Special gifts for milestone anniversaries

Certain milestone years celebrate something different. For one year of marriage your gift should be something to do with paper, in fifty years it is gold. You have diamond, platinum, silver, wood. Everything you can think of, and thankfully there is a list online. So you may want to commemorate your wedding anniversary by sticking to this tradition. It’s a wonderful way to get creative.

Snap a picture on your anniversary each year

A lovely way to commemorate the day is taking a photograph at the same point each year. It could start with a wedding picture, and then the following year hold the wedding picture in your hands and have a new picture taken. Each year hold the previous image. It’s a wonderful way to see how you both, and your family changes, throughout the years.

Consider renewing your vows

Some couples want to relive the magic of the wedding day all over again and choose to renew their vows on big milestone points. Things like ten years, twenty years or even more, the choice is yours. There are some great ways to consider vow renewals. You could recreate your whole day by picking the same place and location, or try something different like a beach ceremony on a faraway shore. It’s a lovely way to reconnect with one another and reaffirm your commitment.
