About 19th Wedding Anniversaries
Your 19th wedding anniversary is popularly known as the Bronze Anniversary, symbolising a tougher, resilient and more durable relationship after nearly two decades together.
After your 18th anniversary celebrations 12 months ago, the 19th is the final year of the “teens”. So what better time to celebrate in a style that befits you and your partner’s still fresh and youthful passion for married life.

How to Celebrate Your 19th Wedding Anniversary
If you are keen golfers, this is a great excuse (not that one is necessarily needed) to head down to your local course, enjoy a lovely day together on the fairways, and later relax at the “19th hole” – the clubhouse – for a romantic meal and a bottle of your favourite wine.
If golf is not your thing, this is also a great anniversary to go travelling further afield.
The gemstone associated with this anniversary is aquamarine, which means this 19th wedding anniversary has an obvious connection with the sea and coastal getaways.
How about arranging a serene sailing boat cruise, listening to just the sound of the sails and the waves, sipping Champagne and sharing a sumptuous box of chocolates.
Bronze is the mirror of the form; wine, of the heart.” Quoted by: Aeschylus
19th Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him, Her… and the Couple
You could jet off for a seaside holiday, somewhere tranquil away from the crowds. Perhaps cruising around the stunningly pristine Nordic fjords, or relaxing in the crystalline waters of the South Pacific, or luxuriating in Maldives, or chilling out in the picturesque Canary Islands.
If your budget doesn’t stretch to an extended holiday overseas, or even a weekend away, there are still plenty of other gift options – for him, her or both of you.
