The thirteenth anniversary traditional gift is lace. Women buy that slinky, lacey lingerie for
men to enjoy! Okay, lace doilies, tablecloths and lacey curtains work too but they aren’t near as much fun.
The fourteenth anniversary calls for traditional gift of ivory. If you have big bucks this year splurge on a piano or a trip to Ivory Coast of Africa. The rest of us can enjoy ivory colored bed linen, scrimshawed ivory desk sets or key chains, ivory colored clothing or personalized ivory colored stationary.
Crystal is gift for fifteenth through nineteenth anniversaries. Crystal vases, decanters, candlesticks and crystal faced watches are very traditional. Crystal chandelier earrings or a crystal chess set are more up to date. Billy Crystal movies are fun.
Twentieth through twenty-fourth anniversaries traditional gift is china. Vintage china tea cups, bone china ornaments or a replacement piece for your own china are presents to consider along with a table for two at a Chinese restaurant or a trip to China.
Traditionally speaking, silver is gift for twenty-fifth through twenty-ninth anniversaries. Silver dated ornament, a silver frame, a watch, silver cufflinks, silver pen and jewelry are appropriate gifts. Anything from Tiffany's silver collection or an anniversary wedding band would be grand.
The thirtieth through thirty-fourth anniversaries traditional gift is pearls. Mother-of-pearl cufflinks, tie tack, frame and jewelry are wonderful gift ideas. Throw in an oyster dinner and you have an anniversary to remember.
Think tropical for thirty-fifth through thirty-ninth anniversaries gift of corral. Snorkeling, scuba lessons, a trip to Coral Reef or coral colored ties, cufflinks or clothing with a tropical flair.
Rubies are traditional gifts for fortieth through forty-fourth anniversaries. A dozen ruby-red roses, ruby jewelry (maybe add a ruby into your wedding bands), ruby red clothing or lingerie and a bottle of vintage wine are lovely gift ideas.
Forty-fifth through forty-ninth anniversaries traditional gift is sapphire. Sapphire tie clip, cuff links, jewelry, sapphire-colored apparel and Bombay Sapphire gin could be considered.
Gold is for fiftieth through fifty-fourth wedding anniversaries traditional gift. Without doubt gold jewelry or new wedding bands are in order. A gold themed party, golden oldie CD collection, gold watch, gold colored frames with a photo of couple, gold clock or gold fabric accent pieces for their bedroom are good choices.
A fifty-fifth through fifty-ninth anniversaries traditional gift is emerald. A few ideas could include a trip to Emerald Coast, emerald jewelry or cuff links and emerald colored night clothes.
The traditional gift for sixtieth through one hundredth wedding anniversaries are diamonds! For inspirational couple making it through life together they certainly deserve all diamonds they receive! To vary from year to year adding stone from couples’ favorite year of marriage would be lovely such as diamond and ruby earrings. Bring on diamond jewelry.
Tradition is wonderful and I hope this list helps in your anniversary gift choices. Many times these anniversary gifts end up as our family heirlooms of tomorrow.
