Joint marriage life may be different, but each strives for harmony and comfort, so that it is always pleasant to return home, plunging into a pleasant atmosphere. So that the daily routine and life would not devastate the spouses, it is worth more often to organize some events and surprises for each other. If you can’t please your soul mate for no reason, then in the case of a wedding anniversary it’s worth trying and doing something special and very pleasant.

"Young" marriages

No matter how many years the couple has lived together, it is always worth treating the wedding anniversary as the most important holiday of the family. If you do not pay due attention to your second half, do not prove that the day of your marriage was the happiest and most important, then there is a threat of the disintegration of such a family. For a happy married life, it is necessary to constantly remind you how much the husband loves his wife and she, organizing a variety of activities for this.

A wedding anniversary gift is not a necessary thing, but a very pleasant one. Whatever the date may be, round or not, it will be pleasant for both husband and wife to get a surprise that tells about the love of the second half.

You can use unusual ideas, invent surprises, or donate something that is expensive to a partner or what traditions advise.

  • First anniversary referred to as a chintz wedding, and therefore the gift must be appropriate.
  • Third anniversary - leather wedding, because the choice of a gift can be very interesting.
  • Fifth bears the name of a wooden wedding that can push on the correct choice of a surprise or an interesting idea for organizing a holiday.
  • Seventh date living together has the name of a copper wedding, which gives a direct hint at the options for gifts to spouses.
  • Tenth anniversary called tin, because the gift must also be appropriate.

Each of these dates is special, and therefore a gift for a loved one should mean something. It is not necessary to give something from calico a year after the wedding, but such a gift will be pleasant and symbolic, which can strengthen the union and make it happier.

Funny gifts can be made of leather, if the third anniversary of life together is celebrated, which largely “patted” the spouses and “gave the belt”, but those who survived rewarded in full.

Original gifts husband can make his wife in the sixth year of marriage, presenting something of iron. The main thing is to pack the gift beautifully and present it in such a way that the spouse does not consider it as another commitment, and with joy and inspiration he baked, cooked or roasted on a new cast-iron product. The decade from the date of the wedding is quite a lot, because after living ten years together, you can accurately understand your feelings in relation to your spouse, because the celebration of this anniversary should be as loud and bright as possible, with an abundance of chic gifts.

1 year

Those families who live in marriage for the first year can experience many different emotions and conditions during this time. Not all met for a long time before marriage, not everyone had the opportunity to live together, because the storm of passions will not settle for a long time, but this does not give a reason to postpone the celebration of this date or neglect it, quite the opposite. On the first anniversary of life together, a husband and wife can please each other with such gifts as:

  • a beautiful bed set that will be equally pleasant to both husband and wife;
  • tablecloths, aprons and napkins from a husband for a wife who loves to follow folk traditions;
  • calico decorative pillows that will make the interior of a young married couple even better and warmer.

During the first year, the husband and his wife learn a lot about each other and can already invent gifts regarding the hobbies of the second half:

  • athlete spouse or spouse, you can buy sneakers or a uniform of your favorite sports company;
  • music lover should give a selection of your favorite or the newest songs, decorated with love;
  • the amateur photographer will love the new lens or the specialized parts for creating photo effects.

If you did not manage to find the best gift, then candlelight dinner with beautiful music will always be relevant.

5 years

After five years of marriage, the spouses already have their family habits and attitudes, often the family already has children and all household issues are fully established. In this case, the celebration of the anniversary becomes no less important, as it is possible to sum up a certain result and determine the course of a family vessel’s voyage for the next 10 years. Since 5 years of marriage together are called wooden wedding, the most favorable gifts can be considered such as:

  • small wooden products of the type of chests, boxes and small containers of various shapes, which will be equally pleasant to both husband and wife;
  • tree decorations, presented to spouses as a traditional anniversary gift, symbolizing the harmony in the family;
  • furniture made of natural wood or chipboard, which will be in addition to the interior of the house, which has long been everything you need.

