A Gift For: Your Parents’ Big Wedding Anniversary

Shopping Mistress, the personal shopping and bespoke wedding gift list service - aka Gift Mistress - is ready to solve your purchasing dilemmas for those tricky friends, relatives and gift giving occasions.

A gift for your parents’ big wedding anniversary

For a milestone 30th, 40th or even the golden event, we think the parents deserve something seriously special to celebrate putting up which each other for so long! Here are some wedding anniversary gift ideas to show how much you admire them.

Chances are steak knives weren’t on their wedding list all those years ago and they’re not something they’re likely to have bought themselves.

Given there’s nothing like delicious steak, fine week and family for the perfect get-together, why not treat them to a set of Laguiole steak knives (pictured left). Smart and prized to those in the know.

For a more traditional table gift, you may prefer something in solid sterling silver. Silver coasters is an obvious but if they’re already kitted out then why not add a “twist” to the silver gift with a stunning honey pot (pictured right) or marmalade pot with matching spoon. A wonderful addition to the breakfast table.

Go one better than a photo frame and family snap by compiling a whole photo album of favourite family pictures from years gone by.

It might involve a little work, but the thought behind it will be much appreciated. We love Noble Macmillan for traditional albums (pictured left).

If they’re heading towards or enjoying retirement but have a little time on their hands or, as a family you love nothing more than games on cold winter days or wet weeks in Cornwall then fill time with only the very best.

This stunning black leather Scrabble Set (pictured right) is a real collectors item.

Finally for those parents that have it all, send them out for a fabulous celebratory meal and a bit of quality time.

Book them a table at top London restaurants, Tom Aikens or J Sheekey, or better still, save some money, get your apron on and treat them to a fine lobster (pictured left) candle lit dinner in their own home.
