What to give her husband for a wooden wedding?

The fifth wedding anniversary is considered an important milestone in family life. During this time, the relationship in a pair becomes especially reliable. It is not for nothing that this date is called wooden and is compared with this material for strength and strong roots.

The tree has long been perceived as a symbol of home comfort and warmth of the family hearth. It is believed that in the five years of existence, a family has roots - traditions, branches - children, it acquires a crown - its own house and structure.

According to one tradition, on this anniversary, a married couple plantes a young tree together. You can do this in a festive atmosphere, leaving the guests in the courtyard, or dig a seedling under the bedroom window without attracting general attention to what is happening. It is important to determine the type of tree, since each has its own meaning:

• oak - longevity and power of vitality;
• maple - family welfare;
• birch - good nature and harmony;
• ash - clairvoyance and spiritual beginning;
• apple tree - parental blessing and fertility;
• acacia - the birth of a new life, renewal;
• alder - a tree that protects family values.

Acacia is often planted by spouses who dream of offspring. According to ancient tradition, like a tree planted on the fifth anniversary of the marriage, take root and outgrow all the winds and hardships, this will be the joint life of the family. Sprigs of seedling can be decorated with bright satin ribbons, turning it into a symbolic "tree of happiness." By tying each ribbon, the couple pronounce their common wishes for the future. The brighter to decorate a tree, the more hope for happiness lies ahead.

But do not neglect the fact that the tree is not only durable, but also flammable material. So the relationship of spouses can destroy the erupting scandals, and frequent quarrels and suspicions will gradually undermine them like termites dry wood. Therefore, relations should be continued to be worked on and irrigated with joint dreams, plans and mutual concessions.

Any caring wife tries to find out in advance about what gift for this date will be interesting for her husband. I want it to be symbolic and useful at the same time. The fifth anniversary of the marriage is celebrated with wooden gifts, which is why I want to know more about them on the eve of the anniversary. Presentations made of wood can be souvenir or practical.

Both options are worth considering.

• Desk. An ideal gift for a spouse who spends a lot of time on papers and in working with documents. All important files will be laid out in drawers, and order and harmony will reign in the office.
• Nightstand. A good choice for a lover to read before bedtime. The spouse will have a personal place to store books, a charger and all kinds of gadgets for personal use.
• Breakfast table in bed. An unexpected present from a caring wife, giving her husband more sleep on the weekend and enjoy coffee and scrambled eggs without getting out of bed. Such a wooden accessory will serve the family for many years for its intended purpose.

With him, watching a movie with popcorn will seem more convenient than usual. Evening tea can be transferred directly to the sofa. Or enjoy a late dinner for two at the table.

• Painting in a wooden frame. You can choose any plot: from the image of a spreading tree, a symbol of family well-being, to a joint portrait made by skilled craftsmen of applied art.
• The lamp on a wooden leg. A graceful addition to the matrimonial bedroom interior to create romantic evenings and bedtime readings.
• A tub for a bath. A device useful to someone who visits the steam room.
• Beer mug made of wood or glass on a wooden stand. Present for a connoisseur of a foamy drink. You can order a commemorative engraving on the mug, indicating the date of the anniversary with a beautiful font and pleasant wishes to your spouse.
• A device for burning - a gift to those who love to leave memorable inscriptions on a tree. A master with golden hands will surely appreciate such an original surprise.
• Smoking pipe. A rare gift from wives who are mainly worried about the health of husbands. If the choice fell on the pipe, do not forget about the related things - tobacco and mouthpiece.
• Handmade chess - A valuable gift for the intellectual. Decoration of any office and a game for a decent pastime.
• Frame for a photo or a whole collage of pictures. Joint frames will be where to show off with pride, so as not to gather dust in heavy family albums.
• Casket. Yes, yes, this is not a purely female accessory, as is commonly believed. The man also has something to put in her bowels: cufflinks, watches, bracelets, funds for future vacations.

Not always, when preparing a gift for the 5th anniversary of marriage, you need to build on stereotypes. Ordinary, but pleasant presentations also have a place to be at the celebration as gifts. A tie pin and an accessory around the neck, a leather briefcase, an elegant and roomy purse, a set of stationery, a trouser belt, a bathrobe and towel, slippers and home pajamas.

Surprises of the spouse can be absolutely personal and intimate as much as is customary in each individual family. Only the wife can be reliably aware of the wishes of her spouse. And to satisfy them or not is up to her.

But how the celebration will take place, the couple decide already. Perhaps this will be a trip out of town to a picnic or a trip to the sea.Or the children will go to their closest relatives, and parents, for example, to a private hotel, where they will spend an unforgettable date, as for the first time.

A trip to the hotel can be replaced by helicopter or hang gliding. Or maybe the couple trusts each other so much that they want to soar together in the sky? A parachute jump on this significant day will make the anniversary truly unforgettable and unusual.

Arrange a honeymoon or share a holiday with guests? It all depends on the social activity of the couple. If young people prefer noisy feasts with music and a celebration script - so be it! Toastmaster at a banquet can be not only a professional, but also godfather or husband’s best friend. Cafe is appropriate to choose with an abundance of wood in the interior.

It will be convenient to order decoration with balls over the Internet and through the network to choose gifts for the faithful. Saving time and money will free up many valuable minutes to appear before the only one in all its glory. Beautiful makeup, stylish styling, fresh manicure and a happy smile of a wife will surpass all the most desirable gifts for your beloved husband!

Wanting to save money or really surprise, the question of a gift for a wooden wedding can be solved with a minimum of costs. To do this, you will need your own hands and strengths, a little imagination and a great desire to bring everything to the end. But in a man-made gift will be enclosed all the love that is in the soul and heart!

• Collage of photos of different years. The history of family life from the first date, kiss and the word "yes" in the registry office to modern days. The birth of children, baptism, joint trips and genuine lively emotions - all this will reflect the frames and remind her husband that he already has the most precious in life.
• Delicious holiday cake. Home baking is very different for the better from all store counterparts. Moreover, every wife in five years of life has learned everything about her husband’s tastes: what he loves more - nuts or fruits, biscuit or shortcrust pastry. It will not be difficult to please her husband, and you can decorate a sweet masterpiece with everything that is at hand. Chocolate chips, crushed cookies, marmalade hearts, bright caramels, juicy cherries and delicate raspberries - a masterpiece for your loved one is ready for presentation and use!

Funny cake in the form of a tree would not be a good option for a gift. Leave the wooden theme for souvenirs.

• Romantic dinner for two persons. Only He and She are surrounded by candles and at a table with their favorite dishes in the family. To cook his adorable salad or meat according to a family recipe - what could be more successful?
• A verse in honor of a spouse. You can create and present strings by your own efforts, guided by feelings. Or take the help of those who do it quickly, beautifully and poetically.

Poetic congratulations on the 5th anniversary of the family will emphasize the importance of the gift and its spiritual essence. Let your feelings not become stiff in five years, but only grow stronger for the joy of you and your descendants. Take care of your family, keep family traditions and loyalty to each other!
