Traditional wedding anniversary gifts:
Comparison with modern wedding anniversary gifts
In the past traditional wedding anniversary
gifts were selected based on the number of years the couple is married.
Each wedding anniversary was given a specific
name to identify and recognize the number of years the couple are married.
Traditional wedding anniversary gifts were selected mainly from the material the
anniversary was named after. For example the traditional wedding anniversary
gifts for the first wedding anniversary for a couple would be made of paper or
paper based material.
As years passed by, the traditional wedding
anniversary gifts were replaced by more modern anniversary gifts and a list
