What is a 40 year wedding anniversary called?

A 40 year wedding anniversary is known as the Ruby Anniversary. This significant milestone is named after the ruby gemstone, which symbolises the passion, love and enduring strength of a long-lasting relationship. The vibrant red colour of the ruby represents the deep affection and energy that has sustained the couple through four decades of marriage. While actual ruby-themed gifts are classic, many people choose presents that are ruby-coloured or hold personal meaning.

How do you celebrate 40 years of marriage?

Celebrating 40 years of marriage is a remarkable occasion and there are many meaningful ways to mark this special milestone. You might reflect on your shared journey by revisiting where you had your first date or memorable holiday. If you’re a friend of the couple, hosting a ruby-themed party with red decorations and a special cake is another wonderful way to celebrate. 

For a more intimate celebration, consider renewing your vows in a ceremony with close friends and family. Finally, creating a memory book with photos and mementoes from your 40 years together can also be a touching way to rejoice in your everlasting partnership.

What is a traditional ruby anniversary gift?

While ruby-themed gifts are the traditional choice, as long as your gift fits your partner's or the couple’s interests and comes from the heart you can’t go wrong. Here are a few ruby anniversary present ideas to get you started:

♥ If they enjoy a celebratory toast, why not consider a bottle of bubbly, customised with the couple’s names and anniversary date.
