Bloggers online are discussing the gorgeous wedding of 31-year-old Russian professional hockey player Alexander Ovechkin with 23-year-old model, daughter of the famous actress Vera Glagoleva Anastasia Shubskaya.
Guests of the event actively publish corresponding photos and videos on Instagram.
It should be noted that Ovechkin and Shubskaya began dating in March 2015. In the summer of 2016, the young people got married in a modest ceremony in a narrow family circle.
And on Saturday, July 8, almost a year after the painting, the couple held a magnificent wedding in the Barvikha Luxury Village concert hall.
Shubskaya appeared before the guests of the event in a snow-white dress with lace on the back and sleeves. Later, the bride changed her outfit to a more open one.
The groom, in turn, wore a classic black suit with a bow tie.
The hosts of the celebration were Russian singer Nikolai Baskov and showman, comedian, TV presenter and singer Alexander Revva, who performs under the pseudonym Arthur Pirozhkov.
Also seen at the celebration were many Russian celebrities, including Dima Bilan’s producer Yana Rudkovskaya, singers Olga Orlova, Katya Lel and Angelika Agurbash, Joseph Kobzon, banned in Ukraine, and many others.
Also performed at the wedding scandalous musician Sergey Shnurov (Shnur).
Russian President Vladimir Putin himself congratulated Ovechkin on his important day.
However, netizens did not appreciate the grandiose floral decorations and lush decorations of the guests. What caught their attention most was that the legendary hockey player did not take care of his appearance. In photos and videos from the celebration, he appeared with an unkempt hairstyle, unshaven and with a broken tooth.
hercegina: What kind of homeless person? And who is this beauty?
koscova1983: Maybe you can take out a loan and insert a tooth?
Lidianik: Was it really impossible even for your own wedding to shave and get a haircut like a human being??? It's like he just took off his helmet...
beautystore_ast: Please insert the tooth
regina979797: Wow, what a groom! No matter how much money he has for such a husband!!? Looks like a drunk, creepy
marinanozhenkova: I didn’t immediately realize that it was Ovechkin. The first thought is, what a beautiful, well-groomed girl, but she’s marrying an alcoholic, and it’s not even about the teeth....
gozelenagoz: His haircut is not fashionable, he is dressed unkemptly (since the bride changes her outfit and the groom can change his wet shirt), not a groom, but a “mule in horse harness”
nastena6may: Damn, why is he such a Barmaley, huh!? Just put in a tooth and get a haircut and he’s a handsome man! Beautiful girl!
Maraladok: spolt is a zyzn
Many hinted that Shubskaya married “out of convenience” and not out of love.
Number 8 is a lucky number for Alexander. Under this number he plays for the Washington Capitals club, and on 08/08/08 he met the love of his life - Nastasia Shubskaya. It is not surprising that they decided to have their wedding on the 8th.
Their romance could have begun nine years ago, when they first met in the Russia House at the Beijing Olympics. Nastya came to China with her parents, and Sasha came as the main sensation of the sports world: he had just signed a contract with the Washington Capitals hockey club for a record $124 million. But then their communication was limited to just getting to know each other and slow dancing; each of them at that moment had other goals: Sasha wanted to fully realize himself in sports, and Nastya wanted to go to college. But you can't escape fate.
One evening, three-time world champion Alexander Ovechkin saw his friend, VGIK graduate Nastasia Shubskaya, on Instagram and decided to write to her. This is how a virtual friendship began, and after a couple of months Nastya flew to Los Angeles for acting classes and met Sasha there.
We went to the restaurant. I admit, I was a little worried that we would have nothing to talk about, because we had already discussed everything over the phone. It turned out that we always have something to talk about,” Nastya said in her first interview with HELLO!.
The girl decided not to tempt fate any further and instead of a ticket to Moscow to see her family, she bought a ticket for a flight to Washington - to see her beloved. The young people did not delay the wedding, and last summer, when they arrived in Moscow, they went to the registry office, quietly, without witnesses, signed their names and flew to America.
