Daddy, you came over!

Barely made it in time.

How could I miss it?

I thought after you learnt that I’m a neodruidess

you rejected me.

We didn’t talk for 3 years.

But you sent me the invitation.

Family bonds are the most important.

Everything else is just nothing.

Dad, do you understand

that the neodruid wedding

is not just the connection of two people.

It is the connection of two families.

Do you understand it?

I do.

Do you agree to embrace it?

And to bless us.

I bless you.

Whatever this means.

I just realized that you’re the one who doesn’t belong to our group.

It’s time to walk you to the altar.

Let the ritual begin!

Dear guests,

Today, we have the honor of witnessing an event that unites not only two people,

but also two families, two lineages, and two paths of life.

Time moves on — leaves take turns upon the branches, rivers flow to the sea,

and the seasons change. Yet one thing remains unchanged:

the human desire not to be alone,

to share warmth with another, and to pass one’s life forward.

We are children of the Earth,

and everything we do follows her rhythm.

Today, before us stand Anna and Maxim, who have chosen to join their paths as one.

They have come here not for a mere ceremony, but to tell the world: we are one.

Not just two people, but two families,

ready to intertwine their roots so that a new trunk may grow from them.

Our wedding is a ritual in which there is no division between the sacred and the ordinary.

Here, there are no foreign gods and no imagined borders.

There is only the human being, their nature, and the gift of life itself.

We honor not only their love, but also everything that is natural within the human heart:

the desire to love, the wish to create life,

and the longing to be part of something greater.

We honor the warmth of their bodies and the warmth of their hearts.

We honor the laughter of children that will one day follow this union.

We honor the quiet evenings by the hearth, the shared worries and joys,

the blood that will mingle and give rise to new life.

And today, we see here the families of both sides.

On the bride’s side, there is only one person — but that person is her father.

He sits here as the first root of her family line, a living proof of her origin.

His consent is the seal of the family line.

His presence is the bridge between the past and the future.

Today, Anna and Maxim unite their families, and from this moment everything is shared.

Let their union be complete — in heart, in spirit, and in the harmony of a shared life.

Interesting game.

To seal the union of these two families, I now invite the honored witnesses of this sacred ceremony!

What the hell is going on here?

It’s OK, don’t worry. It’s not your turn yet.

Such a wonderful family.

It’s so good.

To seal the union of these two families, I invite the parents of the bride and groom!

What the fuck?! No way!

Yeah, come on!

Come on, let’s start.

They’re having sex right here! What the heck?

It is normal. That’s the point of wedding rituals.

This is the moment when our whole family reaches its deepest unity with nature!

And, by the way, as part of this family, you too must take part in it!

Come on, you promised.

No fucking way.

- Why should I... - No worries.

We have time.

Horrible.

No, this is wonderful.

Let’s take it off.

I don’t get it.

What?..

Dear guests, you’re welcome!

Are you ready?

It’s okay.

Finally!

May the earth be your foundation, the water — a pure source of strength

the air — a breath of freshness, and the fire — the warmth of your home.

May your union be as strong as the oak, as flexible as the willow,

and as fruitful as a spring garden.

From this day on, your destinies are intertwined.

May this bond bring you joy, multiply your strength, and give you confidence in every new day.
