemption procedure, you will need :
- The main “accessories” of traffic police officers are caps, uniform jackets and trousers, shoulder straps, whistles, striped batons . If it is impossible to find a form, you can use similar things, and the more “theatrical” and funny the replacement looks, the better;
- fake “ID” of the traffic police ;
- the “rights” of the groom , which are checked by a “traffic police officer”;
- posters and printouts with “road signs” , “rules of family life”;
- “Recording and control devices” simulating a video recorder, alcohol detector and other equipment. Compact household appliances are used as a base - hair dryer, curling iron, blender, etc.;
- “darts” to test the groom’s accuracy and determine his intentions, twine or striped yellow and black ribbon to “test the driving skills” of the groom and his friends and other props corresponding to the selected competitions.
Bride price: Second exam. Knowledge of signs.
Exam on knowledge of signs of family life. The groom needs to explain what this or that sign means.
The meaning of the signs should be unusual and cheerful.
The more interesting the groom’s explanation of the sign, the greater the chance of obtaining the rights to family life. For example:
Prepare
Wash the dishes Carry out marital duties Do not walk to the left DO NOT smoke
Not to drink
Raising children Making a cup of coffee Taking out the trash

Sixth exam. Driving.
Traffic police inspector: - There is very little left... It's time to test your driving skills. As you know, women love speed and at the same time accuracy. Imagine, there are 5 people in the car….music is playing….Your task is to drive along the highway, dancing, following the route.
The groom is given the steering wheel in his hands. The guests grab onto the groom like a train, cheerful music turns on and they follow the tracks, which are scattered in a chaotic manner.
Who, where, when?
When organizing a bride price in the traffic police style, you should think in advance about the distribution of roles and the venue , and also allocate time in such a way that the carried away newlyweds and guests are not late for the registry office.
In this case they usually play the role of:
- Traffic cops are senior relatives or friends of the bride. If they really work for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you should carefully find out their attitude towards such a prank;
- road accident registers, nurses, junior inspectors - girlfriends and relatives of the newlywed;
- “witnesses to the incident” are friends and relatives of the groom.
The groom himself is considered to be the “culprit of the accident” ; accordingly, the main burden of paying “fines” and “bribes” falls on him.
The draw is usually held at the entrance, in front of the bride’s apartment. If the newlywed lives on the ground floor or in a private house, it is better to arrange the ransom in the yard. It is not necessary to notify your future happy husband and his friends about the future event, but offer to arrive 20-40 minutes earlier than planned.
Important money, sweets, and champagne with them to “pay fines.”
If there are doubts that the groom will correctly understand the proposed entertainment and immediately join the game, you can warn one or two of the most creative friends with a good sense of humor .
Test four
It is necessary to fill in the gaps in the convicted person's dossier. This involves a standard competition for knowledge of facts about the bride and your relationship. Questions may be about:
- the date the lovers met; — the size of the bride’s waist; — birthday of the bride or her mother; - the height of the bride; - the height of the heel of her favorite shoes; — bride’s weight (in grams); - the number of guests who were invited to the wedding; - age of the witness.
For every wrong answer, of course, there is a penalty.
Ideas for decorating a room in the traffic police style
Signs and their meanings for the ransom of the Traffic Police
For the surroundings, place a “brick” road sign near the entrance where the bride lives . And also place other signs everywhere.
Fence the required area with red and white tape. Arrange the plastic cans in the shape of a special labyrinth. Decorate the walls of the entrance with posters, rhymes and traditional balloons.
Don't forget that the ransom action takes place on the street. Arrange everything so that the ongoing event does not disturb passersby.
Attributes for the traffic police buyout scenario
- Traffic police officer uniform . The best option, of course, would be a real uniform. If it is impossible to obtain a police uniform, choose similar clothing, for example, a strict dark blue or black suit. You can also wear a bright lime vest. Don't forget about the cap. You can make it from cardboard.
- Striped baton of a traffic police inspector.
This is an integral part of the image of a traffic cop. You can make it from scrap materials: cut it out of wood, process a thick stick, glue it out of cardboard. And then give it the appropriate look - paint it or paste it over with white and black stripes. - Traffic police certificate. Everything is still much simpler here. You can purchase a comic ID in stores, or print it out and paste your photo on it.
- Road signs or traffic police redemption signs . Any road sign can either be drawn on thick cardboard or printed.
- Folder for protocols. It stores a pen, receipts and other traffic cop documentation.
- Restriction tape. Striped or red and white ribbon can be purchased at office supply stores.
- The car is a constructor or a transformer . It will be needed so that the groom can show how dexterous he is.
- Poster for determining driver vision level. Buy a real one or draw a similar one. When checking the eyesight, the traffic police inspector (bride's friend) must demand a description of the bride from the groom for each correctly seen letter.
- Whistle of a traffic police inspector.
- Soap bubbles, colorful ribbons, plastic jars, children's steering wheel and other props for competitions.
Also prepare the area for the medical examination. You will need a chair and a white doctor's coat.
In the apartment
They go into the apartment, and there the bride’s sister is slowing everyone down.
Who came? Dear son-in-law? Do you want to become a relative? You will have to take my test for my sister! If you are not ill, If you are not lame, Get out the most delicious chocolate for testing! They say that these things make you soar with happiness. Well, tell me the truth - did you get bird flu? (here you need to look menacingly. The groom’s retinue denies everything, and so does he) Don’t tweet now, not May, get the certificates urgently! Yes, such that they rustle! Come on purple! (meaning five hundred) Okay, okay. Convinced. Come into the house quickly! Just to cherish my sister! To be cherished and loved!”>
Test one
For this test, you need to hang it on a wall into which you can stick darts (cork, for example),
- photographs of oligarchs,
- millionaires,
- billionaires
- or world stars,
who could clearly pay a deposit for a bride - such a smart, beautiful and simply good girl. In the center we hang a photo of the bride, for hitting her there is a fine in the form of money, sweets, etc. The groom receives darts and begins to get rid of competitors.
For passing each test, the groom receives one piece of a small puzzle, which must be prepared in advance.
This should be an image of the bride or a joint photograph of the lovers. After passing all the tests, the groom assembles a mosaic; it will be useful to him.
