As the years go by, wedding anniversaries become even more special for couples – especially when celebrating a decade of marriage. 10 year anniversaries are a milestone that deserves to be celebrated in a memorable way. Whether you’re planning a surprise for your partner or you want to get creative and involve the whole family, there are plenty of ways to mark the special occasion. We’ve rounded up the best 10 year wedding anniversary party ideas to help you plan the perfect celebration.
1. Go Glamping
Re-connect with nature and have a romantic getaway to celebrate your 10 year wedding anniversary. Go glamping in the great outdoors and enjoy a unique experience that’s far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. You could book a luxury cabin in a nearby forest and spend your days exploring the beautiful surroundings. Alternatively, you could rent a houseboat and explore the local waterways. Relaxing and enjoying the fresh air and beautiful scenery is the perfect way to celebrate.
2. Take a Trip Down Memory Lane
Take the time to reflect on the past 10 years of marriage by taking a trip down memory lane. Start by visiting the place where you first met, or the spot where you got engaged. Then plan a route that takes you past all the places that have special memories for you as a couple. You could even recreate some of the experiences you shared as you make your way around the route.
3. Plan a Special Dinner
Nothing says ‘special occasion’ like a romantic dinner. Plan a meal that includes the dishes you ate on your first date, or the food you had at your wedding. Make the evening even more special by dressing up and having a candlelit dinner at home, or make a reservation at a fancy restaurant. Top off the evening with a special toast to celebrate your 10 year wedding anniversary.
4. Have a Movie Night
Gather the family for a movie night to mark your 10 year wedding anniversary. You can watch some of your favorite films from the last decade, or pick a movie from the year you got married. If you’re feeling creative, you could even make a video montage of the best moments from your 10 year marriage, or a photo slideshow. Pop some popcorn, get comfy, and enjoy the show.
5. Plan a Group Activity
A great way to celebrate your 10 year wedding anniversary is to plan a group activity for the whole family.

6. Create a Time Capsule
A time capsule is a great way to preserve memories from your 10 year anniversary. Put together a box of items that represents your marriage, such as photos, cards, and any other mementos from the past decade. You could also include a letter to yourselves, to be opened on your 20th wedding anniversary. This is a great way to look back on your marriage and remember all the special moments you’ve shared.
7. Take a Cooking Class
Learn how to cook a new dish together and get creative in the kitchen. You could book a cooking class and learn how to make delicious dishes from around the world, or take a baking class and create sweet treats to share with your family. It’s a great way to spend some quality time together, and you’ll have the added bonus of being able to recreate the recipes at home.
8. Take a Road Trip
Explore new places and have an adventure on a road trip to celebrate your 10 year wedding anniversary. Pack the car with snacks and supplies and get ready to hit the road.

9. Visit a Theme Park
Take a break from your everyday routine and have some fun at a theme park. Enjoy the thrill of the rides, have a go at the fairground games, and treat yourself to a delicious meal. It’s the perfect way to have some quality time together, and you can make the most of your day with a few souvenirs to remember the occasion.
