Has your significant other told you not to worry about buying a gift to celebrate this wedding anniversary? Stop, it’s a trick!

Your wedding day was the most magical time in your lives and every anniversary is an opportunity to celebrate in style. As the years pass, though, it can be a little harder to find an exciting and heartfelt gift. This quick guide will help you plan for the biggest occasions.

Paper (1-Year Anniversary)

The first anniversary is a little daunting as you’ve never done this. Moreover, it’s the one where you will both wish you could relive your wedding day. So, why not book a short break at the hotel you stayed at or take a second honeymoon? It’s a wonderful opportunity to create new memories and bring the first chapter as a married couple to an end in style.

Wood (5-Year Anniversary)

By the fifth year anniversary, your marriage is no longer in its infancy and you know each other better than ever. Little gestures like funny anniversary cards that are relatable to you as a couple are a great starting point (Ted Lasso fans will love the Roy Kent card). A romantic meal, spa weekend, or activity for couples are all great. Meanwhile, wood heart decor will brighten the home.

Aluminium (10-Year Anniversary)

A decade of marriage certainly needs celebrating. One option is to have your wedding vows turned into canvas art. Writing a love letter that reflects on the decade you’ve had while looking to the years ahead will also play a key role. Keeping those items in an aluminium tin, perhaps with a heartfelt message on it will ensure that you never forget the gift from this anniversary.

Silver (25-Year Anniversary)

The silver anniversary is arguably one of the easiest to get right. Engraved silver jewellery or home items are the perfect options. Cufflinks, bracelets, rings, and necklaces are all great options. You can top this year’s anniversary with a wedding gift box that displays a message adapted to celebrate your 25 years as a married couple. The Mr & Mrs gifts are still lovely.

Ruby (40-Year Anniversary)

Jewellery or other items featuring a ruby stone will naturally make a welcome appearance for this wedding anniversary. Red roses or homewares and art depicting roses are a great option too. They celebrate your lasting love and passion while simultaneously bringing a positive vibe to the home environment. Red clothing and accessories are great – if your spouse suits the colour.

Gold (50-Year Anniversary)

The gold anniversary is the perfect time to give gold. Heart-shaped gold necklaces or earrings are great. Meanwhile, men may love gold cufflinks or pens. Gold ornaments for the home are another popular choice. Something that sits in the bedroom will provide a reminder of your love first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Time and time again. It’s not only the big anniversaries that need your attention every year should commemorate how special you make each other feel. Heartfelt gifts, personal sentiments, and time spent together is truly the recipe for success.
