White dress and black tailcoat, light veil lace and flower boutonniere decorated with limousine and wedding rings, a huge cake, champagne fireworks and joyful cries of “Bitter!” - all wedding paraphernalia will soon be a thing of the past, remaining in the memory of the heroes of the occasion and their guests in photographs and now fashionable CDs.
Wedding anniversaries
Yes, the festive excitement gives way to everyday life. And yesterday’s bridegroom and bride, and now husband and wife, begin to conduct a joint household, establish life, that is, "build a house, plant trees, raise children", rephrasing the famous statement. Year after year passes, and calico, paper, leather passed ... Each anniversary marks not just a period of 12 months or 365 days - these are minutes of happy laughter and moments of bitter insults, this is the sweetness of reconciliation and the mystery of knowing each other's characters. These are joint cares, experiences and joys. Therefore, when a family celebrates 25 years of life together - this is a victory over themselves, their shortcomings and selfishness. The 30th anniversary is a considerable experience, and it seems that the spouses have nothing to share, they have passed the test of time, poverty, temptations and passions. However, this is not entirely true. And only when the 35th anniversary is successfully crossed, the midlife crises characteristic of this period are overcome, we can say: “Yes, the marriage took place!” What is this magic figure - 35 years old? What wedding? It is worth thinking deeply over this!
Slavic names and symbols
Linen, coral, linen, jade - all adjectives refer to the same event. They say that the husband and wife have been married for 35 years (what a wedding!). What to give - find out a little later. First, a few words about the symbolism of the name. Why linen and linen? So this anniversary is called in Russia and other Slavic states. Linen canvas is particularly durable, high quality, wear resistance. But isn’t that what a couple’s relationship becomes, side by side for the whole 35 years? What a wedding is now clear from the name. And you can give luxurious linen bedding, tableware (tablecloths, napkins, etc. with an elegant pattern, handmade embroideries and lace stitches), curtains, curtains, suits, blouses, shirts ... All this is now very appreciated, as always natural fabrics, natural materials, real feelings were appreciated.
Western names and symbolism: why coral
They answer the questions in a slightly different way: “35 years - what kind of wedding?” - residents of Western European countries and the USA. The anniversary itself is also celebrated there very widely, especially in the light of respect for family values. But it is called coral and jade - quite, by the way, fairly! Corals - growths of organic origin, are formed on the rocky bottom of the seas and oceans. They form bizarre colonies, very beautiful and unusually tenacious. Over time, these polyps create entire islands - atolls. Truly a magnificent sight! It symbolically resembles a 35-year-old family life. What a wedding can still have such an original name!
Precious Jade
And finally, the last name of the event is jade. With him, too, everything is transparent. This gem was one of the first to be mastered by man. Statues of gods and columns of temples were carved from it, he adorned the decoration of great kings, omnipotent magicians and priests. Legends have been formed over the centuries about the special strength of the mineral. Therefore, it is not surprising that the magic gem, the divine talisman of good luck, is associated with the fact that people lived 35 years together. What wedding is still worthy of such solemn honors?
Gift Choice
Now is the time to speculate on gifts. With some (about flax) we have already familiarized ourselves. And the heroes of the day can decide for themselves: 35 years of marriage - what a wedding. If coral, then beads and brooches made of stone, cufflinks and tie pins, various mineral souvenirs are very useful. Cups and vases from it with bouquets-compositions from twigs will noticeably decorate the house and will become a wonderful memory of the celebration. This is on the one hand. On the other hand, what if the 35th wedding anniversary is considered to be jade? Well, no problem! Jewels will be used again, but from this gem. The choice here, of course, is huge - from impressive rings, bracelets, earrings and pendants to entire headsets. And for men, too, there are many tempting gizmos! Plus various souvenirs for home. Naturally, they will cost a lot, but the event is extraordinary!
Long live the surprises!
If you intend to celebrate your day “with feeling, sense, arrangement”, decide in advance whether 35 years is what kind of wedding. Congratulations, presents, banquets - all this takes time, careful thought and a creative approach. Let's start with the main thing. How can “newlyweds” congratulate each other? In vain, many believe that in adulthood people are incapable of romantic impulses. The husband will prove the opposite if, waking up on a significant day, the wife sees on her bedside table or dressing table a fragrant bouquet of 35 roses. Well, if it is issued in the shape of a heart - it will be symbolic. Important in this case is the color - flaming scarlet or virgin white: the color of coral. And nearby let the cherished box with jewelry adorn. The wife also should not remain in debt. And if the husband’s awakening begins with the contemplation of a luxurious bottle of collection vintage red wine - we dare to assure you, the man simply purrs with pleasure. Especially if one of the souvenirs is attached to the drink. Naturally, kisses, tender confessions and thanks for the fact that both the chosen ones have been together all these years - in sorrow and in joy.
Ideas for guests and more
No matter how many people the anniversaries are invited to the holiday, they must always observe the old tradition: to share parts of their spiritual warmth, happiness and goodwill with everyone who came to share their triumph. Therefore, the treat should crown a cake or a sweet cake of such a size that at least a small piece, but enough for everyone. This will mean that the couple wish those present a sweet and comfortable life. And in response, close relatives or family members can give a jade figurine of a money tree or Chinese god - symbols of good luck, stability, prosperity and prosperity in Feng Shui. Or a sculpture of hugging lovers, which will be very symbolic and very much in the subject. And congratulating you, you should wish the heroes of the occasion many years to be awake, active, young at heart and love each other like in the first years of life together. After all, after each anniversary, a new milestone in relations and a new countdown in family experience begins.
Honeymoon trip
And what real marriage anniversary can do without a
honeymoon? And since it is coral, the "newlyweds" must keep their way to the sea. Such a voyage will not only give new impressions, fill life with bright colors, but also allow you to relax, relax, give each other more attention and warmth than when work, work and all kinds of force majeure constantly interfere with the relationship. Do not deprive yourself of pleasure! Moreover, you raised children, grandchildren (if any) are also no longer infants. Homework can do without you. And you again feel like young, carefree romantics in love with life and with each other!
