Wedding Aniversary Invitations

A life of commitment, a life of support, a life filled with joyous moments, a life with its good-s and bad-s, a life spent in experiences shared between man and wife, this is what a wedding anniversary brings. Living a life for which you exchanged the vows during your wedding day, that day that carried within the feeling of love which you shared to your families and friends and which now is looking back at you from the frames of a wedding photo that hangs on the wall. It is that day that you want to celebrate in few weeks, and the photos from the walls are smiling back at you as in a constant encouragement while you count the days left till your 50^th anniversary is about to take place.

Your intention is to have a family dinner with your children and your grandchildren and for this you start to make some plans and to order some flowers to decorate the place, maybe the same flowers that have been part of your wedding decorations; you talk also with the bakery shop to have a 50^th wedding anniversary cake with the same accessories that have decorated your wedding cake – lucky you that you still have the photos to remind you about the wedding reception where the cutting cake moment was immortalized on the film. Before organizing these details you want to start writing the wedding anniversary invitations for your children and their kids, to let them know in time about the event that is going to take place.

All this life you have lived together has presented itself to you as a good occasion to communicate between yourselves without using the words, that now when it comes to the wording for your wedding anniversary invitations, your husband agrees with a smile in the corners of his eyes, the smile that you have always loved at him, the same smile to wrinkle the sunrays around his beautiful blue eyes. While writing your invitations you are still amazed of how the time has passed by; it only seems like yesterday when you were planning your wedding day with all the things to do, sometimes feeling confused and tired and squeezed of all the energy.

Now with this passage of time you have gained wisdom, more patience and more experience; after all you have assisted at your children’s weddings with your advices and helping hands whenever it was necessary. In some way, with all these preparations for your wedding anniversary, you relive the moments of the past, feeling a kind of excitement to populate your mind, though not at the same intensity, but still there, making its presence felt in a special way.

You reach for the photo where it shows you and your husband as bride and groom with the background of a photo studio, a painting of Niagara Falls, the place where you have celebrated your wedding day. This photo is the one you want to duplicate and make it as a front cover for your wedding anniversary invitation, whereas its back side to contain the wording for your family members. And this being already settled, as usual, you start sharing the tasks involved in the planning of your wedding anniversary – it comes natural to you, after all isn’t marriage based on sharing?
