Sensible Ways to Plan a 40th Wedding Anniversary Party

Since rubies are associated with this anniversary year, fresh strawberries are the perfect way to bring out the brilliance of red rubies! Start by welcoming guests with a framed message (4) personalized with the names and dates of the celebrants. Bring in gold cutlery and elegant dinnerware (3) coupled with simple floral decorations (5). Choose light or bright floral accents and centerpieces—it’s all up to you! For the toast of the party, serve a romantic rose champagne (2) in pretty champagne flutes that are the perfect complement to an anniversary cake (1) made with strawberry meringue buttercream and topped with fresh strawberries and thyme.
