What a wedding after 10 years of marriage
Every wedding anniversary has its own name and means something. A decade is a period during which the spouses have already gotten used to each other, endured many quarrels and lived wonderful moments. Because of this, the wedding is called tin or pink.
Symbolism (meaning)
Tin is a soft and durable metal that is easy to melt down. A tin wedding means that the spouses have learned to adapt to each other, find compromises, and their relationship has become stronger.
Pink from the word rose - the passion has not faded, it has only become quieter. The husband and wife tried the thorns of the flower - mistakes and quarrels.
Traditions
Each family's traditions are different, but there are those that have been followed for many decades and brought good luck to the house.
Bouquet of roses
In Russia, there is a tradition that a husband gives his wife a bouquet of 11 roses for a pink wedding: 10 red ones as a declaration of love for those 10 years together, and 1 white one as hope for a future together.
Wreath
If the wedding is in the summer months, then the woman should weave a wreath of roses of any delicate color, asking each flower for protection from evil spirits. On the wedding day, a wreath was hung on the front door. When the roses wither, it is removed and stored until the next anniversary of 11 years of marriage.
tin spoon
In ancient Rus' there was a custom: on the day of the tenth wedding anniversary, the husband walked around all day with a tin spoon in his trouser pocket. After sunset, the spoon should be placed under the wife's pillow at night. With this ritual, the spouses protected the family from evil spirits.
Tin rings
Husband and wife, like 10 years ago, exchange rings. Only in tin, on the back of which you can engrave with the names of lovers or a memorable date. Tin says that the union is based on pure love, and not jewelry and money.
Culinary masterpieces
The woman prepared dishes for the festive table according to the recipe of her mother or grandmother. Such dishes should convey the wisdom of generations to the spouses and preserve their marriage for many more decades.
Walk
One of the romantic anniversary traditions is a joint walk of the celebrants to the place of their first meeting. While walking, they remember the feelings burning in their souls, and this adds passion and tenderness for the next decade of life together.
Bed of roses
On the night of the celebration, it is customary to strew the bed with red rose petals. This will return passion to the newlyweds and give them the feeling of starting something new and beautiful.
Rituals
The first ten days is an important anniversary for the family. This is no longer 5 years that were a test of the relationship, but an established unit of society that will last until the end of days. It is important not only to continue to love each other, but also to strengthen the relationship to overcome future adversities.
- A ritual for a long life together. Close relatives buy scarlet and red satin ribbons. During the celebration, the ribbons are tied together, the husband and wife are seated with their backs to each other and entangled in the ribbon. Relatives ask each spouse questions about their partner’s appearance (eyes, moles, etc.). If all the answers are correct, then such a marriage will last, and the partners will remain attentive and caring to each other.
- A ritual to strengthen relationships and well-being. If 5 years ago the couple planted a tree for a wooden wedding, then for 10 years they tie delicate colored ribbons on it.
“I would like such a husband”: a friend constantly notes your husband, is it time to worry that he will try to take him away?
Is it worth celebrating?
Many people choose not to celebrate wedding anniversaries, believing that it is a waste of time and money. In addition, in the daily bustle it is not always possible to find time to organize a celebration.
However, psychologists strongly recommend not to give up on the anniversary. After all, a holiday can mark the transition of your family life to a new level. If you do not carry out the appropriate rituals, nothing new may happen.
But if you decide to celebrate a tin wedding, then in your subconscious there will be a firm conviction that your family can handle any challenge. In addition, the holiday will be an excellent occasion to take stock of the first decade of marriage and decide what you want in the future. Maybe you will set new goals for yourself, for example, buy a new, more spacious apartment, have another child, or even move to another country? By the way, you can list your expectations in the letter. Seal it in an envelope and solemnly promise each other that you will open it 10 years later when you celebrate your porcelain wedding.
If you decide to celebrate this day on a grand scale, have a pink wedding
Advice! Traditionally, the tenth anniversary of the wedding is celebrated on a grand scale. You can rent a cafe, order pink invitations, and even hire the services of a photographer! After all, it will be very interesting to compare pictures from your wedding and photographs in which you will be captured as an experienced spouse! You can make interesting collages or even create an entire photo album or photo book.