If you want to make gifts of a personal nature, it is worth moving a little away from tradition, and focus on what a husband or wife loves:

  • for the wife, who in her free time is engaged in flowers, it is worth giving some rare and beautiful look, which will take an honorable place in her collection;
  • for a husband who is fond of modeling tanks, cars or airplanes, you can buy the model that he lacks in the collection;
  • for a family of athletes who are actively ill for a particular team in some kind of sport, you can donate tickets to a sporting event.

Whatever gift is chosen, it will hit the target exactly, because after five years of marriage together, the spouses know everything about each other and can easily find something that will please the second half.

10 years

The tenth anniversary of the wedding day is a very serious anniversary, which is popularly referred to as a tin or a pink wedding. Those spouses who have lived together for 10 years, can afford to throw a real feast, inviting all relatives and close friends, who have accumulated a lot during this time. Preparation for such an event should be thorough, as well as the selection of gifts. Based on tradition, you can choose these gifts:

  • tin cutlery, which will be the names of the husband and wife;
  • if you want to remember a significant date for a long time, you can order a tin trinket as a gift, where there will be a festive inscription from one spouse to another;
  • my wife will be very pleased to receive a huge bouquet of roses, preferably red, which symbolize love and passion;
  • If you want to give a gift to spouses from friends, then a bed set with red roses will be a good option.

Such a round date gives reason not to doubt that the family reigns in harmony, order and comfort, and therefore the big holiday was arranged not in vain. To maintain the level of love and passion, a husband and wife simply have to celebrate their anniversaries, annually recalling the happiest moment when they joined their hearts forever, becoming a family.

Mature alliances

When a couple lives together for more than ten years, their family often grows, because children appear.Each new wedding anniversary is celebrated in the new line-up, and after some time, the children will already make mom and dad gifts, which will certainly be very nice. Husband and wife, having gone so long a journey together, have a large store of knowledge about each other, and therefore it is not so difficult to invent original and interesting gifts for each other.

It may not be so easy for friends of the family to choose a good gift, which means there is a reason to recall traditions and choose something in accordance with them.

15 years

When the couple is preparing to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of their life together, she plans a big enough holiday, to which family members and closest friends are invited. Husband, wife and all guests must choose the right presents, which will be presented at the event. The most suitable for such a case would be:

  • jewelry donated by the husband to the wife;
  • crystal vase from friends;
  • glass set from relatives;
  • glass frame with a photo of parents from children.

All of the above is associated with the traditions, according to which on this anniversary it is worth giving crystal or glass. But you can move away from it, giving the family what is the need.

20 years

After 20 years of family life, the union between the spouses has become quite strong, which means that the holiday should be very noisy and fun. Every year the number of guests will only increase, because children grow up, get married, give birth to children. A good holiday is not complete without an organized program, tasty treats and gifts. For 20 years of married life you can give:

  • dishes made of porcelain, which will show off in a glass cabinet;
  • tea porcelain set as a symbol of a happy family life;
  • All kinds of porcelain, both purchased and made by hand.

Any gift will be valuable and pleasant, especially if he was chosen from the heart and especially for the anniversary.

30 years

Husband and wife, who have lived together for 30 years, deserve to celebrate the pearl wedding, rolling a good feast. A noisy event can be organized as a gift for children, and a pleasant surprise can be made by grandchildren who can tell a little verse, sleep or dance. Of the main gifts that are usually given for such a serious anniversary, we can single out the following:

  • dishes of pearl color: white, black, mother-of-pearl;
  • souvenirs that are specially made with pearls for couples;
  • wife will be pleased to get pearl jewelry;
  • as a souvenir you can make a photo frame decorated with pearls, where to place a photo collage of the whole family of spouses.

There are many options for surprises and gifts, because the spouses have been together for a long time together and their tastes and needs are known to their close surroundings.

The strongest pair

Those who have lived together for more than 25 years can consider themselves truly happy people, because their marriage has endured much, and despite all the problems and hardships, the husband and wife remained faithful to each other, creating a large and friendly family. To celebrate anniversaries, not only children, but also grandchildren will work on the selection of gifts. They can present to the grandparents something hand-made.

Such a serious date should be marked with increased pathos, and therefore the flowers from each guest will become a mandatory attribute.

