12 Most Romantic Anniversary Sex Ideas

An anniversary is a great opportunity to have some amazing sex! A milestone for you and your partner, such as an anniversary, is worth celebrating with extra fun in the bedroom. While you certainly want to obtain your partner’s consent, part of the fun with an anniversary is the surprise gift and something unexpected.

As well as you know your partner, here are some anniversary sex ideas you can enact to eliminate old habits and regular rhythms and turn sex into something inspired and extra passionate.

Anniversary Sex Idea #1: Flirty, Romantic Texts

It is up to you regarding how sexual you want to make these, but sending flirty, romantic texts throughout the day can amp up the sex to come later in the evening. It’s Foreplay 101. There are many creative ways to let your partner know you’re also thinking of them.

Anniversary Sex Idea #2: Experiment with a New Sex Toy

Hundreds of adult sex toys are out there. If you don’t already engage with sex toys in couples play, ask your partner if they want to. There are sex toys specifically made for couples.

However, any sex toy can be adapted to a coupled sexual situation. Blending one or two in can add a whole new dynamic into the mix and enhance the overall experience for both partners.

Anniversary Sex Idea #3: Plan a Romantic Getaway

Plan for an entire weekend if a single date doesn’t do it. You don’t have to go far. Rent a hotel room in a neighbouring city an hour or two away. Get out of the roles and responsibilities you normally carry at home and surround yourself in a new environment.

Without the stresses of home burdening you and your partner, you may be surprised by how easy it is to let go and focus on each other more.

Anniversary Sex Idea #4: Alter the Bedroom Atmosphere

Make your ‘anniversary bedroom’ something special. Light some candles. Add mood with a slow, sexy playlist that aligns with your and your partner’s musical tastes. Make the environment feel warm, welcoming, and naturally sexual.

Anniversary Sex Idea #5: Take a Bath or Shower Together

Getting naked in front of your partner and being under a warm stream of water illuminates the senses. If you prefer a bath, sitting with your partner in the steamy tub and pampering or helping them wash their body is another very intimate way to foster connection, bonding, and sexual anticipation.

Anniversary Sex Idea #6: Give Each Other a Massage

A sweet, sensual massage can help ease someone into sex and relaxation in a way that nothing else can. This can blend in with lit candles and scented oils and create a romantic playlist. You don’t need to be a massage expert, either. Touching a partner’s body is enough to release some endorphins and build anticipation for what’s to come.

Anniversary Sex Idea #7: Entertain Fantasies

Talk to your partner before the anniversary sex. Ask them if there are any fantasies, positions, sex toys, or scenarios they want to try that they haven’t yet. An anniversary is a great opportunity to go wild on each other and pursue the best sex, allowing you both to indulge and engage in your most orgasm-inducing fantasies.

Anniversary Sex Idea #8: Try on a New Outfit

Lingerie. Roleplaying. Dressing up nicely to go out and share a date. Putting on a new outfit and gaining confidence can work wonders at reinvigorating one’s sex life. It also adds a nice layer on top of anniversary sex, allowing you or your partner to pursue something you haven’t done before.

Anniversary Sex Idea #9: Play a Fun Sex Game

There are lots of fun sex games you can find online, including your fairly basic truth or dare to special card games and sex coupons. If you’re inclined to make your anniversary as fun as possible, this might be a particularly fun way to get out of both of your comfort zones and try something new.

Anniversary Sex Idea #10: Experiment with New Positions

There are many ways to look up sex positions you may not normally try. From the kama sutra to online articles and apps, find a list of sex positions you can read through with a partner. Find some that appeal to you and give them a whirl as a part of your anniversary sex.

Anniversary Sex Idea #11: Take Them Out on a Date

A date is an opportunity to focus exclusively on each other while also engaging in foreplay for what’s to come. A sexy touch here, a comment there, a quick pose, or even a sexy text message mid-dinner is a nice flirty way to get the energy flowing before you reach the bedroom.

Anniversary Sex Idea #12: Try Some Light BDSM

Unless you or your partner are already into BDSM, you don’t want to jump in without discussing it first and testing the waters with light restraints, soft spanking, or similar tactics.

Even tying them up can be quite fulfilling without doing much more. However, consent and conversation are key to ensuring you and your partner are okay with what will happen.
