Why leather?

It is known that leather is a fairly wear-resistant and elastic material, but if you try to pull it in different directions, a crack or even a tear may appear. The same can happen in the relations of already established and relatively strong spouses. But in three years they have already «rubed» with characters,  have learned to understand each other better, «feel skin». The third wedding anniversary — is a very decent period and, despite quarrels and quarrels, the spouses continue to build their relationship further, polishing feelings, «cleaning them to shine».

Rites and customs

It is believed that before celebrating the third anniversary of the wedding, it is necessary to clean the house  and clean it of old, spoiled, unnecessary things. Husband and wife always put the house in order together. After that, they must «cleanse themselves» spiritually: apologize for all the grievances to friends and relatives, repay their debts.

On this day, «bread soup» is put on the table, which is called a symbol of the inseparable connection of a young family with close people. The recipe for this soup is extremely simple: rye bread was added to the usual meat broth. But the symbol of love and loyalty at the holiday becomes a red apple (or any other red fruit), which young people must eat in front of their guests.
