Traditional Wedding Anniversary Gifts by Year

Summer is wedding season—which means many anniversaries are taking place over the summer months. There are traditional wedding anniversary gifts given on certain milestones. For example, the 1st wedding anniversary gift is represented by paper, the 5th wedding anniversary milestone gift is represented by wood, and so on.

A customer recently notified us they were gifting our Silver Perfect Moment Sculpture to their partner for their 25th “Silver” anniversary gift and we loved the idea so much we wanted to pass it on!

Here are the wedding anniversary gifts by year -- as well as some gift suggestions for your special day!


1st Anniversary: Paper

Paper symbolizes the fragility of the early stages of a marriage, however with proper care paper can last a lifetime. 


5th Anniversary: Wood

Wood is the traditional 5th wedding anniversary gift because, like a tree, you have grown strong roots that can endure any weather.


7th Anniversary: Copper

The traditional 7th anniversary wedding gift is copper because of its strength and the warmth it radiates, like your marriage.

Our best-selling sculpture, Copper Perfect Moment, is a great gift idea and is something you will enjoy together for years to come.

 

Also available in a Flat Base option:



8th Anniversary: Bronze

Even stronger than iron and copper, bronze symbolizes the ever-growing strength of your bond.  What better way to show your endless love than with a modern timekeeper hand-painted with warm bronze tones?

10th Anniversary: Aluminum


Aluminum is strong but flexible and can withstand anything-- which is why it is the symbol for the 10th wedding anniversary milestone.  

Our metal art makes the ideal 10th anniversary gift.  All of our artwork is handmade from high-grade aluminum so you can enjoy your art for years to come.
