The fifth and tenth wedding anniversaries are some of the most meaningful milestone years, and are definitely ranked high in importance (along with the first year) among early anniversaries. When seeking the right gift to set the tone and express your affection, looking to old traditions that can be honored in new ways sometimes helps.

The fifth and tenth wedding anniversaries are some of the most meaningful milestone years, and are definitely ranked high in importance (along with the first year) among early anniversaries. When seeking the right gift to set the tone and express your affection, looking to old traditions that can be honored in new ways sometimes helps.

The ten-year anniversary is known as the "diamond" anniversary", which makes diamond jewelry an even better gift idea than usual.

The next major anniversary after the first year together is the five year anniversary, another occasion fitting for the gift of a five stone ring.

The five-year flower is the daisy, the color is pink, and the traditional gemstone that corresponds to the fifth anniversary is the sapphire, so a five stone ring or eternity ring incorporating blue, pink, or yellow sapphires into the design is also an especially thoughtful five year anniversary gift. Traditionally, the daffodil and the color blue are also associated with the 10-year anniversary, so a five stone ring with a yellow diamond or a diamond and blue sapphire eternity ring is a lovely and symbolic gift for this occasion.

How and when to give the gift for the best impression is also something to consider. Creating ambiance with a romantic dinner out or at home and perhaps sharing some port wine or mead (beverages traditionally linked to marriage and anniversary celebrations), or taking a trip somewhere new or to the place you had your first date can set the scene nicely for unveiling the beautiful jewelry you've chosen for the one you love.

The most important thing, of course, is that your anniversary is a time for happiness and joy at the love you've found in each other, and choosing the right gift is just one part of your celebration.
