How to celebrate
your 23rd anniversary
The best anniversary celebrations are intentional. These work at every scale — afternoon to week-long.
Start the day together
Wake up slowly. Breakfast in bed. No phones until noon. The most underrated anniversary move.
Write a letter
One handwritten letter each — sealed, exchanged at dinner. What this year meant. What you see. What you feel.
Take a photo together
One photo per year. On this day, every year. Add this year's to the collection. By year twenty it's extraordinary.
Mark it with a toast
At some point in the day — over dinner, in bed, wherever — make a proper toast. Use one of the ones below.
Return somewhere meaningful
The restaurant from year one. The place you got engaged. The city you first visited together. Go back.
Log it in the app
Use the Relationship App to capture this day — in photos, notes, and mood. Future you will be grateful.
Questions to ask each other
on your 23rd anniversary
The best anniversary gift is genuine attention. Set aside an hour, put the phones away, and go through these one by one.
What do you think our relationship says to other people about love?
What's something beautiful on the surface that has even more depth underneath for you in our relationship?
