What to give

Budget

  • If they like to knit, give them a whole basket full of quality yarns.
  • Add some personalized touches to their desk.

 

Splurge

  • Spoil them with something made from the finest cashmere.
  • Give a modern desktop: a laptop or tablet.

 

What to write

What to write in a 7th anniversary card

  • “Remember (insert silly memory here)? That wouldn’t have been nearly as fun without you!”
  • “I definitely didn’t break a mirror on our wedding day, because this has been seven years of awesome luck for me.”
  • “This right here is what a great marriage is: finding joy, facing trouble and loving each other along the way.”

 

What to write about in a 7th anniversary love letter

  • Seven of your favorite dates together
  • Seven ways they’re super thoughtful
  • Seven of your funniest mishaps (now that they’re in the past!)

 

How to celebrate

  • Get a puzzle made out of one of your favorite pictures of the two of you, then spend an evening (or several) working on it.
  • Rent a convertible for the day and take a long, scenic drive. Bring a wool blanket to snuggle up in, since wool is the traditional seventh anniversary gift.
  • Play like kids at an arcade, or find a go-kart track and race each other.
