Every wedding anniversary is an important event for the family. Usually a small celebration is held on this occasion, and the spouses try to please each other with gifts. It is desirable that the gifts be useful and correspond to the theme of the holiday. If you don’t know what to give your husband for a faience wedding, use our tips and recommendations for organizing the holiday.
History and symbolism of a faience wedding
There are two versions of the origin of the name “Faience Wedding”.
According to the first, nine years are considered one of the crisis periods for marriage. At this time, the relationship between the spouses becomes fragile like earthenware and can break from any careless movement. We must try to understand a friend, perhaps be more attentive so as not to break up the family. The second interpretation is more positive and easier. Earthenware is a symbol of a simple and unpretentious, but at the same time very pleasant way of life. After 9 years of marriage, the spouses form just such an easy and pleasant relationship, without sudden outbursts and vivid impressions. But so that such an even life does not get boring, sometimes you need to add a little “pepper”.
Both interpretations do not contradict each other at all. Together they remind the spouses that their pleasant and familiar life is, in fact, very fragile. It is necessary to love and take care of each other in order to preserve it.
The nine-year anniversary also has another name - a chamomile wedding. In Rus', this flower is traditionally considered a symbol of love, summer and happiness. Chamomile symbolizes the strong and pure feelings of the spouses.
Congratulations on your 9th wedding anniversary
And of course, what would a wedding be without congratulations? Prose could be such a congratulation, for example: I sincerely congratulate you on your earthenware wedding, on your 9th anniversary of family life. Let your feelings never cool down and be always hot, like fresh tea in earthenware cups with a pleasant aroma of tenderness and an amazing taste of happiness. Or the congratulations can be, for example, in the following poetic form:
In the calendar of family dates, her outfit is faience. There's a whole year until the anniversary: You can't count without 9! Although it is not your anniversary, I would like to congratulate you on your ninth anniversary as soon as possible, Not without reason. Congratulations on this date! Live a friendly and rich life with Love, happiness and family, and so on until your golden wedding!
Knowing that loved ones are celebrating their 9th wedding anniversary, gifts and congratulations need to be prepared in advance and thoughtfully. Then such congratulations will bring a lot of positive emotions and impressions, and will also be remembered for a lifetime. In your words, you must express the warmth, sincerity and respect on which any relationship is built. But if deciding what exactly to say is not so difficult, then presenting it in an original form is much more difficult. And here, perhaps, poetry is best suited. Which can be placed on a postcard made by yourself, or put your wishes on a faience mug. To do this, you can use ready-made options for congratulations for 9 years after the wedding. Do not forget that the main congratulation is the attention, love and care that spouses should give each other not only on their anniversary, but also on everyday days.

How to traditionally celebrate a faience wedding
Although many people think that nine years is not the most important anniversary, many interesting traditions are associated with this holiday. Probably the most famous of them is breaking dishes. During the celebration, the spouses should take several old earthenware or porcelain plates and cups and break them. This symbolizes the renewal of marriage. Together with the old dishes, all problems, grievances and misunderstandings are broken down. Now the feelings will become even stronger.
A good idea is to take a few old plates before the holiday and write something bad on them that you would like to get rid of, and then smash them together.
There are some requirements for table setting. It must have new earthenware or porcelain dishes. The holiday itself can be celebrated as the spouses arrive. It would be good if the room was decorated with bouquets of daisies or an image of these flowers would be on the tablecloth, napkins, etc.
Congratulations, gifts for wife
A gift that is pleasant to every woman - attention, tenderness and affection. Countdown from the first bouquet of daisies in the morning until the end of your life. But seriously, taking into account her tastes:
- jewelry with a pattern of daisies;
- a beautiful box for ladies' little things;
- fashionable clothes with a pattern of daisies;
- favorite cosmetics;
- personalized set of chocolate goodies.
And then - everything she loves, because congratulating your beloved woman on her 9th wedding anniversary is gratitude for all 9 years.
