Four years down and a lifetime to go! It's time to celebrate your fourth anniversary, but what should you get your spouse? If you prefer to follow tradition, the established 4th-anniversary gift are fruit and flowers—which are meant to represent the blossoming of your relationship and the beauty that comes with sticking by each other’s side through thick and thin.

"The fourth year is about being in full bloom," says event designer Jung Lee. She adds that it's nice to follow the sentiment and the theme "with an inventive gift that has fruits or florals included in its design."

If you want to go with a more modern gift, opt for an appliance. The timing of this gift theme is perfect because, at the four-year mark, you might be ready to replace some registry favorites. Whether you stick to the themes or go in your own direction (that's fine too!), it's important to consider your partner's interests and tastes. Opt for something thoughtful, or go the practical route with something they'll use in their daily life.

To help you find the perfect gift for your sweetheart, we've researched and narrowed down our top picks. For something sentimental and sweet, we love The Bouqs Flower Bouquet or the Statement Goods Strawberries Fruit and Kitchen Art Print. Want to up the ante on at-home date nights? Go with the Cuisinart CFO-3SS Electric Fondu Maker or the Imperia Pasta Machine.

Read on for the best fourth-anniversary gifts.

What to Look for in 4th-Anniversary Gifts

  • Quality and Thoughtfulness: When shopping for something special for your favorite person, it's important to put some thought into the decision. You want to show them you listen and care about their interests! You can never go wrong with something sweet and sentimental, especially since the traditional fourth-anniversary gift is fruit and flowers. Bonus points if you personalize the gift! On the other hand, a practical gift you know they'll love is a also good way to go. First, think about high-quality gifts that they'll actually use and love in their everyday lives or something that you two can do together. For instance, if you're a couple who loves cozy date nights at home, the Crispy Crust Pizza Maker is a foolproof pick.
  • Romance: "Let's not forget the romance," says Lee. "It could be anything from aromatherapy for your bedroom to rose-engraved Champagne glasses to toast you! I also love surprise gifts for each other with a beautiful handwritten note on cotton paper. Everyone knows I love a good handwritten note!"
  • Delivery Window: You don’t want to miss your special day because of shipping delays or designated shipping windows where the package arrives after your anniversary. As always, order gifts online with some wiggle room before the big day. In the case of anniversary gifts, take note that customization may take longer than standard orders so if you ordered something like the flowerly | PRESSED floral bouquet or Minted Marvelous Flowers Puzzle by Sumak Studio without rush shipping factor in enough time for delivery before your anniversary date.
