Great Anniversary gift idea? 9
My fiance and I are going to be celebrating our first anniversary this month (yes I know, I waited until the last minute:) ) and I was hoping that someone could offer me some great gift ideas. I was thinking of getting him a really beautiful set of cufflinks to wear at our wedding. He is a very sentimental/emotional guy, not big into sports (scrapbooks are out, he already made one for me). Thank you!!
Luv2Answer–Despite the fact that I should in no way be defending my relationship to you, who obviously has some sort of bitterness/bad history, I feel that I should clarify that we have known each other for many years -this is our the anniversary of officially declaring our relationship to be a romantic one. We will be married in June of 2009. Please, answerers stick to the question and refrain from condemning my relationship. Thanks : )
Don’t worry! We have some nice reader that will give you the fantastic solution!



Anniversary as in you are getting married soon and haven’t even been together a year yet? Good Luck.
My husband and I enjoy going to bed and breakfasts on our anniversaries – they are great romantic getaways without going too far from home.
well you could go to dinner on you.
mmmmm, let me think
I LOVE the cufflink idea. I’m pretty practical too though so unless he can wear them again I don’t think I would want to spend the money. Does he dress up enough for work or other events to use them again? I know my husband is a pen freak and a knife freak. LAMY (http://lamyusa.com/) makes some cool pens from $15 to hundreds. We love those.. some are very nice. The knife thing I wouldn’t do unless you know he would like it but I know I can’t go wrong buying a knife! Good luck!!
Yes, I’d go with the cufflinks or a dress ring. They are practical but something he can always keep to remind him of you. Hope your wedding is fantastic and you have a long and happy life together..
My husband told me that your fiance would have to buy a special shirt for the cuff links with two holes at the end of the sleeves. He thinks it is a nice idea.
He would be more likely to wear a tie clip than cuff links though.
Also, an engraved watch would be nice, but I don’t believe in buying men watches or shoes. I am a bit superstitious and believe giving such a gift means you will watch them walk away from you… or it will be a matter of time before they leave you. It it is a silly thing but everytime I gave these items the relationship ended…lol.
For our one year anniversary I did not want a clock or a watch! Instead we chose the paper…lol.
Try this website, since he is emotional and sentimental.
This company sells wind chimes that you can have inscribed with your feelings, blessings, and love. They have a great selection of sizes, colors, wind sail shapes, and they even give you examples of things to say if you cant think of something. Check out their illustration to, I guarantee your gift will hit his heart!
Photo turned into special art picture!
A friend of mine recommended (they converts ordinary photos into art and print them on canvas).
I sent them a photo. They made several preview samples for me. All of them were perfect. I chose one of them and order a canvas stretched print. That was awesome!
