He loves getting them every month and I love that it stuck to the traditional 'paper' gift. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636575 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:43:32 +0000 BelugaBean 636575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the idea of concert tickets! I wanted to stay within the paper tradition too so I got him a signed picture of Hank Aaron (he's an Atlanta Braves fan). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636550 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:34:14 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 636550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I created a wedding photo album.and surprised him w/ a trip to St. Lucia.</p> <p>Other ideas: book of love poems with a heartfelt poetic inscription or what about creating a shadow box of wedding stuff- program, menu card, vows, jewelry you wore, fav photo, his bow tie etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636547 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:33:36 +0000 MsLipGloss 636547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got DH art . . . long story short, he/we loved the artist so much, we have acquired multiple pieces from the same artist! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636534 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:29:48 +0000 Cara M. 17 636534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ordered a photo of our first dance with our lyrics surrounding it from Etsy. The seller was paperheartcompany. I was really happy with the quality and it fit the traditional gift of paper. </p> <p>I also bought him a nice box to keep his watch collection in. My father passed away shortly after our wedding and DH now has all of his watches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636521 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:26:04 +0000 Pirouette 636521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we just treated ourselves to a ridiculously good meal at an exceptional restaurant (no paper involved other than the very lengthy check!). i like the idea of tickets to something, or you could maybe frame your vows? or frame a wedding pic with the vows? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636509 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:23:42 +0000 pui 636509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my husband a silver replica of his wedding band because he almost lost his real one once and was bummed for a whole day until we found it. He loved it!</p> <p>Concert tickets is a great one! Maybe a book? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636496 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:19:03 +0000 mrs. wagon 636496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did tickets to a concert! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-wedding-anniversary-gift-ideas#post-636482 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:14:05 +0000 illumina 636482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our first wedding anniversary is coming up in May and I'm struggling to come up with a unique, meaningful gift for DH. I would like to keep to the traditional paper gift and have thought of either a framed photo of us or maybe tickets to a concert or play he would like to go to. </p> <p>Has anyone got other ideas? Care to share the gift you gave/received for yours? </p>
