Above the 75th Wedding Anniversary
A few wedding anniversary lists have included details above the 75th anniversary both on the modern and traditional side. I suspect these Anniversaries are extremely rare. However given an increase in life spans these may start to be used more.
If you know of anyone celebrating an anniversary above the 75th Anniversary we would love to know. Please mail us at Anniversary Ideas Team.

Few couples celebrate more than the 80th anniversary and only 1 couple have achieved a 90 year marriage!

In Britain the longest marriage on record was a couple from Berkshire who celebrated their 83rd Wedding Anniversary together in February 2006 (News story here).
