4 Suitable Gift Ideas for a 70th Wedding Anniversary
Getting to celebrate a 70th wedding anniversary is no small feat! A couple who will be celebrating 70 years of marriage should be paid tribute to. But what do you get the couple with 70 years worth of memories together?
To celebrate 70 years of marriage would be a miracle and a feat. Choose something that celebrates that 70-journey and all the fruit of it. Enlist all the descendants (children, grandchildren, great-grandkids, cousins, etc) to submit memories, photographs, drawings, newspaper headlines on scrapbook paper and I would compile a “This Is Your Life” type of memory book for the couple. Also give them a DVD, a retrospective on their life before and throughout their marriage with family members speaking of and to them. A gift like this acknowledges the anniversary couple respectfully.
What about a photo or story quilt designed and sewn by a family member for a 70th anniversary gift? The quilt could have a few favorite photos or appliqued symbols representing the highlights of the couple’s best years together. Pictures of grandchildren or great-grandchildren would make the quilt even more special. Using pieces of favorite old and outgrown items of clothing adds even more memory to the quilt.
A special gift for a special couple. Try to find one of these: Pictures now that from a certain angle change to another picture. It would be neat to have the couples original wedding picture and then what they look like today. What a keepsake! Your gift should be memorable item, something that shows how uncommon a 70 year anniversary is.
Getting together the family for a dinner would make a nice 70 year anniversary present. Somebody from the family will prepare a video with the history of the family included the sad and the happy moments. At the end of the video saying does not matter how hard or how easy the life have been, whats really matter is that the couple have been together for 70 years and will be until the end.
I hope that these 70th wedding anniversary gift ideas helped you. These are only meant as a starting place for gift ideas, maybe team up with a few family members and have a brainstorm about it?
