Congratulations on your 50th Wedding Anniversary Stephen and Jeanne xx

A special Love Heart Bespoke Artwork, with love from all the gang xxx

This collection captures the passion, happiness and shared history of two people, their friends and family.

Inspired by amulets and milagros (ancient symbols of love and protection) the heart symbols reference local places, landmarks, discovered details and histories. The expressive brushstrokes are inspired by map references and symbols, as if taking a journey.

Fragments of music scores, architectural elements, patterns, historical information, recipes, ancient script and maps tell the story of a
love between 2 people that has grown over time.

For Grandpa and Granny Jeanny,

We’re all here to say,

Happy 50th anniversary,

On this special day.

At Bosmore Farm, your lovely home,

Where we all love to be,

Full of laughs and happy times,

And cups of tea!

You built a big family,

Full of love and fun,

With four amazing sons,

And nine grandchildren!

Samuel, Alfie, Stella, Orla,

Cleo, Jackson too,

Wilfie, Isla, little Roly—

All look up to you.

Grandpa loves skiing,

Fast down the snow,

Lighting big bonfires,

Watching them glow.

He sorts out all the bins,

Keeps everything just right,

And tells the very best stories

When we go to bed at night.

He travels to new places,

Near and far away,

And works hard in the garden

Helping things grow each day.

Granny Jeanny is wonderful,

The best host we know,

With delicious food and warmth

That always seems to glow.

She picks the nicest clothes for us,

So we all look our best,

And brings us all together

For fun and happy rest.

With a few four-legged friends

Who’ve joined along the way,

Your home is full of love and life

Each and every day.

You’ve shown us what love is,

Kind, strong, and true,

And we are so lucky

To learn it from you.

So here’s to 50 years,

And many more to be,

At Bosmore Farm together,

One big happy family.