Traditional and themed gifts for husbands for a faience wedding
According to tradition, gifts on this day should be made of earthenware or contain elements made from this material. The most traditional gifts are:
- Crockery. You shouldn't give men plates or sets, but a tea cup with a funny design will be an excellent present. Order a unique image printed on a cup for your loved one. You can choose something that only you two can understand or just good wishes.
- Ceramic order. This is not quite a earthenware present, but close to the theme. Choose an order with an appropriate inscription that reflects the mood of the holiday. The presentation of the order can be turned into a small ceremony with an interesting toast or a wish in verse.
- Photo album with ceramic decorations. It’s unlikely that you’ll be able to buy one at your local store; you’ll have to search a little or order it from a scrapbooking specialist.
- Ceramic photo frame. You should not give an empty frame; it is advisable to insert your general photo into it. You can also order a portrait from the artist and place it in the frame of your choice.
What to give
The name of the anniversary hides a clue as to the nature of gifts for husband and wife.
Usually, all kinds of objects made of ceramics, earthenware or porcelain act as a present:
- Dishes (holiday sets or services, tureens, plates, baking pots, salad bowls, etc.).
- Decorative items (sculptures, figurines, lamps with ceramic lampshades, candlesticks). An original gift would be a custom-made item, for example, a paired figurine of the spouses themselves.
- Decorative plates or panels for the wall. You can choose a print for such decoration yourself, and to apply a picture you can contact a printing house or an artist.
- Paired mugs with photo images, for example, an original collage of photographs of spouses or cool inscriptions with thematic drawings. Such a gift will not cost much, but will give a lot of positive emotions.
- Flower pots.
- Money box.
- Ceramic aroma lamp with a set of essential oils.
The most important thing is that the gift is made from the heart, it is not at all necessary that it corresponds to the theme of the holiday.
To each other's spouses
Congratulations to each other's spouses are necessarily accompanied by gifts.
A husband can give his beloved anything from the list below:
- Jewelry decorated with precious or semi-precious stones.
- A vase for flowers. Be sure to complement such a gift, like any other, with a festive bouquet. In general, you should definitely give flowers for a Chamomile wedding, accompanying them with the main gift.
- A beautiful jewelry box or chest, decorated with ceramic decor.
- Set of dishes.
- Porcelain jars for storing food.
- Home textiles with chamomile print.
- Gift Certificate.
A wife can give a present to her husband, not necessarily relying on the symbolism of the celebration:
- Stylish jewelry (precious metal chain, bracelet, cufflinks or tie clip).
- A set of writing instruments (fountain pen, leather-bound notebook).
- An ashtray made of ceramic or natural stone, as well as a smoking pipe.
- A mug with a joint photo or a memorable inscription or engraving.
- Personalized mini-award or figurine, made to order.
- Gift jar with a supply of products of the “Tasty Help” type.
- Photo frame or poster with a collage of joint photos.
- Collectibles, if the spouse has a corresponding hobby.
Be sure to spend the whole day together, giving each other attention: compliments, words of gratitude. It is better to postpone any matters until later. This day should be filled with love and understanding. You shouldn’t skimp on showing sincere emotions.
An original and memorable gift from spouses to each other can be updating the plumbing in the house.
Guests and relatives
Traditionally, a gift for spouses from relatives or friends should symbolize fragility. But it is not necessary to follow this sign. The most important thing is that the gift should be:
- Necessary in the household and practical, reminiscent of true friends and a cheerful holiday.
- Originality is always valued; you should not limit your imagination. Gifts made to order, selected taking into account the individual characteristics of the couple, are especially good.
- The gift should be useful to both spouses at once. Of course, you can simultaneously present separate gifts to each of them, for example, a hairdryer for a woman and a set of tools for a man, but family gifts are of great value.

Romantic gift for husband
A little romance is the best gift for your beloved husband on any wedding anniversary. A good option is an evening in an unusual environment. If you don't plan to celebrate your ninth wedding anniversary with friends, you can spend the evening alone. Invite your husband to his favorite restaurant or cafe, have a picnic or an evening on the roof.
