Any suggestions of what I should get my wife for our 33rd wedding anniversary?
Don't want to be extravagant, just romantic and I have to have whatever it is by Sunday the 6th. :doh:
 
Wow 33 years congratulations! Maybe a gift certificate to a spa for a manicure or pedicure and cook dinner for her. I've been married for 15 years and I there is nothing I love more than when my husband cooks dinner for me.
 
Congrats! I myself always enjoy a nice dinner and flowers. Maybe even some jewelry. Just my :money:. Hope this helps.
 
What more could she possibly want Jerry.....she has you.:05:

:flowers:

And if that's what you tell her, don't count on making it to 34!

:doh:
 
Very nice Preco. The white letter message is cute. Being married 33 years means I know way better than to say something like that. :cool:
 
Jerry, have you ever been to the Water Club?
http://www.thewaterclub.com/

We went there for our anniversary once, it was really very nice. (A bit pricey, but well worth it.)
 
i just read that amethyst is the 33rd anniversary gift. i'm thinking jewelry...
 
Watch out, Clubby's thinking again! :teeth:

I would agree, though. A nice necklace with an amethyst pendant perhaps? Its always a romantic moment when you stand behind her, move her hair aside and clasp the new necklace.. Of course theres also something to be said for being able to look into her eyes while sliding a ring on her finger, or clasping a new bracelet.
 
oh LS, you're gonna make all of us girls melt... :love:
 
What can I say.. Im a hopeless romantic to a fault and a gentleman. Doesnt seem like thats what women want anymore...
 
hardly! they want that, just not all the b.s. when that romantic stuff goes away lol
 
hey, i'm busy conversatin' with our buddy....

maybe jerry can enlighten us with how to keep the romance alive for 33 years...
 
"re-create" your first date - the place you went to eat, rent the first movie you ever saw together, find an old love letter/note that you wrote to her and frame it, maybe take her to back to the place you first told her that you loved her...... Anything that brings back those old memories of when you first met or realized that you were in love.....nothing is more romantic than revisiting these first moments, it is your foundation - how this 33 years started.
 
Hummmm. Good idea but the first movie was Westworld where Yul Brynner plays a run-away cowboy robot. Oddly it wasn't a great date. In fact we determined that we had nothing in common and ended the night with a handshake.

How we finally did get together a few months later is another story but it involves ships, a cook-out on deck, too much beer (on my part - she's a tea tottler (see "nothing in common") and led us to San Francisco where we were married in the harbor. Pretty romantic.

The latest on anniversary 33 is that she calls me today and says we have something to celebrate Saturday to which we had to remind her the correct date as being Sunday. She thinks the anniversary is May 5th but it's the 6th and she thinks our daughter was born April 7th but it's the 9th. Oh well.

Anyhow, I had thought that she would totally forget and I could surprise her but she didn't so I said, "how about dinner" so we are doing that fer sure. And I really like the looks of the Water Club and since one of us is still a tea tottler and the other isn't (still nothing in common after all these years ;) ) we can probably skate by with a reasonable dinner tab because of no drinks. I can practically walk to The Water Club from Hell's Kitchen. Nice suggestion Preco.

I'll have to analyze how to stay together for 33 years and will let you know. My sister and brother-in-law are celebrating their golden (50th) this year (they want to take a carriage ride in Central Park and maybe have me renew their vows since I'm a minister) but to sum up their secret, it's "unconditional love". As long as you have that, anything can be forgiven. And the way they started was that 50 yrs ago they "had" to get married. Dad wasn't pleased and knew it would never last. My parents also were together till death they did part. Maybe it's in the genes.
 
Jewelry, GC to the spa, tickets to a concert, a book of memories that guys have spent
 
Help! I've been marrried 33 years

Definitely, flowers (cut or potted), dinner and a show. Congratulations on your 33 years.:)
 
The dinner and evening spent together sounds very nice. Try to surprise her with something now. Write her a poem or make her a card yourself and write a poem in it. That would be special. :o

It can be free verse. It does not need to rhyme. :)
