Anniversary Toast

Here's a toast to the two of you
As you celebrate together;
You're the poster kids for happiness,

Your love continues, warm and bright;
May it shine throughout the years;
You’re an example for the rest of us,
So here’s to you: Three cheers!

For their anniversary, say something thoughtful. Wedding anniversary poems can convey positive observations about a marriage, as this anniversary verse does. Attach this to an anniversary gift or put it on an anniversary card to touch their hearts.

Best Marriage

Your anniversary marks the day
When you both said "I do."
The two of you became as one,
A marriage bright and new.

Now time has passed; your love is strong;
You passed the early test.
Your tender bond grows with passing time;
Your marriage is the kind that’s best!

By Joanna Fuchs

Sometimes wedding anniversary poetry can take a look back to compare the marriage as it was with what it is and what it will become. This free verse (nonrhyming) poem does that.

Remember?

Remember the first flush of love
that drew you powerfully together?
It still feeds the unassailable bond
that makes your marriage so secure.
Remember all the qualities about each other
you found so endearing?
They are still there,
and new ones create sweet surprises.
Remember thinking that this love
would last forever?
Your love has strengthened and grown
into eternal affection and admiration.
Years from now, you'll look back
at this anniversary
and realize you love each other
more than ever.

Happy Anniversary!

When You Found Each Other

When you two found each other,

whose company is always a comfort.

the source of endless pleasure
and memories to treasure.
May your anniversary remind you
of how precious that day was,
when you found each other.

For we know that you will ever be
A couple whom we adore.
