75th year Wedding Anniversary

The 75th wedding anniversary is an important milestone that should be recognized and celebrated.

According to traditions, 75 years means ‘gilt-edged’ because it goes back to the days when gold was used as currency. This is why 75th wedding anniversaries are often seen as ‘platinum.’ The traditional 75th anniversary gift is Platinum themed.

Any 75th year anniversary celebration should be done in grand style with the whole family present, even children and grandchildren

A 75th year anniversary is a celebration of love that has lasted for three quarters of a century. This traditional seventy-fifth anniversary gift idea is all about platinum—a metal used in wedding rings, often given as gifts on this special occasion. However, some modern couples may opt for the 75th year diamond theme instead.

Our favourite gift for such a massive celebration is the platinum record gift. There are plenty of these gifts available and if you go to etsy they have a great selection, all with unique gift ideas. If you can find out, and as an added special touch, see if either of the couple can remember their wedding day and what their first dance was to. If you can reproduce this on the platinum record then that would be a beautiful touch.
