An experience instead of a thing

Write each other a letter about your favorite moments so far.

Make it personal

Pair the theme with something only you two would understand: a place, a song, a date. A short handwritten note listing a favorite memory from each year costs nothing and is often the part people keep. Need words? Try the message writer.

These are the themes most widely published in the US. Lists in the UK and elsewhere differ for a few years; follow whichever your family uses.
