First Anniversary gift ideas?

I can't believe its only a little more than 2 months to our first anniversary...it still feels like the wedding was just yesterday! Now I'm starting to stress about a gift. I thought I had the perfect idea...I had seen a poster-sized personalized world map that we could put pins in all the places we travel together. Too perfect maybe...my sister bought one for us for Christmas! So I need a new idea. I had done a small photo book of 2019 as a Christmas gift already. I'm not sure I have the time or money for a boudoir shoot. I know the traditional is paper, but I'm not totally hung up on that. Because of leap year, the date actually falls on a Monday, so we may take the day off to spend together, but no plans to go away, we've decided later in spring is a better time to travel. Any suggestions?

    Would your husband ever have a need to wear cuff links? I love these:

    I think tickets to a game or event make a good paper gift

    I got my husband this for our first anniversary:


    The Night Sky


    It's a map of the stars on the day that you were married. I think it's really sweet and something to display forever.

    I’m going to have our vows written on pictures to hang in our bedroom. There are several shops on Etsy that do it.

    I'm going to get our vows printed on a framed photo to put in our bedroom, then we are going to take a vacation for the weekend!

    During my vows I was so nervous I missed a couple lines. And those were the lines that were really heartfelt. Well, I was planning to get them engraved on a wallet for him
    There's a lot of Etsy stores that do hand engraved things on leather goods and it could even be in your own handwriting

    If your husband likes art check out www.mydreamlines.com. They can create sketch of your wedding dress and his suit. My husband gave this to me and we both love it so much.
