45th Anniversary Celebration Ideas

Here are some fine ideas which you could use to celebrate a 45th wedding anniversary.

• Vow-Renewal Ceremony: A perfect, unique way to celebrate your 45 year wedding anniversary would be to organize a vow renewal ceremony. As the name suggests, this ceremony is all about renewing the vows that you took during your marriage 45 years ago.
  
  
• Dinner: Go out for a dinner in one of your favorite restaurants to celebrate your 45th wedding anniversary. This is a perfect celebration idea if both of you want to spend the day alone. Make it really special by choosing a place that you went to in the early stages of your relationship, maybe even the place you proposed.
  
  
• Cruise: Get away from it all and take your spouse, or send your parents on a romantic cruise to a once in a lifetime destination.
  
  
• Party: If you are interested in sharing your 45th anniversary with friends and family, nothing would be better than throwing a magnificent party.

45 Year Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas

• Ornaments: Be it a pendant, chain, pair of earrings or bangles, a gift of any ornament can make the memories of your 45th anniversary last for years to come for your sweetheart.
  
  
• Photo Frames: A photo frame is considered an ideal gift item for 45th wedding anniversaries, as they allow you to display, show off, and remember some of the wonderful moments spent with your partner.
  
  
• Homemade Paintings: Children can gift a homemade painting to their parents, for their 45th anniversary celebration. Paintings, sculptures, or any handcrafted item, when made by hand from the children, will always be cherished by parents on any anniversary.
  
  
• Homemade Cake: Sometimes, a sweet simple gesture can mean much more than the purchase of an expensive gift. Creating a home baked cake, and decorated with things to celebrate your forty fifth wedding anniversary, is always a beautiful gift. Add a handmade card for a nice touch. Serve it as dessert after a romantic dinner for two on your anniversary.

45th Wedding Anniversary Party Ideas
