1st Wedding Anniversary gift Ideas
traditional theme for 1st wedding anniversary gift is paper
The happy couple has made it through 12 months. And the reward… paper! Here is a material that means so many things: folding money, memorable photos, the wrapping around something shiny and expensive. It’s fragile and delicate, but also the basis of old school romantic communication – love notes! Or perhaps the blank page for the rest of your lives together.

gemstone for 1st wedding anniversary - gold jewellery (pearl and peridot as alternatives)
Any jewellery featuring gold: bracelets, bangles, cuffs, necklaces, pendants, earrings, rings.
Hard to go wrong with gold jewellery for her (and maybe a pinkie ring, antique tie-pin for him). And there’s a while to go before the full-on gift of the gold-themed 50th anniversary. This theme is more about a nice piece of jewellery (bracelet, earrings, necklace) that has some gold as part of it – it could even just be the chain. Pearls are an alternative for this theme. Pearl jewellery comes in all shapes and designs, not just simple spheres. Lily Gardner’s long graduated pearl earrings are a perfect example of the beauty and fashionable ways to wear delicate freshwater pearl jewellery.
