Romantic wedding anniversary lockdown ideas

6 replies

Primarily aimed at ladies on the board, but my wife and I have our wedding anniversary coming up in a little over a month. I'm guessing current coronavirus conditions will prevail. What could I do that would be romantic (she tells me I'm not romantic, but it's mostly because I'm rubbish at coming up with good ideas rather than a lack of willing...would be nice to show her I can do romantic!)?

The only thing I can think of is making a nice dinner. I can certainly do that, and get out some candles, but it all feels a bit pedestrian. Also, we have a baby, which may or may not be relevant, depeding on ideas.

Perhaps giving her a nice massage before bed, a lovely dinner with some wine or champagne, a movie you both enjoy. I think simply being at home at enjoying each other's company is the perfect way to celebrate. It doesn't have to be fancy.

Definitely get a card with a heart felt message in! You could upload a wedding photo.

How many year is it? Could you get a gift in that theme? I think a home spa (Only if she likes that sort of thing) would be good and lovely meal. Does she have a hobby? If so could you have a think of there is anything around that.

Do you video chat with family? My husbands sisters birthday is coming up and we were short of ideas but we thought that a surprise video conf with her with us all singing happy birthday would cheer her up and be funny. Not romantic I guess ... how about a classic mixtape? Your desert island discs? And of course a slideshow of photos.. did that for my husbands significant birthday and he was so happy with it.

A piece of jewelry? It doesn't need to be expensive but maybe a key charm, because we are in lockdown.

A card obviously and yes how many years are you celebrating?

just in my opinion, I am also a mom of a little one and our anniversary is actually tomorrow. For me personally what I would love is to be able to sleep in as much as I can for one, having the baby be taken care of so I can relax a little bit would be very nice. Making breakfast is always cute if you were able to. A bath in the afternoon that you draw for her would be awesome, I would also recommend if you can go on a walk with your family. And at night when the baby is down dinner, conversation a movie and in the night with great sex. In my opinion that is as romantic as you can get and as you need to be. Nothing shows I love you more than letting her has a day that is around her.
