Coming up with the perfect anniversary wishes for a friend on an important wedding anniversary can be really difficult. The basic sentiments are simple. Of course you want them to enjoy long life, renewed love, and domestic bliss. Finding a way to express your anniversary wish without sounding cliché, however, can be pretty hard.

What I didn't realize, however, was how much harder wedding anniversary wishes are when it's your own anniversary. For friends, I can usually find an anniversary card that adequately expresses my emotions. With my wife, however, there simply seems to be too much to say. We have spent so many years together and have been through so many good and bad things that I couldn't find the words to say how much I loved her.
