How to Select a Proper Gift for a One-Month Anniversary

Acknowledging milestones in a relationship is a great way to show your sweetheart, lover or spouse that you care enough to remember that all-important date. Little gifts demonstrate your love and appreciation and help keep the romance strong.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Credit card
• Computer with Internet access
• Dinner reservations

1. Pick a card with a whimsical or loving message. Leave it somewhere unexpected.
2. Choose an inexpensive but sentimental gift.
3. Send a single flower with a heartfelt message.
4. Make dinner reservations somewhere special.
5. Give a handmade gift. Nothing says "I care" like something made by hand.
6. Plan a romantic evening of dinner, dancing and a hand-holding stroll through the park. Then return to the place of your proposal and ask your spouse to marry you all over again.
7. Write a letter from the heart, describing what this first month has meant to you. You can't buy a better gift.
8. Prolong the celebration. After a night out, spontaneously book a room in a fine hotel and wake up to a champagne breakfast.

Tips & Warnings

• You can transform any item into a sentiment of romance by personalizing it. Mark the anniversary of your first date each month on a calendar and it becomes a message that says, “I look forward to spending these times with you.”
