Anniversary

Anniversary Gifts and Flowers, Hand-Curated Since 1999

An anniversary is a quiet kind of milestone. No one else marks the day the way the two of you do, so the gift should feel like it was chosen for exactly this year, and no other. We have been curating anniversary gifts and flowers from our Cape Town studio since 1999, pairing hand-tied bouquets with gift boxes, pamper hampers and a bottle of something special so the whole gesture arrives together. Whether it is your first year or your fiftieth, every order is finished by hand with a free handwritten card. Order before 12pm for same-day delivery in Cape Town and Johannesburg, or send nationwide in 2 to 4 business days.

Anniversary Gifts by Year: Traditional Gifts for Every Milestone

Every anniversary year has its own tradition, from paper and cotton in the early years to silver, pearl and gold further down the road. You do not have to follow them, but they make a lovely starting point when you are stuck. A first anniversary suits something simple and personal, while a milestone year calls for more of an occasion. Our luxurious anniversary gifts by year guide breaks down the traditional gift for every year, so you can choose with meaning rather than guesswork, then browse the full anniversary gift boxes range to match it.

Anniversary Flowers to Mark the Occasion

Flowers are the heart of an anniversary. Our anniversary flowers lean into romance, from a lavish 50 Red Rose bouquet to the softer Pink Expression bouquet and the elegant Distinctly Dreamy bouquet. For something with real meaning, The Language of Love and the Passionate Luxury bouquet were made for the day. Browse our wider red roses, roses for sale and luxury flower bouquets ranges, and read the power of flowers for the sentiment behind the blooms.

Anniversary Gifts for Her and for Him

An anniversary gift should feel personal to the two of you. For her, our anniversary gifts for her range pairs blooms with pamper treats and gift boxes, and our gifts for her and gift boxes for her collections go further still. For him, our anniversary gifts for him range covers hampers, biltong, wine and even bold blooms like a Cape Town Protea bouquet he would never buy himself, with dedicated gift boxes for a husband and the trusty The Essentials Gift Box for Men reliable favourites. Not sure? A Luxury Florist Choice bouquet lets our team build something unforgettable from the best stems of the day.

Luxury Anniversary Gift Boxes, Hampers and Bubbly

When flowers alone are not quite enough, a gift box carries the occasion further. Pair a bouquet with a box from our romantic gift boxes range, add a hamper from gift hampers, or drop in a box of chocolate and sweets for the sweet tooth. A Country Garden bouquet paired with a bottle of bubbly makes a milestone feel like an event. Everything can be built up from our wider gift boxes range, and our gift basket ideas guide shows how we build a box that feels premium rather than predictable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best anniversary gifts?

The best anniversary gifts pair flowers with something to unwrap: a luxury bouquet with a gift box, a pamper hamper, or a bottle of bubbly. Since 1999 we have found that combining blooms with a thoughtful extra lands harder than either on its own, especially for a milestone year. A handwritten card, included free with every order, makes it personal.

What is the traditional gift for each anniversary year?

Each anniversary year has a traditional theme, such as paper for the first, cotton for the second, silver for the 25th and gold for the 50th. You can lean into the theme or simply send something they will love. Our luxurious anniversary gifts by year guide lists the traditional gift for every year, so you can choose with meaning.

What are good anniversary gifts for her?

For her, pair her favourite flowers with a pamper hamper, a luxury gift box, or a keepsake, finished with a handwritten card. A grand rose bouquet with a bottle of bubbly suits a milestone year. Our anniversary gifts for her range gathers the pieces she is most likely to love, so you can lead with what feels personal.

What are good anniversary gifts for him?

For him, choose something specific rather than generic: a curated gift box, a wine or snack hamper, quality biltong, or a bold bouquet he would never buy himself. Our anniversary gifts for him range covers exactly this, whether it is your first year or your fiftieth. Pairing a hamper with a handwritten card always lands well.

What flowers are best for an anniversary?

Red roses are the classic anniversary flower, symbolising lasting love, while pink roses, lilies and peonies suit a softer, romantic look. For a first anniversary, a lavish bouquet makes a statement; for later years, pair the flowers with a gift box. A florist choice bouquet is a safe bet if you are unsure, because our team builds it from the freshest stems of the day.

What do you get for a 25th or 50th anniversary?

A 25th (silver) or 50th (gold) anniversary calls for something generous: a grand rose bouquet, a luxury gift hamper, and a bottle of bubbly make a fitting celebration. These are milestone years, so lean into flowers and a keepsake to hold onto rather than something everyday. Add a handwritten card to make the moment personal.

What is the most important anniversary milestone?

Every anniversary matters, but the milestone years carry the most weight: the first sets the tone, the 10th and 25th (silver) mark serious commitment, and the 50th (gold) is the grand celebration. That said, the most important anniversary is the one you are celebrating now, so mark it with something generous and personal, whatever the number.

How do couples celebrate a decade anniversary?

Decade anniversaries, the 10th, 20th, 30th and beyond, tend to call for a bigger gesture: a grand bouquet, a luxury hamper, a bottle of something special, or a shared experience like a weekend away. Many couples pair a milestone gift with a night out or a celebration at home. A handwritten card and that year's traditional flower make it feel personal.

How much do anniversary gifts cost?

Our anniversary gifts suit a range of budgets, and every item shows its current price on its own card, kept up to date automatically. You can start with a simple bouquet or step up to a luxury flower-and-gift combination. Local delivery in Cape Town and Johannesburg is a flat R89.95.
