Wedding Anniversaries: the 7th!

The seventh wedding anniversary is the Copper one. It is an important wedding date although it is not round. Being a good electrical and heat conductor copper is soft and ductile. Thus it is considered that the couple who has managed seven years together have adjusted themselves to one another.

Wedding Anniversaries: the 8th!

Is the 8th anniversary anything special? No,- the most probable answer is, but if you are one of those stating that the 8th wedding anniversary is not your 5th or 10th anniversaries, you are mistaken. Let us view it in this light...

The number eight is considered particularly auspicious in Chinese culture because it sounds similar to the word for 'prosper' or 'wealth'. It is pronounced like "bah" in Mandarin (pinyin: bā).

I also like the visual aspect of the 8th anniversary because it is similar to the infinity symbol which is a happy thing to associate with the connection you have with your husband or wife.

The traditional materials of the anniversary are those of bronze or pottery.Besides linen and lace are considered to be the modern symbols for the 8th anniversary.
