Celebrate With Your Friends and Family

If you and your partner are a bit conservative, or don’t feel like doing anything special, then consider celebrating with your family and friends. Plan a day, preferably on the weekend as that is when everyone is most available, and have a celebration at your house and invite family and friends over to help you celebrate. Allow it to be more of a gathering, or surround the party around your anniversary, whatever you and your spouse feel most comfortable with.

Do You Have Kids?

If you and your spouse have children, then consider incorporating them in your celebratory activities. This will also be a great reminder of the love you and your partner share along with the strength of your relationship.

Consider going to a nice lunch, spending a day at the beach, or even doing something the kids will enjoy. Seeing their faces light up will warm your hearts as well.

Revisiting Your Memories

Take a trip to the venue which you got married at, the place you first met, and even where you had your first date. This is a great reminder and great activity to get you and your partner excited and allow the intimate feelings to come back.

Buy Each Other a Gift

If all else fails, consider buying your spouse a gift. Of course, we’d hope that you’d want to buy them something to mark the occasion anyway! This is one of the most common ways to show your spouse you remember them and appreciate them. Figure out what they want and make it special for them.

What can you buy your husband or wife to commemorate your wedding in the traditional way. To make things more interesting, consider surprising them with the gift and a nice dinner out, or you might even consider being a chef for the evening.  Don’t forget to include with your gift a romantic card with an endearing quote.
