Anniversary Cards

Post by Lanark Lass »

Does anyone know where to buy special wedding anniversary cards? I need to find cards for silver and diamond weddings.

Have looked in a couple of places in Argeles but not seen any. Or is this not a special thing in France?

It's dire here trying to find cards although birthday cards are getting better. I use Moonpig or Funky Pigeon for mine. When I used to go the UK more frequently I used to shop there and buy the cards needed a year ahead!!!! The French and Spanish rarely send cards, we don't even receive birthday or Christmas cards from my husband's family in Barcelona!

Anniversary cards

Information for anyone else who may have anniversary cards to send:

I eventually found a few on the bottom shelf of the card display in the big Intermarch in Argeles.

There were 2 types - the first comes with a dial which you turn to the relevant anniversary.

The second, which I bought, comes with a sheet of stickers from which you choose the anniversary you want and stick it on.

Maybe a marketing opportunity for someone?
