80+ Happy Anniversary Messages and Quotes to Celebrate Your Love

Anniversaries are a time for couples to reflect on the past, reconnect, and get excited for the future. Not only that, but some researchers suggest that celebrating your anniversary can actually help your marriage last longer. John Gottman, PhD, of the Gottman Institute, maintains that for relationships to survive, "positive sentiment override" must be established, meaning that the positives must outweigh the negatives. And according to Gottman, celebrating a marriage anniversary is a great way to help secure that balance. So read on for our list of happy anniversary messages you can use in a homemade card, with a bouquet of flowers, or even in a sweet text. Whether you're celebrating your friends, your family, or your own anniversary, we've got you covered.
