Not remotely

[edit]

I'm not saying no one says this (although certainly it's vanishingly uncommon unless there's an actual renewal of vows) but any imagining that this is more common than golden anniversary is misunderstanding the search results, which are 95+% about "golden wedding rings" or "bands". — LlywelynII 02:55, 30 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Etymology

[edit]

Note that silver wedding considers itself to be an 1845 calque from German. — LlywelynII 04:16, 30 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
