  • Thanks for the question. Yes, some conservative women wear a scarf after their wedding, it's a tradition, but mostly from the Russian Orthodox Church. There is also a tradition (in some regions) of wearing a scarf briefly at the reception. I don't know all the details about this tradition. There is also an old joke that Ukrainian women tell about scarves after their weddings. I can tell you if you're interested.

  • Thank you for the question. Yes, in this clip is mostly English because the groom and his family are American. We had a translator and the band leader knew a little English too.
