For a funny anniversary ecard, put the two of you in it. On Tangy Limes, both of your real faces go on a dancing couple in a short music video and sing an original anniversary song, mouths moving to every word. The funniest picks are Power Ballad of Love, Vegas Baby Anniversary and Furever Anniversary, the one with your pets. Our view: for an anniversary, cheesy beats tasteful, and these are very cheesy.
The cheesiest ones
Power Ballad of Love is cheesy on purpose. A 1980s prom under a balloon arch, a beach at sunset, a glamour portrait studio with a laser backdrop and a wind machine, then a Las Vegas chapel with neon hearts, plastic flowers and an Elvis impersonator. If your relationship has ever involved matching outfits, this is your card. If it hasn't, this is your chance.
Vegas Baby Anniversary is the vertical one, built for phones: a casino boulevard at night, a tiny neon wedding chapel, a floor of slot machines and a hotel balcony over the Strip. It fits one or two faces, in case your partner is camera-shy or just tired. What happens in this card gets forwarded to your mother.
Furever Anniversary fits two people and two pets, so the dog finally gets credit for holding this marriage together. Dogs and cats in your photos go on dancing animals, at a candlelit restaurant and in a ballroom covered in rose petals. The cat will act unimpressed. Let it.
The ones with actual moves
Salsa Anniversary starts in a salsa club with a live trumpet section, then a backyard fiesta, a beach at sunset and an old dance hall with chandeliers. Bollywood Anniversary goes from a palace courtyard hung with marigold garlands to a city rooftop, a yellow mustard field and a stage with petals falling. Happy Gay Anniversary has a rooftop with rainbow string lights, a beach wedding arch, a kitchen with cake and a disco floor under a giant mirror ball.
Neither of you needs to know the steps. The dancers already do. You supply the faces and take the credit.
Making it funny, not just cute
Use a real photo of you both. A selfie from a trip works: faces toward the camera, mouths visible. It's a cutout of the actual photo, so if one of you is mid-blink, the singer is mid-blink, forever.
Rewrite the headline. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY is the default. STILL NOT SICK OF YOU is better. TEN YEARS, NO RETURNS is better still. YOU STILL LOAD THE DISHWASHER WRONG is technically romantic, if you squint.
Make the song about you two. If you want the lyrics to mention the honeymoon where it rained for a week, get a custom song written for the card. Say what it's about, read the words, and change any of them before you pay.
Sending it
Make it now, while they're in the other room. Add the photo, watch the preview with both faces for free, and if it's right, download it for $1.99. There's no subscription, so it won't quietly renew next anniversary. Then text it at breakfast, or put it on the TV at dinner and watch your partner try to stay annoyed at the wind machine.