The bride and groom's gathering took place at the Barvikha Hotel & Spa, where they also held their first wedding night. For the most important day Alexander chose a Tom Ford tuxedo, Wedding by Mercury, a Brioni shirt, boots and bow tie, cufflinks and a Hublot watch
The status of a family man also had a good effect on Ovechkin’s career: he did it for the sixth time in his career - no one else has succeeded so far! - received the Maurice Richard Trophy, the prize for the best NHL sniper of the season, and earned his thousandth point in the league, becoming the 84th hockey player in NHL history to achieve this mark, and also entered the list of 100 best players NHL of all time. Behind every victory and goal scored is a lot of work not only by Sasha, the coach, but also by Nastya, who surrounds him with care, attention and love.
“I used to be very worried about how he was there alone,” says Alexander’s mother, Tatyana Nikolaevna. - And now I’m calm. What else do I need to be happy?
Alexander Ovechkin with his parents - mother Tatyana Nikolaevna and father Mikhail Viktorovich - and Nastasia Shubskaya When Sasha posted his and Nastya’s first joint photo on Instagram in the spring of 2015, many decided that they were just friends. Indeed, what can connect a brutal hockey player with a girl from high society? Nastya's photographs regularly appeared in glossy magazine in the section "The Most enviable brides Russia".
Shubskaya’s reputation, it must be said, is impeccable: her name has never appeared in scandals, and at events she always appeared in the company of her mother, actress Vera Glagoleva, and her father, businessman Kirill Shubsky, so the highest demands were placed on the groom. But time passed, and there were more and more joint photographs. Soon, those around him no longer had any questions: these two were made for each other.
Nastya decided to introduce her chosen one to her family on Sasha’s territory and, when Vera Vitalievna flew to her daughter in Washington, she invited her mother to hockey.
Mom turned out to be a very temperamental fan. Of course, I also always worry about Sasha, on the one hand, but on the other, he plays in such a way that you have to worry about everyone else,” Nastya admits, laughing.
Tough, brash and fearless on the ice, Sasha turned out to be kind and sensitive off it and quickly became part of his fiancée's family.
We, as parents, dreamed for a very long time about the day when our daughter would get married. And we are very glad that Sasha became her chosen one. We were struck by what an open, cheerful and sympathetic person he is,” admitted Kirill Yulievich.
A year ago, the newlyweds decided to have a magnificent celebration this summer. But nevertheless, they had little time to prepare.
We live in Washington, and it was very difficult to organize the holiday remotely, and Sasha was in season, and I tried not to distract him. So all our work began in May, when we returned to Moscow,” says Nastya. On the occasion of the wedding of the country's main hockey player, the doors of the Meiendorf estate, the residence of the Russian President in the Moscow region, were opened for the ceremony. The couple's friends in evening dresses, accompanied by the "Waltz of the Flowers" performed by a live orchestra, walked to the flower arch and waited with bated breath for the appearance of the main characters of the day. Everything was perfect until one “uninvited guest” appeared at the wedding - heavy rain. But even he could not spoil the mood of those present.
They say that rain at a wedding is a good sign, but here it almost snows in July, so everything will be great for the guys,” the guests joked, standing under umbrellas.
After exchanging vows, rings and kisses, the newlyweds went to a banquet at Barvikha Luxury Village.
At the wedding of Ovechkin and Shubskaya, people from completely different different worlds: athletes and actors, directors and coaches; While waiting for the newlyweds, they had a lot to talk about. Thus, Katya Lel learned all the intricacies of scoring in hockey from Ilya Kovalchuk, and Vladislav Tretyak was interested in news from the world of cinema from Stanislav Govorukhin. But as soon as the newlyweds appeared in the hall, all the pucks and hockey sticks, roles and movie clappers were forgotten.
The guests' eyes were focused on Nastya in a dress from Svetlana Lyalina and Alexander in a classic Tom Ford tuxedo. Like a true captain, Ovechkin was the first to speak.
I want to say thank you to my dad for spending days and nights training with me, and to my mom for monitoring my sports regime. I wouldn't be standing here without you.

