Words by MAggie F. Francisco

Celebrations have transformed in the last decade. It’s no longer just weddings, birthdays, childbirth, and anniversaries. Today, we clearly like to commemorate milestones—as is evident by the countless celebrations that lead up to these momentous occasions.

Weddings now have engagement parties, bridal showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties, welcome dinners, and post-wedding brunches. New moms celebrate with gender reveals and baby showers—or a baby sprinkle, if it’s her second child. And the list goes on: housewarming parties, half-birthday parties, and pet birthday parties.

Whether it's something for your loved one, your friend, or just a simple treat for yourself, you can celebrate moments with Rustans.com and mark the important milestones in your life by shopping for the best gifts on our Anniversary Sale on August 27-28.
