How to choose the right 30th wedding anniversary gift for your partner

Know their love language

By this point in your marriage, we’re guessing you know how your partner likes to give and receive love. When in doubt, considering the five love languages can help you decide what gift is best for the one you love. Do they prefer words of affirmation (which may mean a more sentimental gift) over material items (such as clothes or jewelry)? Or, would they prefer an act of service, such as a gift card for a massage or a homemade voucher to do household chores? Ultimately, knowing how your partner likes to feel loved will help you narrow down your choices.

Consider your budget, and know theirs too

The items on our list span a wide range of prices, from $15 to over $3,000. Be sure you and your spouse are aligned on how much you’d like to spend on each other this year—nobody likes to feel like they underspent on a gift after receiving a splurge-worthy item!
