soorajsrs, do not pumper your wife with something material. I mean, giving material things to your wifey might spoil her Besides your wife is understands your "pocket" Better get her to bed and do your thing!

pink flowers - this is not just a bunch of flowers but the most thoughtful way of celebrating birthday
oooopppppssss! ! I am not yet finish. You might add a bunch of flowers to be placed on the bedside table if you wish before you grab her on bed. My hubby did the same giving me flowers on my birthday and it is what is more important than buying expensive things. Just the thought of giving lovely flowers or making an effort is enough!

Congratulations.You really are a nice and happy couple.Why are you worrying?If she understands your financial condition,then I think,there's nothing for you to worry.And never forget one thing.Marriage is all about love.Money has nothing to do with it.Money is essential for survival.So we can't avoid it,but if your wife is aware of the weight on your pocket,then that's more than ok.You needn't give anything to your dear wife.Give her the most precious thing- your love.She will never forget it.And I am sure she would understand it.

Hi Soorja, Just buying and giving can be ignored and go for a economy dinner and and get something cheap but worth and memorable to her. It can be anything small and sweet but less costlier. Find somethig like and as it is your first in the series, think of something can be kept for long and can be preserved for ever. I am not suggesting anything because what comes your mind is the best and it should be of your own choice. My best wishes in advance. Nice day

No problem if you are really hard pressed then just join the 2 occasions to a single one and give a gift that is befitting 2 occasions ( you already saved). I understand what you mean and you want to give your wife the best, I'm like you, but if like you said your pocket is really empty then good wives understand, save for next year, promise , and do not break the promise.... or else haha...., I'm sure she will still understand cause she is a good wife

louievill: do not worry. somehow somebody will come by evening and give some thing to rejoice or remember. you can dispose off some old newspaper, get some money and buy some sweets for your better half. convey our birth day greeting to her and happy marriage anniversary.

hai ravisivan,you are really great.. thats the best idea.. already i could arrange money.otherwise i would surely do what u said..thanks

True love never needs a big thing to prove that it's really true. Your wife already knows that you are having problem about the budget. Why not make simple things but romantic. Just like surprise her something the first time she open her eyes. Or do things that you think it's really special for her and she couldn't forget it. If you want to ask her for a date, why not make it in your home. You can use candles to light your special night.

you could write her a poem, write down all the things you love about her, make her a nice card or you could take her on a picnic. gifts don't have to cost a lot of money.

Hiya sooraj., Love is the best present really but of course you want to be able to give her a present. Have you managed to find a way to get her a present? If not I am sure she has understood that hard times can hit anyone but things can get better and buy her something then if not. xxx

Well, in the meantime, my best wishes for your first wedding anniversary! Consequently, it is also fair to remember precisely the date of May 24 is the birthday of your sweet wife. This I say, two parties in just two days, so it seems obvious, to celebrate the whole, a unique gift. I have no idea what to advise them to give, however, in all ways something not too exaggerated, because from what you wrote in your thread, say clearly that when "your pockets are empty!" What matters in these circumstances is the thought, or even a simple gift, but the important thing is that since the heart!

sooraj: you are also from India - kerala. relax. this was situation when i was in your age. Get her Cadburys milk chocolate for Rs.5 or Rs.10 and take her to nearby temple. There if she likes wearing flowers you can spend Rs.10 and get her that. she will regard them more valuable. it is not the money that is required to make your wife happy.

Maybe get her a present that works for both days. Or at least a card for both. My birthday is two days from mother's day so when I have kids I imagine this will definately be a problem. I have a present this year to my mom that counted for her birthday which is also in May, and Mother's day as well because it was too expensive to do both. A card for both days works well though.

thats a good idea. i thought about card before. but my parents said that if i buy a gift it should be useful for her.

First of all, you are very sweet to think of a gift for your wife. Anyway, when it comes to gifts, you don't have to give material gifts for your anniversary and birthday. Perhaps you can make her breakfast or cook a romantic dinner for her. What is her favorite food? Perhaps that is what you should cook for her. Then you can decorate your place with some roses and have dinner by candlelight to add a romantic feel. You can also play romantic music. If you have a song that you both love, then you should include that in your playlist. If you feel that you must give her a material gift, then if it's a token make sure it is something that has meaning for the two of you and preferably something she can bring with her so she will always remember you. Advanced happy anniversary to you and your wife and happy birthday to her.

Oh dear,why are you embarrassed and remorse?Since your wife can understand you,what a happy matter it is!You don't need to give her expensive things,but you must have a good expression of your mind,i believe preparing a sumptuous dinner for her is more than enough!

well if they really love u than they didn't ask as a gift from u as per your pocket situation, so i suggest just give him a small flower with little kiss on that birthday and for wedding if u manage just go for dinner. well i see who love us they just like be always their at end of the life.

for the wedding anivesary write your own poem or words to express how much she is loved by you and remembering always the love to share with one another. make her your own love letter to keepsake . enjoy a wonderful meal at home together. on her birthday tell her again the birthday is meant to be a little older but never changeing the love for it will grow more ..express an old fashion birthday cake at home even a home made one.. make her a home made birthday card by you. with special love bithday poems..like I love you more as the days go by, because you are older you are always the same and never change, your beauty is always in my heart and mind. these things do not cost nothing but your time and everyone likes to be remembered in love and words go along way..hint some good pictures are nice as memories together and movies at home..romantic moments...

Wedding anniversary and Birthday - Happy anniversary and Happy Birthday cake...
Hmppp...a romantic song will make her happy.There is no need to give her a thing to make woman happy. You can bring her to walk and sing while holding her hands.She would appreciate that and find it sweet.If you know how to play guitar that will be more romantic. She will understand that your pocket is empty so you can't afford something for her this time.In your previous discussion you describe her as open minded, so she will surely understand.Spend time with her and do something special and cook a simple meal for you to share not necessary a luxurious celebration. Husband and wife will can always fit themselves in everything that would make their marriage work and shows how they love each other. Happy Anniversary with you both and please extend my greeting to your wife, a blessed happy birthday.
