Wedding Anniversaries: the 1st!

Well, the first and the most difficult year is up! Congratulations!
Now is the time for the spouses to celebrate their first anniversary. Though in different countries the first anniversary symbols are different (paper in the US, cotton in the UK and chintz in Russia), the meaning of them is the same. There were quite a lot of arguments and problems during this very first year, the couple is supposed to get used to each other but their love is still passionate!
Why paper?
