First Year Anniversary Gifts - Select A Winner

While traditionalists may think that they have to give the proper gift for each anniversary

, in this day and age, one year anniversary gifts do not have to be paper anymore. There are many great gifts for that special couple that can be paper, but they do not have to be limited to it. Take the time to find the perfect gift for the loving couple, even if it is not considered traditional.

Modernists consider the clock to be the proper one year anniversary present for the newly married couple. There are many different styles of clocks that can improve the look of the newlywed's home. The one clock that should be avoided is a simple alarm clock though. Let's face it, an alarm clock does not exactly scream "effort" on your part.

Instead, give the couple you care about a clock that is made of glass or framed in silver for a more contemporary look. A wall clock adds a beautiful touch to any room and a table top clock could be a beautiful accent for a bedroom or family room. Not only will they appreciate a gift that beautifies their home, but they will be reminded of your thoughtfulness whenever they check the time.

For the athletic couple, why not give them a clock that features their favorite team's mascot as a cool addition to their recreation room? They will be so excited to hang it up, and they are sure to be impressed with the personal touch to your gift. Also, you get the satisfaction of knowing that you gave a gift the couple will really love.

If you have trouble getting excited about the idea of giving a clock as a gift, give something that they will actually use. A newlywed couple may appreciate a gift card to pick up those few extra items that they did not receive from their registry. Most couples have to pinch pennies when they are starting out, and they will surely appreciate a little extra funding for their next shopping trip.

A quick online search is one easy way to find ideas for the couple who already has everything. Some couples have recently received a large number of wedding gifts, so it may be difficult to find a gift they would enjoy and have use for. This is especially challenging when trying to find a gift for a couple who lived together before their wedding and already had the essentials.

Just because it is the first anniversary does not mean that traditional one year anniversary gifts are a must. There are many great ideas that every couple is going to love. As long as you or they are not stuck on tradition, the only real thing that is important is that a gift is chosen that comes from the heart and that they will truly love.
