Wedding anniversaries by year - features of the celebration
Table 1: Wedding anniversaries and their names by year
| Year | Wedding anniversary name | Peculiarities |
| Marriage Day | Green * | It is called that because the family is still immature, so to speak “green”. The young people still have a lot to go through, and the main thing is to create strong bonds of marriage and live for many, many years. Flowers are the symbol of a wedding, which is why they decorate the wedding venue and subsequent celebration. Flowers should also be included in the bride's bouquet and boutonnieres. |
| 1 year | Calico | Another name is gauze. And this came from the nature of married life in the first year. In fact, in the first year of marriage, the spouses began to get to know each other better, and their family connection was more like a thin fabric, like chintz. Another definition of the name speaks of the too active intimate life of a young couple, which leads to the thinning of cotton linen to the state of gauze. On the first anniversary, you should drink light alcohol: wine, liqueurs, and you should drink champagne left after the wedding. It's better to celebrate outdoors. |
| 2 year | Paper | Paper is also a fragile object, which is why the second year of marriage got its name. Only by being together do spouses create a strong union; it is advisable to have offspring by this time, which will further strengthen the family. It's better to celebrate outdoors. |
| 3 year | Leather | The symbol of the anniversary is leather; it is already a more durable material. Marital relationships at this stage became stronger and more durable. It's better to celebrate outdoors. |
| 4 year | Linen | Another name is rope or wax. It’s not for nothing that flax has become a symbol of four years of family life. It symbolizes wealth, purity, and strength of family ties. You can celebrate your anniversary however you like. Linen is a durable material. After all, the couple lived together for 4 years, they learned to listen and hear each other, which means they are ready to continue their journey hand in hand. If an anniversary is being celebrated, then there must be a linen tablecloth and candles on the table. In the old days, it was believed that on the fourth wedding anniversary, you need to weave a rope from flax and tie the hands of the spouses with it. If they get out, then the marriage will be long and happy. |
| 5 year | Wooden | The first round anniversary of the family. Wood is a durable material, which means that relationships have acquired their steadfastness and strength. By this time, the couple probably had a child, and perhaps already have their own home. There is such a sign that on the fifth anniversary of the family, a husband and wife must plant a tree. This will become a memory for their descendants, and will also “root” the union. |
| 6 years | Cast iron | This material becomes the first, durable, metal symbol of family ties. Many years of living together mean that the relationship has some weight, it is important to you. But this does not mean that relationships can be left to chance; if you drop a cast iron product, it will break, and so will relationships. Any misunderstanding, understatement and troubles can destroy a marriage. And a good attitude, love and respect will strengthen it. A cast iron wedding also symbolizes a strong home. |
| 6.5 years | Zinc | No matter how many holidays there are, they will always commemorate something. And the day when a new family was born has special significance for the spouses. It would seem that this is not such a holiday, but you can do something nice for yourself on such a day. This small holiday speaks of relationships as pure as zinc. A short vacation is arranged at home, with your closest relatives, or just to be alone. |
| 7 years | Copper | Each anniversary is marked with certain symbolism. And this is all for a reason, the symbol speaks of the stage of building a family, the relationship between spouses. Seven years are marked by a durable and valuable material – copper. This suggests that spouses are of incomparable value to each other. The most important goal of the spouses for the future is to bring their relationship to a silver and golden wedding, that is, to make the relationship even more precious and stronger. |
| 8 years | Tin | Your life together is 8 years, which is already a long time, but not so much that you forget about each other. This period of time allowed each other to get used to everyone's interests. Relationships at this stage enter a new direction. Family relationships at this stage are completely normalized, filled with warmth and understanding. |
| 9 years | Earthenware | The concept of faience means a strong union. This means your relationship has become even more connected and strong. This material is not strong, so for the strength of family relationships you need to express all complaints to each other. Another symbol of the family’s ninth anniversary is chamomile, a homemade, summer and pure flower that blooms only in the warm season. This is a great symbol for family life, which also blossoms when you give each other warmth. Do not forget that a family is built on the brightest and warmest feelings. |
| 10 years | Tin | In another way, this anniversary is celebrated as pink. Tin is a flexible material that is very suitable for family relationships, for strength, which need to be adjusted to the interests of the partner. But a rose means passion and love, which has been preserved for so long and has not yet faded away. This day should be celebrated on a grand scale. |
| 11 years | Steel | Steel is a strong and durable material, which means family relationships should correspond to it. The married couple has already overcome the difficulties of the first years of marriage, now the spouses have become closer, closer and closer. This event is usually celebrated with family. Having overcome a journey of eleven years, the couple proved that their marriage is strong, resilient, as if like steel. |
| 12 years or (12.5 years) | Nickel | Sometimes this date is commemorated with silk. Nickel means that the family life of a married couple has become stable, most likely they have their own home, a child, and even several. The family has already gone through many trials, but it remains like nickel, shiny, durable and strong. |
| 13 years | Lace | The symbol of the wedding is the lily of the valley and lace. Both symbols are very gentle and reverent, exactly what should be present in both spouses. Lily of the valley indicates devotion and purity of marriage. Lace is characterized by sophistication, tenderness and beautiful appearance. The same can be said about the close connection between the spouses; it is like lace, just as tender and skillfully chiseled by both creators of the family. Despite the fact that the number "13" is unlucky, it has no significance for celebrating a wedding anniversary. |
| 14 years | Agate | The symbolism here is agate, a hard and durable stone. It signifies longevity and health of husband and wife. On this significant date, the “young” must again confess their love for each other, and also talk about their innermost dreams and secrets. Agate is called upon to protect the family way of life. This day is usually celebrated in nature. |
| 15 years | Khrustalnaya | Despite the fragility of crystal, this anniversary speaks of the strength of family ties, great love and mutual understanding between husband and wife. This date shows the purity of family relationships and the happiness of two loving hearts. There must be crystal at the holiday as the main symbol of the anniversary. At the celebration, husband and wife should exchange crystal glasses. Guests will be required to break a plate, glass or something else made of glass. |
| 16 years* | —— | —— |
| 17 years* | —— | —— |
| 18 years | Turquoise | A beautiful and strong stone, which has not in vain become a symbol of the 18th wedding anniversary. All passions, quarrels and grievances have passed, there is only a bright future ahead, there are fewer everyday problems. Turquoise symbolizes peace and happiness. By this time, your relationship will sparkle with a new, turquoise color. |
| 19 years | Pomegranate | Pomegranate is a red fruit and in the nineteen-year life of spouses, it represents love, sincerity in marital relationships, and respect for each other. |

