Anniversary Gifts

Are you having a hard time finding the perfect anniversary gift for your loved one? Well, look no further because today, we will break down some of the best anniversary for the special person in your life. Every year, there is one special day that is dedicated to your two’s love for each other. There is no better way to show that love than getting them an excellent gift that comes from the heart. Here are some great anniversary gifts for your loved one and if you're looking for a traditional anniversary gift idea by year (yes that's a thing!), check out our master list of anniversary gifts by year.

• Love Letter
  
  The first anniversary is dedicated to a paper gift. There is no better way to follow that trend and show them you love them than writing a letter that is heart-felt and engaging. You can make it simple or long, but the idea stays the same. This is one of the best gift ideas you can have, especially for the first anniversary.
   
• A cozy sweater or hoodie
  
  The second anniversary year is cotton, so to stick with the theme, grabbing an awesome hoodie or sweater is a great idea. There is no better way to snuggle up with a loved one than with a fantastic sweater.  Maybe get one that represents a favorite sports team or one from a top designer. Either way, grab one that your loved one will be ecstatic about wearing it all the time!
   
• A couple’s hiking trip
  
  As we jump forward to the five year anniversary, the theme is wood. Now, there are many wooden items out there but not many you would buy your partner as a gift, so it is time to think a little bit outside of the box (even if that box is made of wood).  Taking a couple’s hiking trip through the woods absolutely qualifies as a “wood” gift.  Although there may not be a physical exchange of gifts, taking a day trip through the woods and indulging in nature can be both romantic and relaxing. So, get a little creative and celebrate that five year anniversary in the outdoors!
   
• Gold Jewelry
  
  The 14th anniversary really takes it up a notch and says that you should give some gold jewelry!  There are so many options at many price points to hit this gift for both men and women.  Gold can get pretty expensive and may be rarely worn, so gold-plated jewelry is another reasonable option and most jewelers can offer gold plating services if you want to make it a custom item.  This is more affordable while also sticking with the theme.  Some popular jewelry options include earrings, necklaces, chains, and watches.
   
• Wine or spirits
  
  The final anniversary gift idea on our list is wine or spirits. Traditionally, this comes with the 17th anniversary but you and your loved one could use a new bottle at any time. The only research you have to do is to get a sense of what your spouse would like. By the 17th year, this should be super easy.   While you want to get them something that they would like, you should also consider getting something new and maybe out of their comfort zone. Get them a bottle that they normally wouldn’t want to buy themselves and maybe you will introduce them to a newfound love!
  
  Some great options include wine, tequila, whiskey, vodka, and any other spirit that is found at your local liquor store. Think outside of the box and push the limits for what your spouse knows they already love!

Here are some fantastic anniversary gifts that are in accordance to the yearly trends! If you are struggling to find gift ideas for that special someone, consult some of these ideas and get a present that will wow.
