Advice on What to Get For an Anniversary Gift For Her
There are endless ideas when it comes to what to get as an anniversary gift for her, which is why we've put together this handy guide. It covers all kinds of hobbies and budgets, so you're bound to find a special something to show her how much you care.
Consider a practical present, such as a gadget or home-buy, pampering products to give her the gift of relaxation, or something that she can eat or drink always goes down well.
"Our personalised pieces or engraved collections make a great anniversary gift as we’ve seen more and more personalised gifting over the past few years, as people want to gift more meaningful pieces, or jewellery that can be treasured and passed down through generations," explains Lily & Roo founder Brittany Preston.
She continues, "You can always go for the typical traditional wedding anniversary gifts, however, these can sometimes be hard to get right.
"You can’t go wrong with meaningful jewellery made with precious metals, and with our engraving service, adding dates or initials makes it that little bit more special. One of my favourite pieces are our best-selling huggie hoop pearl earrings as they can be worn two ways with the detachable pearl."
What Are Good 1 Year Anniversary Gifts For Her?
If you've been married for one year you'll naturally want to mark this occasion with an extra special present. The traditional first wedding anniversary gift is paper, which symbolises the blank page your new marriage gives you in which you can write future chapters of your life together. There are tons of lovely gift ideas in our guide, including prints, notebooks, and even a rose made from newspaper.
The modern first year wedding anniversary gift is clocks - very fitting as the clock hits one year of you being married. Consider watches, wall clocks, or a unique piece of jewellery.
Not yet married? If your relationship is still fairly new, you might not want to go too over the top for your one year anniversary. A gift experience for couples is a great idea as it's something you can do together to make even more memories.
What is a Good 2 Year Anniversary Gift For Her?
Traditionally, you would give a gift that nods to cotton as your second wedding anniversary gift, with presents such as clothing and homeware being popular. Cotton represents the strength, weave and comfort between two people. It is sturdier than the first wedding anniversary gift of paper but is still flexible as your bond is getting stronger.
If you gave a sentimental gift for your first year, you might want to opt for something more practical this time - how about an Egyptian cotton duvet set or a cotton scented fragrance.
