What to give for 12 years of marriage after the wedding?

The anniversary of marital relations is one of the main family holidays. Celebrate it in each house in its own way according to tradition, budget and your own wishes. Many do not celebrate solemnly non-circular dates. But the spouses do not forget to sit in a quiet family circle or remember the best moments of the marriage in seclusion. Twelve years of marriage are worth a memorable day. A holiday is good when it is in the soul. And to share their emotions with loved ones or save for two, the heroes of the occasion decide for themselves.

The 12th anniversary of life together is called nickel. In Ancient Russia, it was celebrated not exactly twelve years after the wedding, but they waited another 5 months from the cherished date of the wedding. But modern traditions have reinterpreted this rule in such a way that it is convenient for reference and significant in numbers.

To be able to save the marriage for 12 years is not an easy task, which not all couples manage to solve. Only truly loving and wise alliances survive all crises and maintain a strong and close relationship. The joint years temper feelings and help the spouses with the help of each other receive the education of a teacher, raising children, a psychologist, building relationships, an accountant, distributing the family budget, a builder, building their own house. It’s just right for them to hand over a diploma in multilateral exposure and jewelry faceting of marriage.

Nickel is distinguished by durability, gloss and stability.Relations in a friendly family are inherent in his physical qualities. If spouses respect and protect each other, then the relationship will not fade over time. Without subjecting them to tests and stresses, you can keep the marriage as strong as nickel.

The 12th anniversary of life together has a few more titles with an interesting story. Some peoples call it silk. This is explained by the fact that silk is considered a noble and durable material, which is always highly valued and knows no wear. The strength of silk thread is comparable to wire. So the relationship of the couple in this period cannot be broken by negligence. To break the harmony in marriage, you need very good reasons that, as a pruner, can break the trust and bond between spouses.

And among residents of the United States, the twelfth anniversary of the wedding is called pearl. Among Americans, it is believed that such a significant date can only be compared with precious pearls. This is the same miracle of nature, not everyone can possess.

In China, one of the symbols of this wedding anniversary is considered the "king of flowers" - a peony. It symbolizes nobility, love and happiness, promises abundance and reverence. A lush, blossoming flower attracts luck, and is no less revered in the West. In ancient times, it was used in medicine, and among the Greeks it was treated as a talisman promising longevity.

However, no matter what name is assigned to this date, the number of years lived is worthy of praise and congratulations. Spouses have already tested their feelings, their union is strong, the house is cozy, children are growing up and there are many plans in advance. But relationships need to continue to be monitored with the same attention, otherwise they can lose their outer luster and inner beauty, ceasing to be precious to both.

A nickel wedding has its own traditions and established rituals, and features of the celebration are associated with them. In the old days, spouses who celebrated the 12th anniversary of marriage received dirty dishes from guests. The hostess had to clean the pans, pots and spoons to a shine. If she coped with the task, the family expected well-being in a relationship and way in the house. The lazy wife ritual predicted problems in marriage.

For 12 years of marriage, the couple has probably already acquired nickel household items or utensils made of alloys with nickel in their composition. A hostess with such a substantial experience should keep them in order, maintaining shine and cleanliness.

Modern hostesses, on the eve of a memorable date, shine all household utensils from teaspoons to five-liter pots. They sincerely believe that after such a cleansing of the dishes, a bright future awaits the family. In fulfilling this task in strong families, husbands help wives. This is not considered a gift to the spouse from the missus. Mutual assistance and support in all matters is the key to a happy and long marriage.

This date is usually celebrated not in large companies, but in a close circle of people close to the family. Husband and wife leave in the morning in places that once became landmark for them. For example, they attend a church where they were married, a park or cafe where the first date, meeting place and first kiss took place. Often spouses conduct a family photo shoot, starting at the registry office and ending at home. If a celebration is planned for the evening, the spouses can be met with a traditional showdown with coins, promising them further prosperity. It’s better to get a nickel change. It will be very symbolic and beautiful. However, guests are not forbidden to accompany a married couple to places of pleasant memories.

Cutlery made of nickel silver or nickel should be present on the festive table. You can hold a second wedding ceremony, simulating a trip to the Wedding Palace.A pair of nickel rings, an impromptu veil on the bride’s head and a flower in the buttonhole of the groom’s suit - and the job is done. You can relive so many pleasant emotions again! If there are disagreements and old grievances between the wife and husband, then it is time to forget about them and begin life from a new stage. Unquenchable love will be confirmed by the kiss of the couple to the cries of "Bitter!"

