About 24th Wedding Anniversaries

Music is in the air if you are celebrating your 24th wedding anniversary. Popularly known as the Musical Instrument Anniversary, this is the year when the soothing – and often romantic – sounds of music can be a key theme for your celebrations.

Music touches your heart and mind in a way that is difficult to define. After 24 years of marriage, you will undoubtedly have plenty of music to choose from and remind you of the many wonderful moments you have shared.

How to Celebrate a 24th Wedding Anniversary

Celebrate your 24th anniversary by dancing the night away at a favorite local nightclub.

Or stay in and listen to a compilation of songs played during your wedding day reception, while happily reminiscing about your 24 years together as a married couple.

This is also an excellent opportunity to buy a musical instrument gift for your partner, or for both of you so you can learn to play together.

Other ideas for great musical gifts include a CD set of favourite artists and albums, a top-of-the-range music player, a cutting-edge home speaker system, or a premium subscription to a music streaming service.

Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot do without.” Quoted by: Confucius

24th Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him, Her… and the Couple

The traditional gemstone for this anniversary is tanzanite. The blue of tanzanite reflects the energy of the sky – and marks the beginning of life and emotion.

Blue crystals symbolise trust, faith, patience and respect, providing the focus we need to be more sincere, act more responsibly and become even more loyal.

There is no traditional flower for this anniversary, but the symbolic colour is lavender. Maybe you have lavender fields locally you can visit, or you could plan a special trip to the lavender fields of south-eastern France, in the Provence region.
