How to Make an Engagement Anniversary Special?

You don’t need a big party to make this day special. A personal touch means more than a big gesture. Look back at the proposal and revisit one small detail from that day.

A handwritten note, a favorite meal, or a quiet toast can make the evening memorable. Try this formula: “Happy engagement anniversary, [name]! [Something about their proposal]. [Wish for their future].”

• Keep it honest. Simple, true words often mean more than fancy ones.
