1st Wedding Anniversary Gifts

1st wedding anniversary gifts are traditionally made of paper.

And if you are thinking, paper! Really? What kind of gift is that?

Then you are about to be pleasantly surprised, as paper comes in so many different ways.

For some, paper represents the fragility of love and how it is easy to break and in some cases thrown away. It is our reminder that love needs looking after.

For others, paper is the first step and as the years pass and your love grows your anniversary gifts grow too.

Here are lots of one year anniversary gift ideas.

1st Wedding Anniversary Gifts For Both Of You

The simplest has to be buying an anniversary card or even making it. If you make it yourself you can personalise it with a romantic poem or even a wedding photograph of you both. If you are the creative type a simple origami creation (the art of folding paper) would be a sweet keepsake, paper folding a heart is a fairly easy one.

Other 1st wedding anniversary gifts that you can make yourself are a collage of your first year together. If you keep tickets or programs of things and places you have been to together and photographs of fun times you can stick them all together and frame them.
