Anniversary gift ideas?

[UNiQFashionista]

I hope this is the right thread,
But I need help with our upcoming 4 year anniversary, its on dec 15th and Im running out of ideas. Hubby has everything he wants (except for an aston martin, but i cant afford to buy him one yet)- so dont ask me what he needs- we are having our first baby the end of february..so i want this anniversary to be extra special.,..

Any ideas?

I was going to suggest a Bentley
what's your budget? A nice watch?
or a very nice espresso machine? (considering the new born will make you sleep less)
also there is a very nice cell phone...I forget the name but that's very nice.

One last weekend getaway before the new baby Maybe a spa with a special romantic couple package? Or a bed and breakfast???

hmm let me see
I did surprise him 2 weeks ago and we went on a trip to the seychelles- he had no idea up to the airport check in counter- so thats done
He's not into coffee- and I did consider a watch but it just seems soo common- its like if he gets me jewelery- ya its nice but there isnt much thought into it...
anything unique or special anyone of you have done to their partners?

maybe a special photograph of the two of you remade into a painting?

Maybe track down an autograph of his childhood hero? My dad almost cried when I gave him a signed photo of Mickey Mantle........

That's really sweet! A good idea, too.

 

[UNiQFashionista]

that sounds like a great idea!!!! im going to figure out who was his hero-

just asked him- he said hans solo- i googled him (im a bit clueless) and its a character from star wars? hmm?!

uniq. Does he wear any jewelry? Maybe some sort of special ring? Even if a watch is common, maybe have a lovely inscription on it? A really lovely meal/day out? tough! Since he has everything he wants I think finding something less material and something focused more around memories might be nicer.....

does he like wine? maybe a really nice vintage from the year you meet combined with something produced this year that will age well and you can share down the road?

edit: another thought! obviously he likes star wars so maybe something related to that?

Well Hans was played by Harrison Ford, so maybe his auto? And even better a photo of him as Solo if you can find it.

ok well he said he was over star treck- he did mention this tshirt that was big in japan a few years ago that had to do with star wars and che guevara (sp) dont ask-
Good news is
I bought him two things today
this phone that takes dual sim cards at the same time i found it at colette, and i got him a goyard mini wheelie in black with natural leather lining- its perfect for him when he travels for his laptop and all his carry ons- and easier on his back...
so these are two very nice things that i got and that eh needs
bad news is i already told him about them hahaaaaaaaaa
ill look for something special to add to the gifts

Jaeger-LeCoultre has some reverso models that can be engraved on the back (with a picture, for instance). I believe that there are some Jaeger recommended artists in Europe that you can locate and have the watch engraved. That will be really special.

 

[UNiQFashionista]

ooh that would be nice! a picture!

ill go to their store in place vendome and ask tomorrow

My brother has everything too and I baked him his favorite cake and decorated it really fun. Nothing too much but I think it's cute!

^new job? =)

maybe you can give him an experience brows, like.. hmmm. i dunno. if he's into Liverpool (football isnt really my thing, but that's a team.. right?), you could surprise him with a trip and tickets to a game or something?
