[10 Year Anniversary Gift Ideas]

One thing that looks really amazing is certain custom-made decorative props. Maybe look into getting him some sort of replica from the games, I know small-time artists on Etsy do them, or you could get something official from Tri-Force, they make some sweet Plasma Rifles.

 

Posters and stuff are also neat, so, keep that in mind.

 

Awesome post to see, I am amazed that you two would have such a love for each other and for this game. Hope everything pans out well. 

 

He only has one replica I bought for him for one of the many holiday's we had haha. I will definitely look into more replicas! Thank You!

 

I don't know what poster he doesn't have haha. He usually goes to buy them as soon as they come out.....Maybe I should finish one of my digital drawings so he can have a personal one of a kind poster...or printed on a gallery canvas AND get him a replica. 

 

Haha, thank you  It's surprising, when we met in High School he had no clue that I knew about Halo and played more than him (at that time). He was going on about Halo 2 when I was already at 3 hahaha I didn't tell him until I bought him a special edition copy.

Was not expecting to see a post like this haha. What an  awesome relationship!

 

It's a bit of a weird idea, but you could try to have a head mould of your significant other made, and then use that to order a custom-made Master Chief helmet?     

 

hahaha I know, its not a topic that is normally discussed on forums. I told him I reached to the interwebs for ideas and he started laughing. He thinks I'm on reddit asking people for ideas mwhahahaha

 

haha that's actually a good idea, he wouldn't ask why I'm molding his head...I have done it before for a piece I made. I do have a friend that goes to comic-con in a new custom/self-made Spartan suit every year.

 

I will definitely give it some thought

Have you done T-shirts?

 

Get Halo Font, maybe "Her Master Chief" and "His Cortana" with an Installation/Ring in the background or something Halo-esque. 

(I'm sure a Graphic Design place could do this easily for you.)

 

If all else fails, you can totally just buy him a Gun Prop of his favorite weapon?

 

That I haven't done yet.... I was saving that for our honeymoon. But, you did give me an idea of how I wanted the shirts haha, I was stuck on that one for a bit. 

 

I can definitely design that and get it printed. Thank You!!!

 

 

hahaha right, I would just have to be creative with the delivery of said items. A few people have sent me links to places that sell the replica's. I even found an airsoft gun that is a replica of the assault rifle (his favorite weapon).

Hello Shisno's,

 

 

Strange topic for this site, I know. I only signed up because I wanted to reach out to the Halo community to get my brain flowing with ideas. I am celebrating a 10 year anniversary with my significant other in September. He is a HUGE Halo fan (as most of you are haha). I have played all of the games (I started before he did) and I know much about the story and background (thanks to him talking about it). We (un-originally) call each other Master Chief and Cortana. It fits me perfectly because I kind of look like her: hair style, voice modeled after a doctor, facial structure, skin tone…you know ……live in a helmet attaching to neuropathways XD

 

 

ANYWAY….stupidity aside

 

 

For ten years I have planned every gift/celebration to the minute (my-nute) detail, but, my brain is pooped and I have lost my creative mojo (or just used up all the good gift ideas). Last year for our 9^th anniversary, I was able to get him to meet Jen Taylor and Steve Downs with signatures, pictures and all. I feel like I topped out on my gifts for him…..I have given him everything awesome/thoughtful that you can think of. I want to do something simple….but I also want to do something memorable for our 10 year anniversary 

 

 

 

SO, I went to Halo Waypoint to shop…..I literally put almost everything in the cart (by the way, money is not a barrier, no children, high paying jobs, secure assets/finances = more spending). But I feel it doesn’t have the same weight I want to deliver.

 

 

I am also an artist and thought of making a picture….but I have done that already…several times. One idea I had, was, to combine all our geeky identifiable couples into one and have it form a favorite picture of ours that we took at Disneyland….. I always try to throw something deeply personal into my gifts/surprises. After all these years he should know by now that I like to deceive with materials or events.

 

 

I also thought “343 STUDIOS!”  but, I did research and saw that you have to be invited or something like that 

 

 

 

I want it to be halo inspired. If any of you can provide some ideas, that would be awesome! I am still going to make it personal, that part is not for anyone to plan or think of. I just need a little kick to get my creative juices going.
