Minneapolis - St Paul Twin Cities Metro Local Flower Deliveries >> Anniversary
The practice of giving unusual gifts on various wedding anniversaries originated in Central Europe. Among medieval Germans it was customary to present the wife of a friend, with a wreath of silver when she had lived with her husband twenty-five years. The silver symbolized the harmony that was assumed to be necessary to make so many years of matrimony possible, hence the 'Silver Wedding Anniversary'. On the fiftieth anniversary of a wedding the wife was presented with a wreath of gold and the 'Golden Wedding Anniversary'. This practice, borrowed from the Germans, has been elaborated upon in modern times.
Although the first anniversary is considered the paper or plastic one, the second, cotton and so on, it is not mandatory that the gift be of the "appropriate" material or composition, it has become popular over the years so send flowers to mark each anniversary. Often we will include a special bow or specific color or variety of flowers, to signify the year of the anniversary.
