The 34th wedding anniversary is known as the amber anniversary. Amber is fossilised tree resin formed over millions of years. It feels warm to the touch and seems to hold sunlight, so this anniversary stands for wisdom, warmth and the value of years lived together. Here is what this anniversary means, how to celebrate it, what to give the couple and how to word your wishes, from short messages to a poem.

Just as a drop of resin becomes a precious gem over the ages, love becomes priceless and enduring after 34 years of marriage. In Ukraine amber has long been seen as a good-luck charm, so amber jewellery is given “for health and family happiness”.
Anniversary names vary between sources, as the tradition grew up orally and differently from country to country. The most common Ukrainian name for the 34th anniversary is the amber anniversary.
Thirty-four, an amber day,
Glowing with the years you have shared —
May the sunshine light your way
In a home where love is always there.
Celebrate the amber anniversary in a warm setting: dinner with honey desserts, a trip to Polissia where amber has been mined for centuries, or a family walk through a golden autumn park.The previous anniversary is the 33rd (stone), and the next is the 35th (coral).
The most symbolic gift is amber jewellery: a necklace, bracelet, earrings, cufflinks or a ring. Amber boxes and figurines, honey treats, beeswax products and scented candles are also popular.
Flowers suit any anniversary: a husband gives his wife a bouquet in the morning, and guests bring flowers along with their gift. For ideas for parents, see anniversary gifts for parents.
For the 34th anniversary, give lavish roses or flowers in honey, yellow and orange tones. A morning bouquet is the simplest way to say you still care.
