This Year's Anniversary at Home ♡

Traditional ways to celebrate anniversaries include traveling, dining out, and visiting theme parks.

However, in the post-COVID world, it seems that more couples are opting to spend their anniversary at home.

That said, it can be challenging to figure out how to make this ordinary space feel like a "special occasion."

In this article, we will share ideas for celebrating your anniversary at home.

How to Celebrate Your Anniversary at Home ① Private Chef

On your anniversary, you definitely want to enjoy delicious food.

More couples are making use of "private chefs" who come to their home and prepare meals for them ♡

It's the best when freshly cooked dishes are brought to your table while you wait!

Some services even provide the dishes for you.

If you have small children, being at home may actually be more comfortable than going to a restaurant.

How to Celebrate Your Anniversary at Home ② Catering / Takeout

Another idea is to use catering or takeout services from restaurants. It's nice because it's more casual than hiring a private chef.

With the budget you might spend on a fancy anniversary dinner, you can enjoy takeout from well-known or high-end restaurants.

To add to the festive atmosphere, why not decorate the table with flowers or serve the food on your favorite dishes?

How to Celebrate Your Anniversary at Home ③ Review Wedding Albums / DVDs

Spend some time reminiscing by reviewing your wedding album or watching your wedding DVD together.

This is something you can do at home, as opposed to traveling or dining out.

Looking back at the recorded footage and photos can help you recall the emotions you felt when you made your vows.

In the busy pace of daily life, it's easy to overlook these moments, so it might be nice to make this a tradition for your anniversary ♡

How to Celebrate Your Anniversary at Home ④ Home Photo Shoot

Here's an idea for taking photos at home.

There are likely few couples who have taken anniversary photos in their living space. Why not challenge yourselves to do it on your anniversary? ♡

A great idea is to take a "love story photo" holding past pictures of the two of you.

You could hold your wedding photos this year, and then hold the same photos again next year for a repeated trend.

It’s wonderful to capture family history in a single shot.

How to Celebrate Your Anniversary at Home ⑤ Gift Exchange

I want to make it a habit to exchange gifts on our anniversary ♡

The first year is celebrated as paper, the second year as cotton. How about choosing gifts that correspond to those themes?

Since you are spending your anniversary at home, you might want to allocate a higher budget for gifts to make it even more special ♡

How to Celebrate Your Anniversary at Home ⑥ Animal Crossing Wedding

If you play "Animal Crossing: New Horizons," consider having an in-game wedding as part of your celebration ♡

It feels lovely, like a vow renewal ceremony where couples reaffirm their love.

And thinking about the venue decoration, dresses, and hairstyles sounds like a lot of fun!
