Ideas for 1st anniversary present?

DH and I's anniversary is on the 21st and I have no idea what to get him. I'm not completely set on following the traditional or modern gifts of paper/clocks but definitely wouldn't mind doing it if I could think of a cute idea.

What did you get DH for your 1st anniversary? Or do you have any ideas?

Anything would be greatly appreciated Smile  TIA!

  • He bought dinner at the place we had our wedding and I went with the traditional gift of paper by giving him tickets for two to see The Blue Man Group.  =)  We both loved it.

  • We decided to keep it cheap for our 1st anniversary, so DH got me a personalized calendar. It is so cute and I (obviously) use it everyday. I had just had a DD a month before...so I wasn't in any shape to go out shopping (haha), so I just got him a gift certificate.

    That said, I always thought it would be so cute to do boudoir pictures for the first anniversary. Then you could give him prints (paper). One of my friends recently gave his DH a mosaic print of all the place they got married (using all of their wedding pictures to make it). There are several free software programs to do this with. I can't remember the one he used, but here's an example and 2 programs to try.

    Other than that...concert tickets/favorite sport tickets, book, or a nice watch.

  • For our 1 year we bought plane tickets for our trip last summer.  It counted as paper! 
  • We just had ours and I got him a signed mini helmet from emmit smith... which is his fave football player and he got me a coach bag. We wanted to do traditional but couldn't think of anything. I was going to get boudoir pics done but wasn't where I wanted to be weight wise but I think that's cute!
  • I got my husband a PS3 game he was really wanting. Now I can't get him to stop adding the expansion packs. lol
  • We went on a trip. I think vacations are best :)
