Go to your First Date Location
Let’s be honest, it is quite difficult to remain original with wedding anniversary presents when you get to your fourth one. So, if you have already bought flowers and all of these gifts before, why not take a trip down memory lane? You can take your partner to the place you had your first date. Perhaps this was a café or restaurant. You can arrange to go there and have some fun. This is a good way to rekindle the romance and remember how exciting it was when you first met. Your partner is going to love this type of gesture and it can show that you have put some thought into your 4th wedding anniversary.
Bake a Cake Together
Everybody loves cake, so you can spend your 4th wedding anniversary making a special one for your celebration. Whether you love lemon drizzle or are a fan of chocolate, it can be fun to spend this time with your partner. What’s more, you can enjoy the cake together afterward. You can get creative and bake a cake that you can give out to family members too. This is going to go down well if you are having a gathering or celebration with others. Make sure you find a good recipe and get all the ingredients in advance.

Look at Wedding Photos
Looking back at memories is always fun. So, why not do that for your 4th wedding anniversary? It is time to get out the wedding album and spend some time looking through them together. You can reminisce and remember the special day, perhaps remembering details you had forgotten about before. You can grab a glass of wine and enjoy the moment, remembering the day and how great it was. Of course, you can also look back on what you have achieved since then.
Watch the Sunset
When you are busy working or if you have young children, it can be difficult to find time for the small things in life. But, often they are the best. For your wedding anniversary, make time to watch the sunset. This is a beautiful and colorful event that you can watch every evening. But, think about the last time you actually sat down and watched it happen. You can sit with your partner and watch a sunset to spend time together and you can make it romantic. Do not forget a glass of wine or to dine al fresco for this one.
Complete a Wedding Puzzle
Do you and your partner love to play games together? Well, you can arrange a fun game night to celebrate your 4th wedding anniversary. But, instead of playing the same games, you can always purchase a custom wedding puzzle. You can choose any wedding photo that you like and have it made into a puzzle. This can be a fun activity you can enjoy together with your partner, piecing together your wedding photo. Plus, it is a puzzle that you can keep for the future too.
Arrange a Surprise Party
If you really want to have a celebration for your 4th wedding anniversary then there is one thing that you have to do. You have got to throw your partner a surprise party. It is time to get out the address book and invite all of your close friends and family. You can have this gathering at your home or book a venue. This is going to be a wonderful surprise and a fantastic way to spend your 4th wedding anniversary. You can socialize and dance the night away with each other, forgetting the stress of everyday life.
