Celebrating the date of a marriage is always a momentous milestone. An anniversary helps fortify the love couples continue to nurture year after year, and a beautiful bouquet of flowers is one way to mark the occasion. Here are several tips for choosing an anniversary flower arrangement befitting the special day.

How to Select Anniversary Flowers

1. Choose Their Favorite Color

Ask the florist to include flowers of all kinds in your sweetheart's favorite color. This loving gesture will show you put considerable thought into the planning process. If your loved one has two favorite hues, customize the anniversary flower bouquet to reflect the preferences.

2. Match the Anniversary Year

Find out which flower pertains to the anniversary year. For example, carnations mark the first year, while daisies, daffodils, and asters celebrate the fifth, 10th, and 20th anniversaries, respectively. If you’ve been married for five years or more, incorporate the appropriate flower for each year of marriage.

3. Consider Wedding Replicas

Think back to the flowers that were used at your wedding bouquet and select the same flowers and colors used in their boutonniere or bouquet to recapture the special day. Include a copy of a photo from the ceremony or reception with the arrangement for extra recognition.

4. Include Children's Colors

If you and your partner have kids, incorporate your children's favorite colors into the anniversary flower arrangement as well. Pairing flowers to your special day connects the start of your love journey with where your lives are now.
