Anniversary Picture Collage
For my wonderful boyfriend on our first anniversary
(dating), I bought a cheap black picture frame and then
took a bunch of pictures of just the two of us (mostly
ones we had skillfully taken ourselves) and cut them
out. Then I pasted them onto a piece of construction
paper. On the back of the construction paper I wrote
what each picture was and when it was taken. Then, to
top it off I wrote “Happy Anniversary!” at the top and
"in just one year you've become my best friend..." and
things like that. It was really cute and he loved it!
It's in his room where everyone can see it!

Anniversary Recovery
For all the years that my girlfriend and I were
together, our fifth anniversary was the first time that
we could be together. But the sad part of the story is
we had just broken up two weeks prior to it. Although we
had broken up, I decided to continue with the
anniversary plans I had for her with a surprise that she
will never forget. The night before the anniversary, I
gave her a package and told her to open it at up at
exactly 3:30 am only at the stairs at her home (where I
could see her while hiding). I left her that night
making her feel that it was just an ordinary gift. At
3:30 am, she opened my present and, you know what, I
never saw her smile that way to see a recorder, a tape
and a headset. I had my message taped there which
reminded her of how much she means to me and how much I
wanted her back. I saw her smiling and crying at the
same time. At the end of the message, I told her to open
the door because this guy's heart is knocking out loud.
She ran to the door saw me wearing a very nice black
suit and carrying a bouquet of red roses. She hugged me
in tears. But, that's not the end of my surprise. I told
her that I had a question which she didn't have to
answer that day. While still hugging, I carried and
turned her around and she saw a large streamer painted
in red which said, "Will you love me again when the
right time comes?" Believe me, the rest of the day was
amazing!

Anniversary Road Trip
One our one-year anniversary my husband made me get in
the car, but he wouldn't say where we were going. He
proceeded to drive me all over the state to all the
places that have been important in our relationship.
(Where we met, our first apartment, the coffee shop we
went to on our first date.) I never expected it, and
he'll never top it. I couldn't believe he remembered
some of the really trivial places.

Anniversary Love Frame
On our first year anniversary, I had practically no
money to buy a great gift. So, I went out and bought a
cheapie picture frame, and some wooden plain hearts on
sale. I painted the frame a shade of red, and the hearts
two other shades of red. On the sides of the frame I
wrote little endearing things, like a line from our
song, or his favorite poem. After I was done, I put our
favorite picture in the frame. When I gave it to him the
look on his face was priceless! It is now hanging in his
room, right across from his bed. Every time you walk
into the room it is the first thing that you see, and I
thought I was being sappy...

Anniversary Luau
Our one year anniversary was coming up and I wanted to
do something EXTREMELY special for my wonderful man. It
took me about a week until I figured out what I wanted
to do. Being islanders, we both love to attend luaus. So
I told him we were going to dinner for our anniversary,
but he had to wear a pareo (sarong). He was a little
shocked, but he played along anyways. I then blindfolded
him and took him to my house. The night before, I had
set up a luau inside. I placed an umbrella table in our
living room under a sheer drape that flowed over the
umbrella to create a very tropical look. I then ordered
Hawaiian food from a local restaurant, and lit fifty
candles all around the room. I also hand made the leis.
My close friend and her Hawaiian group sang and danced
for our own private luau! His face was priceless, and he
said it was the most beautiful thing anyone had ever
done for him!! I still get comments on it!

Anniversary Month Gift Idea
My boyfriend and I had been dating for a couple of
months. Well, on one of our anniversary's I got an old
shoebox and painted it with our favorite color. I lined
the inside with black velvet. I put half a bag of
Hershey’s kisses and little inexpensive crimson red
glass hearts in the inside. Also, I printed out two
pages of "things about me" and cut them into strips, and
put them inside the box. I gave kisses and hugs to my
friends to eat, and had them save the little "kiss" and
"hug" tags from each candy – I glued those on the
outside. I made a little love poem to glue on the
outside which read, "In this box, made out of my love
for you, / I've enclosed many kisses and hugs from me to
you. / Whenever you feel like you are alone, / And you
are unable to reach me by phone, / Open the box and
steal a hug or kiss / And remember that you too, are
really missed."

Anniversary Scavenger Hunt
On our two-year anniversary, I planned a scavenger hunt
for my husband. I had a watch box wrapped and when he
opened it, he found 2 tickets to Phantom of the Opera.
Underneath the tickets was a note that said Clue #1.
Inside the folded note was a rhyme that told him where
to go for the next clue. The clues led him several
places (including getting a clue from my parent's cat,
attached to his collar) with the final destination the
restaurant where we had our dinner reservations. The
waiter (who was the final clue) came to the table with a
heart shaped balloon arrangement that I had bought, with
a gift certificate attached to the bottom. The gift
certificate read, "For being such a great husband, you
are entitled to 4 days and three nights at a Bed &
Breakfast in San Antonio, TX." (San Antonio is one of
his favorite places.) I had already arranged for the
time off work with his boss. Upon arrival in San
Antonio, I had the owners of the Bed & Breakfast set up
in our bedroom rose petals scattered all over the room,
fresh flowers, a cake, 50 balloons, champagne, wine
glasses, chocolates, and soft romantic music playing
with the lights dimmed with only little white Christmas
lights in the silk trees. I even had it arranged for us
to be served breakfast in bed. When he walked in the
room he was thrilled! We had provisions for bubble baths
in the original antique claw footed tub, plush bathrobes
and breakfast served every morning by a gourmet chef. He
will never forget this anniversary!

Anniversary Days
Anniversaries can be measured in days or weeks instead
of years. After 20 days of separation from my love I
sent her a 20th anniversary card
with emerald earrings since emerald is the recognized
gem for 20 year anniversaries.

Anniversary Dinner With Flair
For our 12th Anniversary I hired a personal Cook to come
into our home and cook my husband his favorite meal and
Dessert and also hired a harpist to play the harp while
we were being served. As he got home from work he was so
surprised to hear the music coming from inside the house
and enter in to see a harpists and a cook - he
absolutely loved it and was very surprised - He said he
didn't know how I would top this the following year!!!

Anniversary Gifts
For our one-year anniversary I got my love polo pajamas
and I had them monogrammed with his name on the pocket.
I also had his initials put onto his pants as well as a
special quote and our date on the inside of the cuff. I
am making him a heart booklet that consists of 2 rings
(like the kind on desk calendars) and I’m going to fill
it with 365 hand-size hearts that I’m cutting out of
construction paper. The title of the booklet is, "365
Reasons Why I Love You". I bought some really nice, gold
morning glory stationery on which I’m writing him a
7-page note, and I bought him a really nice Hallmark
card...He’s worth everything a little shortie like me
can give him!
