Your 25th wedding anniversary is a momentous and joyous celebration. After a quarter-century together, your relationship is a shining example of love and commitment – so an especially effusive congratulations for this year’s milestone.

The 25th year of marriage is appropriately celebrated as the Silver Wedding Anniversary, symbolic of one of the most precious metals known to man and prized the world over for thousands of years.

Like silver, may your marriage continue to shine through many more days of splendour and radiance as you happily grow older together.

Many couples choose to celebrate their 25 year anniversary with an intimate gathering of those they love. Some plan an exquisite luxury holiday, while others opt for quiet night at home together, with a celebratory bottle of Champagne and a candlelit dinner.