During the celebration, the Barvikha Luxury Village concert hall was transformed. “We placed the main emphasis on the design of the ceiling. The decor was based on three elements: crystal, mirrors and flowers - hydrangeas, peonies, roses. It was a pleasure for us to work with Nastasia: she has an amazing sense of style,” said HELLO! head of the agency LID"S EVENTHOUSE Lidiya Simonova
The newlyweds decided not to delay the official part and, after kind instructions from relatives and closest friends, moved on to the musical component of the evening. Lyubov Uspenskaya was the first to appear on stage and performed the song “To the One and Tender” in a duet with the bride.
Once on Nastya’s Instagram page I saw her singing this song beautifully at karaoke. That’s why today I boldly give the microphone to her,” said Lyubov Uspenskaya.
During Lyubov Uspenskaya's performance, Nastya appeared in the hall in a new spectacular outfit(dress, Galia Lahav, Blanche Moscow; jewelry, Mercury). It’s no secret to the newlyweds’ friends: Nastya sings beautifully. Gifts for the groom were the songs “I’m at your feet” and “To the only one, tender” performed by the bride
In the middle of the evening, when the celebration was in full swing, the music suddenly turned off and host Nikolai Baskov ran up to the newlyweds’ table with a phone in his hands. “Sasha, Nastya, the president himself is calling you, he wants to congratulate you personally,” Nikolai warned. So that all guests could hear Vladimir Putin’s speech, Alexander turned on the speaker, and Nikolai brought the microphone to the phone
During the dance of the bride and groom and their parents to the song “A Girl Leaves for Another” by Joseph Kobzon, even the most persistent guests became emotional
The evening was not limited to the performance of the star of Russian chanson and then began to more and more resemble “Song of the Year”: folk artists and the most sought-after musicians replaced each other on stage one after another.
Sasha and I immediately decided that Boney M. would perform at the wedding - everyone knows their hits. We also decided to invite rapper Basta, whom Sasha loves, and the group “Leningrad” - everyone loves them. By the middle of the evening, the bride managed to complete a “hat-trick” and change three outfits. For the culmination of the holiday - bringing out the wedding cake - she came out in a luxurious gold dress. The cake, more than three meters high, is another work by the master of culinary creations Renat Agzamov, caused delight and made all the guests take out their phones again. After the masterpiece was captured from all angles, even those who are always on a diet could not deny themselves the pleasure of trying it. So that guests could enjoy the holiday and not think about fatigue, the organizers prudently prepared sets with slippers, so that the most persistent shouted “Bitter!” and danced until the morning.

But when the wedding cake from Renat Agzamov was brought out at midnight, no one could refuse a piece.

Last August, however, the newlyweds did not celebrate their wedding. The hockey player and model decided to hold the celebration in Russia with their family and friends. Today, on the Day of Family, Love and Fidelity, Nastya Shubskaya finally put on a luxurious bride’s dress and, together with her famous lover, greeted guests in Barvikha near Moscow.
Anastasia Shubskaya wore a snow-white dress trimmed with lace on the back and sleeves. The bridesmaids came to the event in golden-colored dresses. The groom, like all his friends, was in classic black suit with bow tie. The bride's mother, Vera Glagoleva, supported her daughter, who was worried, despite the fact that she had been officially married since August 20, 2016. Glagoleva chose a floor-length dress and a pearl-colored stole for her daughter’s wedding.
Directly during the wedding, neither Ovechkin nor Shubskaya published photos and videos on their microblogs, but the guests invited to the celebration did this for them. Fans of the couple were especially pleased with Yana Rudkovskaya: she conducted a real broadcast, posting on Instagram photographs and videos that captured the most significant moments of the Ovechkins’ wedding. For example, it was thanks to Rudkovskaya that the public learned that at the wedding banquet the main course was dorado fillet with stewed vegetables and veal medallions in cognac-pepper sauce with baked potatoes with rosemary, and on the tables there was red caviar and dishes with pickled cucumbers and cabbage and tomatoes.

