Paper has forever been a special way to celebrate and commemorate love. From love letters to the magic of wedding paper details, passion and paper have always gone hand in hand. It’s no surprise that to mark a couple’s first anniversary, traditional gift guides suggest a paper present. From photo books to personalised notebooks, we’ve gathered the best paper anniversary gifts for all kinds of couples.
A personalised photo book
Creating a photo album featuring some of your favourite moments together – holidays, special dates or even your wedding – is a simple but meaningful first anniversary gift. Add captions alongside your pictures, like the song that was playing at the time the photo was taken, or shared in-jokes between the two of you.
Couple's notecards
As a newly-wed couple, gifting each other a set of personalised notecards is the perfect way to symbolise your joint life together. Pick a design that references your wedding stationery, or personalise with your favourite photo of the two of you. They’re ideal for sending notes of love or exciting announcements to family and friends.
A personalised notebook
Our notebooks are a great way to show your partner that you know them better than anyone else. Personalise with the nickname you gave them, a photo of the two of you, or words to encourage their next big goal.
A gift set
Beautifully boxed and ready to go, our gift sets are perfect for low-effort, high-impact first anniversary gifts. Pieces of Papier have been perfectly paired, with sets for partners who love to plan or those who need a little encouragement.
Recipe journals
As a couple, it’s customary to collect the recipes you both love. From your go-to Sunday lunch to the midweek meal you always come back to, a recipe journal can house all your favourite things to cook. For bonus points, handwrite the recipes in for your partner, filling the pages with your culinary memories as a couple.
Photo prints
Remember the moments that made you into the couple you are today. Our framed photos are printed on gallery-quality paper and come in a solid wooden frame. Choose to focus on one hero shot, or pick your favourite memories with a multi-frame photo print.
