The traditional first anniversary gift is paper, while the modern gift is a clock. Paper anniversary gifts symbolize the blank page your new marriage gives you, while a clock is said to mark the time you've spent together. Both the traditional and modern routes are great starting points when it comes to considering first anniversary gift ideas, but you can take inspiration from other first-year symbols too.
Gold is the traditional first anniversary metal, both yellow and gold are the first anniversary colors, and carnations are the year's designated flower. To give you a helping hand, we've picked some of our favorite gifts below honoring these special themes, as well as some alternative ideas.
Need some ideas for celebrating a marriage that's officially one year in? Whether you're a traditionalist or fancy yourself as more of a modernist, these are the best first anniversary gifts for your married friends or other half. (Plus, some alternative picks for those who prefer to go their own route.)
Paper gifts for your first anniversary don't come much sweeter than this unusual artwork.

Your vows are something you'll treasure forever. This unique paper anniversary gift allows you to show them off on either side of your names and wedding date in a framed print.

Blend two traditional one-year anniversary gift themes in one with this pretty gold watch. While it's made out of gold-plated stainless steel rather than solid gold (hence the affordable price tag), it still looks sleek and stylish. The allover gold tone feels elegant and polished. If that sounds like your spouse's style, go ahead and spoil them. Trust us, they'll love this modern first anniversary gift.
Now that you've given your other half a ring, they need somewhere safe to store it. If they haven't got around to picking up a ring holder over the last year, now's your chance to surprise them with a special one.

You're letting them know that you still do (and always will), plus it keeps with the one-year anniversary theme thanks to the rose gold hue. It's a particularly thoughtful gift for a spouse who frequently has to remove their wedding ring to keep it safe (e.g. for work).

Top tip: A lot of newlyweds will leave their wedding registry active for up to a year after the big day.