Let us remind you that as for Anastasia, the hockey player was engaged to a tennis player Maria Kirilenko. But on the eve of the wedding, they ended the relationship. The athletes separated in 2014. Shubskaya also had serious relationship. She dated a financier for three years Artem Bolshakov. He even proposed to her. But, after graduating from the Financial Academy in Moscow, in the fall of 2014, Artem entered the master’s program at the International Business School in Boston and left to study. The feelings of Anastasia and Artem did not stand the test of distance.
In 2015, the daughter of Vera Glagoleva began dating Alexander Ovechkin. None of the hockey player’s friends could believe that it would come to a wedding, and the young beauty would be able to pacify his Casanova temperament. Nevertheless, Nastya succeeded. Alexander, who is not eloquent in life, after meeting Shubskaya, began publicly making declarations of love on his microblog. Glagoleva admits that at first she was wary of the appearance of such a character in her daughter’s life. However, he was able to win her love and trust. All doubts were dispelled after meeting Ovechkin’s parents: it became clear that Alexander was serious.

Nastya’s parents met in 1991 at the Odessa film festival “Golden Duke”. 27-year-old millionaire shipowner Kirill Shubsky fell in love with the charming 35-year-old actress Vera Glagoleva at first sight and showered her with bouquets of roses and luxurious gifts. He surrounded Anya and Masha, Glagoleva’s daughters from her first marriage with Rodion Nakhapetov, with care and attention. The actress could not resist the onslaught of the impressive businessman and responded to his feelings. She quit cinema, took the children and left for Switzerland with her lover for two years. There, on November 16, 1993, their daughter Nastasya was born. 
The girl was born under unusual circumstances. The doctors at the local clinic did not know Russian, and Vera had to call a friend who translated the obstetricians’ recommendations for the woman in labor. From her first days, the baby was surrounded by love and adoration, all doors were open to her, and her every wish was immediately fulfilled. At the same time, she grew up as a persistent, self-confident and independent child, capable of defending her point of view.
I played tennis as a child, figure skating and gymnastics, and later became interested in ballet following the example of her sister Anya. IN adolescence made her debut in the film Ca-de-bo (2005), which was never completed. A year later, she played the role of the daughter of the heroes Alena Babenko and Ilya Shakunov in Vera Glagoleva’s film “Ferris Wheel” (2007).
Career
After graduating from school as an external student, Nastya entered the VGIK production department and moved from her parents’ house to a rented apartment. From that moment her independent adult life began. In 2009, she starred with her mother in her next film “A Woman Wants to Know...”, and two years later she took part in the debutante ball of the Chanel fashion house. 
Her appearance did not go unnoticed, and Nastasya seriously thought about a modeling career. She began to receive invitations from prestigious glossy publications, and in 2015, dressed in a dress from Valentin Yudashkin, Shubskaya became the queen of a fashion show organized for the 20th anniversary of the Russian Silhouette Foundation.
But the ambitious girl soon got bored with her work as a model and became more of a hobby for her. Nastasya moved to the United States and entered the acting courses in Los Angeles, intending to devote his future career to cinema.
Personal life of Anastasia Shubskaya
It goes without saying that from a young age, the charming daughter of influential and wealthy parents was surrounded by crowds of admirers. Nastya had her first serious romance at the age of nineteen - with the famous financier Artem Bolshakov. Shubskaya was even going to marry him, but after the businessman left for the United States, their feelings gradually faded away. 
But Nastasya did not remain alone for long, and soon rumors began to spread about her affair with world hockey legend Alexander Ovechkin. Their first meeting took place many years ago, at the Beijing Olympics, where Nastya came with her father.
Later, they crossed paths more than once in common companies, but began dating after Shubskaya described on her Instagram an incident that happened to her on vacation in the Emirates. Then the girl almost drowned, and Alexander considered it necessary to support her and inquire about her well-being.
A correspondence ensued, followed by a personal meeting. Since then, the lovers have not parted. In August 2016, they officially registered their relationship, and celebrated in Moscow on July 8, 2017 luxurious wedding. Anastasia took her husband's surname. Even before becoming the wife of the famous hockey player, Anastasia gave an interview to the wedding publication Wedding, in which she admitted that she was ready to become a mother: “Children should be born in marriage. Since we are planning children, why not legalize our relationship now.”
