Anniversaries are happy moments that come once in a while, usually after every 365 days. It is a day that commemorates a past event that occurred on the same date. The date is remembered and celebrated because of how special and notable the event that occurred on that date was.
While there are so many anniversaries that people like to celebrate, the most common anniversaries that are celebrated around the world are birthdays, marriage and wedding anniversaries, death anniversaries, etc. Aside from gifts, people who are celebrating usually look forward to receiving messages that either wish them well on that date or console them for their loss. It is important that you put some thought into the message you send and not just forward some generic messages on that day. You should also make sure that the message you send has a personal touch to it. Here are some best happy anniversary messages and wishes that will interest you.
How Should A Happy Anniversary Be Sent?
Thanks to the different ways of communication available today, Happy Anniversary messages can be sent through different means, including text messages, social media, Whatsapp, email, letters, cards, and notes. However, like any other thing of good intention you would want to do for anyone, it is best that some effort is put into it to show that the messages come from a sincere place. This is to say that sending a Happy Anniversary message to your wife via text would not carry as much weight as sending a card or letter along with some flowers and/or chocolates.
For those sending to other people, the channels through which you send the message also matters. A Happy Anniversary message sent via direct message on social media does not carry as much weight as a personal message to their phone.

Is It Correct To Say “Happy Wedding Anniversary”?
While a few people might say Happy Marriage Anniversary, the usual greeting is Happy Wedding Anniversary or just Happy Anniversary. Both greetings are equally acceptable. It is more common to hear people wish others a Happy Wedding Anniversary because the wedding is the ceremonial observance of becoming a couple. It is the specific ceremony that unites two people in marriage and is the day that is often celebrated in the following years. Marriage simply refers to the relationship of the two people involved.
When Is The Best Time to Wish Someone a Happy Anniversary?
A Happy Anniversary message will be better received when it is sent on the day in question. Sending it prior to that day will only show that it is something you think about, are very aware of, and do not take for granted. It will, however, be unable to elicit the emotions that would have otherwise been there when the celebrant is reading it on that particular day.
It is out of the question to send the message after the day as it only shows that the celebrant is an afterthought. Although some might say that it is better sent late than never.
