Wedding Anniversary Celebrations
Almost as old as weddings.
More than 27 million Hallmark wedding anniversary cards are given each year, ranging from husband to wife and wife to husband, to family members such as daughter and son, or friends. Couples often keep the anniversary cards they give to each other, and the result becomes a chronicle of their love over time, according to Sharman Robertson, Hallmark historian and archivist.
"As the years together increase, couples begin to treasure their cards, and often children inherit anniversary card collections that include priceless personal notes from the couple to each other, giving children and grandchildren insight into the love that created them, and grew over time," Robertson says.
"Many of the personal card collections that have been donated to Hallmark are in acquired antique collections that document the love between a husband and wife. Even if you don't know the individuals, you can see the kind of love they shared by reading the cards they selected – and especially the personal notes that they wrote on the cards."
