Title: Twentieth wedding anniversary ideas
Post by: SamLouise on February 01, 2012, 21:12:17
It's my twentieth wedding anniversary this year and traditionally it's china.

Hmmmm, I'm a bit stumped as to what china gift I can give to my husband! 

Perhaps a holiday in China - that works for me! ;D ;D Just kidding of course.

The cogs of my imagination are well and truly stuck with this one, does anybody have any ideas, please?

For our 20th I got my little westie ::). Oh it was such hard work getting OH to agree but so worth while ;D. It's eldest daughters 20th this year & born around the same time as you Sam. You are thinking well ahead.
Any suggestions for a 45th ;D?

Thanks for the replies so far.  I'm laughing at Ace's suggestion.  Ace I fear I'd look more Daffyd from Little Britain and less Lucy Liu :-X ;D

I really like the idea of the rose and the lanterns and congratulations to you, Manic :)

GJ, it's not for a few months yet but I do like to prepare, lol ;D

Dinner out at a Chinese restaurant. Does he garden? Lot's of plants come from china.

It's my 12th (2nd time round) and now I share it with the anniversary of the total destruction of my home city. Including, incidentally the Church I was married in first time round! I completely forgot my anniversary last year because of the shock I guess.

I never was one for presents-a nice bottle of wine and a few words---"20 years and it`s hard to believe because I adored you from day one and every year I love you more"

You could get the grandkids (if you have any) to decorate a set of china with there hand prints etc?

Or get a mug with some wedding photos on?

Nice Hotel for the weekend..........we often used to do this though money not quite so free flowing as it was :(

We loved going to York.......but this year we are going to try and go to Paris.

We are a bit middle aged for the romance thing but we will give it our best shot LOL
