There are many anniversary gifts that are both affordable and romantic. If you're struggling for the perfect romantic anniversary gift for your spouse, you can look to both unusual gift ideas and anniversary traditions for inspiration. In addition to giving tangible items as gifts, you could do something special for your sweetheart. Also, think of surprising your spouse this year. These romantic anniversary gift ideas are very popular and provide plenty of room for fun and creativity.

Romantic Anniversary Gift Ideas: Weekend Getaways

A romantic weekend getaway is another surprise your spouse will surely appreciate. However, don't surprise your sweetheart at the last minute, since even a short vacation requires some planning and preparation. Look on the web for the best deals on travel in your local area. Look especially for places that are within 50 miles of where you live. Check a comparison shopping site such as Priceline.com for spas, luxury resorts and chain hotels in the area with discounts and extra amenities. Also, be sure that the area you're traveling to has plenty of attractions to keep you busy. You may both feel better if you skip the airport frustrations and drive to a nearby destination. However, if the airline prices and car rental rates are low, hopping on an airplane may be a better bet.

Romantic Anniversary Gift Ideas: Jewelry

There are many affordable anniversary jewelry gifts for both men and women. If you're a woman buying for your husband, consider getting him some cuff links or a ring engraved with his initials or a personal message. If you're a man buying for your wife, think about buying some earrings, a ring, a bracelet or a locket with a personal inscription. Enclose a picture of yourself in the jewelry item if possible. Use tradition to guide you in your gift-buying decisions. If it's your eighth anniversary, get something in bronze. If it's your eleventh, purchase stainless steel jewelry. If it's your fourteenth, get something in ivory. For the thirtieth anniversary, buy jewelry inset with pearls. For the thirty-fifth anniversary, look for coral jewelry. Find rubies for your fortieth, sapphires for your forty-fifth, gold for your fiftieth, emerald for your fifty-fifth and diamonds for your sixtieth anniversaries. Check Gifts.com for jewelry and engraving services.
