For 8 years in marriage, spouses achieve maximum intimacy, unity of souls and thoughts. Many dreams have already come true, many plans are planned in advance. Many married couples have already got one or even two children. It's time to think about updating the relationship.

For the eighth anniversary, it is important to prepare in advance, thinking over the gifts and the method of the celebration. So that everything goes unforgettably, it is important to know what kind of wedding to be celebrated. After all, every year in marriage has long had its own special name.

What is the name of this anniversary?

Folk beliefs endow the 8th anniversary of the wedding with the power of tin, so she is called Tin. Tin - a symbol of the strength of relationships, a hint that the couple have become a single alloy and can not be afraid of life's troubles. Everything can be overcome together if there is a reliable and understanding person nearby. And let the tin does not have a high value as a metal, but it is more practical and much more enduring than precious gold and too malleable silver. And the tin surface shines no worse.

The second name of the eighth wedding - Poppy. The scarlet flower symbolizes fervent feelings and frankness. This is something worth striving for all 8 years of marriage and beyond. But poppies do not bloom for long, so it’s worth trying so that the emotions and feelings in the relationship do not wilt, like flowers.

Some nations call eight years of marriage in a clay wedding, with the promise that this building material strengthens the foundation of the family. Over the long years of family life, a home has usually already been built and the foundations of the family structure have been laid. Therefore, a comparison with clay is appropriate and understandable here.

But the creative British name this anniversary salty. They explain this by the fact that for eight years the spouses manage to eat for two the notorious pood of salt, overcoming a lot of life difficulties.

Customs and traditions

This significant date has its own traditions that have developed over the centuries. The wife accepted to bake poppy pies with poppy seeds on the day of the wedding and treat the guests. In the summer, the house is decorated with bouquets of scarlet wildflowers. The table is covered with a festive tablecloth and pottery.

According to old beliefs, over the threshold it was necessary to expose a large bucket of tin, to the top filled with alcohol. Near put a tin mug and a ladle. Any passerby could drink for the happiness of the spouses, and after leaving the coin in the circle, wanting them to live a long life in prosperity and well-being.

Previously, women wore tin-plate beads or similar jewelry made of this metal on the 8th anniversary. Often on the plates were applied patterns of various symbols of a successful marriage.

On the eve of the anniversary, the couple left a tin sheet at the stable. If the horse left a hoof mark on it at night, it was perceived as a good sign. The happy plate was carefully preserved for many years of marriage.

Of course, nowadays rarely anyone can afford to keep his own stable, especially in the city. And the tradition with a bucket of alcohol will be supported only in rural areas. In the city hall there is a risk of losing alcohol and all tin containers at once, not to mention money.

But the spouses continue to decorate the house with red poppies, bake pies with poppy filling and put on tin ornaments. Modern housewives serve the table with plates with the image of poppies or red dishes, lay out napkins with the image of these wild flowers.Some heroes of the occasion decorate hairstyles with wreaths of artificial poppies. Clothes with their image also looks good in celebration. Bright flowers on a white background look spectacular and solemn.

It was not for nothing that women earlier on the eight-year anniversary preferred to wear dresses of fabric with a scattering of poppies or large flowers on the hem. The spouse decorated the poppy with a buttonhole or arranged the flower on the headdress. The celebration was symbolic and colorful.

Presents

It is customary to exchange gifts on any anniversaries where people honor family values ​​and respect each other. All close relatives usually congratulate the couple, regardless of whether they have received an invitation to the celebration. Relatives prepare gifts in advance, they try to please the couple. Most often, they give dishes and decor items, packing gifts in a brilliant packaging that imitates the color of tin. All gifts should be designed for family use, and not separately by one of the spouses.

If the wedding anniversary is to be with friends, funny souvenirs and unusual things will be appropriate as a present. such as amulets of passion in the bedroom, family albums handmade, flashlights from the tin of unusual design, films about the life of the couple before marriage and during the period of living together, collages with cartoons of the spouses. Young people are presented with funny aprons, a rolling-pin with the inscription “to the wife” (so that she watches her husband's loyalty), binoculars for the faithful (so that he does not lose sight of her beloved).

Fantasy can tell anything, but it is better to present gifts with thoughtful text. These can be lyrical poems of serious content or sonnets with a playful promise.
