Modern Gifts
“The 20th anniversary is incredibly special as we know,” says gift expert Elisabeth Jones-Hennessy, Founder & CEO of GiftMeChic. “Since the modern gift of this occasion is platinum, I’d probably go with a piece of jewelry or a beautiful frame with your photo as a couple (perhaps add a photoshoot experience to go along with it)," she says.
Interests and Hobbies
Jones-Hennessy advises to consider your partner’s lifestyle, favorite activities, and fashion choices. “Once you’ve put some thought into this, take one of your answers and expand upon it,” she says. “For example, does your partner obsess over horoscopes? If so, how about an astrology reading? If your partner does yoga, sign them up for a few classes at their favorite studio. Whatever you choose, if time, energy and thought are involved, your partner will appreciate the gift no matter what.”
