Celebrating wedding anniversaries

But... Let's not talk about sad things. It’s better to talk about what kind of wedding anniversaries happen in happy family unions. Such important anniversaries are celebrated from 1 to 100 years of marriage. Wedding anniversaries are celebrated very magnificently and solemnly after thirty years of marriage, since for those who have lived so many years side by side, one of the most significant moments in life is the first wedding.

Wedding anniversaries have different names. Silver and pearl, gold, copper and glass, leather and wood, chintz and paper wedding, – there are so many names! Each such name for a wedding anniversary symbolizes something, and each of them means a lot... For example, a glass wedding is celebrated after fifteen years of marriage, it got its name as a warning that glass can be unusually beautiful, but its easy to break. Therefore, in order to save the family, spouses need to become very restrained and attentive to each other.

And here silver wedding celebrated after twenty-five years of living together - this is already love and devotion that have been tested by time. After all, silver is a precious, strong metal that has incredible life-giving powers.
A very prosaic name for the wedding anniversary, which is celebrated after thirty-five years of marriage, is “linen wedding.” But this name is also quite justified. Over the years, the family has already become one common organism, which is woven like a canvas from many threads - these are spouses, children, grandchildren, and sometimes great-grandchildren.

Wedding anniversaries celebrated after this date have no less meaningful names. Noble and red, stone and iron, ruby ​​and diamond... Each of these weddings means a certain stage of married life, and each of them, for time-tested love, is a special hymn.

For example, at a chintz wedding, which is celebrated every year from the day the family was created, the celebrants of the day are presented with things made of chintz and linen as gifts. On a paper wedding anniversary, after two years of married life, the spouses are given souvenirs made of glass and paper. For a copper wedding, which is celebrated after seven years of marriage, gifts made of copper are given, since the family is considered durable, like copper.

A silver wedding means gifts made of silver, and for a pearl wedding, after thirty years of living together, jewelry made of pearls. For a golden wedding anniversary, of course, they give gold. And for a diamond one... It is advisable, of course, to give diamonds, but many of the guests cannot afford such a gift. Therefore, the diamond, golden jubilee and the anniversaries that are celebrated after them do not need any special symbolism of gifts. And to give to the already aged, but, as before, happy newlyweds, you need something that can bring them joy.

You can give cards for all wedding anniversaries. It’s good that today there are a lot of them on sale, and you can always choose a fairly original postcard that will best suit the special moment. Of course, the inscriptions in these holiday cards should be approachable and cheerful, very friendly and certainly focused on the specifics of the wedding anniversary. And then such a postcard will become a bright, memorable gift for the spouses, which they keep all their lives.

In other words, in order to congratulate the heroes of the day with dignity, it is not enough to know what wedding anniversary they will celebrate. In order not to miss and not to give, for example, linen towels for a glass wedding anniversary, it is necessary, when choosing a gift, to find out what exactly is presented for such an anniversary.
