Traditional gifts go beyond cards and chocolate...... Most anniversary years have been assigned a specific "traditional" gift material, such as Gold, Silver, Coral, or Copper. Giving an anniversary gift made of these materials is said to bring good luck. Traditionallly speaking, if you wish to give an anniversary gift you should give a gift that is made of the material that corresponds with the number of years that the couple has been married. Lists providing you with the traditional gift material for each year is readily available online. For the "odd" years that have not been assigned a traditional gift material, there is a "modern" anniversary gift material that has been assigned to every year from 1st Anniversary through the 70th Anniversary (if one is lucky enough to reach that great milestone)!
Housewarming: generally something for the home, be it a lamp, clock, throw blanket, or vase. Get Well: usually flowers, a homemade food dish, and "Hope You Fell Better Soon" card. Just-Broke-Up-With-Boyfriend/Girlfriend: Girls'/Buddies' Day Out. Depending on the gender, either a spa & shopping day or sports & beer hang out time all arranged by you as a pick-me-up. Birthday: gift cards, money, or anything personal that you know they like. For Anything Else: if you're in a store and spot something that they would love and isn't too spendy, pick it up and make their day.
== == Appropriate anniversary gift giving for the first, fifth, tenth, fifteenth, twentieth, twenty-fifth and fiftieth years of marriage. Gifts in the early years of marriage were small remembrances, or tokens, such as paper (1st), wood (5th), and tin (10th). In later years of matrimony, gifts gained value, including crystal (15th), china (20th), silver (25th) and gold (50th). The light-hearted nature of early anniversary gift giving, saying "the paper, wooden and tin presents are seldom anything but jokes but, still mean something to many people. Crystal is the earliest that is likely to be taken seriously by the gift-bearers." {| ! Year |} {| ! Traditional |} {| !
