A different material for each wedding anniversary?
In Europe, different materials are used for every wedding anniversary. Some you’ve probably heard of, think a copper wedding on a 12.5-year anniversary or a grandparents’ diamond wedding! Whether you are looking for traditional gift ideas or want to give something unique and personal, MrStarsky can help you find a unique anniversary gift.
What is a nice wedding gift?
Of course, on a wedding day you give a gift to the bride and groom – sometimes there is a list of wishes (or an ‘envelope’ is requested) and sometimes it is nice to surprise the bride and groom. What we are also increasingly seeing is a gift given on wedding anniversaries – spouses surprising each other, the witnesses giving a gift or dear family members wanting to dwell on the big day.
Our starry sky posters can also be given as wedding gifts! This gives you a unique surprise to celebrate love. This can be to celebrate your own anniversary but is even more fun to give as a gift to a (newlywed) couple!
A unique wedding anniversary gift tip:
What is also a nice idea is to give a present for each year in the anniversary material.
