4th wedding anniversary

bigpants, 8 July, 2008 at 19:40 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 14

I'm confused...I've just googled '4th wedding anniversary' and some sites say it's 'linen' some say 'flowers' others say ' fruit'.

What did you get hubby for your 4th anniversary?

    There's different lists but the main arethe traditional and modern ones, traditional is fruit / flowers, modern is appliances.

    As for what I got / gave, the answer is nothing as we stopped bothering with gifts after the first one! Our annivesary falls around a holiday weekend so we always go away.

    I know a lot of people stop buying presents, but I quite like giving HUBBY something - twee/twatish as it may be?

    It's our 4th this month Bigpants, been hard work getting here I can tell you lol!!

    MrSun will be lucky to get a box of maltesers, i'm completely skint. We'll be having a meal out and going dutch. I don't even consider the cotton/ruby/silver or whatever aspect of it, MrSun wouldn't have a clue about that anyway.

    Linen - get him an apron and tell him to do the dishes lol!

    We were on holiday in Cyprus for our 4th anniversary last month. Hubs (I'm kidding!) bought me some flowers when we got back, but for our actual anniversary we went out for a meal and drank loads of Long Island Ice Teas afterwards and watched the BB housemates go in ?

    Romance is clearly dead in the Peach household.

    We didn't do presents, or even cards for our 4th this year. But we did splash out on a trip to San Diego & Vegas. So I guess that counts?!

    I thought it was linen too btw

    Thanks for your replies - although it appears that I'm in the minority then when it comes to anniversary presents for 'hubby'. ? I enjoy buying him things so will keep thinking of something.

    BP, it's hard enough buying presents for him for his birthday (in a couple of weeks) and Christmas, never mind anniversary too! Wish it were more simple, but there you have it.

    We'd previously decided the holiday was present to each other enough. And as for cards - well they just didn't happen this year! Found him a great one for his birthday though!

    Given our bank balance I think we will go for the 'fruit and flowers' option for our 4th later this year. We both love fresh flowers in the house so it will be sometihng we will both appreciate and yet not too expensive.

    Would your hubby like some flowers too? Or maybe a gardening voucher to chose a plant?

    Peaches, men are diffiuclt to buy for so completely understand (and is why I'm struggling).

    Sunnystar, not sure I can wait for 60 years for a diamond either - I'm wonder whether 'hubby' will wrap a diamond necklace up in a linen pillowcase??!!

    It's our 5th on Saturday and we're not even going to buy a card for each other but we are going out for a nice meal. I see no point in buying each other a present for it.