| 24 years | Satin | Satin is a light fabric, which means the relationship should be the same. Having lived together for so many years, the spouses already understand each other perfectly. You already have everything, the children have grown up, life is settled, all that remains is to live and enjoy every minute with your loved one. |
| 25 years | Silver | This is already a big and significant day. Silver is one of the most expensive materials, which speaks of a long journey and the strength of marital ties.

Wooden wedding: celebration traditions
Many people ask the question: 5 years of marriage - what kind of wedding? But this is the first anniversary in the lives of the newlyweds, which is called a wooden wedding! The holiday has its own traditions and customs, which you can take into account and follow if you wish.

The first to celebrate the five-year mark of family life were married couples in Southern Germany back in the Middle Ages. All relatives and friends who had helped take care of the family for 5 years and were always there were invited to this celebration. During the celebration, the house was decorated with wooden figures, fir branches, and the festive table was set.

According to tradition, a married couple celebrating their 5th wedding anniversary should plant a tree together. As a rule, a fruit tree is chosen as a seedling, which will begin to bear fruit by the time the children grow up and become stronger, perhaps even by the time grandchildren appear. Such trees are considered a symbol of fertility and procreation.
To plant a tree, select and buy a seedling, plant it on your summer cottage or in the front garden under the windows of a city apartment. The main thing is to remember to take care of your tree so that it grows and gets stronger, just like your love.
In addition to the fruit tree, it is a good idea to choose another tree, the planting of which has its own meaning:
- By planting an acacia or oak, you will ensure family loyalty and longevity.
- By choosing birch, enrich your family with tenderness and add romance to your relationship.
- Maple will give a married couple financial stability.
But do not forget that these are beliefs, and not a panacea for all problems.
