With our first anniversary just days away now, it seems that my mind has drifted to all things about anniversaries, and in particular, those couples celebrating their first anniversary. Your first anniversary is a big thing, and something to be excited about. Now you can finally eat that top layer of your wedding cake that has been sitting in your freezer for the past year. But I am excited about our first anniversary coming up. And, as always, with the first anniversary you need to consider what kind of first anniversary gift you want to give to your spouse…which can be difficult on such an occasion. I know that we had some problems coming up with ideas on what to do for our first anniversary, much less a first anniversary gift. So if you are about to celebrate your first anniversary, and need some ideas for a first anniversary gift, then here are some great ideas to help you out.
Go the Traditional Route
Traditionally, the first anniversary gift you’re supposed to give is paper. But it doesn’t say what kind of paper, so it doesn’t just have to be a card wishing your spouse a happy anniversary. So if you want to go with tradition, then get creative on what kind of paper to give. You could buy tickets for a play, sporting event or comedy club (the tickets are paper), or some nice stationary if your wife likes to write letters. Another idea for a great first anniversary gift is for the two of you to create a sort of wedding time capsule.
