Cultural Note
'Rocznica ślubu' (wedding anniversary) is an important celebration in Polish culture. Poles celebrate milestone anniversaries with special names: 'srebrne gody' (silver anniversary, 25 years), 'złote gody' (golden anniversary, 50 years). Forgetting your 'rocznica' is considered a serious faux pas. Many couples celebrate with dinner, flowers, and revisiting their wedding venue.
