MAKE IT SPECIAL

YOUR ANNIVERSAR­Y ONLY COMES ONCE A YEAR

-

Whether you are celebratin­g your 50th wedding anniversar­y, or your first year together as a couple, here are some romantic ideas for the occasion.

RECREATE YOUR FIRST DATE

If you can remember the details of the night that sealed the deal, try to recreate as many aspects of the date as possible.

This will remind you and your partner where it all started and why you fell in love in the first place.

TRY SOMETHING NEW

Your anniversar­y is the perfect opportunit­y to tick one off your bucket list.

Perhaps you and your partner have been saying for ages how great it would be to take Route 66 from start to finish. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to have a couple’s massage.

There is no time like the present! This will show your partner you are serious about putting your plans into action, and it will produce just another incredible memory for you to share.

SPEND THE NIGHT SOMEWHERE SPECIAL

Whether it’s the wedding suite wherein you spent your first night as a married couple, or the cabin wherein you spent your first holiday together, spend the night somewhere special.

Being somewhere alone for the night, without distractio­ns, will give you plenty of time to give your partner all the attention they deserve on this special day (and vice versa!).

IT’S THE LITTLE THINGS

Is there something your partner mentioned in passing, something they’d like to do, somewhere they’d like to go, or something small they would like to buy?

Surprising your partner with a trinket that caught their eye months ago, or a fishing trip they’ve always wanted to take but kept postponing, shows them you’ve paid attention.

Whatever you do, make it special.
