The wedding bells have quietened, and your honeymoon photos are framed in the hallway, over the fireplace or along the stairs.
One year, two years, ten years has gone by. Life happens, and you’ve seen the different faces and phases of love. It unfolded and transformed. And yet you’re still discovering new things.
Like diamonds that grow under the earth’s skin with time and pressure, your love is growing stronger still. You find yourself looking for ways to celebrate and appreciate the milestones that you’ve passed.
You could always go the traditional route – paper for the first anniversary, cotton for the second, etc. but getting creative with your gifts can be a lot of fun.
A paper trail of ‘I love you’ post-its in unexpected spots around your home, or matching cotton outfits for a romantic picnic in the park.
But sometimes, anniversaries represent achievements you want to commemorate in a more lasting way. Something to accompany you throughout the years as a reminder that ‘we made it through, and we’re stronger now’.
We have a few ideas for you to check out!
