The 15th wedding anniversary is a pleasant and respectable date. Family ties are becoming stronger and stronger - this is facilitated by the joyful events experienced and the joint solution of various problems that cannot be avoided. You definitely need to pay attention to this date - celebrate positively and present successful gifts to the heroes of the occasion.
15th anniversary: what kind of wedding is it, its features
The third marital anniversary was called the crystal anniversary. The characteristics of this material symbolically reflect the relationship between husband and wife on the threshold of their 15th wedding anniversary. The transparency of the crystal hints at the purity and honesty of each person in the couple. After all, these qualities are among the most important for a marital union. They indicate mutual trust and warmth of feelings towards each other.
Despite its visual strength, crystal is fragile and can be broken with some effort. Likewise, relationships can “split” from any outside influence. Only mutual support and strength of feelings can save a family.
Another interesting property of crystal is that it does not heat up.This symbolizes the importance of the ability to reduce the intensity of emotions in a timely manner in order to prevent serious disagreements in the process of solving any problem. Thanks largely to this, it is possible to maintain the family unit.
It is customary to celebrate the anniversary with a large number of invitees. Although, if the couple decided to spend this day just the two of them, who will blame them? The main thing is that the heroes of the occasion experience positive emotions, which will become the basis of pleasant memories.
What to give for a crystal wedding
When choosing a gift, it is customary to focus on the symbolism of the wedding anniversary. However, this is not always possible. For example, it is unlikely that you will be able to pick up a themed souvenir for mercury anniversary. Well, the symbolism of the 15th anniversary gives a wide variety of ideas.
And in a gold frame, crystal looks truly luxurious.
Other original symbolic souvenirs include:
- a crystal nail file - you should put a drawing or a thematic inscription on it;
- stylish sunglasses;
- talisman item;
- wrist watch;
- eternal rose - a stabilized flower in a flask;
- figurine;
- perfume - its bottle fully corresponds to the symbolism of the holiday.
If you have any doubts about choosing a scent, you should give your spouse a purchase certificate. A gift card is not only purchased for visiting a perfume store. You can give it to a visit to a beauty salon or shopping in an exclusive lingerie boutique.
Another category of gifts that are always favorably accepted is modern gadgets. The anniversary of marriage is a worthy occasion to please your spouse with a new smartphone or, if she loves to read, to give a useful gift - an e-book.
Gifts for children, relatives and friends
A crystal anniversary is a reason to gather loved ones.When choosing a gift, you should focus not only on symbolism, but also on the preferences and wishes of the spouses. Perhaps a non-symbolic gift will please the couple and be useful. In addition, it will stand out from the mass of “crystal” souvenirs. As a rule, the gift is given to everyone.
