Traditional Vs Modern Wedding Anniversary Gift
I have been married for 5 years and I just realized that hubby and I we never celebrated in the 5 years of being together so which got me thinking what are the traditional gifts and guess the is now modern gifts hence the traditional vs modern wedding anniversary gift.
When it comes to something’s I really appreciate tradition, therefore I will stick to the traditional way of doing things.
Anniversary Traditional Modern
1st Paper Clocks
2nd Cotton China
3rd Leather Crystal/Glass
4th Fruit/Flower Appliances
5th Wood Silverware
6th Candy/Iron Wood
7th Wool/Copper Desk Sets
8th Potter/Bronze Linens/Lace
9th Willow/Pottery Leather
10th Tin/Aluminium Diamond Jewellery
11th Steel Fashion Jewellery
12th Silk/Linen Pearls
13th Lace Textile Furs
15th Animals Gold Watches
20th Crystal Watches
25th China Platinum
30th Pearl Diamond
35th Coral Jade
40th Ruby Ruby
45th Sapphire Sapphire
50th Gold Gold
60th Diamond Diamond
So after comparing the lists there is one traditional gift I will swap with modern gift that is the 15 years anniversary gift I am not an animal person so I would prefer the gold watch instead.The modern gift diamond appears three times well diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
So are you a traditional or modern or a little bit of both? When it comes to celebrating your wedding anniversary.

We usually celebrate our anniversary on a baseball field. If we are lucky, we both can be at the same baseball field and share an anniversary slushie from the concession stand! haha! So that would be under the modern parent category?
