Wedding Anniversaries
Remembering
and celebrating the day that two people
committed to a life together is
a special time. You may choose to celebrate
your anniversary with a party, renew your
vows in front of close family and friends or
simply share the memory of the day between
just the two of you. Either way, an
affective theme for the day is to
incorporate the
traditional gift of the anniversary.
In addition to the gifts listed below, it is
also common practice for an eternity ring to
be
given to the lady couple to symbolise an
eternity together.
