Anniversary

A wedding is one of the most important days in many people’s lives, and celebrating the date of your wedding is an annual tradition that has become a great way to celebrate the union between two lovebirds. Whether it’s your first wedding anniversary or your fifty-first, Here at Zurchers we have all the items you need to make your event memorable.

Planning an anniversary party doesn’t have to be hard! You can make a memorable and fun party using a few simple steps. Remember, an anniversary party should be about remembering the past while looking forward to the future.

An anniversary party should be decorated using lots of photos of the couple. Try to include photos of the wedding day, and any from before marriage if you can find them as well. Consider setting up a slideshow using a computer if you can. This will allow pictures to cycle through and allow guests to enjoy a large number of photos with minimal effort. It’s a snap!

Each anniversary has a specific meaning attached to it. Traditionally, these also correspond to gifts given to couples on anniversaries. Taking this into account when planning decorations will make your party much more memorable.

A fun idea for an activity is to have a comparison of prices game. Show prices for common items in today’s prices, such as a gallon of gas, or a loaf of bread, and have guests guess how much these items cost when the couple was married. The person who guesses the closest to the actual price is the winner!
