What is going to be the cost of finding and finally marrying a woman from Russia or Ukraine

I will start of by saying this, this adventure your about to begin is not for the faint hearted this is going to take time a lot of patience and a strong determination to succeed.
If you are not the adventurous type, a patient man and willing to take the lead in most areas of your life then stop reading now you should look for someone in your own backyard.
If everything goes ok and is pretty straight forward and you find someone fairly quickly you can expect to fork out around $20-$25,000.00 initially.
If it takes you awhile to find someone and you have to make several trips then it will cost you around $50,000.00.
If you run into immigration problems and need an immigration lawyer to help you get your new bride or fiancé to your country then it is going to cost you around $100,000.00 + to find her, marry her then bring her to your country and it is still not guaranteed that you will win and get a visa for her.
What sort of costs should I budget for you ask well lets look at some of the things that you will need to pay for.

Costs for initial search of your Russian or Ukrainian bride once you have found the one you think is for you then the following costs will be incurred Plane tickets to her country, visa, accommodation, gifts for her and family, taxis, general living expenses food, restaurants etc, maybe a translator as well. You may make several trips before you find someone that you fall in love with and want to marry.
Ok your there you both hit it off and you both decide you want to spend the rest of your lives together you need to pay for a visa application, translations of documents, wedding costs, immigration lawyer or agents fees if you use one, medicals, certified copies of all necessary documents, proof of income employment etc, plane fares for her if she gets a visa. The chances are she will also want to bring some of her possessions with her so you should budget for this as well.
If there are any children involved then your costs will rise again, additional documents, visa, plane fares etc.
So you have done everything and you are waiting for her to receive her visa the chances are that you may have to return to visit her during the process as you could be waiting anywhere from 6 months to 2 years so additional expenses will be incurred, plane fares, gifts, maybe accommodation, taxis etc, you will probably also want to send her money to live on while you are waiting as well.
Now everything has worked out and she has arrived in your country the chances are she will want to put her stamp on everything make her mark ( mark her territory) you could be up for renovating costs, whether it be from painting one room to changing everything so that she feels it is her home as well. She will also want new clothes to suit her new environment; there will also maybe costs for English lessons, insurances, car, health cover, dental cover, extra food costs, water, electricity etc.

You also have to remember there are many variables to this and you may find it will be alot cheaper than the above costs.

This is only a short version (Summary) of what it could cost but if you want to do this and you asked me what do I budget for I would say to you absolute worse case scenario should things go wrong with immigration process start at $100k and anything less would be a bonus.
