Ania Rusowicz married herself. “I vowed by the moon”.

Ania Rusowicz married herself. She told about the unique ceremony

Ania Rusowicz has had a difficult time with the end of her marriage to Hubert Gasiol. For a long time the artist did not speak publicly about the details of the break-up, although she had previously hinted that there was a crisis in her relationship. After the divorce, however, she decided to symbolically close this phase of her life and do something to look to the future with renewed vigour.

In the Gossip Galaxy podcast, the singer talked about the unusual ceremony she organised together with friends. Rusowicz decided to marry herself. The ceremony was supposed to resemble a real wedding, but its meaning was completely different.

Ania Rusowicz sets her sights on a new beginning after her divorce

The divorce was a painful experience for Ania Rusowicz. The artist admitted that she did not want to organise a divorce party, although such events are sometimes fashionable. She felt that there was no reason to celebrate something involving sadness and loss. Instead, she decided to celebrate regaining her peace, independence and relationship with herself.

That’s when the idea of having a symbolic wedding came up. Together with friends, the singer created an event to help her bring closure to the past.

I came up with this idea after my divorce. There were such fashionable divorce parties, but I decided that there was nothing to celebrate here at all, that divorce is quite an unpleasant experience and why celebrate it at all. Something much more pleasant should be celebrated. I decided with my friends, who own a centre (…) where weddings take place, that maybe we should organise a wedding,” she said.

The ceremony was prepared with great attention to detail. As Ania Rusowicz revealed, the event had many elements of a traditional wedding and reception. There was a bachelorette party, a reception with a DJ and even an after-wedding party. However, it was not about a classic marriage, but a symbolic ritual.

For the artist, the most important thing was the message of the ceremony. The wedding to herself was meant to signify fidelity to her own values, greater care for herself and a conscious entry into a new stage of life.

Ania Rusowicz took her vows in front of the moon

The most personal moment of the ceremony was the vow the singer made to herself. It took place by moonlight. Rusowicz stressed that she promised herself love, loyalty to her own ideals and that she would not act against herself.

I made a vow to myself in front of the moon that I would be true to my own ideals, that I would always love myself and that I would not betray myself above all. And that if I act against myself, my friends are to kick me in the ass,” the singer confessed.

These words show that for Ania Rusowicz the ceremony was not just an unusual idea, but an emotionally important ritual. The artist treated it as a form of regaining her agency after a difficult break-up.

Unusual ceremony helped her to bring closure to the past

Ania Rusowicz’s wedding to herself was primarily symbolic and therapeutic. The singer made no secret of the fact that the divorce was difficult for her, also financially. However, instead of dwelling on unpleasant emotions, she decided to create a memory that would be associated with strength, support from loved ones and a new beginning.

The artist’s decision may come as a surprise, but Rusowicz herself has shown that it is possible to look for one’s own ways to rebuild oneself after painful experiences. In her case, it was a wedding by the moon, a wedding with friends and a vow made to the most important person in her life – herself.
