Short pre-story - Robbie met Lyuda one of our friends and member of our agency in April 2003, and in a year she moved to Scotland, and on September 11th 2004 Lyudmila and Robbie invited us for their wedding, which took place in famous Gretna Green - place for weddings in Scotland.

Tanya Gubanova and I, Helen Demyanova, were invited to participate in the wedding as guests of honor.

We landed in Glasgow, and Robbie met us in the airport to take back home, where his fianc?e was finishing preparations on the day before wedding.

Scotland met us with gloomy but warm weather, and very charming highland cows...


...who ran away as soon as we stopped the car and tried to approach them to pet :-)


Final glass of "Sovietskoe" champagne we brought from home for Lyuda, while waiting for the car to take us to Gretna Green for the official ceremony

while on the ride to Gretna Green Lyuda was quite nervous on this important for her day...

and Tanya had fun and eased a bit Lyuda's tension, trying to guess in a mocking way whether our driver - family member young James who had on his clan's traditional colors, Scottish kilt and sporran... whether he was wearing anything under his kilt... :-)


we must admit - all men at the wedding were wearing kilts and sporrans - and looked so manly and handsome!




the wedding ceremony took place over an anvil - in ancient times Scottish blacksmiths had the right to conduct weddings, and Gretna Green being a smithy became world famous for this...

after the ceremony finished, we all started taking pictures to memorize this wonderful moment


and head off to a nice and charming restaurant in an old hotel, where wedding dinner began


there was a rainbow over us on that day - a very good sign for the newly weds!



to our regret we don't have photos from the most fun part of the evening - dancing, which we enjoyed enormously - we were introduced to Scottish traditional folk dances (which all men were dancing just great), and later on we danced even to Bob Marley's songs... It was a really great evening! :-)

next day happy wife was refilling her strength (after a nervous and tiring wedding day) :-)
and final picture with the Lyuda's new family, before we are leaving very friendly, very hospitable Scotland... See you next time!!!

On their first year wedding anniversary, September 11th, 2005 Tanya visited Scotland again, and had dinner together with Robbie and Lyuda in the same hotel where the wedding celebration took place. The couple is happy and still is deeply in love...

John Juliano met Eugenia at our agency in May 2003, on John's first visit to Kharkov they took a romantic trip to a village "Korobovy Khutora", near Kharkov, on the bank of the river. There is a famous restaurant and it is a wonderful resort area.

Second visit of John was in late September, and besides spending time in Kharkov they went to Crimea. John hired a mini-bus and the couple spent three days on the Crimean coast and visited Yalta, Alushta, Ai-Petri mountain, touring such sights as Uchan-Su waterfall, Swallow's Nest, took Cable car to Ai-Petri, visited Botanic Garden, and some other places.

Also John came to Kharkov in the middle of December 2003, when the couple spent ten days getting to know each other better, and taking a trip to Lubni, visiting monastery on the way there, toured other Ukrainian sights, as well as custom brewery and custom serviced traditional Ukrainian restaurant "U Sester". John is really fascinated with Ukraine, its places, sights, and people.

Within February 14th - February 22d, 2004 John and Eugenia undertook a trip to Slavyansk, a famous Ukrainian health resort, about 250km from Kharkov. There they stayed in a pension home, and had mud treatment at the local sanatorium facility. On this trip, John made a proposal to Zhenya, and she accepted. It was done in a very romantic way, with white hourse carriage and dinner at "Staraya Bashnya" restaurant.

All the time between the visits John and Eugenia kept constant contact through e-mail messages and ICQ messaging system. Eugenia is still studying English now, but they have never had problems with communication: John has advanced English-Russian translator program on his laptop, and Zhenya is an expert in expressing everything she wants to tell both with her English vocabulary and outstanding pantomime.
They have applied for Fiancee visa in February, Zhenya got it July 2004, and on July 17th, 2004 we have celebrated their Church Wedding which took place in Kharkov. Read the whole story of the American-Ukrainian wedding here.