Use all your imagination and you will definitely come up with something stunning. If your wedding was in the summer, look for a chamomile field in the vicinity of the city and have a picnic there. If it's winter, you can invite your husband to dinner in the greenhouse. Even if there are no daisies there, you will have an interesting time.
If a celebration with friends is planned for the evening, give your husband a little romance in the morning. Bring him coffee in bed in a faience mug on a tray decorated with a bouquet of daisies, or even a whole breakfast. By the way, it’s not a sin to start such a day with champagne, but it’s better to drink it from glasses rather than earthenware mugs.
Men rarely appreciate romantic surprises, but if you make a heart-shaped cake, your spouse will definitely like it. You can also write him a small congratulation and confession in verse. To make the gift match the holiday theme, the rhyme can be printed on a mug or plate.
Congratulations and gifts from friends and acquaintances
Since the holiday is associated with something cozy and homely, the best gifts would be something for the home:
- tableware - personalized plates, personalized mugs, tureen, baking pots;
- teaware;
- jugs for milk and juice;
- cute kitchen little things - cheese board, fruit bowl, spice sets;
- flower vases, wall decorative plates;
- paired bathrobes with daisies;
- cozy sofa cushions with daisies;
- various figurines for home decoration.
It’s worth talking about figurines in more detail.
A good gift would be figurines with designated movement - flow, take-off, dance, symbolizing progress in life, the development of positivity in family relationships.
The cat is a symbol of fertility and protector of the home, the personification of grace and elegance. The dog is a symbol of protection and devotion.
Elephant - destroys negative influences, supports the head of the family in all matters, attracts prosperity for the family and home. The swan is the bird of love and fidelity. Zebra is a symbol of diversity of life and optimism.
The main thing is that sculptures should not have sharp corners or ugly outlines.
If the owners of the house are not homebodies yet, give them a trip to some cozy country with good service and beautiful nature. Or tickets to the theater, to a concert, to an exhibition.
You can also sing them their favorite song or “create” a family chronicle “Happy 9th Wedding Day” in pictures and photographs.
What to give to parents for a faience wedding
What do children give for a faience wedding? They can give their beloved parents:
- handmade congratulatory poster;
- wish list for a faience wedding in pictures;
- earthenware piggy bank;
- personalized mugs (wipe the mugs with alcohol, write on them with contrasting porcelain markers, then dry for a day and heat in the oven for 60 minutes at 150 degrees);
- a set of honey or favorite tea.
You can also weave a wreath of daisies for your mother if it’s summer, or ribbons if it’s winter.
Congratulations to the husband from his wife on his 9th wedding anniversary
The best gift for a husband would be the absence of comments and the presence of encouragement. But seriously, this can be any proof of your attention:
- medal “for fidelity” or “the best husband of all times and peoples”;
- personalized beer mug;
- spacious ashtray;
- coffee table with a set of newspapers.
Congratulating your husband on his 9th wedding anniversary is a responsible matter, so you can add to the list taking into account his interests.
A gift for your spouse based on your hobby
If you want to please your husband, you don’t have to follow the theme of the holiday; you can choose something that interests him and add a small souvenir made of earthenware, or even do without it. You probably know your husband’s hobbies very well, so you can choose the right gift:
- A lover of fishing, hunting and outdoor activities will need all kinds of camping utensils, a folding grill, a good knife with many functions, a sleeping bag, etc.
- If your husband spends a lot of time at the computer for work or while playing, he will need all kinds of PC accessories, as well as a heated cup to keep drinks warm while he is distracted, a massage cover for a computer chair, etc.
You can easily choose an interesting book for your husband, pick up car accessories or tools. If you are not sure about your choice, you can find out through unobtrusive questions what your loved one would like. Don’t be afraid to reveal a surprise; it’s better to slightly reveal the secret than to buy something unnecessary and useless.
If your husband doesn't have a hobby, choose something for relaxation. For example, if he likes to drink beer with friends on the weekend, give him a beautiful beer mug or an unusual intoxicating drink from another country. Those who like to lie on the sofa will love an orthopedic pillow or a warm blanket with sleeves. This way your husband will remember you during the most pleasant hours of your holiday.
