If you’re a duo who appreciates sentimentality, this pick is for you. This sweet journal is designed to be used for years to come, and the ideal pick for a first anniversary gift, as it’s filled with prompts for you to fill out together at the end of each year.

Perfect for ‘80s babies (or anyone who appreciates a good dose of nostalgia), this classic kid’s toy can be personalized with seven of your favorite shots from the last year, so you can finally get them off your smartphone and into the world. 

If you’re a newlywed, you’re probably on the hunt for a 1-year anniversary gift that perfectly nods to that magical moment. This custom print from Etsy achieves just that. Surrounding one of your favorite wedding day shots, you can include the lyrics to your first dance song. (Or another special tune, like the karaoke song you tackled together on your second date.) Even better, it’s printed on gorgeous textured watercolor paper, which nods to the traditional first year anniversary gift theme of paper.

Nothing says “blissfully in love” quite like a matching outfit. This pair of hoodies is a gift for you both, allowing you to showcase your couple’s style in, well, style. Choose from dozens of hues (matching or not). Then, include your anniversary and one another’s initials in the custom field. It’ll be embroidered on the sleeves in Roman numerals, with of course, a heart on the sleeves. 

Time flies when you’re in love, and this thoughtful memento pays tribute to the many days (and hours, and seconds) you’ve spent by each other’s side. Available in several different colors (including rose gold, black, and white) and finished with a personalized plaque on the front, this timepiece clocks the years, months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds since you said your vows. It’s a sentimental wedding anniversary gift idea they’ll never see coming. 

The best anniversary gift ideas team sentimentality and functionality together into a memorable present. While this bookmark may seem simple, it strikes just the right note for the spouse with a towering TBR pile and sentimental streak. Engraved in the leather is a sweet phrase (“To many more chapters together”) alongside your initials and anniversary date. 

Sometimes, true love is knowing how to say you’re sorry. Is your late-night reading or TV light the reason your spouse has had less-than-perfect shut-eye this year? A silky eye mask might be the way to get back in their good graces. Bonus: The 12-year anniversary gift theme is silk, so this is a fun pick if you’re marking that milestone. 

By the time your seventh anniversary rolls around, you’ve probably worn through many of the kitchen gadgets and gear you put on your registry almost a decade ago. The good news? The traditional seventh anniversary gift is copper, which happens to make for some stunning cookware. This do-it-all pan from Mauviel is a cult classic, thanks to its superior construction and even heating. Your favorite chef will feel so spoiled. 

A bouquet is a classic anniversary gift idea, so you really can’t go wrong with a beautiful bundle of blooms. That being said, if you’re looking to really wow your spouse, why not have the stems waiting for them in a stunning vase, too? This pretty piece from Uncommon Goods comes in 12 distinct colorways, each representing a month of the year. Choose the one that best represents your anniversary for a standout gift that doubles down on meaningful details. 

Still stumped thinking of what to get for your anniversary? Look to the year’s themes. For couples shopping for a 5-year anniversary gift, wood is the way to go. This clever wine box hits the theme from two angles, both with the material, as well as with the carved tree motif decorating the front. The box itself boasts compartments for three different bottles of wine (or another favorite booze) that you can then open on your fifth, seventh, and tenth anniversaries. 

Every couple has their own traditions and rituals, whether that’s sharing a morning coffee, an evening stroll, or a passion for video games. If puzzles are your thing, this custom creation is the missing piece to your next anniversary celebration. Your one-of-a-kind design will showcase an aerial view of where you met, as well as one very charming phrase.

There are just some instances that call for a wow factor, and your tenth anniversary is one such occasion. Traditionally, celebrating a decade by each other’s side calls for diamonds (twist our arms!). The prized stone is one that can cater to any gender and style. These heirloom-worthy studs are as timeless as they come. In fact, they’ll look just as stunning today as they will in another decade.

We don’t doubt that your partner knows just how much you love them—but a few extra words of affirmation never hurt. This anniversary, easily convey the many reasons why they’re you’re person with this charming “I love you” jar. It comes with 25 blank wood hearts on which you can pen personalized sentiments, from how you adore their sense of humor to your appreciation for their Elvis impression. 

Nothing says “I love you” better than a gift that solves a particular pain point in your partner’s life. If their morning coffee is constantly getting cold before they can get the kids out the door or sign off from their meeting, Ember is the best anniversary gift to show you care. With it, they’ll be able to keep their morning brew to the perfect temperature for 80 minutes or more.
