    Sentimental Gift Ideas






    • Create a sentimental gift"" for a couple renewing their vows. Enlarge and frame a picture of the couple on their wedding day or create a scrapbook with photos of their wedding. If a special song or poem was used at their wedding, write the words on pretty paper and frame it as a decoration for their home. Someone who is savvy at creating video presentations can create a video montage of photos of the couple. Gather photos of the couple from the time they met through the present time and set it to music. Include video clips from the wedding as well.






    Anniversary Year Gift






    • There are traditional gifts"" for each year of marriage. Find out how many years the couple who is renewing their vows has been married and consult a list of gifts for inspiration. For instance, the traditional gifts for a 10th anniversary include diamond jewelry, daffodils, aluminum or tin. A gift for a vow renewal for a couple who has been married for 10 years could include a daffodil plant for their home, a set of diamond earrings for her and diamond cuff links for him or an aluminum sculpture for their home.






     


    Experience Gifts






    • Give the couple renewing their wedding vows an experience"" gift. Buy a gift card from a limousine service, the couple's favorite restaurant and a local hotel so the couple can have a special night out on the town. Another way to create an experience for the couple is to create a gift basket in a theme. A couple who enjoys golf will appreciate a gift basket with new golf balls and a gift card to a pro-shop. If the couple likes movies, buy movie tickets and some snacks for a gift basket. Or, simply invite the couple over for a homemade dinner and night of games. Put the invitation into a card and give it to them on the day of their renewal.






    Homemade and Other Gift Ideas






    • A couple renewing their vows might appreciate a homemade gift. Bake a cake or special dessert for the couple to enjoy the day after the renewal ceremony. A homemade card or a heartfelt letter of admiration for the couple is another thoughtful gift. If the couple has a particular need for their home, such as a new coffee maker, it is appropriate to purchase this item as a gift to them on their wedding vow renewal day.

    Ok, miscommunication. Got it. I was concerned.

    Thank you, sweet Ducky!

    The gift depends on your budget, the number of years the couple has been married, or their ages.  Some older couples are "newlyweds" if they've been married previously or married later in life. 


    I'm not a big fan of "stuff" for older people, so a gift certificate is a good idea to me.  If you have the funds available, or can "go in" on a gift with other(s), a weekend getaway would be very cool.   If the couple golfs, for example, a getaway to a golf course resort they might never visit/play otherwise would be awesome. 

    I was a flower girl when my aunt and uncle got married! At their 50th anniversary party, I took a basket of rose petals and sprinkled them on the dance floor as they they danced their first dance. It was quite appreciated and everyone loved it!

    I can't think of a nicer gift than a happy memory!

    I would give them a free coupon for an initial psychiatric examination.

    Aren't you the big giver! :)

    Alright...now you embarrassed me. I'd pay for the second one!

    Buy them a $ 25.  gift card to a trendy restaurant. I 've done that and they liked it.
