A Couple Celebrates their 48th anniversary with DQ®
Posted by Lisa Y under A Smile and a Story® on
A customer recently contacted me about a cool DQ® memory he shares with his wife. The husband and wife celebrate every single wedding anniversary by sharing a DQ Banana Split.
It all started when the couple eloped to Michigan from Cleveland, Ohio, and after all the costs for the wedding license, filling up the VW Beetle, etc., they only had 50 cents when they left to return home. They stopped at a DQ store in Coldwater, Mich., and shared a Banana Split.
They love to relive that experience every year, although that 50 cent price tag has increased a bit. Do you have any special wedding anniversary traditions?

My husband and I LOVE Dairy Queen and especially your Dairy Queen cakes, so when we were planning the renewal of our vows for our 25th wedding anniversary, I knew just what I was going to do. I told him he proposed to me 25 years ago and now I would propose to him. So I got a heart-shaped Dairy Queen cake, of course, with “Will You Marry Me?” written on it! It was the BEST Dairy Queen cake ever!
P.S. He said “YES”!
Patricia, thank you for sharing your delightful story with us! Congratulations on 25 years of marriage, and on getting a YES when you proposed!
“Shove it in your mouth” – What a horrible line in the commercial. Puts me right off the ad, product and DQ. Could have just said Put.
You can tell me to go Shove it but not a nice way to Put it.
