About 36th Wedding Anniversaries

As you celebrate your 36th wedding anniversary, there are no traditional items to symbolise another wonderful year of married life together. However, you could opt for a modern-day equivalent that is popularly associated with 36 years of married life: an exquisite gift made from bone china.

This soft-paste porcelain is stunning to look at and adds a regal and elegant touch when placed in your home. China is also noted for its strength and durability, thus symbolising a long-lasting marriage.

How to Celebrate a 36th Wedding Anniversary

If you have been maintaining a tradition of choosing travel destinations associated with gifts that symbolise each year’s anniversary, you will no doubt be planning another special trip to mark 36 years together.

With china being the contemporary showpiece of 36th wedding anniversary celebrations, now would be a great time to visit the vast and enchanting country of China.

Take in such venerable sights as the Great Wall of China or the Dragon’s Teeth Mountains in Yangzhou, a town in Guangxi province (south-western China). It is a hugely popular place to visit, for both western and Chinese travellers, thanks to its sublime natural beauty.

Great love affairs start with champagne and end with tisane.” Quoted by: Honoré de Balzac

36th Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him, Her… and the Couple

Depending on your budget, a memorable and lasting gift would be a complete service of china, especially fitting for a couple who don’t have one yet and who entertain quite often. If they already have a service, additional matching or complementary pieces would also work particularly well.

For the couple who enjoy tea, a new bone china tea service that complements their living or dining room décor would be a much-appreciated and appropriate gift.

Alternatively, a bouquet of flowers always adds a stunning personal touch. Or you could book a lavish Chinese meal for just the two of you, or with friends and family.

  • Visit the Wedgwood Museum (now known as the V&A Collection at World of Wedgwood) in Barlaston, Stoke-on-Trent.

However, no matter how many years you have been together (now decades, in your case), each anniversary a couple celebrate being together is a poignant milestone. And it always warrants being recognised in grand style – and enjoyed thoroughly.
