Why send a letter
Literally the traditional gift
Paper for year one isn't our idea - it's the oldest anniversary tradition there is. A letter honours it perfectly.
Year one deserves a record
First home, first fights, first everything as a married couple. Write it down before the details fade.
Start the annual letter
Many couples write one letter a year. In a decade you'll have a shelf of your own history - it starts now.
Start from a heartfelt sample
Borrow a line, or let it spark your own words. Our writing assistant can help you finish.
One year ago we promised forever in front of everyone we know. This year taught me forever is built in small pieces - shared breakfasts, silly fights, your hand finding mine. Happy first anniversary. I love the life we're building.
Nobody warned me marriage would mean learning you all over again - the morning you, the tired you, the you who sings badly and cooks worse. I love every version. Happy anniversary, my favourite person.
365 days married, and my biggest discovery: you steal blankets like it's a profession. I'd still sign up for a lifetime of cold nights next to you. Happy first anniversary.

Can it arrive exactly on the anniversary date?
Scheduled delivery lets you choose the day we POST it, and the likely arrival window is shown beside it. For standard delivery, order about a week ahead.
Why is paper the first-anniversary gift?
The tradition holds that a first-year marriage is like paper - new, full of promise, ready to be written on. A letter is the tradition at its most literal and most personal.
What is the best paper anniversary gift for a first wedding anniversary?
A handwritten letter is the paper gift that actually says something - 699 on 100gsm premium cream paper, posted to your partner anywhere in India. Frames and prints are paper too, but they are not in your handwriting.
What to write in a first wedding anniversary letter to my partner?
Write down year one before it blurs: the first place you lived, the first argument, the thing about married life that surprised you. In ten years this letter will be the only record of those details.
How do we start the tradition of writing one letter every anniversary?
Write year one now and keep it in the same box each time. Couples who do this end up with a shelf of their own history, one page a year, in each other's handwriting.
Can we both send each other a first anniversary letter?
Yes - many couples order two separately and open them together on the day. Use scheduled delivery so both land on the same date.
Can I add a photo from our wedding to the first anniversary letter?
Yes - up to 10 printed photos, square 3x3 inches or 2.3x3.5 inches. One wedding photo and one from ordinary married life this year makes the point better than either alone.
How far in advance should I order a first anniversary letter?
Order about a week ahead for comfort. Scheduled delivery lets you choose the day we post it, with the likely arrival window shown as you pick.
What if I'm not good with words?
Start from the samples on this page, or use our free writing assistant to shape your thoughts. You approve every word before it ships.
Can I make it feel more special?
Add a wax seal or scented paper, and up to 10 printed photos (50 each) - a then-and-now photo pair works beautifully for anniversaries.
