Lithuanian MMA fighter Dominykas Dirkstys proposed to his longtime partner Oksana Pikul during a high-profile event at the Žalgiris Arena in Kaunas on Saturday, April 18, 2026, sparking immediate plans for what he described as “the biggest wedding in Lithuanian history.” The surprise moment unfolded during the UTMA 18 combat sports tournament, where Dirkstys, 24, took the microphone in front of thousands of fans and asked Pikul, 42, to marry him. “Oksana Pikul, I have a question for all of Lithuania. Will you braid my hair before the fight and become my wife?” he said, referencing a personal ritual between the couple. Pikul responded by nodding her head, which Dirkstys confirmed was her way of saying yes. He later shared the news on Instagram, announcing that the couple intends to hold their wedding on April 25, 2026—just one week after the proposal. “Weddings possibly on April 25th. Live streamed. Everyone who wants to come can. Everything is calculated. The biggest wedding in Lithuanian history. More information coming soon,” Dirkstys wrote in his post, emphasizing that the event will be open to the public and widely accessible online. The proposal quickly gained attention across Lithuanian media, with outlets highlighting the emotional gesture and the couple’s public confirmation of their upcoming nuptials. Dirkstys also revealed he spent a significant amount on Pikul’s engagement ring, describing the cost as “five figures,” though he did not disclose an exact sum. Their relationship, which became public several months prior, has drawn consistent interest from fans and entertainment reporters alike. The upcoming wedding is expected to be one of the most talked-about celebrity events in Lithuania this year, blending personal tradition with a modern, inclusive celebration.
