Do you love your wife? Silly question, I know. Do you trust her enough to not scold (or punch you in the face) you if you fail to give her the perfect anniversary gift? It looks scary in your head already, I know that as well.

In order to save you all that trauma and torture (sympathetic exaggeration taken to another level altogether), here is the sure shot list of the possible wedding anniversary gift for wife which shall take you straight to her heart (and save you all the dramatic consequences).

1. Gift her a cosy vacation

Amidst all the growing responsibilities of the new family (if newly married), of kids, of parents, of work and of the household chores in general, a break is what every wife (yes, on this planet) needs, wants and deserves. What better wedding anniversary gift for wife than a cosy vacation in the hills or on the beach. Just you two, reminiscing the quality years well spent together and taking a break from the monotonous routine of life.

Even if you cannot make for a last minute vacation, then do not let the opportunity and the lovely day go waste. Plan a picnic for both of you and grab all her favourite dishes or even cook one yourself. Go to a secluded countryside or vineyards and tell her how much you love her and how fortunate you are to have her in your life. Bon Voyage!

2. Special breakfast in bed

What can be a better start to the day than a cosy breakfast in bed for your queen? When looking for a wedding anniversary gift for wife, you must understand that anything done with love and effort will take you straight to her heart, all over again. All you have to do is convey it to her, through little but special gestures. I hope it isn’t too much to ask for your wife?

Just cook her a delicious set of sweet pancakes or even Poha if she likes it, plate it with a little tomato sauce heart on the edge. Tie up anniversary balloons on the tray. Keep juices along with the food, add a piece of fruit cake to the entire setup and she will be the happiest wife on earth. Not just anniversaries, do it more often, say on weekends. After all, she deserves your attention each and every day. Do not forget to keep a red rose along.

If morning coffee, green tea or milk tea is something your wife cannot stay without, then this is the perfect wedding anniversary gift for wife that you have been looking for. Find this little beauty online or get one customised for her and wrap it up to present your beloved wife her brand new mug. It can either have her name or just ‘Mrs’ or even a pet name if you like, trust me, you are about to witness a lovely big grin on her face when she sees that.

Not just for her, you can get a pair made for both of you marking your morning cup of tea or coffee together, that you have on your bed or in the balcony. Isn’t the anniversary day meant to celebrate togetherness? What better way to mark that togetherness with such a sweet gesture. Don’t forget to tell her that the best start to the day is with a cup of hot coffee with her and her husband wishes to enjoy her company and the coffee ritual all his life, even when they grow old, together.

4. A new nameplate for your home

When you married your wife, didn’t you look forward to making a home with her out of a house?

A nameplate with both your names (of all the other members as well if living in a joint family) engraved on it can be an extremely thoughtful wedding anniversary gift for wife.

Order one for her or make one yourself if you are artistic enough.

There are plenty of beautiful variants available on the online shopping platforms and you may choose the one that symbolises her personality the most. Whether she likes it minimal or vibrant florals are her thing, whether a rustic wooden texture is her preference or a shiny mirror one, just choose the aptest one and wrap it up for the anniversary day.

Is your gorgeous wife a lover of books? Is she a keeper of books as her prized possession? So here is another lovely wedding anniversary gift for wife that is going to be just a perfect idea for the big day. A vibrant new bookshelf for her beloved study. Keep in mind the base colour of the wall of her study and order one in a highly contrasting shade which stands out, reminding her of your love every time she sees her.

If you like, you can even get her study renovated, mind you, do not mess up the listing sequence of the books (or you will be in no time). Do not mess too much with the details because some women are very particular about some things and books are definitely one of those. Let her know that you appreciate her likes and hobbies and you respect her for what she is.
