A year ago, a young couple celebrated a wooden anniversary from the wedding day - and here is the first "metal" anniversary. Every year, moving the green wedding farther and farther away (wedding day ), the relationship of the spouses becomes stronger, and this is reflected in the names of the wedding dates: cotton, paper, leather, linen, wooden. The family is getting older, more and more joint memories, customs, family traditions appear . A lot is now connecting the young couple. Usually, for this anniversary, the family already has a child, and, quite possibly, not one. A cast-iron wedding is a date that should unite a husband and wife, help them believe that everything in life can be overcome if you are together with each other. It is during this period - 6-7 years after the wedding - that the crisis of family relations occurs. Those who can withstand and cross this line in six to seven years have a chance to live to see more expensive “metal” anniversaries: tin, steel, silver, gold, etc.
Six years together: the foundation of the family was laid, it remains only to strengthen it every year and protect it from any hardships. Cast iron wedding: it seems like strong metal - cast iron, but still fragile, rough, and seemingly plain-looking, black. It is fusible and therefore can take any form. So the form of future family relationships depends only on the spouses: whether there will be cracks on the "cast iron" or it will "melt" into a stronger metal. The main thing is to listen to each other, give in, take care of a partner - then the “cast iron” will become more durable and lighter over time. In order to live with your life partner up to the next “metallic” wedding date, you must not forget the simple truth: family happiness consists of everyday trifles, self-sacrifice and kindness, patience and the ability to forgive.
A cast-iron wedding is not a reason to gather a large and noisy company. Usually invite parents, witnesses, close relatives and good friends. Relatives and friends can prepare a comic competition program to test the spouses, to test their knowledge of the habits and characteristics of the spouse. Congratulations on a cast-iron wedding can be put on in a poetic, song or ditty form.
For this wedding, the wife is cleaning all the cast iron utensils to a shine. Dishes are prepared different. But it is desirable that they (or part of them) were cooked on cast iron utensils (pans, baking dishes , etc.).
From the name of the wedding date - a cast-iron wedding - it is clear what a young family can give as a present on their wedding. And it is customary to present things made of cast iron. This can be practical kitchen utensils, always needed in the household (pans, pots, ducklings, etc.). A small gift will also be small household appliances for the kitchen (a food processor, an air grill, a blender, a double boiler, a microwave oven, a toaster, etc.) A pleasant surprise for young people will be fashionable wrought iron furniture (chairs, armchairs, tables, etc.), original interior decorations (candlesticks, cast-iron wrought animal figures, photo frames, floor lamps, small sculptures or sculptural groups, vases, caskets, sconces, parasol stands, etc.). If a young family over the years has acquired its own cottage or summer house, the original gift will be for them a fireplace grill made of cast iron and the same set for the fireplace (scoop, poker, tongs).
Stability in the family, equal relations, care and love, responsibility for oneself and a loved one, for the child (children) and the family hearth - all this connects spouses who celebrate a wonderful date from the wedding day. A cast-iron wedding is an occasion to once again recall the brightest, happiest moments of family life, to look at your beloved person with new eyes and to understand that he is dear to you with all his sweet and not very habits, with his quirks and moods. A cast-iron wedding is an opportunity to renew slightly faded romantic ties that once connected two loving people.
