There’s a stigma out there about men and how they typically forget anniversaries, birthdays, and other special occasions. It’s not necessarily fair, but it’s also not inaccurate.

However, even men who remember anniversaries often drop the ball by failing to make it meaningful. Ordering in pizza and watching your favorite show on Netflix may be a great date night, but it’s not an adequate anniversary night.

If you’re struggling to figure out what to get or do for your significant other, take a look at our guide on the top anniversary gifts for her!

Anniversary Gifts for Her

When thinking about how to show your special lady in your life how much she means to you, keep a couple of things in mind.

First, it’s not necessarily about the stuff or the price, although it definitely helps to spare no expense. However, the most important thing is learning how to listen to your wife or girlfriend.

Paying attention to her thoughts, feelings, and desires will elate her and may even be a dead giveaway for the perfect anniversary gift.

1. A Romantic Experience

It sounds cliche, but it’s what women want from their man – romance. It may not come naturally, but it’s not that hard to make an effort, and she’ll notice.

Book a fancy candle-lit restaurant, find a romantic place to go for a walk afterward, and finish with a night at home pampering her. This, of course, can end with an intimated night beneath the sheets, but first, focus on making her feel like a queen. Use oils to give her an aromatic massage, play peaceful music, and bring her favorite whine.

2. A Surprise Getaway

Alternatively, you can plan a surprise getaway for just the two of you. This is one of the most exciting anniversary gifts for her you can do. However, make sure you are completely aware of her schedule before you book solid dates and times, you don’t want your gift to inconvenience her.

It may be a good idea to get an open-ended ticket, surprise her with it, then lock down the dates.

3. Jewelry

You can almost never go wrong with Sterling Silver Jewelry. Every woman loves to feel beautiful, both for her significant other and in general.

However, jewelry shopping can sometimes be tricky, as women don’t always love gold, hearts, flowers, etc. Sterling silver, on the other hand, is nearly always a safe bet. It goes with nearly any outfit and provides a graceful elegance to the wearer.

4. Something You’ve Made

Anniversary gifts for her that are sure to make her heart swell are homemade or artistic gifts.

What are your talents or gifts? Can you draw, sculpt, sing, play an instrument? Whatever you’re working with, make it work for you to show her how much she means to you.

The time you put into this act of love with be far more valuable than money spent.

5. A Gift That Showcases the History of Your Relationship

Finally, if you don’t have the ability or time to create something for her, you can always celebrate your relationship as a couple through a gift.

For example, a unique or custom picture frame with her favorite picture of the two of you or a scrapbook with a collage of pictures is a great gift. Alternatively, you can hire an artist to paint or draw a large-scale picture of the two of you.

Good Luck

Remember, gentlemen, it’s the thought that counts. However, the “oh shoot, I forgot our anniversary so I’ll buy flowers” thought counts in the wrong direction.

Amazing anniversary gifts for her are about making her feel important, special, and cared for. Keep that in mind as you make your decision.
