Wedding and Anniversary Gift Ideas
A wedding is a time when a couple vow to love one another for the rest of their lives. It has to be one of the biggest commitments ever made in a lifetime, which deserves an amazing gift. Then, after the wedding, whether it has been one year or several decades later, an anniversary is the perfect time to celebrate with the couple for all they have achieved as they look ahead to another year. Here are some ideas.
Take a vacation
Wedding gift ideas are made much easier if the couple has a registry since you now know exactly what it is that they wish for, which could be a physical gift, a request for money towards a particular item, their honeymoon or a designated charity close to their hearts. The best anniversary trip is one without children and everyday distractions. If you can afford it, gift a vacation to a beach resort, or a cruise. If it is your anniversary, visit a place that is on your joint bucket list. If your anniversary is in the summer, a Caribbean vacation is best delayed until after hurricane season in November. Winter is also a great time for hitting the slopes of the ski resorts, or you could head south for some sun. May to September is the best time to tour Europe or go to Africa for a safari of a lifetime in June after the rainy season when temperatures are also reasonable.
Make-up and grooming sets
A gift for the couple celebrating an anniversary does not have to be a shared gift, but they can be comparable. A grooming gift set will have him looking good enough to accompany his wife as they go out to celebrate. A grooming gift set can be tailored to his needs, such as a beard care kit or if he likes to look dashing, include a tie, pocket square and cufflinks along with shower gel and fragrance so that he will look handsome in a navy suit. Most women enjoy luxurious pampering. Receiving a makeup gift from her favourite brand means she can try different things. A set of her skincare favourites; a boxed collection of nail polish or lipsticks; a brush set for blending, highlighting or applying shimmer powders; her favourite fragrance in an Eau de Parfum spray, a travel size spray, a rollerball and a body lotion or an eye palette gift set are just some ideas.
Beautiful home décor
A wedding gift for the newly-weds can be home décor items such as matching Mr. and Mrs. Couple cushions or pillows reading ‘Mr Right,’ and ‘Mrs Always Right’. There may be an artist they both like that you can gift a print or original to hang on their wall or a photograph of them both that you can have framed for them. Bouquets are beautiful anniversary gifts, but they do not last long. However, gold dipped roses are the perfect gift between spouses as they symbolise not only passionate love but strength, value and longevity. These are roses preserved at the peak of their natural beauty that are dipped in 24 karat gold and will be an everlasting reminder of your love.
Spa experience
A wedding is a beautiful event that often happens after months of stressful planning. A couples’ spa date at a local luxury hotel is a great gift for the couple to enjoy once the excitement of the wedding is over. Here they can experience a couples’ massage, manicures, pedicures and time in a sauna for a full relaxation experience. A spa experience is also a great anniversary gift for a couple with young children. To take an afternoon off for a relaxing time together is precious. Have family or close friends take care of children. If going out for a spa date is not possible. A spa hamper for him can include an aromatic body soap, body lotion, body massage oil, shave balm, shampoo along with new black and grey towels. A spa basket for her should include her favourite products that help her de-stress and feel relaxed. Along with skincare and beauty products, include a bottle of wine and some chocolate.
Book a Limo
Another great option is to try doing something fancy and book a limo for your special date. You can book a limo in California here.
