what is the gift to get for a 22 anniversery?

According to Hallmark...Wedding Anniversary gifts are specified for each year up to the 15th.  After that, it basically gives something specific for every 5 years, 20th, 25th, etc. The 20th traditional gift is China and the Modern is Platinum.  The 25th traditional is Silver and the Modern is also silver.  I suggest a personalized engraved item or some type of jewelry (A new watch?). It really depends on the likes of the person. An engraved beer mug, a lighter, pen set or desk set.  Also, don't forget a great dinner somewhere. Maybe there's a show coming to town or concert and you could also get the tickets in advance  (Or give an IOU when they go on sale) and put them in a card. Whatever you do, enjoy yourselves.  It's not just about material things. Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS on keeping it together this long.

something tasteful and personal, but not too personal. Lik a gift basket or something. Don't give the female bath products. Try tea and cookies instead. For the guy, some small tech thing is usually welcomed. you can get nice stuff of this nature without spending too much, too. www.gifts.com can help, too

The newspaper idea (above) is actually pretty good... you could set up a time capsule together.  Get the day's newspaper, maybe some magazines.  Write letters to each other to be read on your 25th anniversarry.  Take some photos, stuff like that.  Seal it in a pretty container (like a large, attractive popcorn tin maybe?) and swear not to open it until your 25th.\n\n\nPaper could also mean:\n\nletters or poems\nbooks\ncoupons for good deeds\ngift certificate to a great restaurant (and a promise for a great date!)\nPlane tickets / hotel reservations for a trip\na deed for a great condo :-p  don't we all wish!

You could take out a classified ad in USA Today, that would \nreach many people. Perhaps an advertisement on CNN, worldwide coverage there. Time magazine, People, Peking News,\nlots of possibilities.\n\nAs far as a gift, he has you.....what more could he want.\n\nGood luck to you both.

One that is thoughtful and wouldn't normally buy myself. Take something that is happening with the person now. If someone was moving out for instance; maybe they'd like stuff to put in their new place. If someone recently graduated and is starting a new job, maybe a briefcase or engraved pen. Someone that is going on a trip in the new year may like new luggage, or a camera to take pix of the places they'd be visiting.

I would consider getting her two gifts - one that will last a lifetime to commemorate the event, like a nice necklace, rosary, or bible, and maybe something she will enjoy and appreciate now like a game or toy.

this year i got my boyfriend a really nice watch. i've framed pictures of us as a gift before. one time he gave me an engraved photo album filled with pics of us so you can try this too. make it something meaningful, maybe buy tickets for his favorite baseball team or a concert for a band he loves.

Get her a American Express gift card.  That way she can get what ever she wants.  I do that for my friends every year.  She'll like it! \n\nGood Luck, and Merry Christmas

You could give him a hand written card to thank him, being as specific as you can.  He might keep it and treasure it forever.

The customary notion would be to get her something she likes with a certain immediacy, like a gift certificate.  That is quaint.  To give a gift certificate or money, however, it won't be remembered years from now.\n\nOn the other hand, I believe that the best gift on the occasion of one's grauation is something lasting and memorable, and when she looks at it years from now, she will allways be reminded of the landmark occasion and of who gave it to her.  I also believe in giving very unique gifts.\n\nIn your city, do you have those companies that can take a 3D image of a person, and then carve it into a glass cube?  Here in Las Vegas, they are all over the place, particularly at shopping malls and casino resorts.  When one of my oldest friends visited here two years ago, she and I went and had a portrait of the two of us done.  We received a discount for having two made, so now we each have one to remind us of our 36-year friendship.  Our cubes cost about $120 for two.  O don't know your area, so I can't say for sure if it is available.  My thought was to borrow someone's cap and gown (unless she has hers already), and to roll up a tube and tie a ribbon around it.  Take her, along with these props, to have a beautiful portrait of herself done in a glass cube to commemorate her graduation.  Have a second one made to give to her parents.  This would be a wonderful, desirable, and unique gift!\n\nAlso, there are companies who will work from a photograph, without the subject needing to be present!  Have a headshot photo taken of her like a graduate, and send that in to be etched onto glass.  I was able to locate a mail order company in Pennsylvania that does this work.  With them, you can even add a special date or signature.  The cost is $99 for the first piece, and $19 for each duplicate:\n\nhttp://www.photo-etched.com/\n\n\nI also located a company that will do the laser portrait etching into a cube from your photograph!!!  (Wish we had that when my friend's sister was here.  I may do that with a photo of my mother, sister, and myself!)  The company is in Orlando, FL, and they also sell the lighted bases seperately:\n\nhttp://www.laserthis.com/3dHead.htm\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\nI know that you'd like to have the gift immediately, but if you'd like to give her one of these just do this.  Order the gift, and at the party, present her with a hand-made certificate (or one that you create off the computer) for a very unique and personalized gift from you, which is on order!  (If this doesn't help you now, perhaps you'll take advantage of it in the future, or someone else looking for a unique gift will enjoy it.)\n\nBest wishes!

a gift card maybe like a 25 dollar one,you don't know him too well so you don't want to spend too much but you don't know where this is going so you don't want to get him a 5 dollar gift either.you can put it inside a card that says you're glad to have meet him or something like that.or you can put it inside a nice picture frame that way you can box it and it looks bigger.
