As we slide into day infinity of lockdown, couples who had big plans for their anniversary are probably wondering how they can make this year, this most unique of all years, in fact, extraordinary. Sure, they still buy gifts for one another, they can make breakfast in bed, but within the confines of your four walls, it can be a little difficult to work out what to do, especially when it feels as if you’ve exhausted everything in the house.
It may be challenging, but it’s not impossible. All you need is a little imagination to make your anniversary as unique as these bizarre and frustrating circumstances allow.
Your Own Spa
Everyone deserves to be pampered, and now it feels like you deserve to be pampered more than ever before, so exploring home beauty treatments for you and your partner is a great way to start your anniversary.
If you’ve got a bath, you can squeeze yourselves in together with a face mask, light some candles, or make them do all the hard work with a massage. Put on some light harp-based music, dim the lights, and treat yourself with some bubbles and body lotion.
Summer Picnic
If you’re lucky enough to have a garden, you should make the most of it by having a couple’s picnic under the blue sky and the sun. You can go all out, with all the bread, meats, cheese, olives, strawberries and cream you like, while a bottle of champers wouldn’t go amiss.
If the weather’s pleasant enough, there’s always the chance for sunbathing and even lawn games, if you’ve got any on hand.
Bar Crawl
Ah, the bar crawl. Jumping from watering hole to watering hole, dealing with sticky floors and terrible tunes, and then moving onto the next. You may not be able to visit your favorite haunt, but you can still bring the atmosphere to you.
You can create a home bar crawl by setting up drink stations in different rooms. Start with a quick lager in the kitchen before graduating to cocktails and then make your way upstairs for beer pong and karaoke to finish off the night.
Hotel Casa
You couldn’t treat each other to a fancy hotel where you spent the entire time ordering copious amounts of room service, but that shouldn’t mean you can’t still get a sort-of-the-same-ish experience!
If you’ve got a spare room, one that is typically reserved for guests or when one of you snores, you can switch up your sleeping arrangements by spending a night there. It’s not the same as a hotel. In fact, it’s nowhere close to the same, but with a few mini bottles of booze and some clean sheets, it’s the best you’ve got.
Happy Anniversary!
While it’s definitely one of the most unusual anniversaries you’ll ever have, it also has the potential to be the most memorable. You don’t need to take each other on a globetrotting adventure or spend hundreds on a fancy meal, as long as you have one another, you’re able to celebrate your anniversary stuck inside your way.
