It is a deep purple flower that can bring any party space to life. Place silver vases full of irises around the room or place a single iris next to each place setting. Check your local florist for quotes on arrangements! Alternatively, you can purchase artificial irises.

Any debris, dust, moisture, or natural oils can interfere with the adhesive, weakening the bond. If soap solution has spilled and dried on the containers and these are not cleaned, the stickers won't stick or they will start to pill off right after applying them. - Apply the center of the label first and then work out toward the edges. This reduces some of the tension on the ends of the label which will help it stay down. - Use pressure when sticking the labels to your surface. Our products are pressure-sensitive, so more pressure equates to a stronger bond. ♥♥♥ HOW TO ORDER ♥♥♥ ***PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING: This listing is for LABELS ONLY, containers ARE NOT included*** 1. On the dropdown menu: - Choose foil color or black ink - Choose the sticker size and color you want - Choose Quantity: Our stickers come in sheets, price shown in this listing is for 1 sheet of 30 stickers.

17. Famous Couples

Give each person playing a post-it with one half of a famous couple written on it and put it on their back. No one should know who is taped to their back. To complete the game, the person must find out who they are. Other guests can hint at who they are without saying the celebrity’s name. Once a guest thinks they have figured out who they are, they have to find their partner.

Examples of pairs that can be used are Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, Sonny and Cher, Romeo and Juliet, Adam and Eve, and even Barbie and Ken. Once everyone thinks they’ve found their partner, be sure to double-check the results for accuracy.

18. Never Have I Ever

Someone will make up a list of questions of common things that may have occurred to the guests and the couple. For example, you can ask if you ever ran out of gas, flew in an airplane, got kicked out of a restaurant, etc. Have people line up at the starting line. When a question is asked and a person is guilty of the thing asked, they take a step forward. See who can make it across the finish line first. These games make everyone feel young again! Washi tape would make a good line for starting and finishing because it should not damage the floor and comes in so many colors and designs.

19. 25th Anniversary Picture Symbols

Have a list of the anniversary symbols, a dry erase board, and markers handy. Each person will pick a symbol to draw on the board for the others to guess. You can’t write any words, only draw pictures. The person who guesses correctly gets the next turn.

20. 25 Questions

Instead of 20 questions let everyone have 25! The topic should be events in the couple's life. Reward your guests with custom M&M's in a drawstring bag.
