For example, it is customary to invite guests on this occasion in an amount of at least 25 people. And you must notify them at least 25 days before the celebration. It is advisable that the significant date was celebrated with you by those guests who were at the wedding itself.

Step 5
Place at least a few silverware items on the festive table.
Step 6
One of the symbolic rituals of the celebration is when the spouses wash each other with cool water from a silver jug. This action is repeated three times, and you need to wipe yourself off with a linen towel. The remaining water is not poured out, but the jug is placed in the air so that it evaporates naturally. Together with water, according to the ritual, problems and hardships will disappear from the family without a trace.
Step 7
A husband and wife celebrating a silver wedding give each other silver rings. Putting them on the finger of your soulmate, say: "Wisdom-happiness will remain, trouble-trouble will crumble to dust." The ring should be worn on the middle finger of the right hand (next to the wedding ring) and not removed throughout the anniversary year.
