Anniversary gift list
An anniversary gift list for the two of you
First year married, ten years together or a silver anniversary: list what you would actually love, share the link, and let everyone reserve a gift without overlapping.
Why build your anniversary list with What I Wish?
One list for both of you
Things for the home, a weekend away or a group fund for the trip you keep postponing, all in one place.
No duplicate gifts
Once someone reserves a gift it disappears for everyone else. No two identical sets of glasses.
Guests need no account
Send the link to the dinner group chat and everyone reserves from their phone, nothing to install.
How it works
Build the list
Paste links from any store or write ideas: experiences, something for the home, a contribution to the trip.
Share the link
Send it to the people celebrating with you, through whatever channel you already use.
Everyone reserves
Guests pick what to give and the reservation shows up in real time.
What to put on an anniversary gift list
It depends on the year and on how you celebrate. Early anniversaries tend to be about things the home still lacks; milestone years call for an experience or a trip that justifies several people chipping in.
What always helps: mix price ranges, add one or two group options, and note details like sizes, colors or dates. Every guest finds something within reach and nobody has to guess.
Wedding anniversary: from paper to gold
Each year has a traditional material (paper, cotton, wood, silver, gold) and some people use it as the theme for the gift. It works as a guide, but what helps a gift-giver most is knowing what the couple wants, not the material of the year.
Add one item that plays with the tradition and, next to it, the concrete things you would use. When family opens the link they see both and pick.
Dating anniversary: gifts from two friend groups
On a dating anniversary the gifts often come from both sets of friends, and each group coordinates on its own. The usual result is two identical gifts or one nobody asked for.
A single link fixes that. Both groups see the same list, reservations update instantly, and the surprise stays intact: the couple knows something was reserved, not who chose it.
Group gifts: the trip, the course or the big piece of furniture
Milestone anniversaries are the classic moment for a gift too big for one person. With group gifting in What I Wish several people contribute to the same item.
If you prefer to keep it simple, list the big item next to a couple of affordable alternatives so each guest can choose within their budget.
Anniversary gift list FAQ
Does it work for dating anniversaries and wedding anniversaries?
Yes. The list is the same; what changes is what you put in it. It works for a first year together, a silver anniversary and any anniversary you celebrate with other people.
Does one of us create the list or both?
One of you creates it from their account and you can build it together from the same phone or computer. Guests do not need an account to view it or reserve.
Can we add products from different stores?
Yes. Paste the product link from any online store or type the idea by hand, like a dinner or a weekend away. The list is not tied to a single retailer.
What happens if two people want to give the same gift?
The first one to reserve keeps it and the item shows as reserved for everyone else in real time. For something big, mark it as a group gift so several people can contribute.
