As with each wedding anniversary that you celebrate has a definite theme, such as paper for the first year through to Diamonds for the 60th anniversary, so do most anniversaries have a colour theme, you might like to think about decorating your venue to tie in with this theme. This could just mean coloured tablecloths, napkins and a few flowers and balloons, or something a lot more elaborate.
