Personalised Anniversary Gifts

The best personalised anniversary gifts for him or for her start with one day you both remember. A framed print from the honeymoon. A metal print of your first front door. A jigsaw of the street you first lived on. Husband or wife, all three come from photos you already have, which is rather the point.

The traditional wedding anniversary gifts by year are: 1st paper, 2nd cotton, 3rd leather, 4th fruit and flowers, 5th wood, 6th sugar or iron, 7th wool or copper, 8th bronze, 9th pottery, 10th tin, 11th steel, 12th silk, 13th lace, 14th ivory, 15th crystal, 20th china, 25th silver, 30th pearl, 40th ruby, 50th gold and 60th diamond. A Printerpix photo book is made of paper, so it fits the first.

A 1 year anniversary gift, or a 1st wedding anniversary gift, has paper as its theme. Fill a Printerpix photo book with the first year together, from the wedding morning or the first date to the first Sunday at home. Write a line of your own on the opening page. For a six-month anniversary with a boyfriend or girlfriend, a jigsaw of the first date makes a lighter gift.

Silver is the traditional 25 year wedding gift, and plenty of 25th wedding anniversary gifts nod to it. A different idea is a Printerpix canvas print that sets the wedding photo beside one from this year, so twenty-five years of marriage sit together in a single picture.

Gold is the traditional theme for a 50th, or golden, wedding anniversary. The best 50th wedding anniversary gifts also show who came along in those fifty years: a Printerpix photo book with a chapter per decade, or a blanket with the children and grandchildren on it. Ask each of them for one photo and one line.

A good 60th (diamond) anniversary gift for a couple, your parents or your grandparents puts the wedding photo where it can be seen again. Hang a canvas print of the wedding day over the fireplace, or make a photo book of the christenings, holidays and Sunday lunches that came after it.

A good 3 year anniversary gift nods to leather, a 4 year anniversary gift to fruit and flowers, a 5 year anniversary gift to wood and a 10 year anniversary gift to tin. To most men and women, the photos matter more than the material. A framed print of your first home, or a Printerpix photo book of the years so far, marks any of them.

Modern lists swap some traditional themes for newer ones: clocks for the 1st, china for the 2nd, crystal for the 3rd and silverware for the 5th. The traditional UK names for later years are coral for the 35th, sapphire for the 45th, emerald for the 55th and platinum for the 70th. Whichever list you follow, a Printerpix photo book or canvas print of your years together suits any of them.

You need fewer than you think. Plenty of these take a single picture, and some take none at all, the ones built from names, dates and a few lines you write yourself.

Yes. Nothing is printed until you have seen a preview and confirmed it, so you can change the photos, the words or the product itself up to that point.

Tell us. Every order is covered by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee: not right? We’ll reprint it or refund you.

Yes, that is the whole point. Your original photo is never altered; whatever you make is produced alongside it, so you keep both.
