Over many years of marriage, it becomes clear that the words that you need to find your soulmate in order to live a happy life are true. Having lived together for many years, the married couple was able to convince themselves of the strength of their love and withstand all the tests sent by fate. And if 35 years of life together are left behind, then this is a reason to celebrate this event. Not everyone can live so many years and not lose their feelings.
You can invite adult children and best friends to the holiday to have fun with them and remember the past. 35 years of marriage is a wedding anniversary, which has two names: one is a coral wedding, the other is a linen wedding. Let's find out in more detail what a coral (linen) wedding should be like, how to celebrate this event and what to give.
Symbols of 35 wedding years
The main symbol of the holiday is coral. It is enough to look at this miracle of nature to understand why it was made a symbol. Coral has many branches that have grown together and become one.
It grows in difficult conditions of the sea day, where difficulties await it at every step, but despite this it turns into a beautiful tree. The couple lived together for many days and became one for each other. Every day of their lives brought something good and sometimes something bad. As a result, a unique pattern was formed, and the marriage bonds became strong.
The wedding was also given another name - linen. The canvas is made from flax, which gives it strength and wear resistance. This is exactly what the spouses’ life together and their feelings have become over many years of their lives.
In European countries, the thirty-fifth wedding anniversary is celebrated under the sign of jade. Jade stone is quite durable and has an attractive appearance. It carries the energy of wealth, which is why it was chosen as a symbol.
The husband gives the gift first
On this day, let the husband wake up his beloved with a kiss and present her with a bouquet. According to tradition, it should be roses: the queen of flowers for the queen of hearts! The unspoken rule speaks of a bouquet of 11 flowers: one scarlet rose for each year spent in love, and one white rose as a sign of the purity of future intentions.
A gift for your wife for 11 years of marriage can be presented in both tin and “pink” styles.
Tin gifts for the wife
Jewelry made from an alloy with tin: this metal is hypoallergenic, does not harm the body, and is one of the purest metals. Tin jewelry is not afraid of water, they do not rust, so they can be worn without taking them off. There is a wide choice: jewelry designers often use tin to create beautiful exclusive earrings, bracelets, pendants, medallions, and rings. In many cultures, tin figurines were considered the residence of the guardian spirits of the hearth. Your wife will also love this amulet. A figurine can be not only a talisman, but also simply an original decoration for a shelf in the bedroom: tin allows you to give the figurine sophistication and filigree. Tin figurine is a totem animal. This is a beautiful gift - an almost magical symbol. Maybe your wife looks like a cute cat or lioness? Perhaps a flying bird figurine suits her better? Or a tremulous doe? Mirror in tin frame
Pewter lends itself well to engraving, and your wife may have an exquisite piece on her dressing table or handbag that she will always remember your attention and originality. A tin tray can also be beautifully engraved: a pattern, the name of a loved one, memorable words of congratulations. Tin wall panel with a romantic image. Vase: the wife can immediately place the presented bouquet in it. A coffee pot made of practical metal that does not accumulate odors will help you celebrate mornings together more joyfully.
Gifts for wife in “pink” style
This anniversary theme is more suitable for women. Remind her of romance by giving her gifts in pink, as well as in the form of this wonderful flower - a symbol of passion. Sprinkle the bed with rose petals, add them to your bath water, treat yourself to rose petal jam - and your wife will remember her tenth wedding anniversary with admiration for the next ten years, at least.
What else can you give so pink?
- No woman can resist jewelry. If you have not found a tin alloy, it is much easier to find a ring, medallion, bracelet with a pink stone (ruby, amethyst, sapphire, agate, jasper).
- A wedding gem - a decoration carved on stone - would be a wonderful gift. Choose a pink stone: carnelian, quartz, spinel. A cameo (convex image) or intaglio (depressed) can depict a zodiac sign, the goddess of love Aphrodite, or be a custom-made portrait of your loved one.
- Pink soft toy. Some women continue to love these cute symbols of affection. If your wife is young at heart and romantic, you can give her a huge pink hare, a bear cub, or a flamingo. Perhaps your daughter will also appreciate this gift!
- The amulet is a “tree of happiness” made from semi-precious pink stones.
- A rosewood box, possibly inlaid with tin elements, amber, and pink stones.
- Comet or shampoo with rose oil or just pink shades.
- A smart new umbrella.
- A large beach pareo for a shared summer holiday.
- Glamorous gadgets in pink: a mobile phone or a case for it, a flash drive, a computer mouse, etc.
- If you can find household appliances in pink, your wife will be delighted with both the originality and the benefits of a pink kettle, iron, vacuum cleaner, toaster, and alarm clock.
- Candies or cakes in a big pink box: sweets are always a win-win option.
35th wedding anniversary traditions
Over many years of celebrating a coral wedding, certain traditions have developed among the people.
- The spouses must find a body of water, stand next to it, hold hands and say the words of the oath of fidelity to each other. Then they can go boating, and during the walk they can talk about all their experiences and fears. After this, you need to soak your hands in water so that it washes away all the troubles that bother you. It is believed that after this there will be no omissions left between the spouses.
- If possible, then you need to go on a trip and do the following ritual. The husband and wife should get up at sunrise and go to any nearby body of water. You need to take a red scarf with you, which you will need to throw into the water. It is believed that all troubles float away with the scarf. After this, you can thank nature for all the wonderful moments that were lived together.
