Don’t be left scratching your head when it comes to buying amazing anniversary gifts. Instead check out the brilliant suggestions for her, him, and couples you’ll find below.
For Her:
A spa day
The gift of relaxation is one that almost any woman would be glad to receive and so a spa day can be an excellent choice as an anniversary present. When selecting a spa day, try and pick a venue that has not only a hot tub but a pool to swim in as well. Adding treatments such as facials, massages and manicures is also a good idea, and choosing a premises that offers refreshments and food such as a lunch or dinner included in the package will make it even more enjoyable for the recipient.
Personalized Jewelry
Jewelry is always an excellent gift for anniversaries as it lasts a long time and can become a keepsake throughout the whole relationship. The only thing better than a carefully selected piece of jewelry is a piece that has also been personalized specifically for the recipient. Happil, there are some wonderful ways to personalize jewelry now, not only with text, but even with an image such as a picture drawn by a recipient’s child, or a paw print.
A Hamper
If you can’t possibly decide on one gift for the lady in your life, then getting a hamper filled to the brim with multiple gifts is a fabulous idea. With a hamper you can get lots of individual smaller things and bring them together as a big present. This means you can include items like her favorite foods such as chocolate, biscuits or snacks, and favorite drinks from tea bags, to soda, to champagne. Adding additional luxury items including facemasks, fluffy socks, candles and nail polish can complete the gift and show just how much you have thought about her as you have assembled it.
A High-End Handbag
Perhaps only suitable for those special anniversaries due to the price, a fancy handbag can make the perfect gift for her. However before you buy it’s a good idea to do your research on price, the latest models vs vintage and which bags have a current wait list. Yes, that’s right not all bags can be bought immediately even if you have the money, so this is a gift that you may need to plan even years in advance.
Vintage bags can also make a good choice here like the Channel flap bag which is just as popular now as it was when first released. Just be sure to buy from a recognized dealer and have any vintage bag checked and certified as such before you pay.
For Him:
Watch
Timepieces are always a great idea for anniversary gifts for men, and they are not only practical but luxurious and can be kept and passed down through the family as well. If you can afford it and it’s a big anniversary a Rolex, Tag Heuer, or Cartier may be just the trick. Although even if your budget does not stretch that far there is no need to panic as there are some wonderful mid-priced and lower-priced options to consider as well.
Cufflinks
Another jewelry item cufflinks can make an excellent choice for the man in your life because it’s so easy to get ones that match their taste and personality. First of all, think about the metal you will choose, will you opt for silver, gold, or platinum? A good rule of thumb here is to match the metals you already see him wearing most.
Then consider style. Will he prefer something simple and classic, or is he more an edgy contemporary person that would want something than stands out? Is adding a precious stone to each link a good idea or would he prefer personalisation with his monogrammed initials?
Personalized Lego MiniFigure
Last of all, we have a fun and quirky gift – the lego mini figure. Of course, there are thousands of permeations you can buy of these, so investing in one that is his favorite character from a TV show or movie can work really well.
However, if you are looking for something super cool and quirky then why not have a figure of the guy you are buying for made up? Choose a top with their favorite shirt, the trousers they always wear and match the face and hair and there you have it. You can even get it mounted along with figures of everyone else in the family or put on a keyring for a fun talking point!
For Them
A great option if you are buying for a couple’s anniversary is to get them something they can both enjoy. Happily, there are plenty of suitable couple presents you can choose from, including the suggestions you will find below.
Matching Mugs
Simple, but both practical and effective, a pair of matching mugs can make a great anniversary gift for a couple. The trick here is that this item is something they can genuinely use as well as just look at. Choose from sets like the ones Emma Bridgewater offers which are more at the high-end, or order a matching pair of fun mugs you’ve seen online.
Babysitting Vouchers
If the couple you are buying an anniversary gift for are also parents then babysitting vouchers ( or indeed pet sitting) can be the ideal gift. This is because it will allow them to go for a night out or even a weekend away without needing to worry about sorting care for their family.
This gift can work especially well when you provide it in tandem with a dinner or travel voucher perhaps gifted by a group of you.
Compass Prints
These are great for the couple who has recently moved home and are looking to make their new place more personalized. Compass prints come with a small section of map depicting the location of their new property and can be personalized with the couples or family;s names!
