The name of the fifth anniversary at first glance seems unpretentious and too mundane: "wooden wedding". No romance! This is not the luxury of the Golden Jubilee, nor the radiant shine of the Diamond, and not even the cheerful colors of the Calico, which marks the first year of marriage.

The wooden wedding is celebrated on the fifth anniversary. The spouses should plant a “wedding” tree, show the guests that they have learned to hammer in nails and, of course, drink champagne!

In fact, the Wooden Wedding is one of the most important dates: this is the time to sum up the main results, the moment when it is time to make serious plans for the future, based on what has already been achieved.

Wooden wedding is done in a wooden interior

Yes, and also a wooden wedding is a reason to receive wonderful gifts: and what, they deserve!

About the importance of the Wooden Jubilee and why it is Wooden

Why are we talking about the "main" results for the fifth year of marriage? After all, they did not live together for fifty years. But because the tree begins to bear fruit by the age of five.

In the first five years of marriage, most families have children. By this time, as a rule, they acquire their own apartment or house. Well, psychologists-sexologists also talk about the importance of the five-year milestone: it is at this time that a deep feeling comes to replace passionate, but far from solidity, falling in love, responsibility for loved ones comes to the fore.

That is, by and large, only after five years the union of two lovers can be called a family.

A marriage in five years is like a tree: fruits appear in a lush crown, and a reliable trunk withstands adversity

There are many versions of why five years are called "wooden". An analogy is drawn between the strength of wood and the strength of marriage. The first year is frivolous chintz, the second is paper that is easy to tear, the third is capricious skin, and the fourth is delicate linen.

A tree is yes, it is already something strong on the one hand, and, at the same time, in need of care and protection - on the other: a tiny spark is enough to instantly burn everything to the ground by negligence.

There is a "gift" version: the couple already have their own home, it's time to donate furniture. Life is settled, there is enough space to put dressers-wardrobes, and the family has become larger, there is a need for cots, new tables and chairs.

And yet, marriage in five years really resembles a tree in form and essence: the roots have gone deep into the ground, the crown has grown. A tree is not a beautiful flower of love for you that will wither on the third day! It is reliable and solid, knows how to withstand adversity, and in its branches birds sing and fruits ripen ...

What to give for a wooden wedding

Any wooden products are suitable as a gift. In Russia, the husband for this anniversary carved something out of wood with his own hands, the wife varnished or painted.

You can give anything! Decorations, dishes, boxes, frames - the main thing is that there is a tree

The product was displayed and carefully preserved. But what if the husband is an excellent sysadmin or programmer, and the woodcarver is not? - Go to the store!

A thing bought with love is no worse (and maybe even better) than a cutting board cut with cursing. The wife also gives her husband something wooden: a cigarette holder, a keychain, a set of rolling pins ...

The wife may well give just such a rolling pin: a funny thing, and it will come in handy on the farm

Dear guests can give everything: from wooden spoons and linden barrels with honey to wooden cottages with oak furniture. It is clear that cottages and headsets are in priority, but any wooden utensils, beautiful and useful in the household, are an excellent gift! For example, caskets, photo frames.

By the way, you can find jewelry inlaid with wood. There will be three in one: stylish, luxurious, symbolic.

There is another type of gifts that are customary to present this day: everything that is somehow related to health. We are not talking about a pack of analgin or a tonometer, of course. But anyone will be happy with a ticket to a sanatorium or a subscription to a gym (or spa).

Rituals and scripts for a wooden wedding

At a classic wooden wedding, they repeat the real one, but in a humorous tone. They invite the same guests who were at the wedding five years ago.

All types of verification of spouses for consistency of actions, the ability to collectively fight back in any situation are welcomed.

Quizzes and contests on the topic “how well a husband knows his wife”, “how well a husband’s wife knows”, contests where the ability to understand each other without words is required - this is what will be appropriate at this holiday.

It is customary to celebrate a wooden wedding in the open air, under the canopy of trees. In cold weather, it is better to transfer the celebration under a roof; the ideal option is a hall of a cafe or restaurant, decorated with wood.

An important component of the scenario is the planting of a seedling. Oak means reliability and longevity; maple - wealth; birch - fertility, light, purity; linden - eternal love.

You can plant a whole grove so that everything is in abundance.
