About 37th Wedding Anniversaries

When you were married 37 years ago, could you have imagined you would be celebrating this wedding anniversary together? For many couples, probably not… the 37th wedding anniversary is another exceptional milestone and one to be immensely proud of.

There are no classic gifts and symbols associated with the 37th wedding anniversary, possibly because when the traditional list of gifts was being devised it wasn’t expected that people would consider 37 to be a significant number warranting a special celebration. But times change…

How to Celebrate a 37th Wedding Anniversary

So what if this is “just” the 37th! It might be two years since your Coral Anniversary and three years short of an even more epic four decades of married life. Nevertheless, here you are still eager to celebrate this amazing day together. The question is: what should you think about doing or buying for your loved one on this anniversary?

The normal body temperature is 37 degrees, so how about heating it up a little and enjoying a pleasant hot spa together. Spas are both relaxing and romantic, especially if you treat yourselves to a sensual massage as well.

The atomic number for Rubidium is 37 – an element often found in fireworks. Just because you have been together for 37 years doesn’t mean the fireworks (good ones, that is) have to fizzle out. Light the fuse and recall some of the fiery and fun things you got up to in the early days of your marriage 😉

My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite.” Quoted by: William Shakespeare (Romeo and Juliet)

37th Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him, Her… and the Couple

Still stuck for gift ideas? Well, William Shakespeare was thought to have written 37 plays. Why not hunt down a local performance of one of his plays and take your loved one to see it? 

Alternatively, 3 and 7 are the first two digits of the dialing code for Monaco. If your budget can stretch to it, the glamorous principality would make a spectacular setting for a fabulous anniversary celebration.

If not, your loved one would appreciate 37 beautiful flowers – or 37 delicious chocolates.