Husband and wife will not only have to celebrate a joint date, but also take care of gifts to each other. It can be not only material values, but also spiritual surprises. For example, you can spend this day together, ending the holiday with an incredible night. The anniversary of 12 years is called silk, that is, the name itself tells you to buy new silk underwear for the family bed and try it on the fortress.

Fragrant flowers and candles, quiet romantic music - this is all that is needed to create a special atmosphere. Feel free to try something new, open up to each other from unknown sides. There is a chance that it is this night that will change life for the better, laying the foundation for a new happy stage.

As a gift to his wife, the husband traditionally presents flowers. The most relevant for this anniversary, of course, are peonies. The airy bouquet looks very elegant and symbolic. You should find out what the shade of peony means and make up your original bouquet with subtext:

• pink indicates respect in the family and promises material well-being;
• red expresses love, passion and devotion of feelings;
• purple - a symbol of protection and permanence;
• white is the color of stability, sincerity and tender affection;
• yellow - harmony and harmony in a relationship.

If the wife likes to grow flowers, peony seeds will come in handy. But gardening tools should not be presented as a gift on such a significant day. It is better to hint your beloved about caring otherwise. For example, presenting a subscription to a beauty salon or inviting you to dinner at your favorite restaurant. Going on a trip to the weekend is also a great option for a festive pastime.

Equally useful will be a joint walk in the park on horseback, a trip to an amusement park, where swings and carousels will allow you to forget all the adult problems for a while and relax your soul. Two movie tickets for a touching melodrama followed by a visit to an ice cream and dessert cafe will sweeten the celebration. You can experiment as you want, because on this holiday only spouses decide how to spend the day.

The husband also should not feel deprived of attention and surprises. Men's nickel products amaze the imagination with various variations. Choosing something special for your life partner is not difficult. The most traditional gifts are trivial but enjoyable:

• nickel-plated ring;
• cupronickel stand for a tea glass;
• shiny flask with a dedicatory inscription;
• T-shirt with recognition of the best qualities of a loved one;
• a frame for joint photos with a finished general photo in the center;
• personalized mug made of metal for hiking and hot drinks;
• thermos for coffee on the go;
• a briefcase or comfortable backpack;
• fashionable accessories;
• modern gadgets.

True loyal friends will never forget to send family congratulations and gifts on such an event date. Original poems may well pass as a present if presented beautifully and solemnly. Maybe they will be so appropriate that they will become the most memorable gift of this day. You can even beat in verse the presentation of the most banal gift:

We give you this service,

Chur, you should not beat him.

Only tea in it needs to be drunk,

Marry your folded appreciate!

***

I present you with a portrait.

Let it hang for many years

In your bedroom on the wall

Reminding me!

From myself I give glasses

So much more

You have occasion to note

Best events together!

***

Let this wonderful candlestick

Do not stand idle for a long time.

Better use it actively.

For a family of development, really ...

Let it be like a candle in a candlestick

Will be hot all the time

Your mutual love!

Give tenderness over and over

To each other without a trace.

Without “Bitter!”, Only sweet.

***

For memory, take

Wall Clock,

But don't count

Minutes for love.

We give you a coffee machine,

To yourself in the morning

Delicious coffee served

Straight to the warm bed

And everyone was jealous!

Something from small household appliances, home decoration, a beautiful plaid, a tablecloth or souvenirs for decoration will not interfere with the family. Of the traditional things as gifts you can list:

• a set of cutlery from cupronickel;
• silk items (bathrobes, bedding);
• nickel-plated pans.

You can coordinate the gift with relatives and throw in something global that the family dreams of. For example, give them vacation packages at a good foreign resort. Or a home theater for collaborative movie watching. And also the general present will be good - a new bedroom set or a dining group from a table and chairs.

Children also usually contribute to the congratulations process. Of course, they still do not earn money, but they are quite capable of saving from pocket money or doing something with their own hands. Postcards with a decor of silk ribbons look very moving. And also parents will be touched by a homemade flower vase, a poster with the words of wishes. Older children can bake a simple cake or prepare salads. You can pamper your parents with breakfast or hang balloons with numbers 12 everywhere. What is done from the heart is always valued above all.
