“A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love, trust, partnership, tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year.” - Paul Sweeney. Each word said by him holds true for almost every marriage. And there can be no other reason for so many people to want to celebrate their anniversaries year after year. Though it is popularly said that marriages are made in heaven, couples have to work hard to make the union work on the earth. With the passage of time, the bond of marriage also strengthens, and then the anniversaries grow from the first to the fifth and then from platinum to the diamond and so on. Each anniversary comes with yet another precious year added to the celebration. Picking up something for each other has been a tradition for years, but making a choice for the husband is still quite a daunting task even for a doting wife. It is probably more so because of the misconception that men do not like receiving gifts, and not because there is a dearth of giftable items around. Men not only like gifts, they are actually flattered by them, not so much for its monetary value as for the thoughtfulness behind it. If searching for a gift for your husband has left you no wiser, get some interesting tips here.
Wedding Anniversary Gifts For Husbands
Love Letter
There is nothing more romantic than writing a love letter to your husband, every word echoing the love that you have for him. The things that you couldn’t say directly or were shy to come up with can be mentioned through this letter. There is no better opportunity to make it all clear, and say those magical words ‘I love you’ in the most enchanting way possible. It will be a greater idea to slip your love letter into a carved bottle and keep it on his bedside. Make sure that the letter in the bottle is the first thing he notices the minute he gets up on the anniversary.
Watch
It is hard to find many men doing without a watch. For men, a watch is more or less like an ornament. Please your husband this anniversary by gifting him a special watch, one that he has been eyeing for long, or the one that you know will really pleasantly surprise him. This makes a wonderful gift as every time he looks at the time, he will think about you. What more can you ask for than a husband who thinks about his wife 24X7, literally?
Champagne
How about an expensive bottle of champagne? You can reinvent the lost romance in each other’s arms sipping champagne from the bottle you gift him, relishing every moment that you spend with each other. Every sip will have a story to tell for years to come.
Gadgets
Men and electronics are like inseparable twins and however much he may try, your husband is likely to be no different. He is sure to appreciate a gadget gift. Get him something that he doesn’t have but would love to have, like a new head set or an LCD TV or even an i-pod. All of these make for great gifts.
Sports Gifts
An English willow cricket bat is sure to please your cricket crazy husband. There are other choices like gloves or a ticket to a local cricket tournament that can also thrill him no end. All you have to worry about now is how passionate he is about that game!
Silk Tie
Adding more elegance to his dressing with a silk tie can be a great idea. A silk tie is a strong contender among anniversary gift ideas since long. It is still one of the favorite gifts chosen.
Perfumes
Though men generally are not known to be too interested in fragrances, or so it is believed, just gift him an expensive perfume and see the difference! He is more than likely to wear it everywhere he goes. He can carry the fragrance of your love all through the day.
Glares
Add some style to his looks. Get him a cool pair of sunglasses that leave him looking like your favorite heartthrob.
