What to put in an anniversary song for parents
Just jot down the little scenes that only you notice. We'll turn them into verses.
The familiar spot
Holding hands in the big shop, the aisle where they always meet.
The playful fight
Bickering about the sat-nav, the route that never seems right.
The secret phrase
Dad's motto 'yes dear' and Mum's laugh 'his selective hearing'.
The quiet love
Kids' thank-you for making love look ordinary and easy: even when it isn't.
A worked example
Meet Sue & Trevor, our example parents
Sue & Trevor aren't real, but many couples are just like them. Below is the kind of detail families send us, and the song we built from it.
Sue & Trevor
Still holding hands at the big shop, still arguing about the sat-nav, still slow dancing at other people's weddings.
- Holding hands in the superstore aisle
- Sat-nav debates that end in laughter
- Stealing a waltz at every wedding they attend
- Dad's catch-phrase: 'yes dear', Mum's reply: 'his selective hearing'
What their children told us
It's Mum and Dad's anniversary. They're the couple everyone measures against: still holding hands at the big shop, still bickering about the sat nav, still slow dancing at other people's weddings. Dad says the secret is 'yes dear'. Mum says it's 'his selective hearing'. From their three kids: thank you for making love look ordinary and easy. It isn't.

Verse 1
Trolley for two down the cereal aisleSue holds the list, Trevor holds her smileStill arguing soft with the sat nav voiceMissing the turn like it's always a choice
Verse 2
He says the secret is two little words"Yes dear" gets said til it's barely heardShe says the truth if you ask her twiceIt's his selective hearing, that's the price
Chorus
You made it look ordinary and easyForty odd years and you're still the same tuneHolding hands at the big Tesco checkoutSlow dancing wrong at some stranger's JuneSue and Trevor, still going steadyWe watch you and we understandThis is what love is, plain and alreadyWritten in the way you take each other's hand
Verse 3
At someone else's wedding, first slow songYou're up before the couple, dancing alongNobody taught you, you just always knewThat's the quiet secret held between the two of you
Bridge
From the three of us who learned by watching youWe thought love was hard until we saw it throughOrdinary mornings, bickering and kindThat's the kind of love that's hardest to find
Chorus
You made it look ordinary and easyForty odd years and you're still the same tuneHolding hands at the big Tesco checkoutSlow dancing wrong at some stranger's JuneSue and Trevor, still going steadyWe watch you and we understandThis is what love is, plain and alreadyWritten in the way you take each other's hand

Before you ask
Questions, answered
Practical details for making sure the song arrives on time and feels just right.
What should I include for an anniversary song for parents?
The little scenes that only you notice: a favourite aisle, a recurring joke, a shared phrase, and a heartfelt thank-you from the kids. A few sentences are enough.
Will the song be ready before the anniversary dinner?
Your song is delivered within 24 hours of ordering. As long as you respond to the lyric draft promptly, it will arrive well before the celebration.
Can we each add our own memories?
Absolutely. Gather details from all the children, grandchildren or even friends. We blend them into one cohesive lyric.
What music style works best for parents?
Acoustic pop or folk ballads let personal stories breathe, while a jazz swing captures the dance-floor moments. Choose one, or select Surprise me.
Do I get to approve the lyrics?
Yes. You read and approve every line before we record, and one free revision is included. Nothing is set to music until you're happy.
