Nothing shows love for your spouse more than a meal shared together. Compile your favorite meals that you've enjoyed together into a book or on recipe cards, to inspire nights in cooking at home—or to have as a keepsake in your kitchen.
"The gift can be given along with a promise to cook together at least once a week (or maybe every two) and reserve the time to connect with one another regularly," suggests Britt Cole & Francie Dorman of 42 North.
Couple's Journals
A straightforward idea that won't break the bank, gift each other monogrammed or personalized notebooks—with the promise to use them for something sentimental. Use these in daily life at the office for a sweet reminder of your partner, or journal your first year together as husband and wife. It may seem a bit over-the-top, but years down the line you'll enjoy going back and reading up on your memories as newlyweds.

Bonus points: Highlight the place you got married, and all the places you've traveled together, with a sticker or pin.
