And all because linen was considered the most durable. Later, the anniversary was called coral. This beautiful name also appeared not by chance. The fact is that corals form over the years. And only after decades, unusual, durable and surprisingly beautiful coral reefs appear in the seabed. Family life is somewhat similar to them. After all, having lived together for so many years, the spouses got to know each other better each year, became closer, the relationship became stronger. As a result, happy, strong and beautiful couples celebrate the 35th anniversary of their life together.

How to choose a gift?
It is not so simple to make such a gift to parents so that they like and remember it. The main thing to consider when choosing a gift is that the gift should not only be beautiful, but also symbolic. When choosing a gift for parents, be sure to consider their personal preferences and desires. Sometimes parents themselves talk about what they would like to receive for the anniversary. If they laugh it off and are silent, then you have to turn on your imagination, intuition, and choose the right present on your own.
When choosing a gift, consider the age of the parents. It happens that the thing you choose seems useful and necessary only to you, but for parents it will be completely useless. In addition, give preference to those colors that correspond to the celebration. That is, it can be products not only of coral color, but also of red, pink and even terracotta.
As a rule, parents are happy with any gifts and rarely ask their children for something. But this does not mean that they are not dreaming of anything. Remember, for sure, one of the parents casually mentioned what they had been dreaming about for a long time. Perhaps this is a coffee machine or a new slow cooker. Parents will be very happy to receive such a useful and memorable present from loving children. Each time, using the donated equipment, they will warmly remember you.
As a gift, it is quite possible to present a luxurious tea set. And to make the gift symbolic, you can choose a beautiful coral color service. Parents will also appreciate gifts such as warm blankets, beautiful bedspreads on a bed or sofa, a set of towels, a beautiful tablecloth with fabric napkins, decorative pillows and so on. Be sure to choose all these household items in coral shades in honor of the 35th anniversary of marriage. Pillows, tablecloths and other textiles can be selected from the canvas. You can order personalized embroideries for decorative pillows, and they will daily remind parents of the holiday.
You can give your parents a beautiful picture with a marine theme, where corals will be present. You can order a beautiful portrait of your parents and present it in a luxurious setting.
All the above gifts are souvenirs that will come in handy in the house and will please both parents. But, in addition to one joint gift, you can give individual presents. For example, you can give your mom an original coral-colored necklace or made in the form of small corals. And you can also give a sweater, shawl, stole, scarf or hat of this beautiful shade. When choosing an individual gift for mom in honor of a coral wedding, remember that she should like it. If your mother is not a lover of jewelry, then she is unlikely to ever wear a necklace. And if mom never wore hats, then most likely your present will gather dust in the closet.
For dad, you can choose a beautiful shirt or t-shirt with a coral shade. If the father wears ties and jackets, then you can present him with such a beautiful accessory as cufflinks or a clip. Such accessories should be with coral stones.
