They come around once year and heaven forbid that you forget one! Wedding anniversaries a time to let your partner know that they are special. It's a chance show your romantic side. Some people like to traditional and follow the set rules for anniversary presents, from paper for the first anniversary diamonds for the sixtieth. It's a long time to wait diamonds. It would be an achievement to follow the anniversary presents list every single year. You may want to use own imagination and knowledge of your partner, perhaps honoring crystal, silver, pearl, ruby, gold, and diamonds for the landmark years.
The anniversary doesn't have to be celebrated anything tangible. Anniversary presents could include a special outing experience. Perhaps you could organize a trip a hot air balloon or a hang gliding lesson. You could put together your own romantic day, a champagne picnic in a row boat on the river. That will probably be treasured more expensive earrings or cuff links.
If you don't want to organize something yourself, you can buy anniversary presents in the form experience days, where the whole day is set and you just enjoy. There's everything swimming with sharks (divorce is less dangerous), to a day in a health spa. If it's difficult to decide something you both like, you could take it in turns to choose.
There some presents that can't be gift wrapped but make a wonderful statement. Anniversary presents just need a bit lateral thinking. A tree can be planted in your partner's name, maybe a place that means a lot to both of you. You could go beyond earth and name star for your beloved. That star will carry that name forever and there will be a certificate of registration, so one can take the name away. When you promised them the moon and the stars, you sort of did it! While you're it, you could have a favorite song played the radio.
If you do want something that your partner open and you can see the delight in their eyes when they unwrap their anniversary presents, you could buy a piece of original art. Make sure it's to their taste and just yours. A painting, a sculpture, or antique that your partner mentioned or hinted at! �not compose your own poem? Romantic anniversary presents don't come more personal than that. your talents don't lie in that direction, buy a book of love poems to be on the safe side. You can always rely on authors such �Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
