Anniversary
gift ideas - traditional or modern?
Traditionally wedding anniversaries were named like Paper, cotton, leather,
wood, silver, gold, emerald etc., Each of these names were indicative of the
number of years the couple were married. Based on this, the anniversary gift
ideas were centered on material gifts made of the specific material the wedding
anniversary was referring to. For example the anniversary gift ideas for a
couple celebrating their first wedding anniversary would be any item made of
paper. Similarly the anniversary gift ideas for 5th wedding anniversary were
centered on items made of wood.
To honor
couple celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary, one looked for anniversary
gift ideas that would end up in a material gift made of silver. More the number
of years the couple are together, the more expensive the anniversary gift ideas
would be, as the previous metals become the choice. For example, for the 40th
wedding anniversary, the metal considered would be Ruby and the anniversary gift
ideas for the 50th wedding anniversary would be gold and diamond for the 60th.
As years
passed by, people have started looking for anniversary gift ideas centering on
gifts that would be more tangible, practical and memorable. For older couple,
one of the tangible anniversary gift ideas that are considered now is a romantic
holiday!
