If you don't want to break the budget, an activity day out through providers like Red Letter Days can allow both of you to enjoy your anniversary. Special offers on events or activities that would otherwise be out of budget are also worth keeping your eyes peeled for.
If you want to celebrate a milestone anniversary in style, you'll probably going to want to go the extra mile with a luxurious gift idea or experience days. Many people are buying presents on a budget though so it's important to take a look at any special offers available. Don't get coupons or vouchers confused with the term 'special offer' though as various restaurants and entertainment venues offer exclusive discounts or deals.
If the thought of arts and crafts leaves you in the foetal position, then celebrate your anniversary in an alternative fashion with an activity day. In most cases, a day out spending time together will cost far cheaper than any gift he/she will want, and it means you can both spend more time making memories together and enjoying each other's company.
Spending time searching for that perfect gift can be avoided too and you'll be able to find something suitable for you both, from athletic days to cultural experiences. Spending the day learning to surf in Cornwall or Cleveland for example is great for couples that enjoy an adrenaline rush. Why not sign up for membership with English Heritage and spend the day exploring one of Britain's iconic historic monuments if you would rather have a quieter (and drier) day out together.
If you are looking to impress him/her, or are short on time, take a 30-minute cookery master class together under the watchful eye of a Michelin starred chef at L'atelier des Chefs. Once finished with the cooking of the meal, you can both sit down and enjoy your creations along with wine and a dessert.
