Frequently asked questions about anniversary cards


What should I write in an anniversary card?

"If you’re sending an anniversary card to a couple you know, keep your message simple and straightforward. Congratulate the couple on another year of togetherness, wish them well for the upcoming year, or search online for quotes and poems about love that you find touching. So long as you're sincere your message will make a perfect landing. If it’s your own anniversary, this is a perfect opportunity to to show your spouse how much they mean to you. Did you write each other love notes when you were first dating? Bring back some of that giddy euphoria. Write them bad poetry. Write them good poetry. Reminisce about an early date, or all them how much you look forward to growing old together."


How do I make anniversary cards with photos?

Go old-school with some scissors, card stock, and glue, or digitize your design with an online tool like Shutterstock Create. If you decide to go digital, choose an anniversary card template or create a new blank document in the size you need. Templates make it easy to see where you can place text and images effectively and creatively. Once you've made your changes and added your photos to your anniversary card, print it out on card stock or send it digitally to the recipient.


How do I make an anniversary card for my grandparents?

Reaching a landmark year like a 50th anniversary, or a 60th, or a 70th (you get the idea), is no small feat. Celebrate your grandparents reaching major anniversary milestones—and all the loving years in between—with a card of your own design. Add photos of your grandparents from those many happy years, and maybe even images of your extended family growing as the decades rolled by. If you're throwing a party for your grandparents' anniversary, you can even change the colors on your card to match the party's color scheme. Print out your card for delivery on the special day, or send it digitally if your grandparents are the tech-savvy type.
