Alex Ovechkin’s two-day wedding celebration ends with river cruise, fireworks over Moscow

Alex Ovechkin and Nastya Ovechkina’s wedding celebration spilled into a second day on Sunday, as friends and family of the couple went on a river cruise along the Moskva River. The Moskva River runs through the heart of Moscow, including Saint Basil’s Cathedral and the Kremlin.

The private boat ride included food and drinks as well as more performances from some of Russia’s finest musicians. The night ended like a fairytale with fireworks being shot high into the Moscow sky.

Alex and his bride took videos from the front of the boat’s concert area.

Hi, Kuzy.

As the cruise came to an end, the wedding party went outside to watch a fireworks show in the heart of the city. During the romantic moment, Ovechkin put his arm over his wife as they looked into the night sky.

This is cute.

One of the guests incredibly captured drone footage from the Moscow International Business Center.

Other friends took video from the boat.

Свадьба года! #овечкины #свадьбаовечкиных #зарганашоу
