What to Look For in a 15th Anniversary Gift

Sentimentality

Sticking to tradition with a crystal gift is a great option and offers guidance on an anniversary gift, which is always helpful after over 10 years together. If you want to opt for something different, consider something sentimental that you know is important or dear to your partner. Consider your partner's interests and hobbies and find a suitable gift that aligns with those factors. This ensures your partner will enjoy the gifts for years and years.

Practicality

For both a crystal gift and beyond, choosing something practical is always a great idea. Perhaps you and your partner are moving to a new space. In that case, a new decor piece or set of wine glasses or cutlery would be practical and thoughtful. See if you can combine a practical gift with the tradition of crystal. If not, a practical gift still expresses thoughtfulness whether it adheres to traditions or not.

Price

Traditional gifts can get expensive, especially for the crystal tradition of 15 year anniversaries. Your budget is perhaps the most important factor to consider when purchasing a present. Once you decide your budget, you can then research the best way to spend your allotted money to find the perfect personal and thoughtful gift. And be sure to share your love and sentiments in a thoughtful card.
