We had a quicky marriage and went out to brunch w/ our parents and witnesses after our vows. So, no wedding cake for us. So, for my first anniversary gift my husband had taken a photo of my wedding ring set to a cake maker (kind of like the ones you see on Ace of Cakes and Cake Boss) and had her design a cake to match my wedding set. It was the most amazing thing ever! And, it was delicious! :)

We've stuck to the traditional themes for the past 4 years. For the "paper" 1-year anniversary, he had a photo-book made of our dating years up through our honeymoon. He also had stationary made with our wedding monogram printed on it, and custom pub coasters made (we entertain a lot) with our monogram.
For "cotton" he gave me tickets to see original "cotton club" artist, Phoebe Snow at a jazz club, monogrammed cotton sheets, pillow cases and towels - an a cotton douvet with a Hawaiian themed print (our honeymoon destination).
Our "leather" anniversary - he gave me a beautiful leather strapped watch, and we stayed the night in the hotel where we spent our wedding night.
He's a keeper.
I'll share the best gift I've given: For our "cotton" anniversary, I gave my husband two tickets to the Cotton Bowl game in Texas (we live in the Pacific Northwest) for him and his best friend to attend, and one night in a hotel. I stayed home with the stepkids while he had a vacation with his buddy. Pretty sure that earned me a nice fluffy cloud in heaven. ;)
