So when you’re flummoxed on how to design some thoughtful anniversary cards, how can you do it?

Let’s suppose that some of your closest friends have been coupled for years. Either with each other or with their respective partners. Platonic love is enduring magic that is almost indescribable. It rivals romantic love in terms of how important it is for human connection. And yet, romance usually (and sometimes literally) takes the cake! So when you’re flummoxed on how to design some thoughtful anniversary cards, how can you do it? We can help! 

How to Organize the Text on Your Card

Before putting pen to paper, you’ve got to consider your audience. What you say to your best friends will be different from what you say to your siblings or parents! Directly address your intended recipients. The “dear whoever” tag is rather impersonal, and in this case, the wrong move. For your parents, you can use “Mom and Dad” while writing to your spouse or significant other, throw around nicknames and in-jokes only the two of you will understand. 

After that, you should include personal messages, anniversary wishes, and an iconic quote. Milestone years are particularly magical, so don’t forget to mention them in your anniversary cards if such a special occasion is in the cards. The most notable ones are the 1st year, the 5th, 10th, 20th, 25th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 55th, and 60th. 

And at some point, write down the actual words “happy anniversary!” After that, you can proceed to close your message. What else do you want to say? That’s the big question at hand. A warm closing such as “with love to you both” and “all of our love” should come before your name.

Typical Sayings That Convey Well Wishes

You might think that for a card to express what you want to say, you need to use many words. But a wall of text can be difficult to read. Sometimes, keeping it short, simple, and sweet is all you need to do. Here are some ideas to get you started: 

  • “You’ve loved each other for all these years. Let the happy memories continue!” 
  • “Nobody’s perfect, and neither is anything else, but you’re both close to perfect. Happy anniversary!”
  • “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present. Happy anniversary!”
