1st wedding anniversary - DH present?

hiya. It's a month to our first wedding anniversary. Apparently DH has already got me a present. I am completely blank as to what to get him. The only thing I could think of is a Sat Nav, but thought maybe that's better for a birthday present (ignoring whether or not I can afford one atm). I feel like a wedding anniversary present should be more romantic/personal.....

I can't think of anything... Help?!

Traditionally the gift for a first wedding anniversary is paper - usually money or a book etc

Thugh my gf successfully convinced her DH is was diamonds and scored a gorgeous set of earrings..but that doesnt help you

Does he read?

1st Wedding Anniversary
Traditional Gifts: Paper
Modern Gifts: Clocks


* Artwork
* Love letters and poetry
* Favorite book
* Memory album
* Stationary with new married name
* Home decor
* Gift certificates
* Cigars
* Book of floor plans (if building a house soon)
* Life insurance
* Geneology
* Tickets to a play, concert, or sporting event
* Wood sculpture

He does read, but 1) he already has a pile of books to read and 2) he sells his books once he's read them cos he doesn't re-read. I've told him I refuse to buy him books if he's just going to sell them

I also thought about a watch, but he's quite particular about his watches and he turns them over every couple of years.

Thanks for the advice

The other thing I've been thinking of is making a photobook of our time together (not just our wedding photos)

Our first anniversary I bought DH golf clubs (he wanted for a while) and he bought me tickets to cirque de solei.

So what about tickets to see a show!! Mamma mia, mary Poppins etc dont know if you are into that.

We don't really buy presents for our anniversary but usually do something together.

The Melbourne Comedy Festival is on in April. Could you buy tickets to that, and do dinner before or after?

I love doing presents.

Is your hubby a romantic type, you could write him a personal poem

Thanks for all the ideas. I'm sure bw them I'll figure something out.

Kate - we've already booked in to about 5 shows during the comedy fest :)

I'm approaching my first wedding anniversary in October and have the same dilemma! Perhaps a nice weekend away? Or even a day away.. A personalised gift maybe? What is he interested in?

I always give my DH a certificate for something cool, I've given him Hot Laps in a race car at Calder Park, Lion Feeding at Werribee Zoo & a ride in a Tiger Moth.
There are heaps of websites where you can buy experiences like these if your DH is into adrenaline kind of things.

I gave my DH a mag subscription for our first anni. It was great cos he got a gift every month!

Control freak, love that idea! Might just steal it for myself!!
