FAQ

• Do I have to follow the 20th-anniversary gift themes?

  Definitely not! While choosing a china or platinum gift can help narrow your options when shopping for a present, you certainly don't have to follow these rules. What matters is finding a gift that your partner will adore. Look for something that represents your love and appreciation for the past two decades together.

• How do you celebrate a 20th anniversary?

  After 20 years of marriage, you will surely be on countless dates. So planning a special anniversary celebration can be a challenge. It helps to think about the things you love to do together as a couple and the things you might not always have time for otherwise. If you're both often busy with work, treat yourselves to a spa day for your anniversary and get a couple's massage. Love music? Get tickets to a local concert on your anniversary night to dance and let loose.

  Also, consider the many milestones you've reached together. For instance, a thoughtful date night idea would be to reminisce on the past—take your partner to the spot where you had your first date or to the location where you got down on one knee.
