  • Happily Ever AfterWords Anniversary Box

    Enhancing the tradition of "something old, something new..." the Anniversary Box is a new gift for the bride and groom. It's a keepsake filled with cards and envelopes for anniversaries 1-50. Loved ones write special messages for the wedding couple and then one card is opened each year on the couple's anniversary. It's a beautiful tradition from Richmond that stands the test of time. Visit http://www.happilyeverafterwords.com for more.
