Show your loved one how much you care.
A first anniversary is an exciting milestone, but finding the perfect anniversary gift can seem like a daunting task. You want to give your boyfriend a gift that shows how much you care, but you might not know what that is or think you can't afford it. Not to worry, you can find a thoughtful gift in any price range that is sure to put a smile on your partner's face.
Weekend Getaway
A weekend getaway is a gift that will allow you and your boyfriend to spend quality time together. Examples of weekend getaways include a trip to a vineyard, ski lodge, bed and breakfast, elegant hotel or couples' spa. Alternatively, have a weekend getaway in your own city. Rent a room in a hotel that is frequented by tourists and spend the weekend visiting tourist attractions.
Scrapbook
A scrapbook is an inexpensive gift that is full of sentiment. Purchase an empty scrapbook from a craft store and fill it with pictures and scraps from your relationship, such as ticket stubs for a concert you attended together, the bill from your first dinner date and a postcard from a vacation you took together. Then, add captions under certain photos and decorate the remaining space on the pages with scrapbook embellishments.
Something Engraved or Embroidered
Give any generic gift a sentimental touch by having it engraved. For example, you can engrave the back of an iPod, the top of a jewelery or memory box or the face of a flask, Zippo or Swiss Army Knife. You can also have items custom embroidered, such as a teddy bear, blanket, pillow, piece of clothing or bag. Suggestions for what to have engraved or embroidered include the date you met, a pet name for your partner, an inside joke or a romantic quote.
Jewelery
Jewelery is a classic anniversary gift. Give your boyfriend a ring, cuff links or a watch. Take your gift to the next level and have it engraved with the date of your anniversary, a special saying or simply I love you.
