Parents 30th Anniversary Party..
Hello,
I am planning my parents 30th wedding anniversary, it is in Feburary. I want to surprise them with a party of friends and family. I also want to surprise them with them renewing their vows with a small ceremony. I am not sure if I should do the same flowers as they had or should do a newer verison of my own? It is no problem to have it in the same church where they got married at. I am also planning to have the party/recepection there also. I am also going to have a special invites for their attendants to come also and stand with them. The other problem will be keeping the surprise a surprise. Any ideas on how to do that also? Like how to get them both to the church without knowing what is going on?
Any thoughts would be great..
Thanks

Hello again,
I found out in a round about way that my dad does not want to renew his vows. He feels that it would not be as special as the first time. So what I think I might do, is do the arrangements like what they had on their wedding day and still have the surprise party. :) I think I am also going to have the same food as their reception. I am also going to ask guest to send me a memory about my parents that stickes out in their mind or was special to that person. Then I am going to put them together as a memory book with some pictures from over the years.
Any other ideas that you guys could suggest? Please let me know...:)

Why don`t you just keep the party a surprise, keep some of the same things as they on their wedding day and throw in some thing they have "always wanted". Another idea would be to take photo from the wedding and a recent one and frame & mat it (leave the glass off)....then have everyone sign the mat when they enter the party....this can serve as a guest book. E-mail me with any other questions/comments, ok?! :):)
