Wedding anniversary. It is customary for married couples to celebrate their wedding anniversaries. The 10th, 25th, and 50th anniversaries generally receive special attention.
A certain type of gift is appropriate for many anniversaries. For example, silver is given to a couple married for 25 years, and gold is given to a couple married for 50 years.
Invitations to an anniversary celebration may be simple, handwritten notes or formal, printed or engraved cards, depending on the number of guests expected. In early years of marriage, the couple usually hosts a party for close friends to celebrate the anniversary. In later years, their children and grandchildren may honor them with a party or send them on a cruise or a trip.
