Anniversary Celebration

Who Should Participate?

The Anniversary Celebration is an opportunity to honor long term marriage. Only couples celebrating these special anniversaries in 2025 are invited to register: 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 or more years.

Families are welcome to attend again with the couples celebrating their milestone wedding anniversary this year!

(Please Note: Once you have reached your fifty-year anniversary, you are invited to participate in the celebration every year thereafter.)

Why Should You Participate?

To be honored by the Catholic Community, to renew your commitment to your wedding vows and to serve as an affirmation of love and commitment which are integral to Christian Marriage.

When and Where?

More information on the 2025 Anniversary Celebration to come.

What Does the Celebration Involve?

There is a Eucharistic Liturgy during which the Bishop will facilitate a renewal of commitment to the wedding vows and impart a special blessing. Certificates will be provided to couples along with materials and instructions for participating. A light reception will follow the celebration in the Parish Life Center.

Couples will also be recognized in a digital slideshow that will display names, parish, and years married. We invite participants to either upload or mail a photo of their wedding day. If sending by mail, please do not send an original.

What is the Cost?

There is no cost to participate in the Anniversary Celebration. However, donations to support the many programs of the Office of Family Life are always gladly accepted.

Special 25th and 50th anniversary milestone stemless wine glasses are available to purchase! With a donation of $50 or more, you can receive a free anniversary milestone stemless wine glass. Glasses can be purchased through the registration form.