After the trip to Crimea in September 2003 John kindly described his experience and thoughts about Ukraine and Crimea in a letter to other men clients, who may wish to travel around Ukraine. Please find his story illustrated by photos from the trip here.

Jack saw Nadyas photos on our agency's web-site in the beginning of 2001, they started corresponding since then, and in summer 2001 Jack came over to Kharkov for the first time. After this time he has been here many times, and in 2003 they decided to get married in Kharkov, so that Nadya's family and friends could attend the ceremony.

Internet Search Leads to Love in Kharkiv Zoo
By David Ginn

This is the story of how I met the love of life in Kharkiv, Ukraine.

Checking my e-mail at home one evening, along with all the usual spam, I found a message from a woman in Kharkiv who was quite obviously trying to run an Internet scam. This prompted me to run a Internet search on Kharkiv. I recalled that a large battle had been fought there in World War II, but that's all I knew about the place. One of the links resulting from the search was a marriage agency in Kharkiv, which piqued my interest enough for me to give it a look.

One of the women looking for a husband seemed too good to be true: A beautiful model finishing up her PhD in linguistics who spoke excellent English. So I figured "What the hell," and wrote her an e-mail which, against all odds, (she later showed me the huge box containing thousands of mostly unread e-mails she had received) she found interesting enough to reply to. Thus began a correspondence that culminated in my going to visit her about a year later in November 2000. Yelena was every bit as beautiful, interesting and intelligent as I had been led to believe, but unfortunately I apparently was not. This left me at loose ends in Kharkiv, which is -- to put this diplomatically -- not exactly a tourist paradise. But I'm running ahead of the story.

It all started at Kharkiv airport. The unheated terminal was freezing (it was late November) and there were more customs and immigration officials than there were people on the plane. Nonetheless, it took over an hour to escape their clutches.

I arrived at the apartment I had rented for the week and was shown how to operate the five locks on the front door. Yelena had called to tell me she was waiting on the street with a cab. So the woman I had come 11,000 kilometers to see was waiting outside in the snow:.

Twenty minutes later I stumbled outside an emotional wreck. That, combined with my lack of sleep for previous 28 hours and the fact that she was truly stunning probably excuses my slamming the cab door on her foot (the start of a beautiful relationship -- NOT). We got together one more time, and actually had a nice time together, but she apparently was looking for someone who looked a lot more like Fabio and had better romantic moves than Homer Simpson.

This left me at the aforementioned loose ends, so I started to explore Kharkiv. The economy is in tatters. Corruption is rampant. The buildings are falling apart due to neglect. And it has the most beautiful women I have ever seen. I swear I took to standing on the street corner in the freezing cold for hours just to watch them glide by in their fur coats.

I did manage to discover the secret to them all being model thin: The food sucks. Somebody needs to spread the word that the spice routes have been opened, because the news does not seem to have reached Ukraine. Sadly, McDonald's was the tastiest food in town. So much for exploring Kharkiv.

The owner of the marriage agency through which I had met Yelena asked me if I wanted to meet some other ladies. Out of sheer boredom I agreed. The first spoke English passably well, and at one point asked me what I was looking for in a woman. I forget my answer, but the obvious follow-up was to inquire what she was looking for in a man. She replied, "I am looking for strange man." I was just starting to think that this might be a match made in heaven when she amended this to, "Strong. Strong man." Just my luck. She also asked me at some point what my shoe size was. I thought this was an odd question until I remembered that she had related that a friend of hers had almost married an American man until she discovered that he had an embarrassing, ahem, shortcoming.

I also spent a reasonably enjoyable time with the second woman the agency set me up with, but again there were no romantic sparks.

The third woman I was introduced to was Yevgenia (Zhenya for short). From the moment we met, it was as if we had known each other forever. She spoke almost no English, but my Russian had improved enough during the week that our conversations managed to limp along. We talked and strolled through the city's parks and then went to the zoo, which looked rather sad. They clearly had no money and the poor animals were obviously badly kept. However, we first held each other in front of the yak pen. That's right, we fell in love in front of a yak.

