An anniversary celebrated with what you actually wanted

Whether it's ten years or fifty, the people who love you would rather know what you'd like than guess.

How it went

For Anna and Piero's twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, their children wanted to organize something big but had no idea what. They asked their parents to write a list: it turned out they wanted a weekend away and a few things for the garden, not another dinner service. The guests picked from the list, and the party left behind something that lasted.

How it works

  1. 1

    Write down what you'd like

    An experience, something for the house, an item you've been putting off for years. Things at very different prices, too.

  2. 2

    Share it with the people celebrating with you

    Children, friends, relatives: they open the link and see the list.

  3. 3

    Receive what you had in mind

    Everything reserved leaves the list, so nobody overlaps.

Why it's worth it

The people celebrating you stop guessing

For a big anniversary the pressure to get the gift right is high. A list takes it away.

Experiences count too

A weekend, a dinner, a course: it doesn't have to be an object.

Everyone joins in at their own level

With items at different prices on the list, nobody is put on the spot.

No duplicates

With a lot of guests the risk is real here too, and reservations remove it.

Before the party, say what you'd like

A few minutes, and the gift lands right.

What to give for an anniversary

Big anniversaries put gift givers in a difficult position: a couple who have been together for twenty-five or fifty years already have everything they need at home, and the gift risks being a commemorative object nobody will use. With PresentForMe the couple write down what they'd genuinely like, whether that's an experience, something for the house or an item they've been putting off, and share the list with a link. Guests reserve anonymously, so nobody overlaps, and everyone can choose based on what they want to spend without having to ask.
