About 44th Wedding Anniversaries

Your 44th wedding anniversary marks many wonderful years together and a flood of poignant memories recalling your special wedding day. This definitely calls for a celebration, even though you might already be thinking about how to mark another major milestone – your 45th – next year.

This is variously described as the Gourmet Anniversary or Grocery Anniversary. Whichever is traditionally more accurate, the 44th anniversary is unquestionably symbolised by food and is worthy of a grand gastronomic celebration.

How to Celebrate a 44th wedding Anniversary

If you have not enjoyed the pleasure yet, now could be the ideal time to visit a Michelin-star restaurant and savour a gourmet meal.

Alternatively, you could buy some gourmet ingredients and cook your own lavish meal at home – sitting at a dining table set with your finest silverware and reminiscing together over a bottle of excellent wine. Depending on the time of year, you could enjoy your meal outside and watch the sun set on a memorable evening – just for two.

Love doesn’t sit there like a stone; it has to be made, like bread; remade all of the time, made new.” Quoted by: Ursula K. Le Guin

44th Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him, Her… and the Couple

There are no specific flowers associated with 44 years of marriage, but say it with flowers anyway. A mixed bunch comprising flowers represented by treasured past anniversaries will make a stunningly romantic and thoughtful gift.

Jewellery is always a favourite, although there is no traditional gemstone or precious metal universally attributed to this anniversary (apart from turquoise in some countries).

So, maybe commission a special ring featuring your loved one’s birthstone, or buy that watch he saw when you were out together one day. Both would add a wonderfully romantic touch to this year’s celebrations.
