The Best Anniversary Gifts for Him Your Husband Is Going to Love (2024)

When it comes to picking the perfect present, anniversaries have a new level of complexity. Unlike birthdays or Christmas presents there’s a certain degree of sentimentality with wedding anniversaries. Whether it’s two years or ten, it’s an important milestone for any couple. You’ve declared you’re undying love for each other, and somehow, despite all the ridiculous divorce statistics out there, you’ve made it!

So how do you find something that symbolises how much he means to you? We’ve got just the list for you – the ultimate list of special anniversary gifts for men who have just about everything.

1st Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him

A Gin and Tonic Masterclass at Skylon

Located in the Royal Festival Hall in the Southbank Centre, Skylon is a sophisticated, sleek and trendy bar that’s perfect for a special occasion. Bask in the floor-to-ceiling windows as you uncover the true spirit of gin with an interactive masterclass. If your hubby is a gin lover this experience has it all – romantic views, some of London’s best gin and best of all, you’ll learn how to recreate your favourite tipple at home.

Eighteen Year Old Scotch Whisky Tasting

Fine whisky is always a safe anniversary gift for him if it’s a spirit that he enjoys. A bottle of single malt will do nicely, but what’s even better is the opportunity to taste a selection of ultra-premium whiskies. Tucked neatly above an unassuming whisky shop called the Vintage House, the Soho Whisky Club is a member’s only bar exclusive to true whisky lovers. This experience includes a unique tasting of 18-year-old whiskies from the five regions of Scotland, stocking over 600 types of whisky. He’ll uncover the different flavour profiles of each geographical stamp as he works his way through the tastings.

A Fine Scented Candle

Wax is the traditional 16th anniversary gift, but a luxury scented candle is a lovely option regardless of how long you’ve been married. One of our favourite anniversary gifts for him would be a candle from New York City-based La Botica. We recommend Casablanca, which is scented with fig leaf, blackcurrant, coconut and cedarwood. It’s fresh and summery, with just a touch of mystery.

2nd Wedding Anniversary Gifts for Him

Clay Pigeon Shooting At Bisley Shooting Ground

Located just outside central London, Bisley Camp is a world-famous clay pigeon shooting destination.

From tea and cakes on arrival to the glorious countryside, it’s an ideal getaway for a romantic day of fun.

Michelin Star Dining & Beer Pairing

If beer is the way to your husband’s heart, this will be a night to remember. Enjoy a seven-course Michelin-starred tasting menu for two at Alyn Williams at the Westbury. Each dish is expertly paired with a beer, taking the experience to new heights. London’s craft beer movement has exploded after the last few years, and the result is truly delicious. Paired with fine-dining and the luxurious setting – it’s worthy of such a special occasion.

Personal Fragrance Profiling

If he’s a man who likes to smell good, let your anniversary gift for him give him the chance to find his perfect fragrance. Book him for a personal fragrance profiling at Penhaligon’s, the prestigious perfumers that hold royal warrants granted by the Duke of Edinburgh and the Prince of Wales. He’ll receive the attention of a fragrance expert as well as a bottle of his best scent.
It’s a luxuriously different wedding anniversary gift that will leave him with a fragrant reminder of your love.

It’s the perfect way to store and to display his treasured timepieces, and he’s sure to beam with pride whenever he reveals that it was a gift from his life partner.

Vineyard Tour, Tasting, and Lunch

There are three ways you can approach anniversary gift ideas if he’s an oenophile. The first is to order a bottle – or a case – of a wine that he will be happy to pop in the cellar.

The second is to give him something that lets him enjoy his favourite tipple all the more, such as a decanter or a wine preserver.

The third, and possibly our favourite, is to take him for a tour, a wine tasting, and lunch at Terlingham Vineyard. The family-run boutique farm in the Kent countryside offers exquisite views of the Channel, making it a fabulous spot to remember your wedding day.

Temperature Control Smart Mug

If he loves his hot beverages, the Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2, which works in conjunction with a mobile app, will ensure his tea, coffee, or hot chocolate is always hot enough for him.