Features of the 10th Anniversary Celebration
What the couple will regret in the future is saving money on their anniversary celebrations. It's the family's birthday. It doesn't have to be a huge expense, but you will have to invest a little money.
Choosing an event venue
Where to celebrate 10 years of marriage is up to the spouses to choose. This could be the same restaurant or place where the wedding took place. Celebrating outdoors or at home will be more profitable. Regardless of the location, the anniversary should be remembered by everyone - both spouses and guests.
Making a guest list
First of all, you should invite relatives. Then they call the witnesses, and also accurately remember the list of guests from the wedding. It would be bad form not to invite those who were at the wedding. They are support and support for partners during quarrels. Newly found family friends are invited as a symbol of fresh sensations and development, because from the moment of marriage, acquaintances do not end.
Outfits
Next, take care of the image of the spouses themselves. Their clothes must have pink shades as a symbol of the wedding.
Husband's image
Despite the prejudice that pink is a color for girls, men's suits in this shade look expensive and are suitable for a pink wedding. Choose the color of your suit in light, delicate colors; brightness will be distracting.
Wear a white or beige shirt, a bow tie, a scarf around your neck or a tie - the same color or pink, white with black polka dots, light gray, gray with white stripes.
Shoes and belt choose the same color. A real leather belt will make your husband look statuesque. In the color scheme, preference is given to gray and pink colors.
A wristwatch with a light-colored strap and dial looks good. Don't forget about the small boutonniere. The flowers are used real (several duplicates are prepared, as they can become frayed) or woven from satin ribbons. Complete the look by choosing cufflinks. Their style depends on the suit, so the choice can be entrusted to a consultant in the store.
If pink color does not suit your husband, then just choose a regular suit of a suitable cut and add pink jewelry to it: a tie, a bow tie, a pocket square, a boutonniere.
Image of a wife
For a woman, a soft pink dress would suit her.
A fluffy dress should be emphasized with a satin ribbon belt of a darker shade with a beautiful bow or decoration. The woman decides for herself whether to wear a veil or not. It is chosen to be the same color as the dress or lighter.
The dress will turn out more interesting if you combine pink with white.
Jewelry is an important part of the look. You shouldn’t add a boutonniere or brooch to a lush dress, but a fitted one without patterns is a field for imagination. When choosing jewelry, remember that it complements the image, and does not draw attention to its large size and diversity. You can add tenderness to the outfit with the help of fingerless gloves: gloveletts (cover the base of the fingers), mitts (cover the palm and wrist), mitts with a loop for one finger. Their color is white or light pink.
Should a wife help with the mortgage payment if the family has a separate budget?
In the rings, leave space only for wedding rings. It is permissible to add a couple of silver, almost invisible rings. For an off-the-shoulder dress, choose a silver or gold chain if there is no boutonniere. The image should remain light and not overloaded.
In makeup, you can give preference to naturalness: light pinkish or brown shadows, long eyelashes, slightly highlighted eyebrows, delicate shades of lipstick. If you want to emphasize your look, black mascara and pencil will help. Green shades of eyeshadow will not work, but you can experiment carefully with light blue.
Long hair curled into curls looks advantageous, especially with a tiara or hairpin when there is no veil. Short hair cannot do without jewelry.
Event organisation
When the images of the spouses are selected, it’s time to think about the holiday. A memorable wedding anniversary will not let anyone get bored, so it’s worth thinking through all the events in advance.
- Hire a toastmaster to free yourself from some of your responsibilities. It is guaranteed to entertain both the newlyweds and guests. It might be worth hiring a photographer, because 10 years together is a significant event.
- Ask relatives to lead the party. You can entrust the fun to the same person who did it at the wedding. Consider a competition program and prizes for participation.
Room decoration
The place of celebration is decorated in light colors with the obligatory presence of pink. It is combined with silver, gold, white and chocolate shades. Add balloons and flowers. Table setting: the color for the tablecloth and napkins is soft scarlet, and the cutlery is traditionally served in pewter. For decoration, vases with fresh roses are placed on the table. Traditionally, the king of drinks is rose or red wine, which is complemented by red fish. A cake is bought or baked similar to the one at the wedding.
