Scenario of a wooden wedding

The following is a wedding anniversary script. Acting as a leader can be the bride's girlfriend, her mother, other relatives, or a professional host.

Guests gather, sit in their places. Participants in the process of holding the five-year wedding anniversary hand out wooden spoons to guests; there are no husband and wife at the holiday yet. The host begins to speak:

- Hello, dear friends, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, grandparents! A wonderful day has come - the fifth year from the day of the marriage of the beautiful (Name of the bride) and (Name of the groom). We all sincerely love this couple, and so let's all call them together, knock on spoons!

The assistant host includes a cheerful folk song, guests knock on dishes, the newlyweds come out, the host continues:

- Hello, our favorite anniversaries! For the past five years, you have been for us a wonderful example of pure, beautiful love. We wish with all our hearts, a union as strong as a tree, that your souls be entwined with roots, and the century is as long as that of forest oaks. And now, dear anniversaries, it’s time for you to congratulate each other on the significant date of the fifth anniversary!

Husband:

- Beloved (Name of the bride), for so many years now I can’t think of anyone but you. Days, months, years pass, and my love only grows and grows stronger. You are the most wonderful thing that happened to me in life.

Wife:

- Dear (Name of the groom), I see that every day we are getting better, and our marriage is stronger. Even if there are minor quarrels, turmoil, but all this does not matter when I'm with you. I love you!

The host calls for applause, the guests scream Gorko !, the couple kiss. Then the host continues:

- Well, the tree was not in vain a symbol of the fifth year of life of the spouses. This is the first durable material in the symbolism of wedding anniversaries, which means that your family has become really strong. Wooden objects create coziness, and you can’t find a modern house where there is no furniture made of wood: we throw firewood into the fireplace to warm them during the cold winter, and in wooden bowls the food tastes better than in glass. Our guests have prepared gifts for you, in which this unique material is present - wood.

There is a ceremonial presentation of gifts for a wooden wedding from guests. After this, a cool contest takes place that will entertain those present:

- Dear guests, we see a wonderful couple in front of us, who is only at the beginning of their long journey, despite the fact that they have already spent so much time together. Let's have an interesting competition between you that will express your attitude towards the couple! Divide into several teams, and then say the epithets that suit our wonderful spouses.

Guests are divided into two or four teams depending on the number, they call the words in turn. The condition for the competition is to come up with a compliment epithet in two seconds. A team that skips their time is excluded. The team that remains last wins. The host gives small winners prizes: natural soaps, wooden figurines or sweets.

- Congratulations to the winning team!

The host applauds and makes a toast:

- And now let's raise our glasses for wooden anniversaries, because everything the guests said about them is true!

Guests drink, pronounce congratulations, communicate with the heroes of the anniversary. After a long pause, the facilitator says:

–– Dear birthday people! Yes, birthdays, because we celebrate nothing more than the birthday of your family, the fifth in a row. We see how much you love each other, how you support from the very day of the wedding. Demonstrate this to us again, because it’s not a sin to learn from this once again! (Bride's name), here is a paper napkin. Need to tear it without the help of hands.

Wife tears a napkin.

“And now, dear spouse, you need to find a way to glue her.

The husband collects a napkin together, gluing parts with improvised means. As a glue for such a light material, even a small amount of dressing, which is in the salad, is suitable. The host says:

“I see that you are truly an amazingly understanding couple who will always come to help each other.” We wish you, our esteemed anniversaries, a wooden wedding, to never tear anything so that you do not have to glue it! Bitterly!

The couple kiss, and the facilitators bring balloons equal to the number of guests to the hall.

–The official part of the wooden wedding event is coming to an end. Here is the last gift, diviner balls. You need to burst the ball and read the contents of the note, which will determine your future! Dear anniversaries, be happy. Venerable guests, continue to delight birthday people with toasts and congratulations!

The host returns to the guests, cheerful music sounds, the guests pop the balls, and the celebration continues.

Celebrating a wooden wedding in nature fits perfectly into the context of the event. A bonfire will be built on the shore, where spouses with guests can perform a ritual of burning old things, which will be the final stage of the celebration.

  • Home holiday. The option of a home celebration of a wooden wedding is good because it does not require large investments, you do not need to rent a country house, carry tables, chairs, food, because it is sometimes difficult to cook in nature.
