My wife and I recently celebrated our 10 year anniversary. It was a special day for us and we wanted to share it with all of our family and friends. We planned way ahead to make sure we would have plenty of time to organize and entertain all of our guests.

We were married on St. Patrick’s Day and figured we would celebrate our anniversary on the following weekend. I decided to have a barbecue and set up horse shoes. For the evening, we would have a bonfire in the back.

I came up with the idea to buy sky lanterns. I found where to buy sky lanterns, and I purchased some white sky lanterns.  I made sure the sky lanterns next day delivery was shipped. They arrived the next day and I was very excited to include these with our anniversary festivities.

The day of our party arrived and there were a lot of people who came to help us celebrate. The weather was perfect and it was truly a glorious day for our party. The barbecue came out great. Unfortunately my horse shoe game was not so great as I got stomped by all of people my pastor! It was all great fun and we all had a great time talking and reminiscing about the last ten years.

After dinner we got the fire started in the back yard as the temperature dropped significantly after sunset. So there we all were bundled up in coats and blankets and talking while the fire kept us all cozy and warm. I decided it was a good time to get out the sky lanterns, I had another friend help me bring them out to the back garden by the fire.

I told my wife how happy I had been being married to her and I asked her to help me light our night sky lanterns. We lit each one and they slowly drifted away it was a moving sight as these sky lanterns made an awesome spectacle in the starry night sky.

Every one cheered and we were so happy it was the perfect end to our perfect anniversary celebration. If you are planning a anniversary or wedding I would tell you to pick some of these wonderful sky lanterns up they definitely will become the highlight of your celebration and make the whole moment much more memorable.
