Your girlfriend will expect to celebrate the occasion of your first anniversary.

As your one-year anniversary approaches, your girlfriend will expect to celebrate the occasion, a significant milestone to what could be many more years together. What you choose to do to commemorate your one-year anniversary will depend greatly one what you two enjoy doing together and what you think she would consider thoughtful. A gift for the woman you love will show, in part, how much you value your relationship together.

Recreate Your First Date

Take your girlfriend to the place where you two first met or the place for your first date. Relive the moment the two of you first fell for one another. If you first went to a special restaurant, visit it again and present her with the anniversary gift at the place you first met. If she enjoys jewelry, purchase a necklace or nice pair of earrings. Your individual budget will determine what you feel is an appropriate amount to spend on a gift.

Romantic Weekend Getaway

Take a trip someplace quiet for a weekend getaway. Treat her to a spa session or massage. There are many hotel options for romantic getaways depending on your region. Some include these services. A getaway will allow you to spend quality time away with your girlfriend in a new location. Take her out to see the sights of the area and go shopping or to a museum. Be tourists for the weekend.

Theater

If your girlfriend is a fan of live theater, she will most likely enjoy a night out on the town. You could take her out to dinner and a show. It will provide for a nice night out that is sure to make her feel appreciated. Instead of the theater, you can also get tickets to a concert or comedy club or another show she would like. Your girlfriend may prefer to go out for the night to something like a play or musical instead of receiving an actual present.

Flowers

If you want to play things safe, you can always have a large bouquet of flowers sent to her. Send the flowers to her job if the anniversary date falls on a day she is at work. Many women love receiving flowers at their office. Send the flowers with a few anniversary balloons and a stuffed bear. Florists usually have these options available as add-ons to the floral arrangements.