Then I squired her off to the town's hot spot (yes, that's right -- McDonald's) before we retired to my apartment. She had mentioned several times how much she loved to cook, and told me that she wanted to cook dinner for me, so we went grocery shopping and then she made dinner. The only problem was, she couldn't cook to save her life. The food was worse than the stuff in the restaurants. But it seemed awfully important to her so I choked down a healthy serving of authentic Ukrainian cuisine. I had neglected to bring a corkscrew, so she charmed the construction crew next door into stopping work and using their tools to open our bottle, and we spent an enchanting evening together.

She returned the next morning to see me off to the airport. Zhenya and I continued the relationship via phone and e-mail, combined with return visits to Kiev, Kharkiv and Warsaw. Our relationship has had to navigate the quagmire of INS paperwork, the confusion of cultural differences (the first time she saw me use my credit card to get cash, she asked, "Can I have one of those?") and the language barrier, but she arrived here in California in early October of last year.

Louie met Nadya through Kharkov Girls agency, and before she got her visa, they met a couple of times more, he was coming over to Kharkov. Nadya was helped with filling out her Fiancee visa application forms for INS and interview by our agency "All Beautiful". After Nadya got to Texas, USA, they got married in Las Vegas in August 2001.

Roy Akers arrived into Kharkov on January 4th, 2001, and stayed for 7days. On this trip he met Natalya Kalinina, and they fell in love with each other. Roy proposed to Natasha, and she agreed to marry him. At that time Natasha did not speak any English, but she started learning it extensively, and by the time her visa was issued, she was able to reasonably speak and understand. Here are the photos from their engagement on January 7th:

The letter from Roy to "All Beautiful" agency:

Dear Prospective Clients of "All Beautiful" Agency,

I would like to tell anyone that is looking to the Ukraine to find a perspective wife that "All Beautiful" is a very good place to start and there are many good reasons.
Helen the manager answers your e-mail to the point and helps you solve problems. If you have an interest in a lady, she and Alla will call the lady and will find out what they think of you and tell you.
If you decide to make the trip to Kharkov, Helen and Alla give you prompt attention and give you helpful advice to make a prompt decision on making your trip worthwhile. For example, I thought Helen would be pushy and expect me to make a quick decision once I got to Kharkov. (I had been writing two ladies for about 4 1/2 months when I arrived.) She did neither. She told me to meet some more ladies once I arrived and told me not to waste a ladies time once I decided she was not marriage potential. I actually was going to go to a second city and meet several additional ladies but I met a lady that I knew was my match and met her every day and is now my fiancee. (More on that later.) The cost of coming to Kharkov is actually very reasonable both using the agencies services and the food and lodging. All Beautiful really gave me good value for the money. I only paid $8 per hour for interpreter services and $100 to the Agency for a whole week of their advice. The taxi's in the city are only $4-5 per use and dinner for 3 which includes the interpreter, wine and tip was only $13-15 American. (I'm not kidding!) Being that I wanted to have a good time and being in the company of beautiful women, I don't mind spending my money! An apartment by the Agency was $40 per night. Helen takes care of all that.
Finally and most importantly, why go? The women are very beautiful and unlike many American women, they know what they want! I think many American women need a psychiatrist! Most Ukrainian ladies are very Family orientated and want a man that they can be proud to call a husband. If you value a woman and want to have a family and will value a wife, you will find the women here a blessing. If you don't, you should stay home! The women here really liked me. I am very honest with them. I think they appreciated that. I enjoyed the company of all the women I met. Natalya, my fiancee, is all that I described and much more. I actually think for the first time in my life, have found a soul mate. We have become engaged and All Beautiful is still taking care of the correspondence and Natalya and I are speaking on the phone once per week. Helen has also for a small fee, helped get our application going by accepting faxes and so forth. They also can send your ladies your tokens of affection.
Gentleman, I couldn't be happier with All Beautiful and Helen's suggested that I meet more ladies changed my life.
