Son’s wedding date is same day as brides parents anniversary

Hi, Frida! This makes the occasion all the more special! I like yours ideas- I would absolutely introduce them at the reception! If there will be dancing, maybe add in a special dance for them to their wedding song? I'm looking forward to what other community members come up with!

View Quoted Comment I agree with having them do an anniversary dance. Perhaps even to the original song they danced to.

Your other ideas are super sweet too.

I think doing a congratulations announcement at the wedding and tying it in with the couples wedding date and future luck and happiness and maybe the 2 couples doing a dance together would be enough...the bouquet, to me, seems a bit much, especially since you are doing the glasses.

That's a really cute idea, having it be their original first dance song!

I think a song is more than enough, keep it to maybe half the song? I would personally prefer an announcement with a round of applause and that's that. As a guest I wouldn't want to sit through another spotlight dance. I think a bouquet is overkill as this isn't their wedding. I'm sure the couple knew they should do something if they were going to share the date but it's important to remember the focus of the event.

This makes me so excited! My fiancé are getting married on my parents wedding anniversary! In honor of their anniversary I am going to play the song they did their first dance too. For the four of us.

I would say stick to the dance and leave it at that. As someone who is getting married on my birthday, I specifically told everyone that FH can do something small if he chooses, but I don’t want anyone else to do anything during the wedding. That day is about or marriage and celebrating that. I also don’t want our guests to have to sit through more things than they already do..I want people up on the dance floor the whole time!

My fh .. and i are getting married on his parents anniversary and giving them a dance ..

I attended a wedding once where the brides parents were celebrating an anniversary and the priest made an announcement during mass and said a special prayer.

I got married on my parents anniversary, and my in-laws was a few days later. We surprised them and had them introduced to their wedding songs and let it play for about 45-60 seconds while they danced to it. We didn’t announce it, but of course they knew, as did our family, and their friends.

Hi! Similar situation was gonna happen to us. Our original wedding date was Feb 8 and my fiancé told me his parents anniversary was on that day. He wanted to cut an extra cake for them and I said no. We eventually changed the date for other purposes, but I was kinda annoyed. Yes it would have been special, but I just felt like it was our day for us. However, fiancé and in laws were not upset. They just laughed lol.

We are getting married the day after my parents' 49th wedding anniversary - we're doing a special anniversary dance that starts out with just them dancing to their wedding song, then inviting any other couples who want to dance to the floor after the first minute.

My wedding date is my FH’s parents anniversary date. When we called our parents to tel them the date we picked , his dad was the first call. He laughed took his ring off and was like yeah that’s our wedding date. But they’re fine with it and are happy

My FH and I will be getting married June 20th, 2022. We wanted June 18th but afterwards booking our dates and paying our deposit the booking agent later told me that our date wasn’t available. They offered us the 20th and my fiancé excitedly excepted that day saying it was only two days afterwards the date that we wanted. Anyways afterwards thinking about the date I realized it was my parents’ anniversary day. It seems weird to me and I feel selfish or something 😓 I just want everyone to be happy
