Every wedding anniversary deserves to be celebrated in a memorable way. Celebrating your wedding anniversary each year is a time to express the renewal of your commitment to one another.
Anniversary Celebration Ideas:
Here are some ideas to plan your wedding anniversary celebrations, in a memorable way for you and your spouse.
- Mark your wedding anniversary date prominently on your family calendar by circling the date and noting what anniversary you will be celebrating.
- Plan your anniversary celebrations together with your spouse. Start planning how you will celebrate the day at least two weeks in advance.
- Commemorate each anniversary with a family portrait.
- Keep an anniversary scrapbook or journal of your anniversary celebrations throughout the years. There may be a day when you might not remember how you celebrated some of your anniversaries!
- If planning a party for the anniversary couple, be sure to make a toast in their honor. If you aren’t having a party, make a special toast one another. Take a moment to express the sentiment of this anniversary and make it memorable.
- On your first, fifth, or 10th wedding anniversary, create a time capsule. You can use a shoe box and seal it with tape. Mark it with a “Open On” date on the outside of the box.
- Plan a weekend getaway. Find a relaxing Bed and Breakfast with in driving distance. If you are more into active get-aways, sneak away to a place where there is plenty of hiking, biking or whatever activity you enjoy as a couple.
- Recreate your honeymoon! If you never took a honeymoon, plan a trip to somewhere you have both always wanted to visit.
- Shop for and cook anniversary dinner together. One person chooses the entree and the other can choose dessert!