Ideas for a summer family photo shoot in nature
On bicycles, rollerblades
Outdoor activities are gaining momentum, so why not use it in your photo shoot? Take a bicycle for each family member and go to country paths or to the park. Needless to say, clothes in this case should be comfortable?
It is not necessary to use modern sports bikes and rollers. If you prefer to shoot in a retro style, then you can take regular old bicycles, dress up in 60's costumes and go on a fun costume family picnic!
With soap bubbles
Nowadays you can buy a wide variety of soap bubbles. There are bottles for small bubbles, and there are bottles for huge soap balls. If you wish, you can even find special machines that independently “make” soap bubbles in huge quantities.
Such a photo session will certainly be memorable for both you and your children, and the photos will turn out bright, colorful and emotional!
With animals
Does your pet have the status of a “family member”? Then don’t hesitate to take it with you to a photo shoot, because otherwise the composition will be incomplete!
You can arrange a bike ride, a picnic or active games on the beach - just think of a specific role for your pet (the dog can run next to you, catch a ball, a cat will need a special carrier).
Very often, family photo sessions are held on horse farms. You don’t have to ride a horse – you can just stand nearby. Well, then have a family picnic! Photos with animals always look more alive and natural - after all, animals don’t know how to pretend.
Picnic
Here you will need a bright blanket (large checks are in fashion now, but if you prefer to show your individuality by choosing a knitted blanket or a blanket with a floral pattern, your photos will in no way be worse), a basket of food (thermos with tea, sandwiches , fruits and vegetables), toys for children.
Choose a place for your picnic that your whole family will enjoy and make sure the surroundings are safe. Behave at ease - as if you had just come to nature to play with the children or take a break from the city noise.
Active games
A healthy glow on the cheeks, a sparkling look, joy, energy, health - all this can be easily preserved in memory if you go to a photo shoot with active games. Choose what you like best: badminton, football, sack races, family relay races, Frisbee.
Don’t set yourself the task of going all out: remember, this is not a fitness workout, this is a family vacation. The main thing here is spiritual harmony, support and joy of loved ones.
On the sea
Oddly enough, photo shoots at the sea are not only about the bright scorching sun, cocktails and hot sand. A family photo shoot on the seaside may not be held during the holiday season. In this case, it is advisable to dress comfortably (keep in mind that there is often a strong cold wind on the coast), and take a “change” with you - the likelihood that you will wet your shoes and clothes is very high.
On the beach
The principle is the same as during a photo shoot at sea - comfortable clothes, a change of clothes, some necessary thematic accessories (bedspread, sunglasses, sun cream, swimming ring for children, etc.).
It is not necessary to be on the shore all the time - if the weather permits, you can swim, swim, or splash with water. If you take your dog with you, play with it.
Hike
A family hike is always fun and exciting! We will need a tent, backpacks, a fire (don’t forget to take care of safety, dig a hole in the ground, and after the photo shoot, carefully extinguish the flame) and enthusiastic models!
Secret forest paths, streams, picturesque meadows - there’s so much you can see on a hike! And during the photo shoot, you will also film it all on your camera!
In field
There are several shooting options here:
Balloons
A balloon is a symbol of freedom and joy. In a photo shoot, you can use balloons of the same color or different colors. Ideally, combine several shades so that they are in harmony with the environment and, of course, with your clothes.
It will be great if there are balloons inflated with helium - in this case you can take several photos “in the jump” - the illusion of flying in a balloon will be created.
The more balls, the brighter the composition will be. It would be great if the balls were of different sizes - from huge ones, one meter in diameter, to very small ones (sausage balls, for example, twisted in the shape of animals or flowers).
Ready-made scripts
When preparing for the “second” wedding, it is difficult to think through everything down to the smallest detail and write scripts, especially when the celebration is held without a professional toastmaster.
- Initially, the spouses meet, invited relatives and friends are already lined up in the corridor and are waiting at the wedding anniversary celebration site. They are holding baskets with rose petals, preferably pink. The host greets the husband and wife, and the guests shower them with rose petals as they walk along the arranged route.
At the end of the corridor, the host invites the “newlyweds” to choose one of three roses together. If they choose a red rose, passion will play in life, pink – tenderness and care, yellow – well-being and romance.
