Anniversary Gifts Ideas for Your Spouse
 
 
 

Is your calendar sending you notifications that your wedding anniversary is coming up? Does that reminder send you into a spiral about what to do to celebrate and how to show your partner all that these last 365 days has meant to you? We know the feeling, so we wanted to share some of our ideas with you for you to book mark for when you’re ready!

I want to start by saying that a heart felt card is never a bad idea! If that is the only gift you can give, great. If it sets the tone for the main gift, even better!

  1. A custom sketch

Did you know that I not only sketch AT weddings, but I can also sketch from one of your favorite wedding photos? Order a custom sketch for a new perspective on your wedding day, proposal, or engagement shoot, and more art for your partner to hang on your walls! Also, in case you weren’t aware, the “traditional” first anniversary gift is paper. So there you go!

2. Wedding Cake remade (not frozen from a year prior)

I’m not sure who decided that the best wedding tradition is to eat year-old frozen cake, but I would like to request an upgrade. Connect with the bakery that made your wedding cake and have them remake the top tier so you can enjoy the cake as much (if not more) than you did on your wedding day. 

3. Add on to the rings

Nothing says love like fine jewelry! Kidding (but not really). Add to the stack with a new ring - just like trees gain rings to show their age, so can your marriage! 

4. Private Picnic

If you have been on TikTok you have seen how beautiful and romantic a private picnic can be! Your partner is bound to ask if you are going to re-propose (AKA this would be great to combine with the updated ring stack). If you live in NY state we have a great connection- The Garden of Era Luxury Picnics which you can find on Instagram here: @thegardenoferapicnics.  If you live in the DC metro area this is the host for you: Luxe Picnics @luxepicnics.d.m.v

5. services

If you’re less of a “physical presents” and more of a “doing” kind of couple, here’s a suggestion: house cleaning services while you take them out to their favorite lunch and spa. Nothing makes an “act of service” love language spouse melt like doing something that they probably would have had to do on their own. Extra points if your spouse doesn’t have to decide who, what, where, or when!

Which of these anniversary gifts would you like most??

Let us know in the comments below what your favorite gift you’ve received was! We’d love to hear from you.
