The truth is that the 25th wedding Anniversary is all about the silver. For guests who have cards for the couple use a basket with a handle wrapped in silver ribbon with 25 silver dollars dangling around the rim. The basket becomes one of the gifts.
Take the time to have the silver trays engraved with the date of the event.
You can rent a "tent" cover to put some of your tables outside and use tables and chairs from your local masonic hall. Make a small donation and pick-up and return them yourself of course.

For that amount of people I would suggest maybe getting a room at your local convention center. That way, no matter what the waether is you can pull it off. Decorate it in some type of theme and have the guests come dressed as part of the theme. Such as a masquerade ball/costume party, outddors (have everyone dress like hunters or campers, or something like that. You will have more than enough room to have both the dance and dinner.
I know here the rooms that can hold 400 people go for about 80 an hour thats not too bad. I say, look around though, you will find out what you are looking for if you investigate. Good luck!

Have people bring their own wedding photos and post them. It's fun to see how people change over the years. For my parents anniversary we recreated a "Newlywed game" It was fun and entertaining for everyone. We had questions and several other friends participated. We down loaded the music from the show. Then we gave away funny prizes. It was so much fun.

Are you repeating vows? That would be a nice addition. Set up a small area where the two of you can stand before this mass of people & say, "If I had the choice, I'd do it all again......with you"

If you have a nice voice you could sing for her, or write her a poem. Renew your vows. Something that shows her you love her just as much as you ever did.
