Silver Anniversary Gift Basket Ideas

Also commonly called the silver anniversary, the 25th wedding anniversary marks a full quarter of a century that a couple have spent together. This milestone anniversary is often celebrated alongside the couple’s closest family and friends. Gift baskets are a popular anniversary present because they provide gifts that a couple can share and enjoy together.

Wine Basket

A gift basket filled with an assortment of wines and wine accessories is an appropriate idea for a couple celebrating their silver anniversary. Fill the basket with one bottle of white wine, one bottle of red wine, and an assortment of wine accessories. A cheese log with gourmet crackers, a wine stopper, a cork screw and a set of wine glass charms are all things you can use to fill the basket. Print out custom wine labels for the bottles that are printed with the couples name and anniversary date.

Breakfast in Bed Basket

Treat the couple to a gourmet breakfast they can enjoy together the morning of their anniversary. English muffins, fruit preserves, fresh coffee beans, a sample set of hot teas, scones and crumpets can all be used to fill the basket. This way, the couple have several options to choose from. You can create custom labels for the fruit preserve jars on your home computer. Have them printed with a random fact about the couple.

Italian Dinner Gift Basket

Fill a gift basket with a bottle of Italian wine, a package of noodles, a loaf of Italian bread, a jar of pasta sauce and a package of dessert cannolis will provide the couple with everything they need to prepare a romantic meal together. To add a unique touch that will complement the theme, store the contents inside of a stainless-steel strainer instead of a traditional wicker basket. You can also place a set of taper candles to provide them with candle light for their anniversary dinner.

Coffee Break Gift Basket

If the couple are coffee enthusiasts, a basket filled with different flavors and accessories is an appropriate gift. Fill the basket with a breakfast blend coffee, a dessert blend coffee, and an exotic blend coffee. You can also include individually wrapped coffee cakes, scones or biscotti in the basket. To add a personalized touch and commemorate the anniversary, finish the basket with two personalized coffee cups. Have each cup printed with one of their names alongside their anniversary date.

Sentimental Silver

To commemorate a silver anniversary, an all-silver basket is an idea to consider. Fill a silver ice bucket with a silver plate engraved with the couples names, a silver vase filled with roses, silver candles, a silver photo frame and a pair of matching silver goblets.

25 Things

Have 25 of the couple’s close friends and family contribute one item to the gift basket that is special to the couple. Items could include their mutual favorite snack, an old film they saw together, a mix CD with some of their favorite songs, and two copies of one of their favorite books.
