Throughout the year, birthdays, anniversaries, Friendship Day, Valentine’s Day, Diwali, New Years and many festivals and special occasions arise when you need to select a gift for “him” or “her”. Of course, when selecting a special wedding anniversary gift for your wife, you should be more careful about her preferences.

However, there are different things that one should consider when choosing a gift for the opposite sexes. Women love gifts when it comes as a surprise and that’s a clue to keep in mind when planning an anniversary or romantic occasion.
