Anniversaries

Anniversaries are among the most "special" of special events. They mark points in time that cause us to reflect on the joy of friends, families, and loved ones. The Atlanta Sound Machine professional disc jockey service is honored to be able to share in these events with you. Through our music and entertainment services we will create a memory for you to cherish always.

Many couples enjoy honoring the day they were married with a party, even as early as their fifth anniversary. Family, close friends, members of the wedding party and church members are generally among those invited. Depending on the size and formality of the occasion, the celebrations may be held at home, at a restaurant, club, church, home of a friend or family member, or any other venue the pair enjoys.

When a couple reaches their silver (25th) or golden (50th) anniversary, the pair may wish to hold a larger or more dignified and formal affair. Although a couple can organize the event themselves, it is more commonly hosted by friends, grown children, or other family members who recognize the couple's dedication and commitment to one another.

Anniversaries are considered movable celebrations. If you are planning a party for yourself or someone else, it isn't necessary to hold the event on the exact wedding anniversary date. It is perfectly acceptable to hold it the following weekend. Even a party several weeks after the actual date has passed is acceptable, especially if it is more convenient for the honorees.

There is a traditional gift/theme and modern suggestions for every wedding anniversary, based on the number of years a couple has been married. Although there has been some revision and updating, experts generally agree on the traditional symbols for wedding anniversaries. Their modern counterparts were devised for those seeking a fresh alternative to the conventional icons. The symbols, traditional or modern, may help hosts choose a theme for the couple's anniversary party and can aid guests in choosing appropriate gifts.
