anniversary of the date on which a wedding took place
"Fifty years since our wedding day", sentimental painting by George Hare depicting an elderly couple in a church A wedding anniversary is the anniversary of the date that a wedding took place. Couples often mark the occasion by celebrating their relationship, either privately or with a larger party. Special celebrations and gifts are often given for particular anniversary milestones (e.g., 25, 40, 50, 60, or 70 years). In some cultures, traditional names exist for milestone anniversaries; for instance, fifty years of marriage may be known variously as a "golden wedding anniversary", "golden anniversary" or "golden wedding". At these milestones, certain couples may choose to renew their marriage vows, which is often done through a church service offered in various Christian denominations (such as the Evangelical-Lutheran Churches or the Catholic Church).
