How to celebrate?
Since the 23rd anniversary of living together is not an anniversary, as a rule, the anniversary is not celebrated on a large scale. But if the spouses have a desire, then it is quite possible to arrange a big feast at which to invite all relatives and friends. In addition, there are certain traditions that should be adhered to on this holiday.
Our grandparents also talked about how this day will pass, and so will the next year of marriage. Therefore, it was decided to spend this day together. Even if one of the spouses goes on a business trip or trip, you can go together.
By tradition, on this day, the couple should wake up early, preferably at dawn. Husband and wife spend this time together while everyone is sleeping.
Spouses must necessarily congratulate each other in words, once again confess to each other in love and renew all the oaths given to each other. Also, the couple exchange gifts that are prepared in advance.
Beryl wedding is a great occasion to arrange a fun and sincere feast. Usually such anniversaries are celebrated at home, in the country or in a small cozy restaurant. Any room in which the celebration will take place must be decorated. At the same time, it is important to consider that exactly those colors that correspond to the beryl wedding should prevail in the interior. Since colorless beryl most often comes across in nature, delicate beige shades can be chosen as the main color.
There are also colored stones in nature. The color of beryl can be very different, since it all depends on the impurities that are in its composition. Such stones are most valued. The most valuable are green minerals and sea-colored stones. Therefore, it is quite possible to decorate the room in similar colors.
The most important thing is that the tablecloth and napkins match the color of the holiday. If the tablecloth is a beautiful emerald hue, then the dishes can be chosen in traditional white color. Also in the interior must be present fresh flowers, preferably red roses, which symbolize love and passion.
As for the festive clothes of the husband and wife, the above colors should also prevail in the outfits. If you prefer other colors in clothes, then do not give up at least bright accessories and details.
There are no traditional dishes that are usually prepared for a beryl wedding. But there is a long tradition, which says that the richer the festive table, the happier and richer the life of the spouses. Therefore, try to set a delicious and varied table. Do not forget that it must necessarily contain all kinds of fruits, as a symbol of love and youth.
If the couple wants to be alone this day, this is also a good idea. Together, you can go for a romantic dinner in your favorite restaurant, go to the theater or a movie. You can go to a country boarding house for a few days to be alone and renew your tender feelings. The main thing is that the couple spend this day in a good mood. This will help them to become positive and live happily ever after.
