All 25Th Wedding Anniversary Invitations Should Be Unique And Personalized

By Ida Dorsey


Wedding anniversaries are special and something you want to share with friends and family - especially if you and your spouse spent a whopping 25 years happily together in loving matrimony! Most happily married couples celebrate their wedding date every year with a romantic occasion. However, silver, gold and diamond anniversaries are true milestones and calls for a huge festivity. Therefore, 25th wedding anniversary invitations should be stylish, unique and reflect the love and personalities of the couple.

The idea of celebrating a wedding anniversary comes a long way. It dates back to the days of the Holy Roman Empire, when husbands demonstrated their appreciation and love for their wives by crowning them with a silver wreath on their 25 wedding anniversary and a gold one on their 50th. Like with everything, this noble tradition soon became commercialized and today there is a specific symbol or gift for each year of marriage.

Today, couples can celebrate their wedding day annually with special gifts that symbolize the number of years they have been married. Gifts made of wood, tin, crystal and china are for the first twenty anniversaries, while silver, pearl, ruby, gold and diamond gifts symbolize anniversaries of 25, 30, 40, 50 and 60 years respectively.

Deciding how to celebrate one's 25th year of matrimony can already be daunting. One must decide how many people and specifically who to invite without offending some friends or family members. The location and nature of the event can be equally difficult. Outdoor events are mostly weather permitting and indoor events require a venue with the right ambiance and size to accommodate all guests. Should it be formal or informal?

Designing and writing an official invitation for a silver wedding anniversary can be tricky if you are not artistic or do not have a flair for words. A truly classy and unique invitation entails more than just one or more photos of the couple and specifications regarding the time, date, venue and nature of the occasion. The design, paper, font and wording are crucial to create the right effect and style.

An anniversary invitation should not only be stylish and professional, it should also reflect the nature of the event and the personalities of the couple. It can be formal, informal and even have a touch of humor, but it must still be professional and stylish to show respect. Even if you plan an outdoor, informal barbeque, the invitations need not look tatty and unprofessional.

There are zillions of mass-produced cards of all kinds in shops and on the internet. Some of them may be perfect for a small, first or second wedding celebration, but a 25th wedding anniversary require something as special as the occasion itself. The best option is to get general ideas for a design, theme and wording from the mass-produced cards and then seek the help of a professional person to design your own, unique personalized invitations.

Professional graphic artists who specialize in the design of customized wedding anniversary invitations have the ideas, experience and expertise to come up with something new for every client. If you are prepared to spend time and money on celebrating your 25th wedding anniversary, you might just as well spend some money to ensure the invitation is perfect and professional and just what you want!
