Celebrating Your Twenty-fifth Anniversary
You’ve been with your partner for a quarter of a century. When put that way, twenty-five years is already a significant amount of time with each other.
One of the most special gifts you can give is to make your partner remember all the times you are together, over the years. A time capsule is a worthy gift. Surprise the partner with memories from wedding programs, birth announcements, programs and ticket stubs, and other reminders of how you’ve met and started your journey together.
Another great idea that everyone can contribute to is a charm bracelet with charms representing significant events over the past twenty-five years. You, your children, extended family members and friends could all contribute a special charm for the bracelet, all made of silver or sterling silver.
Many couples choose to renew their vows on their twenty-fifth anniversary. If you choose to have a formal ceremony to commemorate renewal of your vows, a picture and video collage of the special moments over the twenty-five years you’ve been together would be a memorable addition to the celebration.

Iris Gift Suggestions
There are between 200-300 species of iris. Iris is Greek for rainbow referring to the variety of colors of the iris blooms. The iris is not only loved for its flowers but prized for the perfumes made from the plants’ roots. A favorite of many artists, the iris was a favorite of Van Gogh, among others.
Irises are planted in the late summer to early fall and bloom in the early summer. Iris plants would make a great and lasting gift if your anniversary is in the late summer or early fall. You can find iris bulbs at your local nursery or purchase online from White Flower Farms.
Irises are also ideal flowers for cut flower arrangements. Order one for your partner from FTD.
If you want to give a lasting silk iris arrangement, you can find iris by the stem or in bouquets at Afloral. The nice thing about a silk arrangement is it will last a long time, reminding your partner everyday of your wonderful and lasting twenty-five-year relationship.

Celebration Ideas
The twenty-fifth anniversary should be celebrated with flair. A formal reaffirmation of your vows or an informal gathering of friends and family is an appropriate celebration and should focus on the memories of the last twenty-five years. I really like the idea of a time capsule or video presentation showcasing the mementos of the important events of the relationship.
