Anniversary Gift
Ask a Question
I'm looking for some inspiration please. ️
My husband and I are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary on the 30th of September.
I'd like to buy him a gift but haven't a clue what to get for him. Does anyone have any ideas?
Happy Anniversary!!
I personally prefer gifting useful gifts and try to avoid gifting things that are alcohol, cigarettes etc.
10th year is traditionally 'Tin' so something metal or in a tin would be perfect.
If you want a special personalised gift you can use the gift finder on 'Etsy' or you could look on 'Not on the High street' website.
It would all depend on your budget, his preference of things, his interests, if he likes 'niknak type items'
Does it have to be an item? You could book a night or two away, do something you've always wanted to do like an experience - so feeding animals at the zoo or a hot air balloon ride etc.
You could always write notes of why you love him and pop them in a jar. If you write 52, he can open 1 a week for a whole year. Low cost but extremely thoughtful.
Or a hamper of their favourite items, food, drinks etc.
This clock would fall in the low cost, tin style theme and a useful, thoughtful gift, you could put photos of you two together in each slot:
You can even attach a note with: Happy 'Tin' Years it has been an amazing 'time'
DeBunny Thank you so much for all those wonderful ideas. I keep forgetting about Etsy, Not on the high street is where I usually look for sentimental things. The clock idea is actually a really food shout. The current clock we have keeps running out of battery so maybe a nice new one with loads of pictures of us over the years
You don’t mention if you have any children but if you do and if possible get them looked after and have a weekend away.
eyeballkerry Our family has all flown the nest and have families of their own, so there no need to organise that. There is a few new hotels I've been looking at so think I'll look and see if I can maybe find a wee deal. Thanks for the idea
Sammycb My husband always appreciates a gift like this then something else to clutter up the home. We spend more on holidays now than we ever did.
What about a canvass with photos of the 2 of over the past 10 years. Or what about a weekend away and do some experiences together to make new memories.
Think about the type of things that he enjoys and try to get a gift based around that.
MrsCraig He suffered a massive heart attack 6 yrs ago, has arthymia, artrial fibrillation, and 30% heart function. He died twice, once on the building site, but our middle son managed to get him back then again in the ambulance. We are so lucky to still have him with us, and I make sure to tell him that every day. We have been together for nearly 30 years, and we take one day at a time. Life really is so precious
Tin represents the tenth wedding anniversary so you could look at that. A lot of on line companies will specialise in particular wedding anniversaries. Good luck it can be a challenge buying something specific
suevernon1968 My husband would honestly like anything that's bought for him. I just want to get something to remind him how special he is and that I'm so glad he is still with us. Thanks for the ideas
Happy Anniversary!! We don’t buy one another gifts but either have a nice meal out, a day trip, or a mini holiday/weekend away. It’s easier than trying to think of something material and we both benefit. Depends on what he likes and what you know about him.