40 years

Not everyone can live together for 40 years and still be truly happy. Those who received this honor should be justly rewarded with a beautiful holiday in their honor. Usually the family by this time becomes very large, but no less friendly, which means that the holiday will be held in a warm and cozy atmosphere. The forty-year anniversary is called a ruby ​​wedding. Traditional gifts to it are:

  • any beautiful things and objects of red color that can be given by friends and relatives;
  • beautiful boxes decorated with ruby ​​stones will be a chic gift from relatives;
  • You can choose unusual or antique clocks for spouses;
  • the wife will appreciate the ruby ​​jewelry that her husband will present to her.

Although the ruby ​​will be the main stone at the festival, it is not necessary to subordinate to it the style of the celebration or all the gifts, the main thing is to be guided by the tastes of the husband and the wife in order to please them as much as possible.

50 years

Husband and wife, who lived together for so long, managed to visit various roles - initially newlyweds, then parents, after a long time grandparents, well, now it's time for great-grandchildren. Not so many couples can be counted, who live together to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the wedding, but such cases still happen. The most successful gifts for the golden wedding will be:

  • gifts in gilding - boxes, dishes, trays;
  • jewelry for husband and wife;
  • the gift of one spouse for another in the form of a favorite jewelry made of gold.

    Since the holiday is very special, then the gift should not be saved. There should be a lot of relatives and guests at the event, which means that there is an opportunity to realize some kind of dream of the couple, to do for them what they have long dreamed of. It may be:

    • family photo session;
    • a trip to Europe;
    • buying a car;
    • purchase of a country house.

    If you start preparing for the celebration of the anniversary in advance, you can choose the most interesting and unusual options that will delight the spouses in their fiftieth wedding anniversary.

    What can you do with your own hands?

    Sometimes it happens that there is no time or finances to prepare a beautiful or expensive gift, but this is not a reason to be upset. There are some surprises that look much better, made personally, than bought in a store. To please the spouses for any anniversary can be such options:

    • handmade soap, which will be an excellent option for both husband and wife, because the components, colors and fragrances can be selected individually;
    • photo of spouses, embroidered by hand on the fabric and inserted into the frame;
    • photo-collage of photographs of different years, placed in a frame, decorated by hand;
    • a quilt sewn from a variety of different fabrics, joined together as a symbol of years lived together by a couple;
    • wine glasses with a pattern and individual decor, which is appropriate to give for any anniversary;
    • knitted gifts that are more suitable spouses elderly years.

    A hand-made gift is sometimes much better than a purchased one, and it is definitely valued higher, because the soul and the love of the creator are invested in it, which is very pleasant for any person.

    What is better not to give?

    Gifts, which can and should be given, have been invented a whole lot, but to buy or present something that will be appropriate, it is important to know about those options that are undesirable. Those will be:

    1. money in the event that:
      • husband and wife are much older than those who present a gift;
      • spouses are much younger than donors;
      • the couple is very rich;
      • spouses are not familiar with donors.
    2. spoons and knives will be superfluous, because they are considered to be forerunners of quarrels and discord;
    3. wrist or wall clocks, which may portend the separation of the couple (an exception may be the choice of such a gift at the request of the family or in the case of making the product to order);
    4. fear is worth the mirrors, which can cause too early age or bring home the disease;
    5. All sorts of linen shawls will also not be very appropriate, as they may become harbingers of tears, quarrels and parting
    6. You can please the spouses with vivid impressions, but in some cases this gift will be undesirable, it is:
      • the conservatism and practicality of the husband and his wife in certain matters that the donor wants to change;
      • constrained budget spouses who will have to spend money to get those most cherished impressions;
      • poor knowledge of the tastes of the couple, when the gift can not please them or even offend.

      Whichever wedding anniversary a gift is chosen, you need to explore all possible options, exclude everything that is superfluous and unsuitable and leave only those gifts that will be pleasant for spouses, emotional and reminiscent of a special date that will be celebrated.

      The knowledge of what is not worth giving is just as important as a good choice of surprise, which will be truly enjoyable and will remind you for many years of the holiday date and who pleased the husband and wife on their special day.