The host leads the couple into the celebration hall and begins to tell the legend about the rose: “They say that to attract new love, they take dried rose petals, grind them into powder, pour them into a glass of red wine and drink them during the waxing moon. Nobody knows whether this is true or a legend. This is not interesting to us, because we see two loving people.” The host wishes the newlyweds a happy life and ends the toast with the exclamation “bitter!” Spouses should kiss for as long as they have lived together.
The toastmaster talks about how much the spouses have overcome together during these 10 years of life under one roof, how they learned to find ways to resolve conflicts, and that the tin wedding is a symbol of these victories. Then he gives the man a tin spoon, which is supposed to protect the family from harm, and the lady - a rose, a symbol of beauty and rebirth. After this, the host invites guests to give gifts to the newlyweds.
Love changes over time or still weakens
The next entertainment the toastmaster announces is a dance competition. It can be for the most unusual dance, a beautiful waltz or something else. The winner is chosen and the newlyweds are awarded the prize.
The toastmaster invites the guests to take their seats and gives the spouses the floor. They announce the lottery, while the presenter approaches everyone and offers to take a ticket. You can write riddles on the tickets, or just poems about the prize that the participant will receive.
Then the presenter announces several competitions:
- "find your love." The husband is blindfolded, several girls are seated in front of him and he needs to find his wife by the knees. Then the wife is also blindfolded and forced to find her husband's shoulders;
- "pink songs" The host divides the guests into two teams, each group must remember and sing as many songs about roses as possible;
- "bananabol". 2 teams are formed: men and women. Each player is tied to a rope with a banana at the end, which is located about 10 cm from the floor. The goal is marked, as in football. Participants need to fill a balloon with a banana. The game continues until the first goal is scored, and the winners take all the bananas of the losing team;
The celebration ends with the couple releasing 10 pink balloons into the sky.
- After meeting the guests and making the first toast, the host invites the spouses to receive gifts from the guests, but under one condition. To receive each gift, spouses need to tell interesting or funny stories from 10 years of marriage.
The presenter organizes first a dance competition, and then other competitions:
- "Alconauts". To liberate the guests, the host invites the men to compete. Each participant is given a half-liter bottle of beer and a glass. The task is to drink beer with a glass as quickly as possible. The winner receives the amount of beer that the participants did not have time to drink, or a prize in the form of a beer mug;
- “I kiss your hand.” The wife is blindfolded and told that now different men will kiss her hand. The interesting thing is that the husband himself must kiss her every time, but try to do it in different ways. A woman needs to understand how her husband was. If the wife did not guess that it was the same person, then the husband is jokingly advised to kiss the lady’s hand more often;
- "Auction". The presenter invites about 4 people who are ready to draw, and gives out a sheet of paper and markers. The task is to paint a picture of the family of the heroes of the day in a limited time. After the art is put up for auction with a starting price of 50-100 rubles. Bidding is held, and the winning artist receives a prize from the couple. You don’t need to pay for the painting, but you don’t need to talk about it in advance either.
- The host invites the spouses to go through the wedding ceremony again. Witnesses ask about mutual consent, the procedure of exchanging rings and painting is carried out, the guests shout “bitterly”.
The toastmaster invites everyone to the table, after a toast and gifts, congratulates the family for what they have already been through and turns on a video presentation with photos or videos of the family. It will be funny to alternate beautiful photos with funny ones. The presenter invites the family to add to their collection of photographs and have a photo session.
Afterwards competitions are held:
- "Blind Man's Bluff." The husband and mother-in-law (or wife) are blindfolded and placed in different corners of the hall. They must find each other by voice (the mother-in-law calls “son-in-law”, he calls “mother-in-law”). At this time, guests interfere with them, get in their way, imitate their voices, and confuse them. If the players cannot find each other within a certain time, then they must dance together. Well suited for large rooms;
- "Kiss". The presenter invites 2 men to participate and asks the women to renew their lipstick. The task of men is to collect as many kisses as possible on their cheeks in a short time. After the end of the competition, the number of lipstick marks on each participant is counted. The winner receives a kiss from any lady or a prize from the spouses in the form of a set of napkins;
- "Darts". The presenter prepares questions about the family under each number that is in the darts. The players throw darts and the presenter asks a question under the number to which the participant was closest (if there has already been a question, the next closest one is taken). The player tries to answer, and the husband and wife answer whether it is correct or not. If yes, the participant receives a prize.

