I wouldn’t set the trend dude… if you give something this time around, it is **never **going away. If you *must *start with flowers only so next time the expectation is low.

You can always get away with it by pretending that you forgot.

mashallah.

Don’t over do it. It’s only your first anniversary. Diamonds, weekend get-away, spa day, photo album, bake ware. You’ll have plenty of occasions as well as out of the blue surprises to give her everything listed here

If she just bought it a couple of months ago, let her enjoy that one. You have so many choices of other things to buy!

1. If you’re going to buy diamond studs, do check out Blue Nile. You’ll get more diamond for your pound. And get the bezel setting. I so love it. We just bought me diamond studs this past weekend to go with the diamond necklace he gave for my birthday and we ended up paying twice the amount for the diamonds listed on blue nile. This is a great site. Found out about this site from the guys at work.
2. I LOVE LOVE LOVE William Sonoma. You’ll find lots of wonderful bakeware there.
3. What about an ice cream maker? My MIL bought her other DIL an ice cream maker for her anniversary. They love it and made some really yummilicious ice cream once to bring out to our house for dinner.
4. A super duper smoothie maker like Vitamix or Blendtec
5. What about a desi Pressure Cooker? Just found out recently from a desi woman that desi Pressure Cookers are dutch oven (kinda like this one) not deep like the one that I bought.
6. Cast Iron Cookware is all the rage, these days or I just wasn’t aware of cookware before

Thanks so much Peony but I don’t like you anymore, you’ve given me tooooo many choices!!! :-).

Thank you thank you.

ok ok . I am thinking I shall give her flowers which i always do as she loves them, have the photo album made, a Spa day and either cake accessories etc or ice cream mixer as she has mentioned ice cream making in the past.

Will this be too much?

The photo album will be the most difficult as we have a ton of pictures and it’ll take me forever choosing which ones and where they will go in the album but worth it.

The diamond stud or ring i can leave for a different occasion then again as I am a bit random I can just surprise her?.

Lol.

We are having our registry on the same day, I can't attend my own wedding and pretend it hasn't been exactly a year :)

She is worth it so it's ok!!!

Re: Anniversary present for my wife

he is getting me an ipad mini for the anniversary! even asked me if I wanted something of gold but I refused!

Did he ask you what you wanted or did you find out?

Or handcuffs perhaps.

Help needed.

Our first year anniversary is coming up and I don’t know what to get.

We have already booked a long weekend away but what to buy??

No matter what I get I am going to send some pictures for a photo album - but that is just something I have wanted to give for a while but what else.

I know she likes baking so I can buy something related to that…so difficult.

Rings, bracelets, watches and perfumes are out of the question as she does not wear them, well she does the perfume but has loads already from me.

She is probably having an easier time as i like my gadgets.

Edit: I went shopping recently with her and she liked two bags and a pair of shoes but didn’t buy them. I can buy all these but i don’t think it would be like an anniversary present, more of a birthday present…oh damn…her birthday is a month later!!!

Hmmm…Buy her a pet

Anniversary present for my wife

So if it were me, my preference is Album, studs or a major piece of jewelry for the anniversary. And ice cream maker and those kinds if things on a birthday. Everyone always asks what you got for your 1st, I would rather say diamonds than an ice cream maker. But that's just me ! Spa day is also nice with the other stuff for an anniversary.

i am sure she is worth it... doesn't mean worth has to be met equally by an expensive gift...

Are you related to homesick by any chance?

She currently uses the one in the following link.

Andrew James Powerful 300 Watt Hand Mixer With Chrome Beaters, Dough Hooks, 5 Speed With Turbo Button Includes Balloon Whisk: Amazon.co.uk: Kitchen & Home

That is the only thing stopping me from getting another one, even though whichever I buy will be better than the current one which she only bought herself a couple of months ago.

eww…who uses hand mixer…kitchenaid rulezz :k:

Re: Anniversary present for my wife

Did he ask you what you wanted or did you find out?

he asked me what I would prefer. A dslr camera? something of gold like bracelet, a new laptop or ipad. I told him whatever he feels like getting for me! :) I was kinda inclined in getting a dslr but then he made the point that dslr will remain in your cupboard. ipad you will be using like mad lol

Najeeb-

Happy Anniversary! Hope you guys have a very special day and a lifetime of happiness & love together.

Let's list it all out so we can really see what you're giving her.

1. Flowers (Peonies!)
2. Weekend getaway (Paris)
3. Photo Album (1st Year Memories)
4. Spa Day (Massage, Facial, Manicure, Pedicure)
5. Ice Cream Maker

Sounds lovely! It shows that you put in a lot of time and effort arranging for all these things and I'm sure she'll appreciate all of your efforts. You can even save the Spa Day for a month later to give for her birthday.
