Anniversaries are considered as days where an event is commemorated or celebrated for something memorable which happened on that same day as the initial event. In the case of wedding anniversaries, many couples find it a time to remember the day they took their wedding vows and can choose to celebrate the event in a lavish way with friends and families, or where they can spend it together in the solace of each others company. Whatever way the couple chooses, here are a few important anniversary years and gifts that are usually given to commemorate each special year.
1st Anniversary:
Traditional Gift: Paper – It symbolizes the strength in paper that comes from the interlaced connection of the paper’s individual threads.
Modern Gift: Clocks - Henry Van Dyke wrote, “For those who love, time is eternity.”
5th Anniversary:
Traditional Gift: Wood - The strength of a marriage bond is represented by the traditional gift of wood. Wood is strong and long-lasting.
Modern Gift: Silverware - The modern gift of silverware is a reminder of the connection couple formed as they shared meals with each other and their children (if any).
10th Anniversary:
Traditional Gift: Gold – Optimism and wealth are often associated with gold. Not only is the metal gold beautiful, it is strong, and resistant to corrosion.

As mentioned, there are several ways to celebrate one’s anniversary; however, one popular and common theme is to renew your vows on that special day, as a reminder of what brought the couple together in the first place. When throwing a party, try to keep its décor in context with the symbols that represent the anniversary. For instance, make use of lots of silver glitter, plates and so on during a 25th wedding anniversary. Another way to make things interesting is to make plans to travel someplace new and exciting. Explore sights and sounds that have never been seen or heard of and it’s a sure way to rekindle or stoke the flames of a relationship. Other fun ideas include compiling a CD of music from that year of marriage, creating an anniversary scrapbook showing pictures of family and friends including couple.