Congratulations on your 10th wedding anniversary
Despite the fact that the host takes the main responsibility in congratulating the 10th wedding anniversary, other guests and the spouses themselves must also say a word. You can do this in prose, but it’s much more pleasant to listen to rhymed lines.
From my wife
The woman thanks her husband for the years they have lived together and wishes them a future and happiness together.

The man thanks his wife for the warmth and love she gave him, wishes to remain as beautiful and hopes for a future together.

From colleagues
Colleagues are not the people who know much about family and spouses, but they should also congratulate the couple on their holiday.
From other relatives

Family gift ideas
Relatives and friends always have a question about a gift, because the date of 10 years is significant and they want something symbolic.
I love a man, but his friends are annoying: how not to make him unhappy (by tearing him away from friends) and yourself (by continuing to tolerate them)
Useful gifts
After so many years under one roof, the family has already reached a certain level of well-being, so it is better to give a useful gift. This could include household appliances that the spouses do not yet have, a set of pink bed linen and other household items.
Emotional
Friends can get together and give the newlyweds a trip or hike. This will diversify the relationship and strengthen the bond. The family will always be grateful for such a gift. However, before this, it is worth consulting with them about the timing of the trip so that the spouses can take a vacation.
Tickets for the quest for two or with children - such entertainment will give the family emotions and mood for the coming weekend.
Fine
Since the wedding is pink, all gifts in this color will be symbolic. You can give a set, a designer vase, a cake for a celebration, paintings.
Tin items will serve as a reminder of the celebration, so feel free to choose figurines, glasses, cutlery and other items made of tin as a gift.
Photo shoot ideas
A whole decade together is worth hiring a professional photographer to capture the moments for an album. You can arrange a photo shoot both in a festive outfit and in some thematic style.
It is popular to indicate the number of years together in a photo: hold a sign with an inscription or lay out an inscription of flowers/photos/stones/balloons. A photo looks good where the spouses are kissing in the background, and the camera is focused on a sign with numbers. Photos taken outdoors in wedding costumes stand out. Add roses to your photo to symbolize your anniversary.
And if the spouses decide to take a photo every anniversary in the same place in the same pose and clothes, then this will be the best idea. This will allow you to see the changes and growth of the family, as well as the thread of love that stretches through the years. You can hold in your hands a frame with a photo of the last anniversary every time. You will get an incredible “photo within a photo”, where the whole story will be collected.
What to choose for 5 years?
On their fifth anniversary, a couple often already has 1-2 children, and therefore it is more difficult for the mother to prepare herself for the celebration. If children will be nearby at this time, the bride should be dressed in such a way that she can easily devote time to the children. At the same time, you can’t take the outfit carelessly, because many friends will judge the couple by its appearance.
We recommend paying attention to the following options:
- Giolas;
- Milasa;
- Mitlen.
Family advice from psychologists
Yes, if the family lasted for such a serious period, then a lot of contradictions and grievances accumulated. It is important to resolve them in time in order to live together happily, and not out of a sense of duty. To maintain tenderness and passion in relationships, psychologists advise:
- Respect and be interested in each other. In the family we are always looking for support, so it is important to provide it. If there are grievances or discontent, it is better to talk about them right away and not save up until the next “explosion”. It is unacceptable to be rude and insult each other, it kills love.
- Learn to spend time alone. Spouses are constantly together, which can cause feelings to dull and cool down. To prevent this from happening, it is important to have a hobby. You have to do something other than your partner. Sometimes it is useful to arrange a short separation. Missing your loved one who was always “nearby” will awaken your feelings.
- Don't compete. Yes, you can organize joint competitions in the morning to see who can brush their teeth the fastest, but you shouldn’t prove your point until you lose your pulse. If your partner does not agree with you on an issue, argue your position calmly, do not try to convince him if he remains his own, and the dispute has nothing to do with your future life.
To save a marriage you need a lot of effort, to save love - even more. Joint celebrations and reviving old feelings will help spouses not to cool down under the pressure of everyday life and problems. 10 years of marriage is a good time, but there are still many pleasant and not so pleasant moments to live ahead.
