Wedding Anniversary Ideas For Forgetful Husbands
So you are commuting to work, sitting at your desk, in a business meeting or thumbing through your day planner when you get a nagging feeling that you have forgotten something. Something significant about today…
You slap your forehead as the light dawns with the realisation that you have forgotten your anniversary was today and then you break out into a cold sweat as you rack your now blank panic struck brain for wedding anniversary ideas.
I am not going to lecture you about the consequences of such an oversight, besides you are probably already conjuring up images of coming home to the hurt ice maiden that was your loving wife.
STOP whatever you are doing and act immediately!
Seven Wedding Anniversary Ideas To Do Immediately
- If she has a cellular phone: text her with a love note
- If she has access to email: send her an email, an e-card, or better yet a love poem.
- Ring the florist and arrange a one hour delivery of a bunch of her favourite flowers – they don’t have to be roses unless roses are her favourite. This will probably be more expensive than if you had planned ahead. (Serves you right!)
- Order a Gift Basket and have it express delivered
- Book a Dinner for two at a Restaurant. If you are lucky you may get a reservation at her favourite one, if not, be creative in your choice; how about the first restaurant you took her to when you were dating? Organise a baby-sitter if you have children.
- Meet her for lunch: take her somewhere or pick up a few things at a Deli on the way and have a romantic picnic in a local park.
- Arrange to get off work early so you can “prepare”.
- Go shopping for a gift, jewellery is always welcome. Check out the Anniversary Gifts Guide for some ideas.
Five Wedding Anniversary Ideas To Do At Home
- Arrange a candle-lit dinner. If you are no good in the kitchen, pick up a three course takeaway dinner (NOT McDonalds etc) on the way home and serve on a well laid out table with her favourite wine. Set the mood with scented candles some soft romantic music playing in the background.
- Weather permitting, have your romantic dinner outside under the stars with garden lights or an outdoor brazier burning
- Prepare a candle-lit champagne bubble bath. Remember the bubbly, candles, bath salts and bubble bath. Sweeten the deal with a gift of lingerie and a night she’ll never forget.
- Replay your wedding video and/or go through your wedding photo album together with a glass of wine.
- Snuggle up in front of the fire if you have one, or in bed, in front of the television with a bottle of wine and some sweet treats and watch her favorite romantic movie.
Hopefully you will have swept her off her feet and survived this Wedding Anniversary unscathed.
Make your next anniversary unforgettable with a little planning and preparation.
