Looking for ideas that don’t involve leaving the house, but are similar to our anniversary experience gifts in London? Good news - when it comes to romantic lockdown indoor activities, we’ve got it covered.
Just because we’re staying safe at home, doesn’t mean we should miss out on having fun - especially not when it comes to celebrating love! So, if you want to show your partner just how much they mean to you with a thoughtful experience as a gift - you should be able to do just that.
That’s why we’ve made a list of our favourite anniversary gift experiences for couples to enjoy at home together. From romancing by candlelight with a soy candle making kit to indulging in copious amounts of truffles with a chocolate making experience, here are our top choices:
1. Experience food from around the world with some cooking classes online
Postponed your trip to Asia? Why not spend your anniversary getting creative in the kitchen with an authentic Asian cooking course online? You’ll be able to travel through Japan as you roll your own sushi and then journey through China as you cook up fresh dumplings. Let the delicious flavours and fusions provide you with a little lockdown escapism.
Beginner cook? Don’t worry, you don’t have to be a Michelin Star chef to try a cooking class online with your partner. Our virtual cooking classes are often beginner-friendly and allow you to learn to cook online from the comfort of your own home with an expert chef whilst you enjoy some quality time with your partner. For carb-loving couples, there are Italian fresh pasta making classes and for alfresco-diners, there are outdoor BBQ cooking kits - so whatever you fancy, wherever you fancy, there’s a virtual cooking class waiting for you both.
After the online class, you’ll be able to put out a nice table cloth, light a few candles and enjoy your home-cooked food over a romantic dinner for two. When it comes to anniversary gifts for couples, this is a rather appetising option for a pair of foodie-lovers locked-down together!
2. Stare in each other’s eyes whilst enjoying some pottery at home
If you’re both creative and don’t mind getting a little clay-covered, a pottery starter kit and virtual class could be the perfect experience gift for you and your lover to enjoy on your special day.
You can choose from a range of pottery making online classes, including making your own vases, planters and cute candle holders. Even if you’ve never touched a lump of clay before in your life, our virtual classes and pottery at home kits will have you creating the perfect pieces of art within no time. Pottery is a unique way for couples to spend quality time together whilst learning new skills and let’s not forget it’s a super romantic activity too. When it comes to anniversary gifts for couples, this is one for when creativity is key.
3. Try some relaxing DIY crafts with a soy candle making kit and class
Romance is all about getting the right ambience and with a candle making experience, you can do just that. If you both enjoy trying something new, a soy candle making kit and virtual class could be perfect for you - especially if you’re looking for gifts for couples that will also give you some fun things to do at home on your anniversary.
Candle making is a lovely way to connect with your partner whilst creating something beautiful together. Whether you choose to make candles that are heart-shaped as a homage to your marriage or make your own signature scents for your DIY candle, this anniversary gift experience is a great way to bring you closer together and have you cosied-up with some homemade mood lighting. And if that doesn’t sound romantic enough? Candle making is also great for setting the mood for relaxation - so it could be just what you need after the stresses of everyday life to simply unwind and focus on enjoying each other’s company.
4. Treat your sweetheart to chocolate making kit and class on your anniversary
If you’re looking for anniversary gift ideas for a chocolate lover, don’t just give them another box of Cadbury’s Milk Tray, treat them to chocolate making class instead and give them the skills to create an infinite supply of chocolate!
With our selection of indulgent virtual classes, you can learn how to make your own chocolates whilst enjoying each other’s company (and the occasional taste-test).
Whether your partner loves the bitter taste of dark chocolate or the sweetness of white, there are plenty of options that are sure to melt their heat. So if you want anniversary gifts for couples that are both sweet and romantic, treat your partner to some hands-on creating of beautiful homemade chocolate truffles.
5. Celebrate your love with an evening of cocktail making
For the couple who would normally get dressed up and hit the town, why not stir up your lockdown anniversary with a virtual cocktail making class? You’ll still be able to get dolled up and drink your way through some chic concoctions, and if you really fancy it you can still order a tipsy takeaway afterwards! When it comes to lockdown anniversary gift experiences for couples, this is a night-out without the expensive taxi fare.
We all know that cocktails are a great way to get closer to one another, so if you’re looking for romantic gift ideas for couples, a DIY cocktails experience gift is certainly an alluring option (if you know what we mean!). No matter what your partner’s poison, there’s a cocktail kit for you both - whether you like classics such as cosmopolitans and mojitos, or enjoy more adventurous tastes like salted caramel espresso martinis.
If you prefer to stay away from alcohol we have some delicious alcohol-free DIY cocktail kits containing amazingly tasty artisanal spirits. Our cocktail making classes and DIY kits include all the ingredients and equipment needed for your lockdown evening of shaking, making and sipping. We think our cocktail making experiences are the best experience gifts for couples who want to celebrate their love by reliving their tipsy wedding day memories! So, if that’s you and your partner, what are you waiting for? It’s time to get shaking!
