More the years of marriage, more expensive the anniversary gifts tend to be!!

Giving anniversary gifts to a couple celebrating their wedding anniversary is one way of showing one's respect, love and lasting relationship. Traditionally anniversary gifts would be selected based on the number of years the couple is married.

In the olden days the wedding anniversaries were given certain names - like paper for the first wedding anniversary, cotton for the second wedding anniversary etc., The anniversary gifts would be based on the materials symbolized by the number of years the couple are married. So the anniversary gifts for a first wedding anniversary would be any items made of paper or paper based materials. The selection of anniversary gifts for 5th wedding anniversary would be any item made of wood for 10th wedding anniversary, one would look for anniversary gifts made of tin.

As the number of years the couple is married increases, so is the value of the material of the anniversary gifts. For 25th wedding anniversary, it would be silver and for 50th wedding anniversary, it would be gold. Say, one is looking for selection of anniversary gifts to his/her parents who are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. Would anyone stop short of buying anniversary gifts made of diamond! Well, that's the traditional way to celebrate this happy occasion!
