Here is our situation and solution:
My wife turns 50 this September and our 30th anniversary is February 25th, 2014. We planned something big for February.
Then our grown son and daughter planned their own trip to Disney in September for FD. So we all talked and decided, why not go to Disney for my wife's birthday and go with the kids. (Actually separate reservations in separate rooms and our trips overlap.)
BUT, now that we are doing Disney in September, we can no longer do a big trip for our 30th.
Solution:
We decided, after checking the "Life's Book of Rules" and finding no prohibition , that we would celebrate both my wife's 50th and our 30th early at Disney.
We are going to make two buttons, a birthday button that she will wear on her birthday, and two buttons about our 30th anniversary that include the actual date which we are going to wear two different days. This way people will know what we are celebrating AND that it is early. Turth in advertising, so to speak.
I know this means that some CM's may actually say "Happy anniversary!" 73 times that day instead of 72, and therefore each statement of congratulations will somehow have 1/73 versus 1/72 the value and therefore slightly less pixie dust. Or maybe the CM's will reach their instructed allotment of "Happy Anniversary!" statements with us and then will stare tight lipped at the next poor couple celebrating their 75th on the actual day.

Sounds PERFECT to me!! . Hope you have a WONDERFUL family celebration!!!
