What people write

A few words each, signed with a name. These show you the tone.

From friends

  • Happy anniversary. You two are still the best argument for doing it properly.

  • Same sofa, same person, still happy. Well done both of you.

  • Happy anniversary. We are glad you found each other before we had to say anything.

From family

  • Happy anniversary. Watching you two has been one of the good bits.

  • We are proud of you both. Happy anniversary from all of us.

  • Another year, and still the couple we call first. Happy anniversary.

Funny

  • Happy anniversary. Same again next year, please.

  • Still putting up with each other. Impressive. Happy anniversary.

  • Happy anniversary. You have outlasted three of our kitchen appliances and all of our houseplants.

What to leave out

Do not mention how long they have been together unless you are certain of the number. A wrong year in ink is hard to ignore.

Avoid advice about marriage. They have been doing it longer than the card has been in the post.

Do not repeat the words on the card front. If the design says happy anniversary, your message can say something else.

One card from everyone

Friends, family, people from both sides. One link, and it opens on the morning.

  1. 01

    Set the anniversary date.

    The card opens that morning. Nobody sees it early.

  2. 02

    Send one link.

    Share it in the group chat or by text. Each person signs once, in a browser.

  3. 03

    It arrives on the day.

    Every message, every name. They read it together.

Questions

What is a group anniversary card?

One card that everyone signs from a link, rather than a single card from one person. It opens on the anniversary date you set.

When should I start the card?

A few days before the date is enough. Set the opening date and share the link, and people sign in their own time.

Does it work for any anniversary year?

Yes. Whether it is a first anniversary or a fiftieth, the card opens on the date you set and holds everyone's messages.

Somebody has a day coming up.
