Children's wedding anniversaries

Same for our Golden earlier this year. Our friends and family donated generously to Mary's Meals and we had a lovely party with no stress about what to give.

There are so many groups needing help I think its better to give a donation to the person's favourite cause. This is what we did for our 70th birthdays, saves people worrying about what to get and I certainly didn't need any more 'stuff'. Everyone is a winner.

we asked our parents to sponsor a child for a year for our 25th anniversary.We gave friends the charities names that we support an dold them we didn't need or want presents BUT if they wanted we would rather see their money go to these charities.All but one did as we asked...well we hope they did One bought us chrysta glasses.We did the same for 30th and 40th .Our friends are celbrating their 40th this year ,they've gone down the "wedding present" route and asked for cash for a trip to the maldives!!

DD and SIL celebrated their silver wedding last year, we gave them money for a holiday. They live in Europe so it was easier than sending a gift.

Send them an ammount of money to treat themselves to a meal or something they need for the home, but do it in silver 50p pieces!!!
