Wedding Anniversary Gifts: 20 Meaningful Ideas for Your Wife, Husband and Parents, With Prices
A good wedding anniversary gift, or ของขวัญครบรอบแต่งงาน (wedding anniversary gift) in Thai, carries a wish for your life together and suits the person who receives it: your partner, your home or your parents.
Below are 20 ideas for your home, your wife, your husband and your parents, with our handmade pieces priced from 350 to 7,990 baht.
We are Macrame by Nicha, and our pieces are handmade by Akha women through Akha Ma-De, our social program that creates jobs in Asha village, Mae Yao district, Chiang Rai, and empowers the Akha community.
How to Choose a Wedding Anniversary Gift: 3 Questions
Three questions narrow the choice: who the gift is for, which wish it should carry, and how long you have before the date.
Who Is It For?
A gift for your home together is something you both see every day.
A gift for your wife or your husband can follow their own taste and habits.
For your parents' anniversary, the gift is a way to honour them, so they have their own section below. If you are celebrating a friend's wedding day, see our guide to Thai wedding gifts for guests.
Which Wish Should It Carry?
Many of our pieces carry their wish in their names: a long life together, a calm mind, the protection of your family or gratitude and blessings.
Choose the wish first, then the colour and the price.
How Long Do You Have?
Our pieces are handmade, so send us the date early. Lead times run from 5 to 10 working days for the keychains, The Brioche and the Malai Glin Rak to 10 to 20 working days for most other pieces.
If your date is close, start with the pieces ready in 5 to 10 working days.

For Your Parents' Wedding Anniversary
A พวงมาลัย (phuang malai, Thai garland) traditionally goes to parents, elders and teachers, and the Royal Society of Thailand notes that Buddhists bring garlands to pay respect to the elders they revere.
For your parents' anniversary, our cotton garlands carry that respect and stay with them long after the day. Here are three, each with its own wish.
