Married couples and the people around them, love celebrating wedding anniversaries. This is a great accomplishment for them, it shows that they truly love each other and year after year they strengthen the bonds and celebrate their union. A wedding anniversary is an annual celebration of a couple's wedding day. A lot of people celebrate this kind of special occasion by gatherings and food preparations or maybe an intimate dinner by the couple. Some may even conduct special programs and entertaining activities.

Gift giving is important in this kind of celebration. A gift is a special present and is a token of appreciation. For wedding anniversaries, gifts are given to the couple as a sign of love and appreciation for they have reached another year of their married life. In choosing the gift for your loved ones, you must be particular to what anniversary they are celebrating. Your gift signifies your feeling about the accomplishment that they have made.

"Paper" is the traditional symbol of the first year wedding anniversary. Gift giving must be symbolic. If you want to give a gift to a married couple celebrating the first year of their married life, here are some gift suggestions that you can choose from.

Since the traditional symbol for this wedding anniversary is paper, you can try thinking of a paper related gift. If you want budget friendly gifts for 1st year wedding anniversary, you can try sending them wedding anniversary greeting cards You can put your personal message to the couple inside the card. It is a very good way to express your happiness over their one-year companionship. Another suggested item is fun newspapers, you can put their name on the newspaper with a greeting saying happy first year wedding anniversary, there are also real and original newspapers available for almost any date, you can order a copy for the date the couple were married that shows what was going on that wonderful day. Books are also good gifts. Personalized homemade gifts are also good, for example painting, homemade greeting cards, coupons, love letters, calendars, photographs and posters.

I personally think that "paper roses" are one of the best first year anniversary gifts available, for two reasons, one - you have the romance and intimacy of roses, two - your able to stay with the "traditional" list of anniversary gifts. A bonus to this idea is that unlike real roses this gift can last forever. I am not talking about artificial flowers here, these are paper roses that are made especially for first year anniversaries.

If you want to give them a gift that is medium priced, you can give them gift such as board game puzzles, tickets to concerts, special shows, bar or anywhere. You can also give them money so they can buy whatever they want to have, although if you opt to give money it would be more appropriate to use gift cards or gift certificates to their favorite stores. While gift cards and gift certificates are acceptable gifts for a couple, I would NOT recommend this as a gift to a spouse, this is your first anniversary together and you need to put a little more thought into it than giving something as impersonal as money. Romantic novels and books can also be a nice gift. Cigars, business stationary and personalized writing instruments are also givable.

If you want a luxurious and expensive gift, you can give them paper works materials such as holiday tickets and flight tickets can be given. Life insurance for the couple may also be a good expensive gift. Specific gifts such as, their wedding photo in oil Painting, Silk Magnolia Centerpiece, Own a Piece of Magic Kingdom, Par-tee, Il Papiro Personalized Stationary Firenze, Spa Wish Gift Certificate and other certificates and gift checks.
