Foods at Anniversary Parties
If you're the one giving the big bash, remember to have Champagne (for the champagne toast) and a Wedding Cake so the happy couple can relive the moment many years ago. One big trend with anniversary cakes is to have the baker replicate the one the couple had at their wedding. It adds a great touch. But if you can't replicate it maybe you can just use the cake topper they had.
