There is an element of joyfulness and playfulness in the first wedding anniversary. Everything is fresh and new, and each day brings new discoveries about love and life.

The gifts offered to the couple on their first wedding anniversary reflects the carefree nature of the relationship. There are tickets for the opera or concert for the couple's enjoyment.
