Wedding anniversary 25 years. Silver wedding: how to celebrate the anniversary and what to give for it
Instruction
Think of those ceremonies and rituals that you can perform on this special, significant day. Start your morning with a kiss. It will remind you of your wedding day. Without getting out of bed, you need to kiss your spouse, and the longer this kiss lasts, the happier and longer your life together will be in the future. This ancient sign is the same as the “first kiss”.
Then, on the same day at dawn, you can perform another rite. In the old days, the spouses went to the river early in the morning, poured water into a silver jug and, pouring from it, helped each other to wash. In modern conditions, water can be taken from the tap, the main thing is to find a silver jug. First, the wife washed her husband three times and dried him with a linen towel, then the husband did the same. Each ablution has its own meaning.
The first washing washes away the years, and the spouses become a quarter younger, the second washing washes away the hardships and sorrows experienced, and the water takes them away with it. Washing for the third time, husband and wife meet a new life. After the ceremony, the jug is put out into the courtyard or balcony until the water has completely evaporated, which symbolizes the departure from them in the future life of all sorrows. The faster the water evaporates, the more carefree and happier life will be.
Following tradition, invite parents in advance. In the old days, the washing ritual ends with their arrival. They check if the water in the jug and the towel is dry, and only after that. If the water is not dry, they will have to wait. To prevent this from happening, the spouses should get up early and perform the ritual of washing at dawn.
Exchange silver rings, as on the first day of life together. This is the most important, significant and beautiful rite of the day. A solemn ceremony can be arranged at home, in a restaurant and even in the registry office. The bride puts on an elegant dress, and a white wedding dress is also possible. At this ceremony, there must be those witnesses who were present at the registration of the marriage. They will confirm your love one more time.
Try to perform the ceremony at noon, when the sun is at its zenith. And if it shines on the celebration, it means that your feelings have not faded away at all for such a long period.
If you wish, you can invite the holy father. This ceremony in the old days was performed by the priest, again crowning the spouses. But if you still haven't got married in a church, then a silver wedding is the best suited for this purpose.
By exchanging gold rings for silver ones, you will remove the first ones for 25 years and carefully save, as well as your love, until the celebration of the golden wedding, where you will exchange them again.
Adhering to modern trends that have come into use not so long ago, a husband and wife can wear silver rings over gold rings. But this new trend is very criticized by the older generation.
If held at home, before removing the dishes from the table, you should arrange a tea party for yourself at an uncleaned table. Remember today's solemn day, past years, make plans for the future. And now you can start cleaning. And the husband, of course, should help his wife, thereby showing her his respect and care.
Do not limit yourself to the rituals described above. Presenting flowers remains the main tradition. The husband should congratulate his wife in the morning and give her a bouquet of her favorite flowers. These can be magnificent roses, or they can be modest field daisies, which the “bride” loves so much.
Be sure to invite the same guests who attended the most. Send out the invitation at least 25 days before the main event. It is also believed that at least 25 people should be present at the silver celebration, but more can be.
Treat your guests with various dishes. Like 25 years ago at the wedding itself, the anniversary should not be complete without a loaf or cake, which the spouses cut again together. Keep in mind that all guests must receive a piece so that each of them shares your happiness with you! Don't forget about champagne - the first toast is always offered for this sparkling drink.
Make a gift for yourself too - invite a toastmaster if you want to get maximum pleasure and minimum problems.

The high peak of everyday difficult mountains.
Silver horses will not reach the goal,
When the good family harmony does not rule on the way.

A luxurious garden will not grow the wealth of love,
Silver wedding is more expensive than all awards!

A strong and happy marriage of 25 years is a solid achievement that not every couple can boast of.
A quarter of a century is collectively referred to as the silver wedding. How best to celebrate this joyful event and what guests traditionally give to the heroes of the occasion - you will learn from our article.
origin of name
The tradition of assigning the name of a material to marriage originates in Europe. The material is selected taking into account what features marital relations have during this period of time. Paper, leather, tin - many associations cause marriage at first. But the union of spouses acquires the highest value precisely after 25 years. That is why the anniversary is called silver.
Silver is an amazing metal. In addition to the obvious superiority (for example, value and beauty), it has healing properties, is able to protect its owner. Exactly the same family ties with such a long history involve taking care of the spouse, getting rid of all sorts of ailments. Silver is durable. No small troubles are no longer able to destroy family happiness. Many crisis milestones have been passed, and it seems that marriage can no longer destroy anything.
Silver also has a sad property - without proper care and attention, it becomes dull over time, and then blackens. This is a great metaphor for family relationships, which spouses should not forget.25 years of marriage - what a wonderful date and what a serious occasion! Therefore, as a rule, the “young” cannot avoid a noisy celebration. The holiday can be held:
- At the restaurant. It will be especially symbolic to receive guests in the same institution where 25 years ago, and all together remember what a wonderful wedding it was.
- At home, you can't find a more comfortable place. In addition, joint preparation for the celebration will help the spouses get even closer.
- At the recreation center. This option is ideal to celebrate the anniversary of the "summer" marriage.
If we turn to traditions, they prescribe that the number 25 should become a real leit motif of the celebration. A husband can give his wife a bouquet of 25 roses, there must be at least 25 guests at the table, and if other references are possible, you should also not miss the chance (for example, if there is an institution in the city whose name contains this number).
The celebration should be decorated in silver tones, look luxurious. It is not at all necessary to spend fabulous sums at the same time, you can get by with materials that imitate silver - polished cutlery to a shine, serving dishes, balloons, foil decorations ... However, one silver object should still lie on the table to serve as the personification of the value of marriage .
If life circumstances have developed in such a way that the “young” cannot afford a feast for the whole world, you can spend a holiday together. For example, arrange a romantic dinner for two or go on a trip with your children. As a rule, the latter at this time are at an age when they are able to make their financial contribution to the trip.
No matter how you celebrate this day, you need to start it with a strong kiss from your other half. It is believed that the longer this kiss lasts, the more happy years the couple will have together.Since ancient times, it has been said that the Silver wedding should largely repeat the Green one (that is, the wedding day itself). This is explained by the fact that the holiday is the beginning of a new life for the spouses. You can take care of the festive outfits for the "groom" and "bride" in advance, and be sure to invite your boyfriend and boyfriend. The latter must “report” how valuable the marriage they witnessed 25 years ago is. Well, what is a wedding without the cherished “Bitter! » ? During the celebration, this exclamation should sound literally after each toast.