- There is a popular tradition according to which, before the 35th anniversary, a husband and wife must go to sleep in another house. At the same time, they must take one thing that is dear to them. This ritual helps to test strength.
- During the celebration, the heroes of the occasion can exchange rings as at their wedding many years ago. If your wedding rings have become small, you can buy new ones.
Each married couple decides whether or not to follow traditions. The main thing is to have fun, and in order to do this, you need to organize a holiday party in honor of this event.
Unusual gifts
Gifts made by children
During the holiday, it is good to organize staged sketches. If there are children in the house, they should be entrusted with singing songs, poems, or dedicated to the hero of the occasion. Instead, you can make a short sketch of your favorite piece. You can also entrust children with making crafts and cards for their grandparents’ anniversary. This will definitely touch the heroes of the occasion and make their eyes water. However, if none of the household members have creative abilities, parents receive theater tickets to one of the famous performances or to a ballet as a gift.
For a cheerful couple, it is worth preparing a prank or a costume show with family and friends. After all, you can donate money at Christmas, but you have to do it in a special way. For example, donate the amount in a woven bag with sailor stripes. Or on such a day give a “treasure chest” containing coins and banknotes from different countries.
How to celebrate a linen wedding
At a wedding anniversary party, there should be red and orange shades, since coral has exactly this color. Spouses can wear clothes with coral colors. Room decorations, napkins, gift wrapping, and accessories are also chosen in coral color. In accordance with the second symbol, the festive table is covered with a linen tablecloth. Clothes for spouses can be made from linen.
Another tradition to celebrate a wedding day is to go on a trip together. However, this will not stop you from getting together with the whole family and celebrating the anniversary first.
The best idea is to visit a country where there is a sea with corals. There are many such countries where you can buy souvenirs made from coral.
What to give for a linen wedding
It is expected that items made of coral or linen items are given as gifts for 35th wedding anniversary. But it is quite possible to deviate from generally accepted standards and give other wedding gifts. For example, a coral wedding is a great occasion for a husband to give jewelry to his wife with or without coral. It is best to present gifts for your 35th wedding anniversary in a linen bag.
A bouquet of flowers will decorate the holiday and lift your spirits. It doesn’t matter what kind of flowers they are, the main thing is that they are your favorite ones. The bouquet must contain 35 flowers.
A wife can sew a linen shirt for her husband or call a ready-made one and embroider some design on it. But if you have no desire for handicrafts, then it is better to buy a ready-made product - for example, a light linen jacket or a summer suit.
Not all men will be delighted with trinkets, so you need to think carefully about what to give for your wedding. And this must be what he really needs. A man will appreciate new gadgets or fishing gear better than jewelry. But in order not to deviate from the theme of the holiday, the gift can be packed in a linen bag or wrapped in coral-colored paper.
It is better to give practical gifts to friends and relatives for a linen wedding. Linen bed linen and linen tablecloth will last a long time, because this material is quite durable. Linen curtains will decorate the room, provide good protection from sunlight, and create a good mood. But if you are not sure about the preferences of the spouses, then it is better to give them beautiful table linen, which will always come in handy.
A set of towels, aprons, and oven mitts will always be needed in the kitchen. You can also present terry towels for spouses. Any practical thing that is useful in the house is suitable for a gift. This could be a tea set or tableware, household appliances and other things. Guests can even team up to purchase a gift they really need.
But if you don’t want to be banal, then give them an adventure gift, such as a ticket to an exhibition, cinema, theater, etc. If the spouses are creative people, then you can give them a beautiful picture with the sea, corals and other things painted.
Children of spouses should think about the gift more carefully to ensure that their gift is memorable. Making a video using family photos and videos is a great idea. Such a gift will be the best reminder of this anniversary.
Parents can organize a great vacation by buying them a tour to another country or a trip to a sanatorium. The grandchildren of a married couple can also prepare gifts, for example, draw a wall newspaper or make a postcard using the scarpbooking technique. You can also organize a home concert where all guests will participate.
Tips for decorating a room and setting tables
To create the perfect vacation, you need to consider not only options and images. It is important to pay attention to details such as table setting and menu design. The main dish and main character of the evening will be the wedding cake. In addition, this is considered an unforgettable end to the wedding event. When ordering a cake, it is important to calculate that there is enough for all guests. Sweets made in tiers will add luxury to the celebration. The top of the cake can be decorated with the number 35 with fondant or with edible miniature figures of the newlyweds.
When looking closely at the menu, you should pay attention to the theme of the celebration, as well as the color of the table. The 35th wedding anniversary is an occasion to fill the atmosphere with romance with the help of various details. Red fruits and vegetables will come in handy at the celebration. Seafood is also appropriate on the table, but it is important to warn guests about its presence. Since some people have dishes as a strong allergen.
Congratulations on a linen wedding
It’s impossible to do without congratulations on a holiday. Guests and friends choose beautiful words, compose poems and toasts to express their love to their spouse. Congratulations can be original and funny. Wishes can be written on a postcard or on canvas. Sometimes it can be difficult to find the words, but don't worry. Take ready-made ones that match the theme of the holiday and the spouses will be happy!
