What Is the Gift for a Second Year Marriage Anniversary?
The traditional second anniversary wedding gift is cotton, which can come in a variety of different forms. As a modern alternative, some couples choose to give china or other gifts for second wedding anniversaries.

Hammock

Add an oversized pillow to make your gift even more comfortable. A cotton hammock makes a great second wedding anniversary gift. Choose a romantic two-person hammock you can relax in on a summer afternoon. Give a heavy, durable hammock that will last for years. Surprise your spouse by setting the hammock up in your backyard with a book, cheese and wine to enjoy in the hammock.
Bathrobe
-
Monogrammed bathrobes are a great cotton gift for your second wedding anniversary. Matching cotton bathrobes are romantic and comfortable. Bathrobes can be personalized with initials, names or "Mr." and "Mrs." Choose high-quality robes that are plush and luxurious. To make your gift even more special, add a pair of slippers or tuck a gift certificate to a spa in the robe's pocket.

Bed Linens

Luxurious new bed linens are a romantic and cozy second wedding anniversary gift. Monogrammed bed linens add personalization. Choose soft, high thread count linens that match your bedroom decor.
China

As an alternative to cotton, many couples give china as a gift for their second wedding anniversaries. Give a place setting or serving piece that matches your wedding china, or give a decorative or personalized plate or platter to display in your home. For an extra special gift, surprise your spouse with a candlelit dinner served on the new china.
