Celebrate Our Love

Wedding anniversary invitations are appropriate items to send out, whether it's your first or your 101st anniversary. Of course, in this day and age, it's hard to find hopping and bumping centenarians! A wedding anniversary is a time to commemorate, reflect upon, celebrate, and give thanks for your commitment, love, and adoration for your spouse or significant other. A wedding anniversary is the anniversary of the date on which the wedding transpired. Married persons have traditionally been the recipients of gifts on their wedding anniversaries, especially in certain years, and this practice is common especially in Western countries like the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, and Canada. Each country, moreover, gives gifts and follows procedures appropriate to certain anniversary years. Each is a slight permutation on the same theme. Couples needn't be married to mail out invitations to friends and relatives. Many couples who have been living together for a certain number of years are recognized as being legally married by the state. This is called common law marriage. Sometimes, the bonds couples share aren't officially recognized by the state with a marriage certificate, but the anniversary can still be celebrated just as well, and the invitations are still appropriate. However, they might need to be homemade because there aren't very many simple anniversary-only invitations. Most invitations are prefaced with the word wedding.
