Wedding Anniversary Ideas: Three (3) Reasons Why It Is Important To Pick An Anniversary Gift For Your Partner



An anniversary is a milestone on any relationship. Aside from holding a celebration like a candlelit dinner for two for example, or an out-of-town getaway, giving gifts to each other is an excellent way to demonstrate how special this occasion is for the couple involved. 



Why Is It Important To Pick An Anniversary Gift For Your Partner
Identify the reasons behind gift-giving during anniversaries. Let this be a reminder when you go shopping for the perfect present to give to your partner on your first-, fifth- or tenth-year wedding anniversary.

1.       To show how much you care for your spouse. When you love someone, you shower her with affection. You let her know how much she touches your heart. You do everything you can to make her smile from ear to ear and happy in your arms. You give her what she hopes for or desires the most. While you may have been doing that during her birthday already, the significance becomes especially different during anniversaries. The former is akin to celebrating her existence in this world whereas the latter focuses on her existence in your world. It represents how much you value her presence in your life and how much you are looking forward to spending more years together.

2.       To become closer to one another. Consider it a symbol that strengthens your bond. For instance, imagine looking back on the day you met at a house-warming party by a friend, on the time when you exchanged I love you’s under the moonlight, when you proposed and she said “yes”, when you took marital oaths in Santuario de San Antonio with all your loved ones as witnesses, when you shared your first dance and ate the wedding cake prepared by the Makati catering services that you hired. Think about the exact moment when you realized you’re having a new member in the family, when you heard the first syllable that came out of your baby’s mouth. All these scenarios constitute to the journey you both took as a couple and where you are at now. The memento is like a token that binds your love and a remembrance of why you are together.

3.       To level up your relationship. Do remember that for every year that passes you by, it indicates a level of maturity in your marriage. This gift marks the hardships and pains, the pleasure and joy you both endured and will endure in the future.
